How Long Did It Take The Titanic To Sink After It Hit The Iceberg?

It took the Titanic two hours and forty minutes to sink, after hitting the iceberg at 11:40 pm on the night of April 14 1912. Titanic had already received warnings of icebergs from the steamer SS Amerika and also the Mesaba, but unfortunately, both warnings weren't delivered to the correct place.

After the iceberg was spotted by lookouts, warnings were sent to the bridge, and an attempt to turn and reverse the ship went wrong, ending in a collision between the right side of the ship and the iceberg.

The ship's creator, Thomas Andrews and a few others carried out an inspection on the ship after the collision, and from this it became clear that the sinking of the Titanic was inevitable. After the inspection, a distress signal was sent out, and lifeboats were readied just after midnight, with the first one being lowered just after 12.40 am on April 15, 1912.

My estimation is 2 hrs and 40 min.

2 hour's and forty minutes

Two hours and forty minutes

Two hours and 40 mins

2 hours and 40 mins it says in a few books in the library :)

2 hours 40 mins

At approximately 11:40 p.m. On April 14, 1912 Titanic collided with the iceberg. Two hours and forty minutes later she sank out of sight.

2hrs and 40 mins

2 hours and 40 minutes. About.

2hours and 40 minutes.

2 hours 40 min .

2 hours and 40 minutes

2:00 and 45 minutes

It took two hours and forty minutes for the ship to sink. All those people who were on board of the ship were amazed at the size of it. When it hit the iceberg they probably thought that it would have been better going on a usual ship. Those of you who say such nonsense as aliens sunk Titanic or that it took 90 hours for it to sink... Explain your reasoning of saying that or just keep quiet. How would you feel if you were laughed at after such a catastrophe? Would you be laughing when you were told that you almost died on a sinking ship because of aliens?

FUN FACT. One of the band members missed the boat before it took off.

Titanic sailed on the Atlantic Ocean. It hit the iceberg at approximately 11:40 on April 12th 1912. The stern of the ship, which was the last part to sink, would go underwater at approximately 2:40 AM on April 13th so from the time Titanic hit the iceberg until the time she sank was 3 hours.

It did ot take 92 hours 24 minutes and 16 seconds

About two hours and 40 minutes to sink!!!!

I think like 2hours 30 minutes maybe

It took 2 hours and 20 mins

2-3 hours

I say it took about 2 hours and 20 minutes

Only a few hours. It sunk very fast for its size.

92 hours 24 minutes 16 seconds

It took about 2hour and 40mins that is really how long it took

It took 2 1/2 days to sink all the way to the bottom

It took 2 hr 40 mins to sink exactly

It took 2 hours and 40 minutes for the Titanic to sink.

Wth do you think dumb hole!

It had took 2 hours and 40 minutes for the titanic to sink, it was all underwater on april 15 of 1912

The titanic was struck by an alien space ship and it sank 3.14 seconds later.

They thought it would take 2 hours but it took just over 2 and a half hours

About 1 hour

It really took about 30mints

4 hours!

 it took 2 hours and 40 minutes to sink

I think in 2-3 hrs it was totally sunk in water.

About 3 hrs.

From the moment the titanic hit the ice berg til it was totally submerged underneath the atlantic was a total of six hours.

It took the titanic about 2 hours and 40 minutes to sink after being hit by the iceberg.

About 2 hours and 45 hours because it was not moving and it broke right thru it sez in film 8)

The 2 hr. And 45 min's is right....But the inspection that was only really done a few different time's
after finding it on the bottom of the sea,different samples were tested (construction and the steel used)  Done by Popular Mechanics>>> the steel was mass produced in a hurry to meet deadlines and cutting corners for budget pourpeses...was too brittle... Sulfer content was off...from what I read over 20 yrs. Ago...

10 minutes

One hour

1 hour.

6 hours

The iceberg was just a cover for the titanic hitting a surfaced German nuclear submarine. The sinking took 2hrs 51 mins

It took almost 2 hours and 30 min one part of the ship sank first and the bw sank around 3 am

It took 2 hours and 45 mins for the titanic to sink after hitting the iceberg on it right side and it took out all of the first deak
