Jack Dawson didn't die at the end of the movie 'Titanic.' He swam down to Tampa Bay. That's what you would think, walking into the home of titanicfan97.
Jack Dawson didn't die at the end of the movie "Titanic." He swam down to Tampa Bay.The 30-year-old Largo resident, who's known only by his username, has gathered a cult following of nearly 50,000 social media users, mostly through TikTok, as he builds the self-proclaimed world's largest collection of "Titanic" on VHS.500 more, @titanicfan97, who asked to remain anonymous, told Axios he'll reveal his face to his fans.
"I think the mystery is good," he said. "I just love making content and having fun, and I love 'Titanic' on VHS."The VHS format has been dead for nearly 20 years, piling up in thrift stores. But our "Titanic" fan has turned those rejected piles into a scavenger hunt for people around the world as they help build his collection.
He's received tapes mailed from as far away as Australia, and he's drained Tampa Bay of all its copies. If you're looking for one, you'll need to drive at least an hour away.In 2012, he noticed 12 VHS tapes of "Titanic" at a Suncoast Hospice Resale Shop in Clearwater. They became the start of his collection.When I stopped by his home, three televisions were playing VHS copies of the movie non-stop, while a family of five Jack Dawson dummies watched over the collection.
Most recently, he built a Jack Dawson out of the tapes to mark 500 copies and had Lowes create paint inas the VHS cover's spine for the door of his home office-turned-"Titanic" temple.Yes, but:is out to foil his plan and collect all the copies of "Titanic" on VHS he can find and destroy them.He wants to own as many as he can of the 25 million VHS copies of the movie that were sold, but he'll settle somewhere between 1,997 and 1 million.
