Fang Lang, a Chinese passenger aboard the Titanic, survived the ship's sinking in April 1912 by clinging to a floating door, a story that inspired a pivotal scene in James Cameron's 1997 film 'Titanic.' His grandson, Steven Fong, shared this remarkable tale, noting that Lang was one of only four passengers rescued from the icy Atlantic waters. The film depicts a similar scenario where Kate Winslet's character, Rose, survives on a door while Leonardo DiCaprio's character, Jack, does not, leading to heated debates among fans about the necessity of Jack's death. Despite the fame surrounding the Titanic, Lang reportedly never discussed his experience with his family. His legacy will be further explored in 'The Unsinkable,' a production set to premiere next year at the Perelman Performing Arts Center in New York City.
