      tinwoods well then maybe he should have been more precise and asked “what happened to YOU? What’s YOUR story?” And not just a plain “what happened” which is a general question and the reason she gave a sarcastic response. Idiot.

    This poor woman has probably been asked these questions a million times and is just sick of her horrific experience being exploited for entertainment. Let's be honest, that's the underlying reason why we're here. As much as we wouldn't like to admit it, we've romanticized the Titanic and are intrigued by this disaster and how it happened. We pull for all the details and there's something so interesting about a catastrophe that occurred during an era when society was so different and less accessible to the media - we forget how hellish it must've been for people involved.
    Eva Hart is a brave, well spoken survivor. A treasure to history buffs like you and me who want to know her perspective.

I agree she’s fascinating and how she kept patience with that robotic, vacuous interviewer I will never know. He’s a male version of the Stepford wives. That has got to be a prime example of how NOT to conduct an interview. Well done Eva Hart.

The only thing that was not "certain" at that time. Was if the ship had broken apart or not, despite the survivors testimony, the inquiry had determined the ship went down in one piece. It wasn't until Robert Ballard discovered the wreckage in 1985 that it was put to rest, that she had indeed broken up like the survivors stated at the board of Inquiry.

He was not for a moment considering what is must be like for Eva Hart to have to revisit and relive the most terrifying thing that had ever happened to her and her family, an event in which her own father went down with the ship and for most of that night she thought her mother had also gone.

    The Titanic sunk because it ignored seven warning from other ships, the wireless operators were too busy sending electronic post cards for rich people. They told the warning ships to stop sending messages because it interfered with the post card transmissions The other ship told them they had seen a big iceburg, and in a field of iceburgs. They were warned to stop until morning. The Captain wanted to set the speed record so full speed ahead. After the crash the wireless operators sent frantic messages but the other ships turned their wireless off. One ship may have been as close as 8 miles away, it could have been there in minutes. The Titanic sunk because of arrogance.

    I love this lady. She's like, "DUH!" through the whole thing. Of course, I imagine she's had to repeat this story a few jillion times in her life. But also, she's just priceless in her response to the (cardboard) interviewer.

    A 7 year old is pretty much a baby still , must have felt terrifying for that poor child experiencing horror in the middle of the ocean at night without her mum and dad in a boat about to sink. God bless this lady glad she had a long life . Her little 7 year old spirit lives on

    As a former US Coastguardsman I am touched when she replied why her father didn't get into a lifeboat. "Why?" she says almost aghast at the question. "Well you know the rules of the sea, don't you? Women and children first."

      @@ryangenia4974 I don't find anything bad about having women go first before men. That kind of rule has spanned for god knows how long. The bad thing is to ONLY have women go onboard the lifeboats, which is what happened at the time of the sinking as a result of a misunderstanding amongst the crew.
