She had to have been a very young kid when it sank. Can you imagine being a young child and seeing that happen?? And hearing the screams?
She was 23 when Titanic sank. She was 91 when she did this interview. Her husband also survived the disaster
@@LongJumpingSurprise wow
Great video, thank god she was recorded. Living history. Never heard the "ice was everywhere" thing though. Interesting.
thats just brutal, Hearing the gunshots, screams, that definitely caused infinite trauma for her.
That’s when men were men!
I’m so happy you got this interview. Titanic is such a horrific but also beautiful story to know we are all so intrigued and to be able to see interviews like this. And when I say beautiful, (I don’t mean to say that it’s anything beautiful about tons of people getting their lives lost.) the beauty is that over 100 years we still care
Most men unfortunately had to be threatened by other men to let the women and children onto the lifeboats first. Most of the men who survived jumped on top of women and children from a height, crushing them and breaking women's ribs.
The depths of the PTSD would have tortured the survivors til death . I can’t imagine all of it… jumping in the ice cold water and staying that cold until you died or were rescued… I can’t imagine
Absolutely fascinating, so glad we have these testimonies.
Those were real Man rowing that little boat out! Even though they were scared and cold they kept pushing! God blessed their souls.
Words need to be written out. Can't understand her.
