James Cameron made the Titanic more epic than it ever was. And after scores of books, movies and memorabilia around the ill-fated ship, the ship has a new record breaking keepsake that fetched a staggering £220,000 ($362,920). The artifact in question is a 33ft plan of the Titanic, which was created to aid the inquiry about its sinking in 1912.
