As for the viral video, it came from"Ghosts of the Abyss," a 2003 3D documentary directed by Cameron that provides viewers with never-before-seen glimpses of the remains of Titanic.
Near the end of"Ghosts of the Abyss," Paxton announces the news of the terrorist attacks just as Cameron is climbing out of a sub. It's unclear if Paxton had also just returned to the surface minutes or hours earlier in a separate sub. Earlier in the documentary, Paxton and Cameron were shown going down to the wreckage of the Titanic in two different subs, each of which could hold three people.
After the rescue, one of Cameron's team grins into the camera aboard a minisub and announces the rescue time:"6:16, Sept. 11, 2001." Cameron and the crew surfaced hours later to the news of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Sept. 11 also prompted Cameron to scrap a sequel to"True Lies," his comic spy thriller with Arnold Schwarzenegger, star of the"Terminator" movies.
