Several campaigns were run in between.

Hollywood filmmaker James Cameron also made a blockbuster film in 1997. The story of the sinking of the Titanic was not easy to depict, but it was heart-wrenching. Cameron had told the New York Times that he had seen the clothes, shoes, pairs of shoes of the people killed in the accident. But never saw any human body.
where is the wreckage of titanic
The wreckage of Titanic is at a depth of about 13,000 feet in the bottom of the Atlantic. It is impossible to find remains of human body at such a depth after hundred years. Professor John Casella, a forensic scientist at the Atlantic Technological University Sligo in Ireland, says that bone deteriorates quickly in salt water.
However, he said that there could be human bones that would have been trapped among the wreckage of the ship even after 100 years. By the way, the wreckage of Titanic was not found till September 1985, 73 years after the sinking.
