      Wealthy people who could afford private doctors and had a better standard of living tended to live a lot longer back then, things are far more equal these days.
      If you were an average Joe born in the 1880s, you could expect to have lived until you were 45-50, and have a life of back breaking labour 12 hours a day after an hour's walk to work, a Poor diet, if you had bad eyesight you lived with it, if you had a bad tooth you either paid a barber to rip it out or do it yourself.
      Infections or injuries that required medical treatment, forget it unless you paid for a private doctor or surgeon, no antibiotics, anti inflammatory or blood thinning tablets.
      And being involved in hard labour, work injuries were common, you couldn't work you couldn't earn, you begged borrowed or stole, or stumbled around crippled and died in pain on a bench somewhere.
      No compensation, no benefits, no pensions, no nothing.
      All these and many other pitfalls were largely avoided by the wealthy.
      Tracing my family tree back to the early 1700s I can find dozens of relatives who died in their late 40s, and dozens of child deaths " under 5 year's old.
      Out of about 200 names from 1800-1920 close to 50% died before they were 50 year's old, and about 25 before they were 5.
      Then as we progress through the first part of the 20th century infant deaths quickly slow down, life expectancy increases by 10-15 year's over the first half of the 20th century.
      It's now at about 80, but this is purely an average but a high % make it to this age, compared to just 2% back in the late Victorian time

      Edith Rosenbaum was pretentious, but she's one of the few Titanic survivors whose accounts you can trust with certainty. A lot of other survivors were so old and senile in their interviews during the 70s and 80s, that they were incoherent at times, but here she was at 90 giving a veritable account of what happened.

      Today children don't even know how to write their names in cursive or write an essay with paper and pen and that's no exaggeration. It's traumatic how much society has changed since I was a child (I'm 48). Remember, my age and older didn't grow up with even TV, or Cable (what was available was weak at best if your parents Even allowed it in the house), smartphones, computer, iPad, or streaming music or movies, or video console games (didn't really exist before 2000 & I was married with 2 children, a FT job, & when 2000 came around, i had no time or desire for this internet thing. But we knew how to tell stories, we knew how to listen to others, we knew how to entertain ourselves when nothing like today existed and Even our phones Hung on a wall inside your house and weren't movable and so we learned from our parents and grandparents how to listen, and sit still to hear what we now call podcasts today but they told them over an AM/FM radio that had to plug in a wall and has to have an antenna that got signal to relay that storytime to us plus our great ancestors told us fascinating probably half false or embellished stories that I think we thought were hiring back then but today we listen with an easy so pitched on their story in fear that we may never have that again and it's happening. Storytime isn't what it used to be. I know we can't go backwards but if we could, I would not allow technology into my family's lives. Actually I didn't, it was society that put those things in my families lives and eventually ours and now we can't live everyday without these ridiculous gadgets that destroy us but help us on the way to destruction, how peachy is that?!

    I have heard many stories from survivors of the titanic & they said that in fact, music was played during the sinking & went right on to the bitter end! I believe them! I do not mean to speak negatively of Ms Russell but I saw a much longer interview from her & she was a rich woman who I believe looked down on those not as “fortunate” as she & did not give them any credit. Or perhaps she was distracted by all the goings on or concerned about her 19 keys that fit her 19 trunks. However it may have been, I believe the music played & soothed the people going through such a tragic ordeal!

      Meh, to be fair, eyewitness accounts are some of the most unreliable forms of evidence. She could very well have never heard any music. But it doesn't mean there wasn't any. Or she could have simply blocked it out, forgotten it. Plus she specifically said she doesn't doubt the band played or that the others who said they heard it, just that it wasn't playing "as it went down." The other guy said he didn't hear music but saw them standing about with instruments in hand... Just differing perceptions of an uber dynamic and chaotic situation.

    • @coachmarc2002

      No way would music be soothing to people who are about to either freeze to death or drown. You mean to tell me someone said "oh God there's no more life boats left! We're going down with this ship." But just then someone else replied "well at least the band is playing some very nice music."

    The class system thing is not just about lower classes being seen as more expandable citizens (although yes, that is true to some degree). It's also about the sense of responsibility that crew had towards their passengers. The lower classes on that boat were people hired specifically to ensure safety and comfort of the others, and they took their duty seriously. This is not to say they didn't want to live, or that there's something wrong with them trying to survive as well, or that it isn't a raging shame there weren't enough life boats for every single soul on the ship. But there is also nobility, in the true sense of the word, in the sacrifice of those who felt themselves responsible for the well-being of others - and it includes every last dish washer and elevator boy as well as the captain.

      Apparently in her last years she was a very mean resident of the hotel she lived at in London. She’d threaten to sue anyone who bothered her, even those who delivered her food or mail. She also rarely let housekeeping in, and died in utter filth. Maybe because of some cognitive decline or just because she didn’t give a damn at the age of 95.. Edith Russel still lived one hell of an eventful, remarkable life.

      ssscyborg1987 don’t take it the wrong way, but she seemed like a woman of immense swagger and haughtiness, given her wealthy background and prominent occupation for a woman of her time. She was a 33 yr old first class passenger traveling solo, after all. Very intelligent and for the age of 90, when this documentary aired, had a remarkably vivid memory.

      OlympIC… She was damaged in a collision with HMS Hawke in September 1911, and was repaired and returned to service in November 1911. At that time, Titanic was far from finished, there was no finished ship to switch Olympic with.
      As for insurance, well, it would have been a bit pointless considering the fact that Titanic was underinsured.
