Here's where to watch 'Titanic: 25 Years Later.'

The main reason behind the special is to test the theory that both Jack and Rose could have survived on the floating door that saved Rose's life at the end of Titanic. To test this theory, James Cameron hired two stunt performers the same estimated size and weight as Jack and Rose and brought them to the lab of New Zealand scientist Dr. Jim Cotter.

Dr. Cotter's area of research is how cold affects the human body. Together, James, the stunt team, and Dr. Cotter created a replica of the scenario from the movie to test whether Jack would have been able to float on the door with Rose.

If you didn't catch the special live on Feb. 5, 2023, at 9 p.m. ET on National Geographic, great news! Titanic: 25 Years Later is available for streaming on Hulu as well as Fubo TV and Direct TV Stream.
