b'Coming up on Day 11 of the 12 Days of Riskmas, when it comes to most major disasters, what you will find is that it\\u2019s never a BIG BANG that triggers the impacts but, rather a litany of small misses that \\u2013 cumulatively \\u2013 create a risk exposure too large to absorb.

In today\\u2019s episode, I look at a how a simple pair of binoculars \\u2013 a canary in the coalmine - might have changed the outcome of the doomed voyage of Titanic.
