I had no idea that the Titanic made it that close to North America and/or that icebergs are that far South (relatively) in the Atlantic.

Would it make you feel any better if I told you that's probably not a threat for much longer? I'm not a scientist, but my understanding is that spot is probably at a gentle simmer by now.

TBF I don't think they planned on seeing an iceberg that far south either.
