Mocking God: The Fate of the "Unsinkable" Titanic
The RMS Titanic is perhaps one of the most iconic and tragic stories in modern history. Launched in 1912, it was the largest and most luxurious ocean liner of its time, and was touted as "unsinkable." However, on its maiden voyage across the Atlantic, disaster struck, and the Titanic collided with an iceberg and sank, taking over 1,500 lives with it.
The Titanic was built by the White Star Line, and was intended to be the flagship of their transatlantic passenger fleet. At the time, ocean travel was a popular and important means of transportation, particularly for those traveling between Europe and North America. The Titanic was designed to cater to the needs of these wealthy and influential passengers, offering luxurious accommodations and a range of onboard amenities, including a swimming pool, a gymnasium, and even a squash court.
The ship was constructed over the course of three years, and was finally launched in May of 1911. It was an impressive sight, measuring over 880 feet long and 175 feet tall, and featuring four huge funnels, two of which were purely for show. The Titanic was also equipped with the latest and most advanced safety features of the time, including watertight compartments and a double-bottomed hull, which were intended to prevent the ship from sinking in the event of a collision.
The Titanic departed from Southampton, England, on April 10, 1912, bound for New York City. On board were over 2,200 passengers and crew members, including some of the most prominent and wealthy people of the era. Among them were millionaires like John Jacob Astor and Benjamin Guggenheim, as well as famous figures like Molly Brown and Isidor Straus, who co-owned Macy's department store.
The voyage began smoothly, with the Titanic cruising across the Atlantic at a steady pace. However, on the night of April 14, disaster struck. At around 11:40 PM, the ship struck an iceberg, causing a massive gash along its side. Although the Titanic was equipped with watertight compartments, the damage was too extensive, and water began to flood the lower levels of the ship.
Subsequent books and movies included, "The "Unsinkable Molly Brown" which was the story of the owner of a fashionable Denver Hotel of that era.
Margaret Brown (née Tobin; July 18, 1867 – October 26, 1932), posthumously known as the "Unsinkable Molly Brown", was an American socialite and philanthropist. She was a survivor of the RMS Titanic, which sank in 1912, and she unsuccessfully urged the crew in Lifeboat No. 6 to return to the debris field to look for survivors.
People who mock God eventually live to regret it.
