How long into the titanic did the boat crash?

Answer 1

Titanic lasted two hours and forty minutes after the collision before she went below the surface of the Atlantic - and it's believed that the bow and stern took about 5-6 minutes to fall until they crashed on the seabed.

Answer 2

The Titanic was sunk by a collision with an iceberg, not with another ship.

The 'berg did not penetrate her hull very much- it is now thought that it punched a hole in it rather than tore a gash. It put just enough pressure on her hull plates to burst the rivets and cause a 300ft section of the front starboard bow to collapse inwards. If it entered the hull at all, it would only have been by about 3 or 4 inches at the most.

Answer 3

Titanic crashed into an iceberg at 11:40 PM on April 14th 1912 and sunk at 2:20 AM on April 15th.

That's two hours and forty minutes.

Answer 4

The lookouts only spotted the berg with less than forty seconds till impact.
