50 Images From The Titanic You Have To See To Believe

The Titanic hit the Iceberg 37 seconds after it was Spotted

Fredrick Fleet, the Titanic’s lookout, spotted the iceberg that sank the Titanic before anyone else; he spotted a large object’s outline in the mist ahead. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a lot of time between when Fleet saw the iceberg and the time of impact.

Even though Fredrick frantically rang the alarm to inform others of the danger ahead, the Titanic collided with the iceberg 37 seconds after he first spotted it. His warning was received by James Moody who relayed it to First Officer Murdoch but ultimately, none of them could prevent the collision.
