How big was the Iceberg?
Observations of witnesses suggest it was100 to 120 feet high. Assuming the ‘berg was roughly a cone shape with a diameter at the waterline of 100 feet, this would indicate the iceberg had a mass of between 20,000 and 25,000 tons. Warm weather causes huge chunks of ice to break off of glaciers. The icebergs then float south with the ocean current until they eventually melt. The iceberg that Titanic hit most likely came from Greenland.
