Director of a documentary for National Geographic titanic repeated the ferry scene to prove that Jack could not survive with Rose.
“But why doesn’t Jack get on the board with Rose?”, “Of course they both could have survived,” “My God, how selfish!” Since 1997, everyone has been commenting on the tragic fate of Jack Dawson, the hero. titanic . Many fans are even convinced. there was enough room for two on the wooden door, which had been turned into a makeshift raft, and Leonardo DiCaprio’s character might very well have survived if he climbed onto it with Kate Winslet. Are they right or wrong? To close the file once and for all, director James Cameron simply recreated the ferry scene professionally. An experience told in a documentary Titanic. 25 years later with James Cameronwhich will be shown on National Geographic on February 5, 2023.
Two professionals took on the roles of heroes titanic. Under the watchful eye of the filmmaker, they recreated the smallest actions and gestures of Jack Dawson and Rose DeWitt Bukater in the minutes following the shipwreck. And in frozen water. “So we did exactly what they did in the movie, except we doubled the time for each step because our water wasn’t cold enough,” James Cameron says in an excerpt from the documentary.

As in titanic, the diver is then pulled underwater by a man who uses him as a buoy… before Jack comes to his rescue. “The faster your heart beats, the faster the frozen blood from your arms and legs reaches your heart and lowers your temperature,” analyzes James Cameron, while an expert details the effects of hydrococcation. “When you enter water at -2 degrees, your breath stops, your heart beats faster, your blood vessels constrict, your blood pressure immediately rises,” says the specialist interviewed in the documentary.
Happy ending?
But what exactly about Jack? fans of titanic It’s sure to be a disappointment, but it’s impossible for Rose to survive if she shares the wooden board. Evidence of James Cameron’s experience for National Geographic. In particular, we see the two professionals climb onto a makeshift raft that sinks several centimeters into the water. Half of the water, the diver taking on the role of Jack immediately begins to tremble and shake very hard. And the same fate seems to be reserved for Rose. both would freeze to death. On the contrary, in titanic, the wooden board floats and allows Kate Winslet’s character to stay (almost) dry while waiting for help. L’good ending which we would all dream of, therefore, was truly impossible.
“would change”
Kate Winslet recently shared her perspective on the matter in an episode of an American podcast Happy Sad Confused aired on December 16. “I have to be honest. In fact, I don’t think we would have survived if we had climbed that door together. I think he could have landed, but it would have flipped… and it wouldn’t have been a solid idea. So here you will hear for the first time, yes, he could put himself on this door, but it could not keep us afloat.
On this occasion, the Oscar-winning actress revealed another darker side that stems from these public and media speculations. When the film was released in 1997, Kate Winslet said that she received inappropriate comments about her body and weight because of this famous scene. “Obviously I was ‘too fat’(for this wooden door, editor’s note)– he said, surprised. – Isn’t it terrible? Why were they so angry with me? They were so mean… I wasn’t even fat.” Fortunately, a celebrity supporter of Leonardo DiCaprio assures us that the way we talk about women’s bodies has changed a lot since the late 1990s.
