Titanic Director James Cameron wants to end the decades-old debate over Jack's death.
The iconic scene finds Jack telling Rose to lie on a floating door as the Titanic sinks in the background. Partially submerged in the water, Jack holds on to the board and makes Rose promise him that she will survive, and as rescuers circle the area several hours later, she realizes Jack is dead.
Since the film’s release, critics and fans alike have argued that the door could have held both characters, ensuring their survival, but Cameron has consistently said Jack’s fate was written into page 147 of the script. “Look, it’s very, very simple,” Cameron told 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 could not have held both characters, Cameron has faced criticism that the scene is unrealistic and in a
episode, hosts Jamie Hyneman and Adam Savage told Cameron that if a lifejacket was placed under the door it would have created enough buoyancy for Jack and Rose to survive.
