'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes': Did Proximus Ceaser survive the fall?

Has Proximus Ceaser died at the end of 'Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes'? Directed by Wes Ball, the film depicts Noa avenging the death of his father, he defeats Proximus with the help of his friends and pushes him from a mountain into an ocean flowing below. It is assumed that he has died, but his body has not been shown. Is it possible that he has survived the fall? It is an interesting point.

Does Proximus Ceaser survive?

Talking to 'The Hollywood Reporter', Kevin Durand said Proximus is a large-bodied chimpanzee, a big creature and his body would not disappear in thin air this way. He told the entertainment news outlet, "Does Proximus crawl out of that ocean? You didn’t see his body. You just saw a big splash. He’s a gigantic, magnificent creature, and given the density of that beast, did he make it? I don’t know … but I think that there is a chance in Apes."

But it is also a fact that Proximus falls from a height of 300 ft into a roaring ocean. Besides, before the fall, he was also attacked by eagles and was wounded. It is not likely that the chimpanzee might have survived the fall.

Proximus must survive

Kevin Durand also said, "He knew that apedom would end up in cages. They’d end up on plates, being eaten; they’d be slaughtered. They would also be experimented on in laboratories, and by any means necessary, as quickly as he could, he had to do what he had to do."

Kevin added that Proximus had to get all the apes of the land to his kingdom so that they could achieve this goal of getting this information. So, Proximus Ceaser must survive. Yet it is not clear and the next film may begin from this point.
