Going down...

At the end of the film Titanic (yuk!) Rose (played by Kate Winslet) climbs aboard a floating door, and survives, while her lover Jack (Leonardo DiCaprio) stays in the freezing water and dies.  On a recent American chat-show Ms Winslet has accepted that she thinks her character "misjudged the situation" and that there would in fact have been room on the door for both of them.  But I thought Mythbusters (good programme if you've not come across it) sorted this out some time ago - it's not a matter of whether there was room on the door (there would have been) but rather whether the door could have supported the weight of both of them without sinking, and they showed conclusively that it wouldn't have, and they would both have died.
