Brock Lovett: Dive six, here we are again on the deck of Titanic. Two and a half miles down. Three-thousand, eight hundred and twenty-one meters. The pressure outside is three-and-a-half tons per square inch. These windows are nine inches thick, and if they go, it's sayonara in two micro-seconds.
Trivia
Until Avatar surpassed it in 2010, this was the highest-grossing film (in North American and worldwide) of all time. It was also the first to gross over a then unheard-of $500 million (its total gross is $600 million) in North America alone, and the first to gross an amazing $1 billion worldwide. See more...

Continuity: Ruth walks to the ship, followed by Rose and Cal. When she is about to enter, the angle cuts and suddenly several women with dogs haven taken her place, followed by a lady who looks nothing like Ruth. Then in the following close-angle the group is meters behind from where they first were, repeating the walk towards the door.
Audio problem: During the scene where Jack and Rose are walking around the ship and talking and Rose is telling him about her upcoming fears about the wedding, a frontal camera shot on Jack shows him asking her "It's a simple question, do you love the guy or not?". Jack finishes his sentence here, but about a second later, a rear camera shot of Jack (now also facing Rose) shows that his jawline and lips are moving and finishing the words "or not".
Factual error: All deep sea submersibles that travel to depths of two or three miles fall to the ocean floor with no power on. At the start of the film, you see MIR1 and MIR2 pan past the camera with all their lights on. The lights should be off to conserve electrical power. The journey to the sea bed takes two and a half hours.
Deliberate "mistake": When Jack and Rose are adrift in the ocean, the stars behind them are not the right ones for that time and date. In fact, it's not any sky ever seen on Earth. The right half of the sky is a mirror image of the left half. The fimmakers deliberately positioned the stars to form the shape of the pendant 'Heart of the Ocean.'
Factual error: Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) was handcuffed with old English Hiatt's Darby Handcuffs (type 104). This is historically correct. But the key for these handcuffs identifies them as modern reproductions, because it had a flat top and was "checkered". The old keys had an oval and smooth (only marked with "Hiatt" and a number) top. The handcuffs used in the film were not from 1912.
