Director James Cameron says he’s conducting a scientific study and finally proving that Jack has to die at the end of the Titanic movie.
In the movie, the main characters, Jack and Rose, struggle to survive as the eponymous Titanic sinks in the Atlantic Ocean. While the ship is sinking, they hold on to a part of the ship, but there is not enough space for two people on this part.
As the two cling to this severed piece to save themselves from drowning in the cold ocean and hypothermia, Jack decides that the only way for Rose to survive is for Rose to get over the door and get herself into the water to float the door. Thus, Rose survives while Jack dies.
Over the years, people began to speculate that if Rose stepped aside a little, there was actually plenty of room for both. The topic was also the subject of a Mythbusters episode, and the team concluded that if they had strapped the life vest to the bottom of the item, they would have been able to stay afloat long enough to be rescued.
“No matter how noble Jack’s intentions were, sometimes common sense is the more important part of valor,” Mythbusters said. “From everything we’ve learned, I think Jack’s death was unnecessary.”
Kate Winslet, who plays Rose, also told Jimmy Kimmel in a recorded interview in 2016, “I think she’d really fit in.”
However, James Cameron did not leave the subject here. In addition to making it clear that “Jack must die” because the story is about sacrifice, the director said that he and a team did a scientific analysis.
“We’ve done a scientific study to put this whole thing aside and definitively get a stake in the heart of this debate,” Cameron told Postmedia, adding that they were conducting a forensic review with a hypothermia expert for a report to be published in February.
“We took two stuntmen with the same body mass as Kate and Leo and placed sensors on them and in them and put them in ice water and tested whether they could survive using various methods, and the answer was, it wasn’t possible for both of them to survive,” he told the news source. one could have survived.”
