- Eva Hart remembers the night the Titanic hit the iceberg in this clip from a 1990 interview.
Full interview available on A NIGHT TO REMEMBER, out now on Blu-ray and DVD: www.criterion.c... - ภาพยนตร์และแอนิเมชัน
For those saying Eva Hart was not actually the last living survivor of the Titanic and say it was Millvina Dean, yes you're right. Eva died in 1995, meanwhile Millvina died in 2009. The difference is Eva had memories about the Titanic as she was 7 when it sank and Millvina was just 2 months old. Therefore, Eva was the last survivor who would recount what happened.
@@AnoNymous-dh2svi remember things when I was 5 lol its possible plus it was traumatic and lost her dad. It’s something she never forgot
@@FallenOrderx3 most adults (far beyond 21) barely remember anything before their teens, but major or random events from much earlier can stick with them
@@AnoNymous-dh2sv I remember plenty of things from when I was that age. Before, not much. Maybe some scattered memories.
@@AnoNymous-dh2svNo there's a huge difference

You can see despite her composure how much the recognition of her father not boarding the boat still hits her. It's unimaginable.
That's what stood out for me as well. She really only alluded to her father's death, without specifically saying he drowned or died, suggesting that even all those years later, it was still an incredibly painful loss for her.
You can see the trauma surfacing by how she shifts her entire position to huddled over/protecting her core as she gets closer to that point. Heartbreaking. Losing a parent has a profound effect on most people to begin with. Can’t imagine how losing one in this manner would’ve affected the course of one’s life.
Yup, dead on. Must've been so awful.
I can’t imagine the lifelong pain of loosing her dad. I am assuming he died. What a great father that he acted so quickly and precisely to get his little girl to safety. God bless her.
@@Welcome_To_Life It's *very* safe to assume he died, don't you think?
"if we had enough lifeboats, no one would die that night" bro i mean that just hurts:(
Yes
It also took a long time to deploy the boats for some reason so expect 12 hours to deploy
@Hunter Bridge The thing is even if they couldn’t deploy they still would have tried to stay on the lifeboats when the Titanic sank. That’s what happened with lifeboat A and C, both weren’t fully deployed but passengers/officers got on it when the Boat collapsed and 60+ people managed to survive.
I put more blame on the Captain as well as he didn’t clarify the urgency of the situation so passengers were still not getting on the boat after being told the ship was sinking. Undermanning the lifeboats was stupid and they ended up trying to recall them back but it was too late by then.
Less people would have died if more boats were loaded at full
Is this really true though?
They only had roughly 2 hours after the iceberg hit.
To launch 2200 people into lifeboats in that tiny amount of time which requires a lot of manpower would be difficult. Remember that the first lifeboats didn't even get launched well over an hour after the iceberg hit.
As a father I can't imagine the man's heartsickness whenever it was he realized he wasn't ever going to be able to see his precious baby girl again, and how much pain that would cause her.
So sad 😢 to lose a good, brave and noble father
I’d be more concerned with losing my life. I’d be plotting on how to escape.
They both probably saw each other again after they died.
Everyone who had an NDE will tell you that.
@@josephmarzullor u a father
😢
Notice that once she mentions that she would never see her father again, she quickly stops the narrative and starts complaining about the loss of lives. Her father’s death still haunted her.
Who cares about the narrative when all of those people were lost. Anyone would have felt the same if it was their father. This is so deeply tragic there is no words
@@lizvtaz6 Well,the narrative IS about the loss of lives !! So what are you complaining about?
@@lizvtaz6damn you evil . It’s from her perspective
Someone doesn't know what a narrative is.
@@FreshUnlimitedMusic No, I am not evil. I am angry that the original comment uses the word "complain" when anybody would be more interested in the death of their own family members than about "the narrative". For me she did not stop the narrative she started talking about things that are more important. A lot of people seem to be misinterpreting my comment. I should have phrased it differently.
In the Titanic movie, jack represents the people who died and Rose represents the people who lost their loved ones.

Cool.
I knew Eva Hart, she was an amazing lady and quite formidable at times. Her recollection of events is very clear, but as a 7 year old undergoing such a traumatic event it would of course form an indelible memory that would last forever. God bless her.
She’s from a bloodline of sadistic sexual deviants and child killers.
This woman earned her rightful place in hell.
Sure you did
@@liqourspapi yes, that’s right.

I can only imagine these people were haunted by that night for the rest of their lives
Agreed it would be as bad as WW2 or Nam'
I bet many of the survivors went to therapy, if you could even get it back then
Especially eva...
@@MsVijay9999 She was young enough to not have a whole lot of understanding at the time, what was going on, to have a bad memories. If she had been a teenager, things would have been different for her.
@@JENDALL714 she was 7, I remember being 7. She had enough to be traumatized. If she where 1 or 2 maybe not.
It did occur to me this lady is rather tough and steely, but the sadness still remains buried beneath her poised face. Some things really are too hard to get over. You just live with it.
Yeah it's painful to see as it still haunted her. And now we are talking about the sub that imploded recently...so sad
@@billchief397those greedy billionaires got exactly what they deserved. LEAVE WELL ENOUGH ALONE!
These interviews are a priceless artefact. Generation after generation can learn about Titanic and vow never to make the same mistakes.
tech has improved since then😅now ships have radars installed in them to detect icebergs
If the Titanic had been equipped with sonar and radar technology, the tragedy would likely have not occurred. However, sonar was still in the experimental stage in 1912, and the development of radar was still more than 20 years in the future.
@@Vegan_scorpiooNo duhh
I guess humans dont learn. They will always put their own self before the lives of others
That's true the next time I'm captaining a boat with 2000 people on it I'll be sure to remember this interview!
Anyone remember that scene in Titanic where the father put his wife & two little girls into the lifeboat, and the older girl was crying & said “Daddy, get in the boat!” And the father said “Don’t worry darling, it’s only goodbye for a little while … only for a little while!” Well THAT little girl was based on Eva Hart, and all the trauma she experienced @ that very moment! Poor girl NEVER realized that would be the last time she would ever see her father alive! 🥺 Anytime I watch that scene … oh man, I just completely fall apart! 😩😭
So sad. Never knew this😢
God Bless Eva Hart....always loved listening to her talk....sweet lady!
She was my nan's best friend when they lived in Ilford. Funnily enough, Eva's voice sounds like my nan's, which is quite spine tingling as I lost my nan 12 years ago.
Yes, I love to listen to her speak....Loved the Photographs of her as a little girl, when she sailed on the Titanic....she was a Sweet Little Girl!
I Love Susan Atkins Despite losing her father at a young age, she grew up to be a Magistrate! She was also a professional singer, which I expect is how she met my nan, who was the same.
+I Love Susan Atkins yes I also❤
I Love Susan Atkins I know right she tells the story so great and it keeps you on the edge of your seat
When speaking about the last memory of her father you can see the pain of reliving the trauma on her face and in her eyes. Its like through her gaze, she is back on the life boat with her mother and she sees the final moments with her father. That's truly heart breaking...
It never leaves you. 56 years since I survived but my father died at sea. In my mind; it is like it was yesterday.
Survived the titanic and the blitz. An incredible human life lived. RIP Eva.
no, she did not live the blitz wtf
@ihabhatim5825 What are you stupid or something? The Titanic sank in 1912 before WW1 so she even went through that as a child and then the Blitz 20 years later.
Darth, the Second World War
@ihabhatim5825 no she did you mong .😂😂😂😂🙈🙈🙈
And the first world war too.
Her father was really brave :'( and now her brave dad died *cries*

@@Ashley-cz7hv how do you bold your comments with a *
@@Don4L_ you do two of these around both ends** whenever you put one it makes it automatically bold so I put two
Her parents had a good marriage and that's evident by the fact that they didn't need to talk about "it". There was trust, emotional maturity and compassion for their daughter - they knew what was happening. They did a great job of remaining calm, so as not to instill panic in Eva.
Not talking about stuff doesn't seem very mature to me, but I get your point.
@@aicerg I just meant that in a crises, some partners in a marriage (and obviously good parents) can emotionally move from their own panic and think of their children who are there in the crises with them. If Eva hadn't been traveling with them, I'm sure words would have been exchanged. Attuned people can read body language. Some learn and communicate in a kinesthetic way (usually athletically inclined people). My father was an officer in the Navy and specialized in encryption and espionage (yes, really). He told me as a kid, that there are more ways to communicate than by talking. Sometimes people "feel" what you feel. He taught me to relax and know that you don't have to fill every moment or moments of silence with words and that others sometimes appreciate your presence but don't want any conversation - like when you're at a funeral or trying to comfort someone grieving. Words in those situations make things worse. As far as communication in a marriage, I do think people who are blessed with a good partnership (unbroken trust, respect and love) will trust the other when there is NO time for words, like in an emergency.
@@aicergYou dumbass..
Wow. She spoke with so much insight. Had there been enough lifeboats for everyone, it would’ve just been a sensational story in the newspaper about how the world’s most luxurious ship (of its time) sank in its maiden voyage, instead of being the tragic and alluring story it is today. So much so that even more than a hundred years later, people are still attracted to it. Some even take risky voyages in submersibles not designed to handle such great oceanic depths and its inhabitants die in a similar manner for similar reasons of hubris, etc.
I think the death toll would of been far less but I’m sure some still wouldn’t have made it. The panic and not enough time
@@WilleJamesHuff true. But again, it wouldn’t have been the tragedy that it was because the owners opted for optics and aesthetics over safety (which was why the ship didn’t have enough lifeboats for everyone on board). And the captain or the owners or whoever cared more about reaching NYC and beating a record (if I recall correctly) again instead of choosing safety and good common sense (traveling through the Atlantic at night in freezing temperatures called for a more cautious approach). The ship sank in about 2.5 hours. If they had a safety protocol in place, the crew would’ve known how to handle an emergency situation and could’ve gotten more or less all the people safely onto the lifeboats on time. Instead, they thought the Titanic was unsinkable so they initially didn’t even realize that the ship was sinking. It was only later when the lower compartments kept filling with water one after another, that the “watertight” doors couldn’t contain/stop, and the ship started weighing downwards in the front that they realized that the ship was sinking. So, they lost some precious time in that confusion as well. It’s good to have confidence, but they should’ve thought more practically that technically anything that floats can sink. They should’ve had a more modest or at least realistic perspective of things. I only say this so we can learn from the past, which is the whole point behind revisiting mistakes.
Definitely would have been deaths, particularly among the engineers and postal workers who were deep within the ship. But most would have lived for sure. Who thought that life boars for 800 was a good idea. If that was the case, why have any? No point. If the boat would need to use them, you’re saying over half will have to die no matter what.
@@adamlewis5700they didn't think they would need enough lifeboats for everyone because the idea was to use them to transport people to a rescue ship or to shore, and then bring the boats back to get more people. Titanic sank in about 2 and a half hours, which was a lot quicker than the people who designed the ship anticipated. They thought that the design of the ship with its watertight compartments would, in the event of a disaster, make it very difficult to sink the ship and if it did sink it would take a long time. They thought rescuers would have plenty of time to reach the ship. At any rate, even if they did have enough lifeboats for everyone, sending people into the frigid north Atlantic in the dark in flimsy boats was dangerous as well and some people succumbed to the cold before getting rescued. It was never plan A to evacuate everyone and have them sit out in the ocean for hours. Anyways, if they had more lifeboats they may not have had time to launch all of them because they required the use of a complex system of davits to lower the boats that the crew had little experience with. As it was, they never successfully launched all the lifeboats. The last two were cut free and floated into the water as the ship was going under.
"Remember that on not more than one day in twelve all the year round can you lower a boat. With the roll of the ship the boats swing and will be smashed to smithereens against the side of the ship. The boats then should not be overdone ... It might be fairly supposed that had the Titanic floated for twelve hours all might have been saved."
Admiral Lord Charles Beresford to the British House of Commons, one month after the disaster.
I doubt everyone would have survived. The evacuation was chaotic, and the crew hadn't practiced evacuating the passengers. Probably the best example of how unprepared they were is the fact that First Officer Murdoch and Second Officer Lightoller interpreted Captain Smith's order to evacuate women and children first differently. Fewer people would have died, but it still would have been a lot of people.
Miss you grandma. I think of this every day.
Hope she sees her dad again I’m sure she will and what a solid brave dude her old man was.
she died many years ago I'm sure they had a great Reunion

If Eva Hart was alive this past week, she would give absolute hell over the OceanGate tragedy. Can you imagine seeing her on the news? Giving a piece of her mind?
Not really, shes far too reserved for theatrics I would say.
Why would she care?
She already mentioned that the titanic is the grave of her father and many others and it should be left alone.
@@michaelbailey8729 She'd probably say "It seems to me this current event is of the same foolishness as the Titanic itself."
I am so genuinely curious why you think this. Cause it sounds pretty dumb in my head no offense to you. That is not her problem and doesn't relate?
We should all reconsider our relationship with our elders. They have been through a lifetime of happiness and pain. Their lessons should be heard. And they should be respected.
What an incredible intuition her Mother had. I don't know that I would have had the same realization of what was going on with the ship. Her Mother didn't let up. Then her Father did all the right things - moving quickly, wrapping her up, ensuring life boat passage. Wow.
God bless this woman's soul. She has really survived the worst by that time.
Her parents were amazing. Her mother was so intuitive.
So sad when she talked about her father staying behind, heartbreaking.
I lost my dad a year and a half ago he was 58 and I was 32. I see the pain on her face still allllll those years later I can tell she still aches for her dad . And the thought of me feeling this way for another 60+ years if I’m granted a long life like her terrifies me. I really enjoyed this interview I want to see the full interview now!!!!
She has a very interesting story voice 😁😃

I didn't take it that you were referring to her 'accent" as the "reply" below suggested. She has a wonderful "story voice" that draws the listener in and informs with interest!

after the submarine incident i’ve been down a rabbit hole
Aw... I love her voice & how she speaks. Shes so precious, ugh.. I feel so bad that she had to witness and go through that, at least she only passed of old age

@@emi0404 just the sounds and seeing all the dead bodies in the water ☹️😳
Wow, chilling indeed. Amazing to be a survivor of the Titanic. She was lucky.
I imagine it haunted the survivors from that night until their death.
I wish I had come across this video sooner or in my history classes in school. It gives you so much more than books and articles can, it makes it real, tangible, and injects emotion into the awful events that happened that night.
She died in 96 just a year before the movie came out. so sad she didn't get to see it
It's terribly sad that this remarkable lady had to lose her father on that fateful day, from this interview alone it is obvious what a strong woman she became in adulthood despite experiencing such tragic loss at a very young age, her example of such enduring fortitude and strength of character is truly a triumph over deep adversity and to be both respected greatly and applauded. 😃🙏💖💯
Well, that was riveting. She certainly can tell a story and pull you straight into the center of the drama.
This is priceless. I hope all are reunited happily and have a special place in Heaven for what they had endured.
i dont think i'll ever stop being fascinated, horrified, and enchanted all at the same time by the Titanic
Amazing interview from a survivor who vividly remembers how that horrific tragedy unfolded…
Jim jam pizza jam we will go for to such a, a
She is right we are still interested in the titanic
What a great, loving father.
That is compelling stuff. I remember her speaking about how the boat split in two; I believe she called it "the horror."
One thing i notice whoever survive after that tragedy. He or She lived a very long life mostly above 90
Not exactly some of the survivors died soon after the tragedy. I've been looking at quite a lot of videos about the sinking there were tons of survivors who lived shortly meeting unfortunate events like car hitting, food poisoning, being sick with a disease, suicides, etc.
you can say they instead of he or she, it's much easier, i promise.
@@damndorothea stop with your pronoun bs.
The chef who got drunk and rode the stern into the water survived and went on to be a chef on other cruise lines before passing on in 1956
Her Father was a very brave man, he did what was necessary to ensure his family's survival knowing he was likely doomed.
They went through surviving the titanic, world war 1, world war 2 and still survived to live the tail
It’s been 84 years but she remembers everything
Interview was in 1990, so it would've been 78 actually, but nonetheless, just remarkable that she could still recall everything in great detail.
@@interstate3551actually this was in 1992 and she was 87 by this time even if it was in 1990 she would have been 85 then because she died in 1996 at the age of 91
You can just tell right up to her death years later she was so frustrated with what happened that night and the amount of people that could of been saved
She never got over the anger at the pointless waste of life and who can blame her. Abandoning rapidly sinking ships in stormy seas is fraught with danger but Titanic was sinking slowly on a sea as calm as a millpond and evacuation should have been seamlessly easy. She always said if her father had died because of the force of nature (sunk in a storm) she could have reconciled herself to it but to die because of complacency and sheer human folly was unforgivable
Eva was one of two ladies than knew what was happening first hand. Excellent as usual she was with the accounting.
I’m glad she got to tell this story of what she remembered. It was tragic and horrible for what all the people on the titanic witnessed rest their souls❤️🙏
Eva hart has been blessed❤️

@@JoeVington She was trying too be funny but failed miserably at doing so.
@@spacetofu19 lol yep
True story: My grandfather and his sister were supposed to be on that voyage but were not allowed on. They failed some kind of physical. They were poor Hungarians and most likely would have gone down with the ship.
It seems her father instantly understood the gravity of the incident. That saved her life.
She wasn't the last, but she was one of the last with actual memories of the disaster. The rest were too young at the time to remember.
Heartbreak. Eva's analysis was spot on, and absolutely heartbreaking. Had they only had enough lifeboats...
The greatest love you can show is to lay down your life for your friends (John 15:13). What a brave, courageous and profoundly loving man her father was. She certainly knew what love was and meant. May they rest in peace.
Beautiful ❤
It's a simple choice as a loving parent. However, very hard to fathom the pain to let your children go for the last time.
Given the choice, my kids would go on to live over my own life every time.
Her father didn't get in because it was customary at that time to put women and children first. He didn't give up his place in the lifeboat for his wife and child, he did it for some other woman or child, because that was the social convention at the time.
A typo in your Scripture reference, Just FYI.
@@baptist1644 Thank you....!!!! Yes, it is John. I'll do a correction. Thanks again. (I must wear my glasses more when I'm typing!!)
The pain you can see on her face when she speaks about her father is so sad 😢
The last living survivor of the Titanic, Millvina Dean, died at the age of 97 in Southampton after catching pneumonia. As a two-month-old baby, Dean was the youngest passenger on board the giant liner when it sank on its maiden voyage with the loss of more than 1,500 lives
Wow! her last few statements still hold a lot of hurt and spoke volumes!
Following Eva Hart's death, there were 9 remaining survivors of the RMS Titanic disaster. The final survivor old enough to remember was Lillian Asplund who died in 2006 at the age of 99 and was 5 at the time of the sinking. The final survivor to die was Millvina Dean who died in 2009 at the age of 97 and was two months old at the time.
thank you for this. I knew the title of the video was inaccurate and came here for this comment 👍

Still just as traumatic if not more. It just makes them able to get in the boat and be calm for the moment. The moment they realize he's not following it'll be 10 times worse

Lucky lady indeed, especially having kept her razor sharp mind into old age.

@@dawniedunkie then there was Titan in 2023.
How moving and sad. And such a concise memory of what happened.
What a Dad!!!
It’s just so sad because she had to watch all the terrier with her family and even other strangers.😭
The first person that saw the iceberg was called Fedrick Fleet and when he survived more years passed and then his wife died and I think his son to then his brother evicted him then he fell into spiral depression and hanged himself in his brothers garden.
I only heard about this today. When the guy (Baldrick from Blackadder I think his name is Tony) said the man took his life and I saw the age he was from the gravestone I was shocked. Like 77. Poor gentleman.
I cannot imagine being a child and having to live through the fear of possibly dying in that frigid water or drowning. Also hearing the sounds of the boat breaking apart and just disappearing into the ocean as if it didn’t have life on it to carry them safely to America.
It brings tears to my eyes to hear your story. I'm so sorry you and your family went through that.
I'm sure she would appreciate your comment if she were still alive to read it.
Rest in peace angel ❤
🙏🙏🙏🙏she looks like an angel
Imagine seeing the things she's seen. Titanic, the Second World War and the Blitz. To live to tell the tale of both.
Its so interesting to hear the thought process of those that were on board before it sank.
Titanic has this majestic pull on the world and those who visit the titanic 2/..1/2 miles down in the harsh north Atlantic ocean.... There's something about titanic unlike any other ship .... Titanic will never fade from our memories ever .... Long after titanic is collapsed n just a memory ... May this ship be better protected against underwater explorations from such company s who exploit this majestic ship
Well said
Thank G-d she survived. This is the best version I've yet to hear told of the Titanic horror. She had an amazing father thats for sure! who made certain that she and his wife were safe. He had to have been very bright and his wife knew it because this persons mother did not have to ask a single question which resulted in precious time saved so that the woman we see in this video survived (as she stated so well). I honestly believe that no matter who / what it is that your personal beliefs are of who's up there (i.e. G-d, etc.) .. that her dad is the definition of what we should all strive to be or ultimately become in this world while we're here. What an amazing gift this lady is to us so that we can hear and see as she tells this very personal life event to us. Thank you also to the person who took the time to upload the video.
Amen 🙏🏻🕊️🙏🏻🕊️🙏🏻
And 5 more souls were clamed to the Titanic disaster. This June 19 2023 in an instant with an implosion of a submersible. RIP.
what's so heart breaking is how long it took the titanic to sink. this wasn't an instantaneous catastrophic collision. it took over 2 hours. the ONLY REASON so many people died, was because there weren't enough life boats. that's it.

@@ljones2087 mines too🤝🏾
Even now though it’s debatable whether they would’ve been able to save everybody with enough lifeboats, there were still two boats on the ship when it finally sunk so it took two hours to launch roughly 18 of 20 boats, add another 10 or 15 boats to that, yes they would’ve been there, but The whole process of getting them prepared, getting them hooked up, moving them out, lowering them down took so many men and so much time before they could move on to the next. Not because of negligence or anything, just the lifeboat technology at the time. Just a tragedy
I agree
Damn, I never knew that
Part of the reason it took so long was probably because they were trying to make sure women and children were in fact first. If they had enough lifeboats then that process could have gone a lot faster with less panic. Of course that's just speculation on my part though. There's no real way to know for sure.
WOAH THAT WAS FREAKING AWESOME STORY. YOU ARE LUCKY PEOPLE AND OTHERS .

Man, some of these survivors went through so many hardships before and after the sinking. Violet Jessop survived 2 other ship disasters and Dorothy Gibson was put into a Nazi prison.
Most of the healthy young male survivors served in the trenches of WW1. The war only broke out 2 years later.
