Is it true that the Titanic broke in two before sinking in the North Atlantic in 1912?
Yes. A reference article on the sinking states that survivor accounts and the position of the engines indicate the ship broke in two as she sank in the North Atlantic on 15 April 1912. Other sources confirm the 1912 North Atlantic sinking but do not address the break-up.
