No, the sinking of the RMS Titanic was not a natural disaster. By definition, a natural disaster is a disaster caused by natural forces (like a hurricane or an earthquake), rather than by human action.
Though the main cause of the RMS Titanic's sinking was the effect of hitting an iceberg on its maiden voyage in April 1912, the other cause was human error. So, natural causes did not explicitly cause the RMS Titanic to sink.
At approximately 11:40pm April 14, 1912 the Titanic struck an iceberg. At 2:20am April 15,1912 the Titanic plunged to the bottom of the ocean. This occurred between Iceland and New York City.
The worst maritime disaster in 1912 was the sinking of the R.M.S Titanic in the early morning of April 15, 1912 in the North Atlantic Ocean on its way to New York City, US from Southampton, UK. Over 1,500 lives were lost.

No, a hazard does not always result in a disaster. A hazard is a potential threat that can cause harm, but whether it leads to a disaster depends on factors such as human actions, preparedness, and the resilience of communities. Effective risk management and mitigation strategies can often prevent hazards from escalating into disasters.
Primary sources such as survivor testimonies and official inquiries like the British and American investigations into the sinking of the Titanic provide insights into why the ship sank. Factors contributing to the disaster included the ship hitting an iceberg, design flaws like the compartmentalization of the hull, lack of sufficient lifeboats, and mismanagement of the emergency response.
