According to survivors, pieces of the iceberg landed on the promenade deck, as depicted in the film.
TitanicThe crews were really not prepared for an emergency of this magnitude. Since ships were considered unsinkable at the time, Titanic The lifeboat was only big enough for half the passengers. The crew did not know how to properly conduct the evacuation and many lifeboats were half-launched, leaving third-class passengers behind, resulting in many being trapped under deck as the boat filled with water. A little over two and a half hours Titanic Hitting an iceberg, the deck was submerged and water poured in through the hatches and open nets. When its unsupported stern appeared, the ship broke in half.

As seen in the film, the lights remained on until the ship was about to sink, and what one survivor recalls was probably a series of “terrible explosions” from the boilers.

Is there room for Jack in the door?
The infamous door scene is definitely one of the saddest Titanic, which raises many questions. First, can Jack go with Rose? The short answer is yes.” Depending on the size of the makeshift raft, Jack can board the raft without the door sinking.
The longer answer, however, is more complicated as to whether Jack and Rose will fit in the door. The real question is whether any of them survived, if at all. One episode legend The scene was recreated to test the theory that Jack may have survived, and while the series suggests he may have survived, it was James Cameron who oversaw the subsequent experiments. Cameron was repeatedly asked in interviews why Rose and Jack were different, and he decided to find the answer to this question 25 years after the movie was released.
exist national geography special Titanic: 25 Years Later with James Cameron, the scientist and Cameron devised many scenarios involving Jack, Rose, the door, and the icy water. While the experiments demonstrated that both people could be on the door, they also demonstrated that their vital organs had to be above water level to prevent both from dying from hypothermia or shock. The conclusion was that if both Jack and Rose were at the door, it could take them 30 minutes together for the lifeboat to get there, but other factors could change the outcome at any time.
Cameron also points out in the special that it’s really important that Jack ensures Rose’s survival. The decision not to jump in the door with her was to make sure she was out of the water and able to rest from the tough battle of being in the water. Titanic. Cameron said, “I think his thought process was, ‘I won’t do anything to endanger her’, that’s 100% personality.“
Regardless of whether Jack can live in real life or not, Cameron has been steadfast with his choice for years, hoping that the whole debate will come to an end. In an interview, Cameron said BBC One, “[…] Will Romeo be wise and not drink poison? Correct. Would he decide not to bring his small dagger in case Juliet stabs herself with it? Exactly exactly. It eliminates miss points. ” it may miss the point Titanicbut that doesn’t stop the theory that Jack could have survived if Rose had moved even a little — and that James Cameron had purposefully killed Jack like the frozen Atlantic.
