The easily avoidable disaster of the Titanic

One of the most well known sea disasters is the story of #Titanic, the world’s first 'unsinkable ship', which sank on its maiden voyage across the #Atlantic.

 

It’s a story we all know but what you mightn’t know is just how badly #WhiteStarLines behaved before AND after the tragedy. Or how badly the captains of a couple of vessels behaved during the events of the 15th of April, 1912.

 

The tragedy of Titanic prompted a series of stricter #maritime safety standards. And rightly so.

 

In this episode, we discuss the #tragedyofTitanic’s sinking and the horrendous loss of life that occurred, brought on by the irresponsible actions of many individuals and how appalling some people (not on the ship), behaved.
