James Cameron Says ‘Thorough Forensic Analysis’ Proves Jack’s Titanic Death Was Inevitable

James Cameron, the director of the critically acclaimed 1997 movie Titanic, is placing the 25-year floating door debate to relaxation. Cameron has said that he has carried out a research to unequivocally show that each Jack (performed by Leonardo DiCaprio) and Rose (performed by Kate Winslet) couldn’t have survived within the frigid waters the place the ship sank.

The iconic scene finds Jack telling Rose to lie on a floating door because the Titanic sinks within the background. Partially submerged within the water, Jack holds on to the board and makes Rose promise him that she’s going to survive, and as rescuers circle the world a number of hours later, she realizes Jack is useless.

Since the movie’s launch, critics and followers alike have argued that the door might have held each characters, guaranteeing their survival, however Cameron has constantly stated Jack’s destiny was written into web page 147 of the script. “Look, it’s very, very simple,” Cameron informed The Daily Beast in 2017. “You read page 147 of the script and it says, ‘Jack gets off the board and gives his place to her so that she can survive.’”

Despite his insistence that the door couldn’t have held each characters, Cameron has confronted criticism that the scene is unrealistic and in a Mythbusters episode, hosts Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage informed Cameron that if a lifejacket was positioned below the door it will have created sufficient buoyancy for Jack and Rose to outlive.

Cameron is now placing an finish to the talk, and informed Postmedia per the Toronto Sun that he commissioned “a scientific study to put this whole thing to rest and drive a stake through its heart once and for all.”

He defined, “We have since done a thorough forensic analysis with a hypothermia expert who reproduced the raft from the movie … We took two stunt people who were the same body mass of Kate and Leo and we put sensors all over them and inside them and we put them in ice water and we tested to see whether they could have survived through a variety of methods and the answer was, there was no way they both could have survived. Only one could survive.”

The research is about to look in a National Geographic particular in February across the time the remastered model of Titanic is scheduled to be launched.

The Titanic grew to become the highest-ever grossing movie on the time till the discharge of Cameron’s 2009 movie, Avatar. But within the a long time since Titanic was launched, the controversial scene has plagued Cameron no matter his feedback that Jack needed to die. In 2019, he stated on BBC’s sequence, Movies That Made Me, that the talk was “stupid,” and in contrast the storyline to that of Romeo and Juliet.

“But if you really want to unearth all the dumbass arguments associated with it, … let’s go back to, could Romeo have been smart and not taken the poison?” he informed the outlet, answering, “Yes.” He continued, “Could he have decided not to bring his little dagger just in case Juliet might stab herself with it? Yes, absolutely. It sort of misses the point.”

No matter what the critics say, the ultimate moments of Jack’s life are one thing Cameron stated needed to occur. Speaking to Postmedia, he stated, “It’s a movie about love and sacrifice and mortality. The love is measured by the sacrifice.”
