Mr Ray is my favorit Steward on the ship, he had a very interesting story in my opinion.
He even lived until 1977 and turned 97 years old! He was the second last crew member to die.
Amazing interview thanks so much. I did hear of him before..
Nos hizo gracia que bajara a buscar su abrigo, su cepillo de dientes, pañuelos que me dio mi mujer y set de afeitado. (Perfectamente podría ser yo) . Pero mucha gente cuando se ve en una situación de nervios actúa así. Que dios tenga en su gloria al Señor Frederick Dent Ray.
Unbelievable hearing this story from a survivor
No it’s totally believable. Unbelievable would be if someone got an interview from one that didn’t survive the accident

"This ships going down!!"
"One second good chap I need to get my toothbrush first. She'll have to wait!"
It shouldn't be funny, but the way he explained all the people needed to convince and "hoist" the "very fat lady" into the boat made me smile
Amazing
I thought they didn't wake up the passengers till after the ship stopped the 2nd time
Great share 💰🥂
Gotta keep history alive. It's amazing that I was alive during the time that a Titanic's passenger was alive. I feel it's my duty to make sure that the next generation knows this goes for all history. Our technology may end up passing Us by because it's electronic and it can be erased by a single solar flare. If you don't know the stories orally and traditionally then they die. All the lights must recompile history.
Very interesting.
What film / documentary is the footage in the background from?
A night to remember and Titanic 1997
@@Skeeters-sweater yes, and also some from the mini series that had Catherine Zeta Jones in it.
@@madnatty oh wow! I never heard of that before..will have to check it out.
Wow!
Why no one talks about thomas dillon titanic survival
Fascinating!
Titanic is such a legend and it was so long ago that we fail to realize that she was real and it really happened these interviews prove it
I don't think anyone thinks that. I think we all think it was so close & we can see her, touch, her, hear the passengers stories, see them on tape. The last one died in 2009. They saw 9/11.
It's the ironic cruelty of Murphys Law. Anything that can go wrong. Will. Always prepare yourself. That's why we are attracted to it. Hubris. Saying your unsinkable when you're not.
