Description

The sinking of the Titanic was far more than a simple accident. It was a tragedy that could have been prevented. It was the result of a long chain of mistakes: a fatal series of avoidable human errors that sent the Titanic and more than half of her passengers to their watery graves. Based around the official inquiry held immediately after the event, plus evidence that's come to light since the wreck of the Titanic was discovered in 1985, National Geographic, in this drama-documentary special, answers the question: Who Sank the Titanic?

This documentary from National Geographic takes an inside look at the sinking of the Titanic, using modern technology to study the wreckage, examine the conditions, and and figure out exactly what made the so-called "unsinkable" ship become one of the most infamous disasters in history.
