Technically yes. The Titanic ran into an iceberg. The Titanic was built to withstand a head-on collision with an iceberg however it ran into the berg from the side which tore a hole into the hull. . .

It is speculated that the Titanic would not have sunk if she ran straight into the iceberg however this is merely a speculation because it is impossible to go back in time and change it. . .

The Titanic sank because the end of it was so far out of the water that the ship could not take the pressure so it split.
