Amid the 25th anniversary of Titanic, director James Cameron is attempting to settle the longstanding debate once and for all: whether Leonardo DiCaprio’s Jack could’ve fit on that door and survived
In order to reexamine Jack’s final moments, Cameron enlisted help from a team of scientists and two stunt people to test four different scenarios to examine whether two people could have shared the door.
“Jack and Rose are able to get on the raft, but now they’re both submerged in dangerous levels of freezing water,” Cameron explains as the stunt people prove it. Meanwhile in another example, Cameron details, “Out of the water, violent shaking was helping him and projecting it out, he could’ve made it pretty long, like hours.”
For a final test, they then incorporate the physical strain the characters would have endured amid the sinking of the ship — in the film, another passenger submerges Rose underwater before Jack saves her by punching them. Cameron also tests the scenario should Rose have offered her life jacket to help insulate Jack: “And he’s stabilized. He got into a place where if we projected that out, he just might’ve made it until the lifeboat got there.
Cameron has been vocal over the years about the door debate, arguing that it was essential to the story. But with the special, he attempts to settle the debate for good.
