Why did the Titanic went underwater not on top?
The bottom loved the water and iceberg, so it tried to give it a nice big hug. But the iceberg didn't want a hug. It smacked the bottom with its big iceberg hand. The bottom now had a big hole in it! So it had to leave the top and go underwater without it. The top was so alone, it became depressed. So it made the iceberg kill it, too. And that is why the Titantic went underwater not on top.
What day did the Titanic crash?
RMS Titanic's lookout Frederick Fleet spotted the iceberg at 11:40pm on April 14, 1912. His warning "Iceberg, Right Ahead!" was immediately heard, but Titanic was too close to the iceberg to avoid collision, and she struck the iceberg seconds after his warning. The bulk of an iceberg is actually underwater - what is seen is actually a small part. The Titanic crew did its best to avoid the crash, but had no way of knowing that the iceberg in fact extended out past what was visible. In recent years, part of her bottom has been found some distance from the main wreck, confirming theories that her bottom was ripped open by the iceberg, causing the bulk of the damage that sank her just under 3 hours later (2:20am, April 15, 1912).

When someone says that something is only the "tip of the iceberg", they mean there is much more to it than what you see at first.
