10 Mistakes That Sank the Titanic

Documentary examining the chain of events that led to the maritime disaster in April 1912, when the ship struck an iceberg in the north Atlantic and went down with around 1,500 passengers and crew. From the procedure for fixing rivets into the ship's bows, the delays in its construction that pushed the maiden voyage into perilous iceberg season, and the astonishing fact that the lookouts on watch that fateful night had no access to binoculars, this film reveals the 10 key mistakes that conspired to sink the supposedly unsinkable Titanic

10 Mistakes That Sank the Titanic airs on PBS America at 10:55 PM, Friday 13 September. (Subtitles.)
