April of 2012 will mark the 100th anniversary of the Titanic sinking, and if you have deep enough pockets, you can go check out the wreckage. For $60,000 you can take a two-week cruise through the Atlantic, stopping at the Titanic wreckage for an eight to ten hour dive. Per the New York Times: "With the centennial in mind, at least 80 people are expected to take the plunge down to the wreck, according to the company that runs the trips, Deep Ocean Expeditions." The New Republic has some words of wisdom if you're going to take the plunge.
