Sigh...Violet Jessop... Beautiful young lady. I don't know if having a crush on someone from 100 years in the past is the height of mental health, but then I don't recall ever being accused of sanity...
So great. Love your videos - I’m fascinated by how those on the titanic, who clearly survived - lived out their lives - as well as those associated with the titanic. I just found out the young boy who held the Titanic Disaster Great Loss Of Life newspaper, Ned Parfett , died in world war 1 never knowing the picture he was in is iconic - or did he even know there was a picture. More please more. Do you have a patreon? Would also love to hear more about Jack Thayer and Edith Russell so many more that I have no clue about. Thank you for all your hard work
Thank you for the comment. It’s interesting you should mention Jack Thayer, his story has always stood out to me, he’s on my list of people to feature.
I'm glad to see there's other Titanic nerds out there. I've been obsessed with it since my parents bought me a book called Chronicles of the 20th century when I was around 6 years old and there's still always new things I'm finding out 30 years later.
I’m a Titanic enthusiast and just found your channel. I’m watching all the episodes now. I don’t understand why you don’t have 100k followers..Your videos are amazing! We have the same birthday so..happy early birthday! 🥳 *SUBSCRIBED*
Thank you for the comment. I’m glad you liked the episode. I can only dream of having 100k subs. My passion has always been Titanic and I love making my videos so I’m just happy people like the content.
I really like the video you did on Ismay. I feel the same way. Hearst made him the villain in the papers and it continued ever since. Ismay did nothing I wouldn't have done. Thanks for all the episodes. Love your new channel!
How nice this tribute to Violett is. I agree with previous comment that while Molly Brown was courageous, the "unsinkable" title obviously belongs with Violett! I'm going to read her memoirs. Thanks!
Excellent, and very familiar. Having seen the film, and read Violet's book. I and my sister, who lived in Cambridge at that time, decided to try and find Violets Cottage. After an age, trying, the local village post Office gave us the info we needed. Back then , 2006 I think it was, the cottage looked far less modernised, and cleaned up. Accross the road, young green corn was about a meter high ,and came right down to the road, with no edging. The occupier of the cottage, was a mature man, who was very helpful, and invited us in; Again, the interior was far more rustic than shown in your photographs. The Garden too was a typical country Rose garden, with a pond, containing fish. The occupier said he'd had many visitors from all over the world, since the film and book came out. To our surprise, when i asked him were Violet was buried, he said in another village--( Hartest ) quite some miles away. We were also saddend to see that the grave , back then, was quite neglected. We cleared and cleaned it as best we could, and put some local flower's on it. It seems so fitting, that after all the publicity, that she should be so well hidden away and at rest.
Don’t forget the story of Mr Arthur John Priest who was another unsinkable he also survived no less then four shipwrecks including Titanic and Britannic he was also onboard Olympic when she collided with the Hawk
Why did the Brittanic sink after only two of the bulkheads filling up? Weren't they designed to stay afloat with as many as four breached to the Sea? Maybe I'm wrong or misunderstanding or something lol just asking. ✌
What a great question. I didn’t go into much detail surrounding the sinking as I plan to do a whole episode on it in the future. From my understanding, the explosion caused damaged to four compartments, as well as the damage to the watertight door between boiler room six and five. However it is still believed that the damage was not sufficient enough to sink her. Britannic was on her way to pick up wounded and her portholes on her many wards had been opened to ventilate them. Five minutes after the initially explosion the ship had submerged enough for the water to reach these open forward portholes and this sudden influx of water, combined with the damage was enough to sink her. It is believed.
@@BeyondTheTitanic That is correct; I read another book about Brittanic, and that was the reason given for the very quick sinking, As you said, they had only just opened all these Porthole windows ( not a 5 minute job) and when the unofficial call to abandone ship came, the windows were not the first thing to think of.
ruclips.net/video/uYrnevYl5-I/видео.html you’ve probably already heard this audio interview with Violet Jessop, but just in case you haven’t here’s the link. It was uploaded just two weeks ago and I only just stumbled upon it. Instantly thought of your episode on her! Here she mostly talks about her experience on Britannic when she sank but does also talk a bit about her experience on Titanic as well. It’s crazy to actually hear her voice here! I never thought I’d hear her voice! It’s an amazing interview 🙏 hope you’re well 🙏
Yes I came across it during my research for this episode and I was blown away to actually hear her voice, it’s crazy, I was going to mention it in this episode but unfortunately the episode was long enough and I felt I couldn’t really fit anymore in.

Love everything Titanic. Your videos are very 'watchable', I think you are a really great presenter! Keep them coming 🙂

Your videos and stories are so interesting. I really enjoy watching them.
I’m so pleased you like them. Thank you for the comment 😁
Incredible story! She was a gorgeous woman.
Awesome video I love your humor 😂
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it 👍🏻
Yet another well narrated video on your part. Looking forward to seeing more like this.
Thank you. I’m glad you enjoyed it 😁
“I had the same problem”. 3:20 😂 Made me subscribe, lol. Second vid of yours I’ve watched so far. ❤
Some years ago, I read a book on the life of violet … she was amazing.
Everyone like to call Molly brown unsinkable but no offense to her but violett jessop was truly unsinkable and was an amazing woman
100% agreed with you.
A beautiful tribute to Violet. Well done. Thank you.
I'm glad to see there's other Titanic nerds out there. I've been obsessed with it since my parents bought me a book called Chronicles of the 20th century when I was around 6 years old and there's still always new things I'm finding out 30 years later.
Same how it happened for me. I got a book when I was about 9 and since then….obsessed.
I'm absolutely LOVING this series!
Thanks so much.
Great channel, glad I found it! Well done!!

She must have trusted the white star line!

I love how you film in cemeteries. They are very peaceful… especially very old ones. 😌

That sounds awesome. Glad you enjoyed the video.
What an amazing lady. There was a stoker that also survived all three incidents named Arthur John Priest.
And Priest survived two further ship sinkings! Unfortunately it meant he couldn't get further employment because he was seen as unlucky.
Well done. ❤
Love these documentaries. You do fantastic work. Keep it up!
Great story, I never knew who Violet was .
Don’t forget the story of Mr Arthur John Priest who was another unsinkable he also survived no less then four shipwrecks including Titanic and Britannic he was also onboard Olympic when she collided with the Hawk
Love all your videos 👍🏽
Thank you so much 😁

I read the book of her amazing life
When is episode 4?
Episode four is coming hopefully some time in the new year.
She should've became a maid. Surviving the Titanic and saving a baby looks good on any resume.
She worked at sea for over 20 years
Was that Miss Eva Hart in the photo with Violet?
Yes I believe so.
