Today ships have radars that see through night and fog, making it possible to avoid ice bergs.
Titanic's collision with the iceberg was about 400 miles south of Newfoundland.
The Titanic collided with the iceberg at 11:40 PM and sank at 2:20 AM. It took 2 hours 40 minutes for the ship to completly sink.
Titanic stayed afloat for two hours and forty minutes after the collision with the iceberg.
The captain was not present at the time of the collision but the First Officer DID give commands to avoid the berg - rather than risk a head-on collision.
Titanic's collision with the iceberg was obviously bad enough to sink her. The rivets were popped between the metal plates and enough water breached through to make her unstable and eventually to sink her.

its a thing where you hit a iceberg and bounce off it again

There is no such theory. If Titanic had not steered, she would have been destroyed by a head-on collision with the iceberg.
58 is i what think
Yes. Titanic only hit one iceberg and hardly saw any others the evening of the collision.
It's believed that something less than forty seconds transpired between Titanic's sighting of - and the collision with - the iceberg.
