Did you know the following facts about the Titanic : JP Morgan owned the company that built the ship – White Star Liner, the ship?s cost a whopping $7.5 million dollars to complete, 3,000 men were responsible for building the ship, a first class ticket cost an equivalent of $50,000 today, out of the 4 funnels, only 3 were working as the 4th one was only for aesthetic purposes and the ship was never christened because it was not customary for White Star Liner to do this.

Here are facts about the notorious yet completely innocent iceberg that struck the Titanic: 6 iceberg warnings were ignored by the operator who was busy receiving and transmitting passenger messages, the still waters during the night of the collision made it difficult for the icebergs to be seen, the ?gash? the iceberg caused the ship was about 230 feet long (the ship was 882 feet long), and the watertight compartments not built to their correct height. For the latter, had the Titanic been built in the correct height and not left open on top, the ship would have floated.
