+229 Romance should always take second place to usefulness. For example, depending on his level of fitness, Jack may have been able to survive longer if he tread water to increase metabolism, body temperature and ability to survive in cold water instead of keeping still a holding Rose's hand. amirite?

Until the example starts I agree, I could be mistaken but I think you're severely underestimating how cold the water was.

I said longer. One second is still longer, and the amount of energy generated probably would have let him survive a few more minutes with Rose.

Yes, but in temperatures that low, especially bearing in mind all his clothes are waterlogged, he wouldn't have been able to move.

I always figured he could have climbed on top of some other debris.

You don't understand the concept of "freezing water", do you?
