TITANIC

TITANIC IS TOTALLY OPPOSITE TO ITS MEANING WHICH MEANS AN UNSINKABLE ONE AND WHICH SANK IN 1912. I HAVE SEEN THIS MOVIE OVER 75 TIMES AND EACH TIME I SEE IT I GET TO KNOW SOMETHING NEW. I LIKE THE SONG "MY HEART WILL GO ON" SO MUCH THAT I CANNOT GO MY DAY WITHOUT IT. I AM SO HAPPY THAT THIS MOVIE IS 11 ACADEMY AWARD WINNER. ITS BEAUTIFULLY DIRECTED BY CAMERON. NOTHING IS LEFT OPENED. I SIMPLY ADMIRE THIS MOVIE BECAUSE OF ITS UNENDING IMPRESSION ON MY MIND.

Who didn't love the Titanic as a kid?? I was infatuated by the mystery and the awe of what some termed 'The Unsinkable Ship'. Even to this day, I think it would be simply amazing to dive down and explore the wreckage of the Titanic. Here are a few statistics about the ship.The Titanic was built in Ireland. She was 882 feet 9 inches long and 92 feet 6 inches wide. Her gross weight was 46,328 tons. The top speed was 23 knots, or a little over 26 mph. The ship could hold a total of 3,547 passengers and crew.Titanic began her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York City on Wednesday, April 10, 1912. Four days later, on April 14, 1912, the ship struck an iceberg. She sank just two hours and forty minutes later on April 15, 1912. Tragically, more than 1500 people died. That makes it one of the worst peacetime maritime disasters in history. In 1985, scientists discovered the Titanic on the bottom of the ocean floor. But recently new evidence has just surfaced...Two years away, one of the last sole survivors who actually remembered that tragic night passed away. According to an ABC report, she was only 5 when she and her family boarded the Titanic. Unimaginably, her dad and three brothers all died in the accident. Even though she rarely talked about that horrific night, she kept a few keepsakes hidden in a shoebox. After her death, her family found them and now are putting them up for auction. They are expected to raise hundreds of thousands of dollars. Included is her father's pocket watch, stopped the instant he hit the water, her parents' wedding bands, along with other keepsakes. A key was also found and some believe that it could unlock a box containing the family's more prized possessions. The problem? The box is suspected to still be on the bottom of the ocean floor. Let the mystery continue...
