Portrayed in the film by Kathy Bates, the Unsinkable Molly Brown was one of the most famous Titanic survivors. She is shown as pleading with the crew members to return to the site of the shipwreck and help those drowning and freezing in the water.

First Officer Will Murdoch is portrayed as a villain of sorts in the film. He shoots two people, including Jack’s friend Tommy, just for trying to get on a lifeboat, and then takes his own life out of guilt. Cameron added this because it made for an interesting story, not because it was historically accurate.

Leaving aside the ghoulishness of this ghastly idea... it's not like individual people would be able to opt in or opt out of this. The powerful will be making a decision to kill the vulnerable whether the vulnerable are willing to die or not.

The beagle is a breed of small hound that is similar in appearance to the much larger foxhound. The beagle is a scent hound, developed primarily for hunting hare (beagling). Possessing a great sense of smell and superior tracking instincts, the beagle is the primary breed used as detection dogs for prohibited agricultural imports and foodstuffs in quarantine around the world. The beagle is intelligent. It is a popular pet due to its size, good temper, and a lack of inherited health problems.

The modern breed was developed in Great Britain around the 1830s from several breeds, including the Talbot Hound, the North Country Beagle, the Southern Hound, and possibly the Harrier.

Cook died on a beach in Hawaii on February 14 1779, stabbed in the neck by an islander, in a skirmish which destroyed the previously excellent and profitable relations between the Hawaiians and the British sailors.

Over the years, many other infectious diseases and illnesses such as measles, chicken pox, polio and tuberculosis killed thousands of Hawaiians. By Swanson's estimates, 1-in-17 Native Hawaiians had died within two years of Cook's arrival.

Cook disproved the existence of Terra Australis, a fabled southern continent. Cook's voyages helped guide generations of explorers and provided the first accurate map of the Pacific.
