<p><b>New page</b></p><div>The '''Titanic iceberg''' refers, literally, to the iceberg struck by the RMS ''Titanic'' on 14–15 April 1912—and, culturally, to that iceberg as a reusable symbol in education, memorial media, and internet humour.<br />
<br />
==Maritime fact==<br />
Contemporary inquiries established that ''Titanic'' collided with an iceberg in the North Atlantic; the disaster became the defining modern shipwreck narrative in popular culture.<br />
<br />
==Meme and chart culture==<br />
Because the public already associates "iceberg" with hidden danger beneath the waterline, the Titanic story reinforces the same metaphor that internet [[Iceberg chart|iceberg charts]] exploit. Joke charts occasionally label maritime or film-history tiers with Titanic references; more often the disaster simply supplies instinctive literacy for the tip-versus-bulk image ([[Tip of the iceberg]]).<br />
<br />
This article covers the cultural crossover, not a conspiracy reframing of 1912 events.<br />
