Nobody knows. But i am going to have to say yes. But no one died from any sharks. Unless you yourself has been on the R.M.S titanic.
Not many sharks ever go in frigid water. plus the huge ship sinking and all the commotion would scare just about anything off.
Yes, there are some sharks in the North Atlantic Drift Area (Where the Titanic sank). But their more prevalent during the summer months that far North. The sharks that are most populated there are Blue sharks, Great White Sharks, some bull sharks, nurse sharks and many other different species. But if your wondering if any sharks made direct contact with the victims of the Titanic sinking I'm not sure but I don't believe there were any accounts of any attacks.
it depends on when your reading this but from the year 2011 the titanic practically sank 99 years ago.
How did they get titanic to the sea?
Titanic was built and maintained in a dry dock. It is a part of a dock that can be drained of water to access parts of the ship below the water line. The ship would stop, moor and then the water drained so work could be done. When it wanted to leave again water would be let in and Titanic would back out.

Why didnt the titanic see the iceberg?
The captain of the Titanic wasn't the one looking for things ahead of the Titanic. Another man named Fred Fleet had that job, and he didn't see it until too late because it was such a clear night.
Was the captain at fault for the titanic?
Well a lot of people say that it was indeed the Captain's fault and yes it was partly his fault, they got reports of an ice burg siting so he told the crew that they were going off course then he went for a stroll? Or something and a few minutes later the iceberg struck! But the Titanic's metallic materials were not strong enough because the designer bought them off some unknown supplier. Another reason was because the were going way to fast and this was because the wanted to be the biggest, strongest, fastest ship that arrived from Belfast to New York. Some people say that they misplaced there binoculars but, I don't agree with this theory. So yes it was kind of the Captains fault! But I would agree more on human error

What was the ultimate reason titanic sank?
the titanic sank because it hit a HUGE ice glacier, ripping a giant hole in the ship as it scooched along the glacier. the cruise liner broke into two, and the first part sunk to the bottom of the ocean while the other half stuck straight out of the water sinking fast.
The above is correct, but the reason that she sank is because of no watertight integrity being provided by the dividing non-watertight bulkheads. Thus, once breached, the water continued to transfer to the next compartment, then the next and so on. . .this resulted in a complete loss of reserve buoyancy and then sinking....
Modern vessels now have full watertight integrity (hopefully!) and a collision bulkhead positioned 1/20th of the ship's length from the stem (the sharp end!).
A similar fate brought the car ferry 'Herald Of Free Enterprise' to grief in the English Channel, when the car deck was swamped with water and the 'free surface effect' o the ingressed water caused a loss in stability (i.e. a negative GM) and the ship capsized.
