Titanic was heavier than any other ship of the time, thus making it the largest ship in the world. It had a NEARLY identical sister ship called the Olympic, which was the same size, but several tons lighter. Therefore, Titanic was the biggest ship in the world, because it was heavier than any other ship.

The Titanic passengers did not climb on the iceberg because it was too slippery and dangerous to do so. The iceberg was also much larger and taller than the ship, making it difficult for passengers to reach and climb onto. Additionally, the iceberg was cold and icy, posing a risk of hypothermia if anyone attempted to climb on it.
