[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]May I ask a dumb question?

We have pics of the Titanic wreck, so clearly someone has been down there before? How did they live to tell the tale?[/quote]

I think the first to take photos was an unmanned sub. But there have been manned subs, like Alvin, which is a spherical sub made out of titanium. The lost titan is different because it’s a tourist sub, not made by a huge research institution like Wood’s hole like Alvin.[/quote]
Makes sense. Thank you. [/quote]

Yes, remember in the movie, the divers are using robots to film and that's how the necklace was recovered?[/quote]

Wait... some of the footage in the Titanic is real footage? Wait, what? [/quote]

Most of it is. [/quote]

There’s an interesting interview with James Cameron on the web where he talks about how the movie was in furtherance of his desire to visit and film the Titanic, not the other way around. He had no special urge to tell the Titanic story, but rather an urge to justify some of the cost of his visits to the wreck as production costs for the film.[/quote]
