James Cameron reveals only one could live in iconic Titanic scene

The director of the 1997 film Titanic is putting an end to the debate about floating doors. The study was done to prove that Jack and Rose could not have survived in the cold waters where the ship sank, according to the report.

Jack told Rose to lie on a floating door as the Titanic sank. When Jack is partially submerged in the water, he holds on to the board and makes Rose promise that she will survive, and as rescuers circle the area, she realises Jack is dead.

Critics and fans of the film have argued that the door could have held both characters, ensuring their survival, but it was written into the script. "Look, it's very, very simple." Jack gets off the board and gives his place to her in order to survive.

Despite his insistence that the door couldn't hold both characters, the scene is unrealistic and in a Mythbusters episode, the hosts told him that a lifejacket would have made a difference.

In an interview with the Toronto Sun, he said that he commissioned a scientific study to put an end to the debate.

He said, "We did 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 andLeo and we put sensors all over them and inside them and we tested them." One person could survive.

The study will be shown in a National Geographic special in February around the time of the re-release of the Titanic movie.

The highest grossing film of all time was Titanic, which was released in 1997 by Warner Bros.. In the decades since Titanic was released, the controversial scene has plagued the film's director even though he said Jack had to die. He said that the debate was stupid and compared it to that of Shakespeare's play.

He said that if you really want to uncover all the dumbass arguments associated with it, then let's go back to the beginning. He wondered if he had decided not to bring his dagger if Juliet stabbed herself. Absolutely. It misses the big picture.

No matter what the critics say, the final moments of Jack's life are what he wanted. He told Postmedia that it was a movie about love and sacrifice. Love is measured by sacrifice.
