A Tragedy Explained: Most think anchors were created to keep ships in place; this is a lie. It's what drink-happy captains told the public to justify having a gigantic cool-shaped keg on board at all times, and Edward John Smith (ill-fated captain of the Titanic) was about as big an imbiber as they come. As the Titanic approached the ice berg, people tried to use the anchor to slow them down only to discover the truth: they were going to be the most happily drunken people to ever drown in the icy waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
