This was such an outstanding and riveting documentary about the tragedy and history of the Titanic. What happened to the Titanic in 1912 is symbol of many things that we can apply to our world today. Two of the most significant are: 1) when technology gets away from us or gets too "big" and out of the control of humans, we lose an understanding of what it is that's been created - in this case, it was Titanic's first voyage and its capabilities and limits were not truly known; 2) that the fate of the people on the Titanic is a microcosm of what happens to people in our world....the people in steerage (the lowest passenger class) likely suffered more than those of wealth and stature (those traveling in first class).
