Titanic made of matches (picture group)

The ill-fated Titanic has got a model designer into the Guinness Book of World Records. The designer, named Mark Collin, built the Titanic model ship with 3.5 million matchsticks. The model is 19 feet in length and weighs nearly 1 ton. Mark has now made his Titanic model available for public viewing. He says, "When I exhibit it, I enjoy seeing people inspecting it carefully. I've seen some people laughing, and others crying."
