My Great-Great Grandmother was onboard the Titanic. She booked in 3rd Class and booked so late she wasn’t even on the manifest. Her cabin was oddly shaped and she didn’t even feel the impact. When a steward knocked on her door, she didn’t even know how to put the lifevest on and took it with her to the lounge where she sat and sat and got the assistance of some man. She was one of the first to arrive and saw it quickly fill with others. Realising it was becoming serious, she went up the staircase and out onto the stern and climbed a ladder up to the boat deck, before being helped into Lifeboat 14 and watched in horror as men tried to board and were halted. After being lowered, she said nothing and could only be grateful she was in the lifeboat and was transferred to Lifeboat 10 before being saved. After the sinking, she returned to Europe and didn’t once blame those from the crew or the wealthy for the incident
Ur Grandmother is a legend
I can only imagine, amazing. I'll listen to her all day.😊💯
My relative Florence Kate Thorneycroft was in the same lifeboat. Lifeboat 10.
I love reading these stories, thanks a lot for sharing.

Just two words.. Charles Joughin, survived that night swimming in the frozen water for nearly 3 hours, whiskey helped him, a lot. He burnt every survive record in cold water, by far. He claimed didn't suffer cold so much... His story made my day
& he helped people get on board
that story is not really trustworthy tough as its impossible to survive there so long even with alcohol
i d rather say that he was drunk and not aware of the time
His story is absolutely trustworthy and the alcohol acted like antifreeze in his body.
Alcohol thins the blood and you die from cold faster.

The real tragedy of the third class passengers is that not all of them spoke great English, so they were a little out of the loop on what was happening and when, and they still tried to save their belongings in their suitcases as it was all the possessions they had to start their new life in America. I remember one scene in the movie where this woman has a baby and says “Cap-i-tan, I don’t know where to go” as she is holding her baby. Absolutely heartbreaking
The “one posh kid” was a girl, Loraine Allison. She was two years old, it’s a very tragic and mysterious story worthy of its own video.
?
Really? It's the same exact video, she went into the water and either froze to death or drowned why do you need a separate video for something that was literally just explained to you?

Charles Joughin, the chief baker on the Titanic, spent two hours in the water until he got on Collapsible B. He drank large portions of brandy, acting like an anti-freezing, and kept his hair dry after the Titanic sank. This saved his life, despite his legs and feet getting swollen.
He didn’t really get onto Collapsible B. He swam to it, but there was no room for him on it so those men who were on it helped pull him part way out of the water for a little while and eventually he decided to swim away and later made it into another lifeboat.

I forgot where, but there's a Titanic Museum in America where you can put your hand in water as cold as it was that night. It doesn't take long to lose feeling and that revelation makes me so sad to know these people suffered like this
When I was a kid there was a section of "Ripley's Aquarium" in Gatlinburg, TN that was basically a mini-museum, they had those tubes. Now there's a massive Titanic-shaped museum that's actually built half-scale to the real thing stationed in Pigeon Forge (basically still Gatlinburg). Crazy thing is, a giant Titanic replica/museum doesn't even seem out-of-]place in the whimsical lands of Gatlinburg/Pigeon Forge 😂
Oh I’ve been there it’s in Pittsburg right?
There's also one in Branson, MO
Most of the lifeboats didn't return to the scene of the sinking out of fear of being swamped by swimmers.
In hindsight, the saddest aspect of that is that those in the lifeboats actually didn't need to fear being swamped, because the effects of hypothermia meant most of those in the water became unable to move or even shout for help after fifteen minutes.
A cowardly moment they would take to their own graves.
@@troubledsole9104easy to say in hindsight and behind a screen
@@troubledsole9104you would most likely do the same if you were in those shoes. In desperate situations, these things can happen 🤷🏾♀️
I just learned this recently: the reason there weren't enough lifeboats on the Titanic is because back in 1912 they were just little rowboats, they were meant to transport people from a sinking vessel onto a rescue ship, they're not meant to just hold a bunch of people and sit in the ocean. when the titanic hit the iceberg there was a ship that was only 12 miles away, the only reason it didn't show up was because it was so late that they had already turned off their wireless radio system for the night.
I’m Rebecca and i am a forex assistant I give u tips in trading very well on forex
Not true: The Titanic communicated with other ships until the very end. The closest ship was 40 miles (2 hours) away and was not able to make it in time.
They didn't have enough lifeboats because they thought too many (enough for all passengers) made the ship look bad, like covered up the beauty and would 'worry the passengers'. Plus too many would 'ruin the ""fact"" that she was unsinkable'. Oh hindsight. :'(
They got in huge trouble for that decision but it mandated enough lifeboats on future ships the world over after the sinking. That deadly mistake and omission would never happen again.
@@SariennMusic73 if that was the case then couldn't they have just brought a couple extra collapsible boats?
@@Rosercoaster Unless you're specifically talking about the ships Titanic was in contact with, not true, as the California was the closest ship -- roughly six miles away. There's claims of officers and crew on the California that saw flares go up on the horizon from the Titanic, but thought it was just a celebration. Their radio operator signed off for the night prior to Titanic's stress calls.
I fell in lake Michigan in January I'n 2005, I will say it's a feeling I will never forget and I do not wish it on anyone. I couldn't move and almost drowned because my arms locked up but I forced myself to move and I made it.
I fell in a frozen river in NH once as a kid while playing with my brother and a friend. I managed to walk about 4 steps after my friend pulled out, so painful I probably would’ve died right on the spot if the neighborhood lady hadn’t literally showed up with a plastic sled and dragged me to her house and warmed me up. Scary stuff to remember. Especially now as an adult with kids.
I think I would be dead of heart attack before even getting to the water! 😂

@@iremk this could happen in current day and they would still say Save The Women & Children First. That loud and annoying feminist that's independent and don't Need No Man would quickly put her hair in pigtails and say I'm just a girl Someone Save Me😂
@@screambro I don’t think that’s true. In 2012 an Italian cruise ship The Costa Concordia struck some rocks and started sinking. I wasn’t there but I was very involved in the whole story as it wasn’t far from where I lived and I’m pretty sure that no “discrimination” was made when saving people, they were just getting everyone out of there as soon as possible!
I feel like a lot of Titanic videos focuses on the victims who froze in the water but rarely on the people who were still trapped inside the boat and never even had the chance to make it on the deck
What’s horrifying to think about is some people literally suffocated in the cold. According to Don Lynch (Titanic historian) It’s like taking a shower and if suddenly the water turns ice cold, you gasp and don’t draw air into your lungs properly
I commented on some video somewhere, that there is a condition called "crush asphyxia" (or something like that) where you can't move, even to inhale, so you suffocate. It usually happens when someone is caught up in a panicing crowd, and the crush of people around you is so thick that you can't breath. Happens a lot in theater fires, club fires, etc.

Oof, that would definitely be scary and uncomfortable to say the least. IIRC James Cameron had his water tanks at roughly 50-60 degrees but prolonged exposure landed several people with mild hypothermia.
Titanic: I can't be sunk!
Iceberg:...and I took that personal.
They dared God to sink it.
No they said ..." NOT EVEN GOD CAN SINK THIS" GOD took it personal
The one child that died was the result of a serious understanding. Her little brother was taken into a lifeboat by the family’s maid, but the mother and the father didn’t know this. They spent most of the sinking below decks looking for him. By the time they gave up to try to save themselves, all the boats were gone.
Thats so sad.

After a lot of research I've done on the Titanic, I learned even if they had lifeboats for every passenger there wouldn't have been enough time to load everyone anyway. Also alot of the reason the life boats weren't at full capacity is due to people thinking the ship couldn't sink. Also, they were scared to be lowered into a lifeboat. As the titanic sank a group of men were trying to get a life boat loose from on the top of the captains quarters. When they lowered it the boat flipped upside down and at the same time the water reached the deck. Several men clung to the upside lifeboat and survived the sinking.
Exactly, I think the only thing that could have been don’t differently is that the boats could have gone back and loaded more people. But yeah there wasn’t enough time to load more people than they did. Also hindsight is a wonderful thing, being there in that moment you just try and save as many. No one could avoid the inevitable at that moment which was many we’re going to die. No matter what.
I went to the exhibit in Pigeon Forge, TN and the tour guide said that the lifeboats could have filed more people, but they were misusing the seats. The seats could have fit more people if they were sitting back to back, opposed to just a long line of people for each row. So they could have saved more lives possibly.
I’ve never heard this theory before, but I must say it makes so much more sense. However, in emergency situations, most people aren’t able to think clearly and logically. That’s an interesting thought though nonetheless. Thanks for sharing.
Considereing many launched not even close to capacity a lot more could have been saved. I suspect they each could have gone a couple hundred pounds beyound official capacity. This certainly would not have come close to saving all but a lot more could have lived.
The problem was all of the disorder from the officers and the fact that many just would not get in at first. As the nose began to go under it became more difficult to launch the boats and maintaining control became difficult. The captain cancelled the life boat drill scheduled for early that morning.
Yeah, that’s common knowledge
@@sarahm.1632The sad part is they didn’t take the situation seriously enough at first. They lost valuable time.
@@troubledsole9104 yes I believe that. Plus they seemed to be panicked and some couldn’t decide what to do, go down with the ship, or get on the life boats. If anything,I hope the tragedy has taught us future generations what to do & what not to do.

The First class child that died was Lorraine Allison - a girl, not a boy!

- 3rd class mostly died not because they were held below, but because they couldn't find their way up to the boat deck.
- The mortality charts always divide they dead by class, but they always neglect the CREW, who made up vastly more deaths than the deaths from all classes combined. The absolute worst case was to be an electrician or a stoker or a trimmer.

All people should be treated the same way. Not just women and kids. What the people did with no men on the life boats broke my heart, that was not unfair in any way possible.
Agreed. The love in your heart is what matters most.
Thank you. I fully understand the reasons for the women and children first policy. However, I have always been very uncomfortable with the fact that men's very lives, through no fault of their own, come second. It applied then and seems to apply now in emergency situations. It just feels so unfair, even if it is justified. Far few people talk about or care about this fact. In debates about gender equality this should never be forgotten.
My great grandfather Albert Horswill was a crewmen on Titanic. He was ordered into lifeboat one by Officer Murdoch along with 6 other crewmen and 5 first class passengers. Sir Cosmo and Lucy Duff Gordon were accused by the press of bribing the crewmen on lifeboat one to avoid returning to the wreck to look for passengers. This was a lie, it was just a kind gesture to compensate the crewmen for lost wages.
I don't know what's worse: Dying or living with the guilt. Or dying or watching people scream and die?
Or how about dying with many people around you getting injured and poisoned?
So the brain is like "ok I will get more blood to my head to keep suffering a little longer".
The brain is programmed to survive for as long as possible
 what language is it programmed in?.
6 people survived in the water
Look up Charles Joughin. He survived the cold water by drinking alcohol.
He was the baker, right? I remember that from the movie.
the head chef
LOTS of alcohol.
Was he fat? Because that is probably one of the only ways to keep heat in these waters. Alcohol doesn't help, it makes it worse (you lose heat faster). I guess that be drinking he was in less shock, and his heart pumped slower so that may have helped as well.
imagine being in pitch black, the rocky waves filled with debris and freezing to death (not to mention who wouldn't be afraid of drowning in sea). RIP 💛
I almost pity the people in the boats more than the people in the water at the time of the sinking... never mind watching the horror show of people dropping overboard and this solid unsinkable ship sinking, but hearing over a thousand people screaming and thrashing around once the ship was gone is unimaginable to me. I'll stop saying people now lol and obviously the ones in the water are the unfortunate souls... imagine being in one of those lifeboats or even worse, being on the Carpathia and coming across this carnage... RIP indeed
Well, you could have unlocked the life hack of being so fat you're naturally buoyant enough to float, in which case having a great white go "yummy!" because you're so fat is a more frightening possibility than drowning. But hypothermia gives you a horrible headache, I don't recommend it.

@@Jp-nj3rp being there is not the only way to confirm deaths. They have record of the people that survived and they know the people that bought tickets.
@@usernametaken7738 nope we dont know how exactly titanic first yes they have records but ite not accurste since its a hundred year ago
@@gjeraldh2989 yes but i am talking about who died and who survived bc u dont know who died in the boats
Rest in peace to all the people that lost lost their lives on the Titanic! They will forever be in our hearts 😪
if i didn't make it onto a life boat i'd def give White Star Lines a 1-star yelp review from my phone while i waited to drown
True, certain segments of the uk is obsessed with class. Not much has changed.
My great grandmother survived, she was young, and still alive now, She tells me fascinating stories, and tells me how cold and bitter the water was, she was so lucky to have a lifeboat, otherwise, I wouldn’t b here now.
the last (known) living survivor of the Titanic passed in 2009, if your great-grandmother is still alive you could write to the Titanic Historical Society!!
@@junyiw4369 some titanic passengers aren't registered
@@wandasairconditioner4781 mhm, that's why i said "last known". 1912 was a long time ago, and i agree that it was unlikely they kept track of all passengers on board.
Mm, if this was true your great-grandmother would be pushing 115.
You madame, (or sir) are a liar. You are awarded no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
@@xavierbeurre8064 i dont think so how did you get 115? plus, there's an old women in my country who's 120, if she registered she could be the second oldest women in the world. some people just aren't registered
I was really hoping the story would end well for this guy, what a relief.
Man I feel old, I remember when "Filter-less Cigarettes" were called "Non-filter Cigarettes"
My great grandfather was sat in the first class smoking room 2 hours and 30 mins before the boat fully sank. His hearing isn’t very great so as the screams got closer he started to hear people perishing and after that he ran out and he luckily was given a chance on a lifeboat and managed to survive. He died in 2008 now me with all his belongings.
Like if you’re here because of the titan implosion
Fun Fact, the length of the movie is the exact length ships like titanic would sink
Frfr
"Which you know because you watched the movie 15 times." I feel judged.
Titanic lore aside.. I’d definitely ‘off’ myself before I hit that freezing cold water
This is very cool information. But I try to imagine how it was in real time. Where nobody knew for sure what their gates would be.
Absolutely terrifying, I can't even imagine. Going numb in the water making your brain shut down would almost be a relief

if you look at the deck plans, it's very confusing to try to find your way up from lower in the ship.
I wonder how different the results would have been if they had started making makeshift rafts by dismantling the upper decks of the ship. An hour or two with atleast 200 people working together might have been able to produce some amazing results, especially under the pressure of death.
You haven’t tried to fix something with your uncle and brother before have you?
It’s hard to tear up a deck
Yes they could have done it if each of them had taken oxy-acetylene cutting apparatus and a welding rig in their hand luggage. Easy.
I have a box of wood flooring in my basement, already cleanly dismantled. Exactly how do I build a raft out of it without nails in the middle of a life-or-death emergency? And don’t say rope. Let’s put on our thinking caps, kids.
It's disturbing to know that about 1,500 thousand people on board the Titanic couldn't jump into a lifeboat and suffered the most painful death we could imagine.
Hypothermia deaths are supposedly not that bad, almost like going to (eternal) sleep.
0:45 Why did you draw the ship to look like a modern cruise liner😂🤦🏽♂️
*WOMAN AND CHILDREN FIRST*
Them: smiling.
Rest in Peace to everyone who dead in Titanic 🥺
To think if Rose had only budged up on that board she could have saved Jack. 🥶🤔
My 4x great uncle Charles John hurst was aboard the titanic but he died from literally being blown up by the boilers and long side on the boat with him was his 4 cousins who are distance relatives of mine I don’t know the name of 2 but the other 2 were called Charles Edward judd and Walter hurst and they survived as they stood on top of collapsible boat b, so they were pretty lucky I guess
And to add on they all worked in the boiler room so they weren’t there for like travelling and stuff
no freaking way, i’ve been watching videos about titanic all day!! great video!
Why you cappin bro, video had only been out for a minute
Nobody cares
What still fails to amaze me is the fact that they only had 7 life boats even with more than 2 thousand passengers.
Stupidity at its best
Dafuq? Where did you get your information from because the Titanic had 20 lifeboats.
Obviously not enough, but you should still fact-check before posting false info.
They had 7 lifeboats for the same reason they were speeding and ignoring telegrams, ignorance, status, and human error….causing so many to die
They had 14 instead of 48
I think their reasoning was "the Titanic was a lifeboat in its own right"
Hypothermia is a great way to go. You just slow down, drift off and thats it. the worst is getting into the first stage. After you hit the second its gets easier
Oddly enough it's kind of like drowning. The first few seconds are the worst, but after that your golden.
That would be my worst nightmare. I would punch out the Master At Arms for holding me back.
