The lookouts on the Titanic are not solely to blame for the ship's sinking. While it is true that they failed to spot the iceberg in time to avoid a collision, there were multiple factors that contributed to the disaster, including the captain's decision to maintain a high speed in icy waters, inadequate safety measures such as not providing enough lifeboats for all passengers, and a lack of clear communication between the crew members. Blaming the lookouts alone oversimplifies the complex series of events that led to the Titanic tragedy.
You might not know that all six lookouts survived the sinking of Titanic.
There were several lookouts that rotated shifts; at the time of the sinking, there were two on duty on the main look-out post.
No. Most of the crew died in the accident.
The lookouts on Titanic spotted the iceberg with less than forty seconds to impact.

Titanic employed six lookouts (in shifts of two-at-a-time) and incredibly, all six lookouts survived).
The lookouts were the crew. There were no class distinctions for the crew of Titanic.

The captain was to blame. The lookouts had warned him of an iceberg straight ahead, however the captain refused to slow down from 25.3 mph. There are a few people to blame. Some people say Bruce is because he was said to be pressurising the captain and a passenger's letter said that the captain was drunk when it hit the iceberg.
no they were not to blame
There were two lookouts, but I am not sure of their names... LOL

No. Most of the crew died in the accident.
Titanic's sinking was not the fault of the engineers. It was not the fault of the Captain, nor the lookouts nor the crew.
There was no letter but the lookouts did use the in-house telephone system to inform the bridge.
The iceberg that sank the Titanic was spotted just before the collision by two of the ship's lookouts, Fred Fleet and Reginald Lee.
