[Peter] Have you ever noticed how different the Titanic was compared to today? Stop and think: a luxury ship, the most modern ever built, crossing the Atlantic… and yet it took rich people and poor people on the same trip! Have you seen any cruise ships do this nowadays?
The guys put the ticket at the top, only rich people pay. If you were poor, not even paying in installments! Well, on Titanic that happened.
And the film explored precisely this meeting of social layers. Rose DeWitt Bukater was from a wealthy family, she even had a wealthy surname. Jack Dawson had nowhere to fall hard.
But… what if I told you that Jack was not only poor, but he was also a time traveler? This changes a lot of things in the film and you will understand what this theory is here in this video, let's go. Hey Nerd, what's up?
Peter here! Titanic was one of the biggest box office hits of all time. The movie was released in 1997 and spent 12 years at the top of the box office.
Titanic only came out on top when director James Cameron himself released Avatar, in 2009. The guy is too angry. So, it is clear that Titanic created a legion of fans who continue to this day, the film is a cultural landmark.
To this day we think, man: couldn't Rose have freed up a little space on that board for the guys to float? But anyway! There are some people who can't find out that the movie is showing on TV and stop to watch it.
Because, really, there are a lot of people who love this movie. So, whenever a film reaches this cult level, the theory crowd also emerges. What is this, it's the core of the house.
Did Jack fit or not fit on that board floating there? Did Jack really exist? What?
I didn't know that one, but anyway. There is a theory that says that Jack was all Rose's delusion. .
. check it out because I already brought this theory here on the channel. I'm saying, man, go out there and watch, guys.
But what I bring to you today is an even more insane theory: Jack Dawnson was a time traveler, coming from the future. Like Kang. And I say more: more.
He may have caused the sinking of the Titanic. Like this? Your head will explode.
So before, man, hit this like hard now, are you doing this? I gotta feel this vibe! Wow, thank you from the bottom of my heart, guys.
Look, I get goosebumps because I feel this. First of all, we have to understand that director James Cameron knows a lot about time travel. I'm not saying he travels through time, I'm saying he can, okay?
The guy directed the first two moviess in the Terminator franchise. In fact, the two best films in the franchise, but leave it alone. James Cameron is also a guy who really enjoys science fiction.
Titanic was the only film in his career that didn't have any technological elements, nothing impossible, the only film that was down to earth. That's strange, isn't it? Or did the director hide clues to another story behind Titanic?
As many of you know, James Cameron studied the sinking of the Titanic in depth. “Deep down”, understand? The fact is that the director researched, researched a lot.
He checked the remains of the Titanic at the bottom of the sea, he consulted historians, he really “delved” into the subject. OK, that was the last time. So, with so much background, it is very difficult to explain how the film has so many inconsistencies, dates and facts that don't match.
Well, if the guy studied his ass off, we might think that something is wrong there, right? According to the opinion of several experts, Jack Dawson's appearance did not match the profile of men at the time. His hair type was not the hair type of 1912.
Men wore their hair very short. The clothes were also out of keeping with the time. What is pointed out is that the entire costume, the style, looked like something out of the 30s or 40s.
“Ah, Peter, so he traveled from the 30s? There was no time machine in the 30s, that theory is flawed, Peter. ” Maybe, but Jack could be wearing a costume based on the 1930s and thinking it was appropriate for 1912.
The point is, if the Titanic production team already messed things up in 1997, someone from a distant future could just as easily get confused. confusing in appearance. This type of error happens.
So much happens that it happened: at best, it was a failure on the part of the production. But, let's continue. Jack Dawnson doesn't carry any money.
He won a ticket to the Titanic in a bet. The theory says that this is proof that he arrived in that era without any kind of money and had to make do. “Improve it, Peter, this theory is weak”.
Don't worry, now we've reached the good part. Jack Dawson tells very little about his past. But what he says doesn't match the dates.
The Titanic sank in 1912. Save this information. Boot into your memory, 1912.
Jack stops Rose from jumping into the sea. She was going to kill herself. Jack jokes that the water must have been very cold, just like when he sank once in Wissota Lake when he was fishing.
But Lake Wissota is not a natural lake. This lake was created following the construction of a hydroelectric plant in 1917, five years after the sinking of the Titanic. HEEEY!
Oh boy. Later on, Jack explains that he sold portraits painted on the Santa Monica Pier for ten cents. Wow, Santa Monica Pier is close to my house.
He promises that he will take Rose there one day and that she will ride the roller coaster until she gets sick. Again, another inconsistency: the Santa Monica Pier was opened in 1909, ok, the date matches, but the roller coaster would only be built in 1916, four years after the Titanic sank to the bottom of the sea. HEEEY again!
You're enjoying it, right, for now it's cool, you're here until now. . .
you must be like: "I don't know, huh". You want more? Jack appears filming cigarettes with a filter.
The process of filtering cigarette substances was patented in 1925 and it was only in 1935 that a British company began to produce filter cigarettes on a large scale. It gets worse: this type of cigarette was considered a luxury, poor people didn't buy it. Filter cigarettes only became really popular after 1954, when the manufacturing process was made cheaper.
Okay, if he came from the future, I imagine he had money to buy a cigarette, but he bought it in the future. And there? Did James Cameron make a bad mistake, a rude mistake, or did he plant something strange there?
To complicate the director's life, some fans pointed out that this theory has a serious consequence: if Jack came from the future, he altered the timeline. Jack could have come to cause the wreck. Like this?
When he saves Rose from jumping ship, he dooms the entire Titanic. Why? Because no one was going to leave her body at sea.
The procedure would be to stop the boat and carry out a rescue. Either they would manage to rescue her alive or they would rescue the deceased, but they would have to stop and rescue her. One way or another, the trip would be delayed.
By being late, the Titanic would have missed the moment to hit the iceberg and nothing, absolutely none of that would have happened. Did you get bored? James Cameron doesn't say a peep about this theory.
Now, I want to know your opinion: does it make sense? It makes sense, really! Did Jack not die, did he just go back to his time?
Would you see a Titanic 2 if the story continued like this? I know you're going to say now: "Peter, you're so crazy. " Okay, but I would come, I would come if it was exactly like that, it doesn't matter, it wouldn't tarnish the first one, right, it would just be something really crazy, right?
It's like that Gladiator movie, right, where Kratos was going to come back from the sky. . .
it would be cool, right? But this Titanic 2 movie with a trip to the future, hey, you would really enjoy it. Comment here, COMMENNNT!
And tap here, subscribe to the channel. If you stayed this far, it's because you liked this theory, right? As crazy as it is.
Aren't good theories like that? Aren't they as crazy as possible, as far-fetched as possible? When it's well-founded, it's good.
