- Interview from 1993.
Eva Hart (born 1905. Died 1996)
A great insight about the sinking of the Titanic. Amazing to hear her say "I saw that ship sink".
I'm not exactly sure when this was recorded but i think it was the early 1990's.
I uploaded this video almost 10 years ago .. I'm not sure why this is showing up on everyone's page as a recommended video lately. I don't pay to advertise or anything like that.
** The interview is from 1993
** The clips were taken from a VHS video I once found at the local public library, and i edited them together to create this video you see here.
** Eva Hart died in 1996 aged 91
** Rose in the movie was NOT based on this woman. Rose was a totally fictitious character.
Thanks for the info 👍
It came on my recommended 👁👄👁
I saw this on my recommendations too! it was nice to know some history about this though
It would have been good if she saw the movie but sadly she died a year before.
haha i just got this too but i enjoyed it lol
she'd be 115 this year. rest in peace ms eva hart.
Aww
BRING ME 115

@@makaveli4000 what??
She survived that and then had to live through WW1 AND WW2. What that woman has been through is more than we (hopefully) ever will.
She also lived through the Great Depression and also seeing the news about The Olympic (Titanics sister ship) sinking by a German U-Boat.
@@cyriloen8432 The Britannic was sunk, Olympic was scrapped after a long life at sea ;)
Glorious_Britannia ah, gotcha
Facts
I guess our generation will live the end of the world(Humanity)
This woman is amazing. Not only she had survived the Titanic disaster, she survived both World Wars! Unbelievable woman, she must have had a fantastic, unordinary life.
I have so much respect for her
Living through whole 3 genocide filled traumas isn't what i would call a fantastic life. She was lucky to survive sure, but at the cost of haunting memories. She literally said in this video that she would run out of the church when she heard the music that was played by the orchestra on the ship. We are happy that there was somebody to tell us the stories of these events, but at the cost of her peace. Its not fantastic.
@@croissant2882 It all depends on one's mentality.
You see, for me this is living and being the history.
And, of course, all of these events are terrible, but also all of them were unbelievably important and tought us huge lessons (tho, some people don't draw conclusions out of them)
Croissant ' i would say using the word ‘fantastic’ isn’t to say it was great, it’s to emphasise how important these issues , and this woman who has been through it all, that’s a big achievement and she is truly incredible for it, if that makes any sense
Determination, my friend.
I am starting to find her unbelievable.
The fact that she was only 7 when it happened and even all those years later she can recall every single moment shows how traumatic it was for her.
It was 7 years old
She was 7
No she was 7
7 years old .. I’m sure many of people can remember when they were 7 .. even before traumatic events
@Adia Aud - Long term memory of old people. Traumatic or not.
“The whole thing was a tribute to man’s arrogance.” That got me.
Yes!!!
@@oats2949 The word "man" is used to designate any or even all of the human race regardless of their sex or age. It is a general term, often short for "human" or "humanity."
100% RIGHT!!!
EDP's Headband it’s not man as in the Male species you idiot. It’s how they spoke back then. Hence why mankind is short for human kind.
Kekistani well, you can’t deny that all of this could’ve been prevented if it weren’t for man’s arrogance
Why does this show up 9 years later at corona time?
Honestly I hate reccomend nowadays that's all it does
LOL just happened to me and i had to like this comment XD
The ship would sink,The lack of boats, rich will live and poverty will die.
ik right XD
Hi im from 2045 sucks to be you
Imagine being her, sitting in a life boat, freezing cold, a little girl listening to screams and people drowning, knowing one of them was her own father. I can't imagine.
Same she is a tough one
She didn't know until later. But still a nightmare
@@jenniferpinto7044 no she knew. She said in another interview as she was sitting in that lifeboat she knew exactly what was happening to her father and knew she would never see him again.
@@ajmyrick8398 so horrific
so haunting..
"One life was worth more than the whole ship", what profound words.
People died building the ship
@@penguinsc477 Wow imagine how many lives this ship took. crazy!!
I thought exactly the same thing the moment she said it💓✨
Another ship had passed them, who knew they needed help ..., how could that be, horrid!
The whole thing was attribute to man's arrogance, so true.
Pride being the most evil, as in the warning given way before hitting the iceberg, except thought and said they were unbreakable.
Wow. I pray she has finally reunited with her daddy she lost that day...
I am sure she did!
What a beautiful sentiment. God bless you too?
Hopefully mama , dad and daughter is together happy , no more worries 💖
They said at the beginning she survived with her mother but her father died on the ship.
DJ Art Eva Hart died a few years ago. I believe the comment above is referring to her family being united wherever they may be. May they rest in peace. ❤️❤️
“No one should have died, One life is worth more than the whole ship surely” 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 no truer words ever spoke about the titanic..
melissa people who clap there hands when they speak deserve death
@I’m a fat piece of shit, You live up to your name
@I’m a fat piece of shit, You're very welcome
Even if those people had survived, they wouldn’t be alive today
BD Spiderman- ok? WHATS your point? They still would have been able to live a long happy life. Your view is terrible.
"One life is worth more than the entire ship" Absolutley well said.
Claudia Rodriguez yes
A human - No price
Titanic - almost 10 million dollars
Claudia Rodriguez most valuable comment and most truthful
Blank Blank humans are trash.
Claudia Rodriguez - then explain why people died building that ship.
“There was no panic until there were no more life boats, you could hear people running around on the deck and screaming.” That hit me, I can’t imagine how those people still onboard felt. 😢😢😢
Quarantine aye
@@21685_ lol no
Laura TERRIBLE
The stories we’ve heard about life boats being cast off half full weren’t true. (Titanic movie) 705 survivors, 800 possible… they were mostly completely full…
@@nunyabiz3557 yeah, even Eva says that her boat was so full they transferred ppl to other boats. She was transferred and separated from her mother, which I do not understand at all. HOW does THAT HAPPEN?!
"One life is worth more than the whole ship, surely." - Eva Hart
One life is nothing. All it takes is a few minutes of sex, 8-9 months of patience and voila a new life is born. But a Ship as beautiful as the Titanic is a once in a life time Queen of the Sea Vessels to exist and ever exist.
+KRYPTIC GAMING™ Wow, that's cold. Objects are nothing to human life. What would you think if it was one of your loved one? And how old are you? I bet you're pretty young.

yah ! bt I think the ppls' life as well as d ship was imp. Wat do u think?

I wanted to give that poor old lady a hug...She witnessed such a horrific tragedy.
the scary part is when it splits in half not exactly in half
And at such a young age as well!
+Karuminu2 She is as tough as nails and would probably say dont be so bloody soppy.
+Delll Lol. Right.
Delll No actually...did you even watch the video? she said it was horiffic...how do you think she remembers all those details? because she more than likely got ptsd from it.
Shes such a strong woman to be able to recall this without completely breaking down...
Pretty sure she's told this story countless times.
Umm. She was seven when this happened. I'm surprised that she can remember much of this at all.
why? it was a traumatic experience, people remember these things very clearly. besides, i have memories from my granddad who died when i was 2, it's not that uncommon to have very early memories i'm sure. that, or i really do have superhero memory, which would be the lamest superpower in the world
Vousie V 7 isn't that young, of course you would remember that night
Kathleen Charnley I agree
Her poor father. He was extremely brave for the sake of his wife and daughter. I hope her whole family is together now.
I want to know what was going through his head when the wife had a feeling and had to ask him twice not to go, when she felt the bump and he dismissed that too, and then to remain on the ship watching his wife and daughter boat away.
I wonder what the wife thought after so many damn warnings to her husband, to boat away and see him on there.
together today? they're definitely all dead lol?

@@SaucyWench7 You care. Hence why you're here replying to me 😂
"If a ship is torpedoed, that's war," she once said. "If it strikes a rock in a storm, that's nature. But just to die because there weren't enough lifeboats, that's ridiculous."
Thing is though even if they had enough lifeboats they still wouldn’t have been able to save everyone there just wasn’t enough time
@@Borninthe80s.I read that the ship sunk within 3 hrs perhaps it could have been ?
@@mariahmickens45862 hours and 40 minutes, With 48 lifeboats, like the RMS Lusitania had, it would take a long time to 1. Find out how badly the ship was damaged, 2. Prep the boats for lowering. and 3. Lower away the boats.
"The silence that followed...the world stood still that night." Bone chilling.
💔I know, absolutely horrifying
That really touched me because that silence would have been deafening.

@Savage Facts there was literally red paint on the iceberg that scraped off the titanic…lmao…there were 2 boats that were within 10miles of the titanic. one had their radios off and it’s thought that the other was doing illegal seal hunting so they tried to not be involved in order to not get caught. there was no missile lmfao…we’ve literally seen the ship and the destruction from the iceberg.

What a courageous loving father who gave his life for his wife and child, and he was certain they were safe, I can only imagine what was going through his mind, and I hope he was at peace. It was the era of the true gentlemen. Rip to all the victims and survivors. Their stories will continue to live on forever in our hearts.
Omg did he (in the movie) represent the real Eva's father?😭

That broke my heart in the film

"Surely one life is worth more than the whole ship."
-Eva Hart
Building a ship at that time cost lives too (8 to be precise), so that statement is incorrect, since they would've build a new one.
Anne Clark
She was an old hag who sold her children!
@@bizonkids9396 And how exactly does that contradict with her statement? People shouldn't be dying to build a ship either. Thank goodness the majority of people aren't contrarians like you are seemingly being, or else we would never grow or learn from anything
@@lucas5665 No need for insults. Improving the working conditions of a ship that size at that time was hard, if not impossible, simply because their was a lack of protective gear and laws and it took decades to changes that. It's sad, but it's the truth. Thousands of people spent years of their lives building that ship in horrible conditions and that's easy to forget, because they won't make a romantic movie about them.
Its not really true though. One womans life was though, woman and children had priority to get off. Men who tried to sneak off were shot or threatened and went back on. Many men who survived which is not too many. Were accused of dressing as a woman
The titanic fascinates me, something about it is so intriguing
Its a kind of fever.
big _ oof check the conspiracies behind it
Omg. Same and it's like no one understands why I'm so interested in it.
big _ oof yh the mysteries, the mistake, the tragedy is something else man
Its like she said, the reason interest remains so profound in the Titanic is because there was no need for anyone to die.
I watch her eyes look away, while she is looking into her memory and the images she saw and could still see that day. It’s haunting.
It's intense to be able to watch what she experienced through a 7 year old girls eyes. Frightening.
Yeah she lived it

She might has died till now, it’s very old video.
@@trkayani4949 ofcourse she has passed brother. don't be silly.
Damn. There's no one left to tell that story.
😩😩😩
"Mtn Drew"...great profile name twist 🤣
Yes, but most of them told it in books and interviews like this, so future generations can learn the reality of it.
And? Do you know just how many shipwrecks , planes crashes, train crashes, wars, car wrecks, etc etc etc and there are nobody left.. What the fuck makes this story so special? Please do fucking enlighten me!
@@TheKonga88 Ofcourse every type of incident that happens with any sort of transport and life is special in its own way but 'what the fuck makes this one special??' What a stupid question. The Titanic was THE Most LARGEST ship made in that time. It was known to be advertised as the 'unsinkable ship' and the fact it sank just THREE days after they sailed is a big shock its self and must've been for the people back then! Because of the sinking of the Titanic they've made so many improvements on such types of transport. There's so more historical value towards the Titanic and the stories of the survivors is one itself. How about you do some research to understand the importance. Please do fucking enlighten us when you have done so.
The fact she survived through the titanic and the world wars and then died 91 is incredible
99
@@simplucy8640 91.
also the great depression and the spanish flu
I would have probably turned into a raging alcoholic and a chain smoker living thru all that and died younger. People were maed stronger and less delicate back then and I wish I knew the secret.
she didn’t survive ww1 and 2 bc she wasn’t involved
"For all the years people have argued with me about that..." HOW are you going to argue with someone who was there!??
Exactly!
the thing is VERY few survivors actually said they saw her split, and most said she sunk in one piece. so this claim could easily have been brushed off as the imagination of a freezing, terrified, and tired little girl
@@sfsaviation but the ship was found in two pieces
Icydsting but the ship wasnt found till 1985, and in that time no one believed it split in half
if you guys want actual proof that people thought titanic sunk in one piece till the wreck was found, watch "a night to remember". it was made in 1958 and it shows the titanic diving straight down
The most well-spoken lady I’ve ever heard. She was such a reliable source for learning about the perspective of a passenger. No assumptions and no lies. Just facts.
@la'queerdo Jackson such a deluded opinion I must say. Anyone who has experienced such a tragedy no matter the age, would be able to piece together their memories over the years. Not to mention her mother also survived the sinking and was no doubt able to recall the incident much more clearly and tell Eva about it. Would suggest you take off your tin foil cap and do something useful. A great primary source.
@monkey tini dumbass lmao I remember lots of stuff from when I was 7. The more powerful the event the more likely you are to remember it. By your logic i would not remember being bullied at 7 because I would repress a traumatic event. Yet I remember it well. People process trauma differently and the more traumatic the memory the more likely it is to remain. You're the only one full of shit here.
@monkey tini dumbass lmao look how defensive the kid is getting hurling ad hominems around like he has any substance to his attempt at a rebuttal. LMAO. You haven't addressed my points so the only idiot here is you bud bud.
@monkey tini dumbass Yea, I’m not sure if having a decent conversation with someone of your ilk is even possible. I’d recommend just plonking your tinfoil hat back on and find something more useful to do with your time.
@monkey tini dumbass There isn’t any big words in what I just said.
"The most dreadful sound is the sound of people drowning…" Wow...just wow.....
But nowhere as dreadful as the silence that followed it, according to her mother. Let that sink in!
Clara Partida I think she meant people freezing to death and calling out- when people drown it is actually quite a silent thing
Weird Science go fuck yourself with the bolts that built the titanic
@@evearcana2392 most people would have had heart attacks within 15 minutes , hypothermia and heart failure would of been the cause in those tempetures
@Weird Science I've seen the same comment from you in another video.. what if it was your loving wife and child? I would In a heartbeat..I agree , some women has changed since 1912 but kids and women come first mate. Step up
The most dreadful sound of all is sound of people drowning
Her mom:But the silence that follows.. that's more terrifying...😶☹️
And... The baby that died...😭
Her Mom got a point... when the people are drowning, it means they are still alive. But the silence is a clarification of their deaths...
If you want to know what it actually sounded like, a Titanic survivor says that it's almost identical to the sounds of a screaming crowd when a Home Run is hit at a ball game.
@@nickwilliams6621 horriblr
@@nickwilliams6621 petrifying...
I keep thinking about what she said about the quietness after the ship had sunk. It's terrible to think about😞
Yea
What's the most creepiest I think was, it was a clear starlit night with calm waters, everything was perfect to watch such a disaster display right before you.
That comment has haunted me for years.
It is rather odd. I remember after witnessing a fatal car and truck accident there was an eerie silence in the air. Everyone had stopped driving/walking. This hush lasted for a few moments before life returned into the scene and people jumped in to help. It's that moment of processing what had happened with shock.
That's the sound of silence
One of the most terrifying parts about her story is when she talked about her father coming back into the room in a hurry and the mother didn't say anything to him cause she knew it was that "dreadful something" she dreamt about. I hope they have all found peace.
How could people argue with her over the ship breaking in half?
She was there and you weren’t.
A vision like that probably never leaves someone’s head.
Some people like Eva Hart or Jack Thayer said it broke, some said it didnt.
Right, like they were there
@@thesilentdiva yes, they were, I named the titanic survivors of course
@Sintherus that is utter ignorance, the survivors and eyewitness saw what happened, theres no reason to not believe them.
@Sintherus why ?
Her name is in the titanic museum in Tennessee. When you go there you get assigned a person’s name that actually boarded the ship and I got her.
I saw the titanc experience when it came to perth west Australia i cant remember who i was given all i know is my person survived the whole thing was a humbling experience

Wow!!
@@soysorie3087 it's in Pigeon Forge, TN. I don't remember the name but you can Google it.
The nightmares this lady must have had throughout her life hearing people screaming and from the loss of her father.
Scott H ikr
She actually isolated herself in a cabin for days when she was on her voyage to return to the UK. The only reason she got to the other parts of the ship is because a stewardess had to convince her to get on deck so she can confront her fear head on (whether it worked, I'm not sure).
She used to bark at mice and cats.. 😂😂😂😂😻😻☔☔😺😺😸😸🐈🐈🐶🐶🐶🐭🐭🐁🐀🐭🐁🐀🐹🐹
I can’t imagine the fear for a seven year old girl witnessing the ship go down knowing her father was still on it 😢 rip all those who were lost that night 🙏🏻
If I was her father then I'd try to get on the deck and find something to survive on until someone finds me.
@@NobaraGamezzz with all the panic going on you can’t be sure you would act how you actually think you would
@@NobaraGamezzz the water was below freezing they died from being frozen to death and drowned due to that so even if while in the water you held on to somthing the temperature of the water would kill you
They didn't know at the time, which is why her mother searched for him when they arrived in NY
@@beesmitty9540 they knew he wasn’t on the life boat with them, and they knew there weren’t enough boats. that’s enough for me.
It's been 84 years, and I can still smell the fresh paint. The china had never been used. The sheets had never been slept in. Titanic was called the Ship of Dreams, and it was. It really was.
Rose then claimed "it was the ship of dreams to everyone else. to me it was a slave ship taking me back to america in chains"
Lady Fervor your Hollywood history.
😭😭😭
Well done for just repeating what you saw in a fictional film, really some people are idiots.
julian sturgeon not very respectful quoting film dialogue when an actual survivor is talking about her real life trauma and losing her father 🙄
"The silence that followed after" really made me uncomfortable
Rick Maassen exactly....

So people called her a liar for saying that she saw the boat split in half? She was there she's not lying
They probably did that to protect whatever reputation the ship had left
The 'boat' is called ship
who cares about you???? NOBODY
Charokee why did you clap for
She was quite young when it happened, and this was several decades later, It may have been a matter of false memory.
Hearing her speak about the process of getting back on board the Carpathia is amazing. That’s something new I’ve learned.
What an amazing woman.

I remember hearing about one of the survivors was about to lose her home. She was selling all of her keepsakes from Titanic trying to keep her home. Leo Dicaprio and Kate Winslet heard about her and helped her keep her home. This was not too long after Titanic movie was released.

Everyone's life is the same! Evil or good.
Eva Hart is a marvellously articulate and witty woman and I never tire of hearing her story. I always am touched by how her voice shifts to a softer, plaintive tone whenever she mentions seeing her father the last time and the distant ship’s failure to come to the sinking Titanic. It’s a true testament to how certain experiences affect us forever.
Well they made millions capitalizing on the tragedy and deaths. It was the least they could do.
"Do you want to hear the story or not, Mr. Lovett?"
Yas. Yas, I do very, very much.
I am not Mr Lovett but would like to hear the story..

Exactly; this is a real-life Rose, who was only 7 years old on that traumatizing April night in 1912.
Brian Critchley I don’t think you get it
i wanna slap whoever tried to tell her she didnt see the ship break in half, she is so articulate and put together that if i had ever had the honor to speak with her in her lifetime (god rest her soul) i couldn't have the guile to disagree with anything she said to me. what an intelligent, put together woman.
Aleister Ashland wow you sure get violent easy ,
Aleister Ashland She is a great storyteller, very articulate and first-person opinionated too 💕 PTSD does finally heal but it takes years sometimes. She has had the benefit of years to think it through, as raw and tragic ad it was. God bless her soul and thank you to whomever filmed her.
Aleister Ashland I agree. Very well spoken.
Aleister Ashland Agreed, such a lovely woman.
Aleister, I agree with you. She was a lovely, charming lady! ❤ I would have loved to have been in her family to hear all of her stories as many other commentors have said.
She was such an amazing woman. Not only did she survive Titanic but she lived for her chance to tell the tale. For those who have seen the movie, do you remember the quote "You hold Mommy's hand and be a good little girl." that one of the men said to his daughter boarding the life boat? That's a nod to her father, Benjamin, who really did say that to her just as shown in the movie. Eva Hart died many years ago but this video is still so powerful, her words are said so sincerely, and you can feel her emotions just by hearing them. She died on Valentine's Day in 1996, and I can't help but feel like that was almost meant to be. Hart, Valentine's Day, so hauntingly beautiful.
Ashley_ that’s what I was thinking about the father...so sad 😔
She died many years ago...in 1996? Jesus, I’m getting old.
Very sad scene in the movie it just comes to show how the world can have terrible events and how some get to tell the tale and some...don’t..🥺😢💔
her mother knew that calling a ship unsinkable was absolutely foolish.
Duhh
@@exoticangel444 what a stupid response. Jerk duh
@@youcrazycat1 truu lol
That's how it is. Eva's mother was not a woman who would get excited about anything that was said to her, since before meeting Mr. Hart, she had a hard life that made her have that character of not getting excited about anything.
There is no Titanic survivors left now 😭😭💔
I don't understand the non sense you wrote. What are you saying?
If you were talking about the "Titanic Baby"... she died in 2009 from Pneumonia (Millvina Dean). Millvina didn't have any idea of what happened on the Titanic though (until she was 8, but even then, she had no personal memories of the Titanic).

I bet it’s so terrifying just seeing this shit just go down like hearing everyone drowning and see the ship sink my god I have huge respect for her
I was thinking about people on the ship, then I though about all the people in the barely full emergency boats, and I think of the guilt and shame they lived with when they went back to see if there were survivors an hour and a half later, and there were only 7 people out of 1,527 some odd people left alive in the pitch black, cold water. It's sickening.

-Eva Hart
It's terrifying to live through something like that for everyone who could've been there. It was terrible to die in these situations and for survivors who most like had a PTSD and had to live with it their whole life. Same goes for wars, who knows what's better: to die in it or to survive seeing that horror and seeing your friends, family go with it.
same, that’s so haunting!
at least she got to live
The fact that she remembers all of this :(
R.I.P Eva Hart. Beautiful soul, brave heart and mostly a strong legend. Losing the ones you love is the worst part of life.
I mean why wouldn’t see she experienced trauma and her dad died that day
I mean I’m 38 and I remember everything feom the time I was 3. You don’t forget your memories
@@WrongdirectionTravel im 32 and i barely remember anything from the time i was 7, but i guess thats mainly because my childhood was boring lol. It all depends on the event and how memorable it was, im pretty sure i wouldnt forget a day if i happen to be on a giant ass ship as it sank and my dad died on it.
😭😭😭my heart breaks while reading comments
Yes. I agree. But she went through a childhood trauma no one should have to go through and not many do that’s prob why she remembered so well. I probably would remember most of that horrible night. RIP Eva Hart. Thank you for your voice and long life you shared with us.
I had family on my moms side who cancelled last minute. I wouldnt be here writing this if they did

What if your family survived assuming they didn't cancel
Not to be rude but to all the people saying to bad she wasn't around to see the film, I highly doubt a woman as remarkable as herself would have had any interest in seeing such a film, it also may have been too much for her emotionally and mentally. Just a thought.
That aside my god what a beautiful woman 💜
AmberCScott very true
The memories may have have her an anxiety attack during the film and maybe a heart attack
AmberCScott She watched "A night to Remember" in 1958. James Cameron basically did a remake of that movie.
She lived it she didn't need to see the film. (Not being mean) and besides emotionally I dont think she could handle it.
AmberCScott well said.
So sad, now there are no survivors from the Titanic...
R.I.P. to them who survived and to them who died.😭
There is! And the Survivors are 700+ sorry i can't remember...
Michael the fish Animator The last Titanic survivor died in 2009.
@@apixieswhisper the Baby who survived the Titanic? Yeah i know that.
Michael the fish Animator Yeah I think I misunderstood your comment. Sorry😅
@@apixieswhisper The Baby Survived the Titanic Then She died on 2009! You understand?
I believe her about the Californian - she still sounds a bit angry at the memory. The Carpathia's crew was heroic and responsible despite their great distance away.
It's such a shame that, whoever it was, did not help... I know there's tons of debates about this but I'm gonna go with the literal survivor of the truth. If she says a ship was close, you bet it was close. And you can't chalk it up to old age, she's been saying it her whole life, and people still don't believe her. The arrogance of man is true.
@@madezra64 I've read about that "mystery ship". One theory is that they were smuggling poached seal-skins and didn't want to get caught
@@Tempusverum Makes sense. Honestly, if they had helped, I bet they would have at least been pardoned and let off easy. Saving 1,500 lives feels more important then saving my own skin, but that's just me...
@@madezra64 or maybe they were scared, wouldn't you be scared if you weren't aware of a shipwreck that happened not long ago and then suddenly heard screaming in the distance? You'd probably sail away from that area as fast as possible. They were most definitely cowards and not heroes otherwise they would have came to investigate the noises nearby or any signals at all.
@@madezra64 Exactly! There is no reason to not believe her testimony...it must have been as she said. This is the first time I have heard this.
The fact that she lived through so much makes me realize that you should remind yourself that there is still hope even if you’re going through tough times. I can’t imagine how hard it’s been for her.
I always remind myself this. They are the ones that have gone through so much pain, hardship and torture. And I see people saying COVID is hard....😒 little do they know if they have gone through what she did they would never complain again.
When I was in 9th grade (back in the 1970's) I had to interview an older living relative on something that made an impact on their life (historical event). My great grandmother (who was born in 1888) was still living, and I chose to interview her. At the time, I thought she would choose the events of WW1 or WW2 (she had a brother who fought in WW1 and 2 sons who fought in WW2), but she chose the sinking of the Titanic. I was truly stunned by her choice, since she had no relatives or friends that had been on board the Titanic. My great grandmother said it had affected her just the same.
She explained that before the ship's first voyage there were several stories about the ship in local newspapers. One newspaper titled it; "The Unsinkable Ship" and in the paragraph of the story stated..."even God cannot sink this ship". My great grandmother said the moment she read that line in the paper she knew in her heart that the Titanic was doomed. She also mentioned the number of civilians lost in the accident. It was considered an astronomical number of deaths during that time period.
The ignorance of man is undeniable. It's true that Satan's greatest weapon is the ignorance of God's word!!
God showing us we need to be humble perhaps
Man’s arrogance. God will not be mocked
Oh wow thats a great story.thank u for sharing
Very interesting thanks.
Hearing screaming and the biggest ship in the world in their time being split in half i think i would remember it for the rest of my life.
Nobody would forget it even if it happened in our time
@@ReubenWalton : I'm sure , he's referring to a war experience . The sensations would be similar . Both horrifying and life changing .
Sasha Drews ohh okay 👌🏻 gotcha!
What an amazing woman! I am glad her story was recorded and put on TH-cam because she clearly felt it was important to share her experience for others to learn from
Chilling to think 2/3 of the passengers drowned in icy cold water, either in or around the ship. It's horrifying to imagine what they went through.
Especially when you know that a lot could have been safe on a lifeboat
Wow i had no idea i watched this already
Anyone watching in 2018 , poor lady 😢
Alisha Celeban watching

This woman is so well put together, for her age, and especially for all the things she saw aboard Titanic. I can imagine myself sitting with her for so many hours, listening to all her stories. I can practically see myself in that living room so engrossed and hanging on to every word she said. God rest this brave woman's soul.

Yes, same here....I was totally mesmerized by Eva Hart's recollections, just like how everyone was enthralled during Rose's recounting of the tragedy in the movie.
The ship sunk in 1912.. and here we are almost in 2020... I’m sad :( nearly 108 years ago ..
Omg!!!!!! I did not notice that
108 years now holy sheet
It's weird how we view time sometimes. I know time moves on, but for some reason I always think of the 60s as 40 years ago & not 60.
seriously, its went so fast.
And some of the ship is still in the oceaan.. slowly getting eaten by bacteria..
Wow!!! Shit. Talk about a remarkable memory for her age. She might as well been the "real Rose" of the Titanic movie. You if you think about it, she witnessed everything and even the ship going down and you can imagine how terrifying that must have been to a 7-year old girl. Those screams for help and mercy from drowning people must have stayed with her for years and years. They didnt have psychiatrists back in those days and she said she never talked about it for years. She lost her father and many many other women lost their husbands, trying to find them on the Carpathia. She keeps repeating the horrifying cries of the people who drowned with the ship. Our generation learns about the Titanic through the famous movie but this woman...she lived through it!!! :(
and then two world wars after that too.
+MsWaggydog lol
ya
but rose from the movie wasn't a 7 yr old u sicko!
So jack fucked a 7year-old girl and painted a picture of her while she was nude...?
This movie is dead to me.
"Do you remember the silence that followed it?"
That's terrifying.
I had to repeat this part 10 times
What a story teller !
And her voice is so calm
@@jessicabrown5885 A calm voice comes from a lifetime of traumatic experiences. It is the inner coping mechanism for life survival. You come to a place of knowing that no pray, hope, trust, experience, knowledge or intellectual aptitude can change your destiny so you surrender to what will be. It is in this surrender where calm is born.
Yes it's the silent pause that stays with you for 100 years, Eva's silence, Harry Patch, remembering that silence before that whistle blew and over the top, that whistle an Irish priest remembered in Nagasaki then silence, ordinary people with a story that is history.
This woman was very close friends with my grandparents and even went to their wedding after survivng all of this, apparently she was a very down to earth and such a nice and respectful person
I have so much admiration for Eva. I plan to name my daughter after her. For 73 years she insisted that the ship broke in half and was not believed (even mocked by some). Thankfully, Ballard found the wreckage and proved her! She teaches the world a valuable lesson: hold onto the truth, no matter what; sooner or later the truth will be revealed! Never give up on the truth. You will likely get your Robert Ballard!
+Jennifer Rice Yes I wrote on September 12 2001 that the Twin Towers were demolished by explosives and no aircraft hit them, I was ridiculed but most people know now I was correct.
+Douglas Kay No aircraft hit them? Was than an optical illusion of planes flying into the towers then?
+Douglas Kay it was 9\11 not 12
what are you talking about? I am talking about that she refused to let go of the truth that Titanic broke in half. People thought she was wrong.
I love the name. it's German and it's what my sister's named. I think it's so wonderful.
7:18 “We rode away, and I didnt close my eyes, at all. I saw that ship sink... and I saw that ship break in half.” The most powerful words I will ever hear.
This is mesmerizing. The eeriest things she spoke about was the band playing as the ship sunk, and the sound of people drowning, followed by the silence. How could one ever fully recover from such a traumatic experience?
violet bowie Jesus heals..
violet bowie Still way better then a lot of tragedies where people burned to death.
Wait, if she survived Titanic, and it's the 90s... Does that she mean she also lived through the WW1 and WW2?
+acgillespie Jesus never answered those people's prayers.
+violet bowie Easy answer, Eva was a tough broad, unlike the wimps of today, my mother is still a tough broad, strongest woman I will EVER know! These young pukes, Men and Woman of today, are WEAK and fragile, cannot handle tough times, I had plenty of hard Times still going strong!!
My Grandmother, Georgette Maxwell, wes a 12 year old French orphan on a French cargo ship heading to America when the Titanic sank, her ship received a SOS, but was to far away.
😭
How sad that was, and I'm sorry that your grandmother was left without a family like this. But at least I would have had a rewarded life, otherwise you yourself wouldn't be here.
Her english sounds beautiful
I could listen to her talk forever!
She had posh accent
It isn't a "posh" accent but I know what you mean. It's just received pronunciation. It's the accent of Standard English. She grew up in a time where it was much more common too. I speak with received pronunciation (not as strong as Eva) but I'm not "posh".
It's similar to that of Emma Watson's.... I love when Emma speaks.
kyle edward I think it sounds quite similar to Elizabeth II - Received Pronunciation in addition to articulate vocabulary PLUS a southern English accent, which would probably be dead by now
We’re 8 months into this pandemic, here I am in my titanic obsession again

She was the last survivor to remember anything
No, she wasn’t. Lillian Asplund was the last one to remember Titanic. She died 2006.
Mo B she said she was the last
@@alexmasswell5905 Thats not right tho.
Mo B to remember. Not the last survivor. Context clues.
@Anomalocaris she was only a couple months old she didn’t remember anything all though she was the last survivor
Hearing that song in church must have terrified her. I can't imagine what being on the Titanic must have been like besides a horrific experience but this lady is a brave survivor who stuck by what she witnessed that night and was proven right on at least one point that was argued. Somebody in the comments can't believe the silence after the sinking would e as terrifying as the screaming but imagine witnessing all that and bobbing in a lifeboat in complete darkness with an eerie silence after all thr panic and noise, not knowing whether you are going to be rescued, not knowing whether your father/husband or whoever made it off the ship or not. I can well believe that part was just as scary
Imagine being there. Hearing people screaming and running, knowing they were going to die soon. Imagine thinking back and watching the ship split in half. Just seems crazy to even think about it
Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin bruh what is clearly proven the ship split. What 😂
Edit: Also why would she lie about the ship being split because she knew every word was being heard for the whole world to hear if they wanted and also what she is saying could be used for research
@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin no she was right! Smh
Arrogant men blathered on for Eighty years that it couldn’t split in two because of this that and the other thing. It’s lying in two pieces on the bottom of the ocean just as survivors said it broke. Why is this a problem for anyone? They saw it. Not you. Why are women’s eyewitness accounts always discounted by arrogant men who weren’t even there? Because they want to believe something different, and eyewitness accounts don’t fit into their odd reality.
Then imagine people telling you to didn't break apart when you watched it with your own eyes, lived through it, and yet they have the arrogance to insist otherwise. Unimaginable how frustrating and hurtful that was. To tell a survivor, "no, that's not how it was." Horrible.
@Hgyvtfygyhuh Ygihvutctvnininnin "Laws of science" lmao

joshua serafini I would rather save my life dude
I’ve survived a tornado before. Now this tornado didn’t kill anybody and it wasn’t even close to this bad of a disaster, but I know what it feels like when you think you’re going to die. It’s the most frightening feeling in the world. Wouldn’t wish it on a soul even though I’ve fully recovered now. I still get a little PTSD on majorly stormy nights though.
KentuckyWallChicken I have been in the Joplin tornado and the Tuscaloosa tornado too
oh I know, just think how my great grandmother @18 yrs old help save these people from death, and some of the people on her ship, TREATED THEM LIKE SHIT, AFTERWORD!!
Imagine being left behind on a sinking ship... Poor people :(
This interview actually made me cry.. What a sad memory that women must have! .... She even heard people drowning.. RIP to all those ppl who lost their lives on the titanic
Thank God we live in an age where we were able to record people like Eva Hart's recollections of what happened that awful night, especially since all who survived have now passed on. I thought she gave a very poignant and intelligent interview. Rest in Peace Eva....
She came to my school to give a talk, i was 7, ive been fascinated ever since, i come from Southampton and a couple of family members went down, my grandmother waved them off, thank goodness, talking interviews around to get the storey straight, R.I.P. to all lost!!!!!!
@Baz Bazdad wow thats interesting, im in the middle of reading her book 🙋♀️
@Baz Bazdad wow just watched that, its a place i must visit one day, thankyou 👍
@Baz Bazdad wow, im finding this all very interesting, at our sea city museum, i saw the suit that Jack wore in the film and the big blue necklace that was used in film also 🖐
Watching her get so politely emotional when she talks about her father makes me so sad 😔
Today marks 107 years since the Titanic sank.
Sunday, April 14, 1912 - Sunday, April 14, 2019.
Prayers for those who lost their lives.
Also my grandmothers death anniversary.

I know I’m late, but I’m a huge titanic nerd! And I was depressed the whole day April 15 ( day it sank)
It hit an Ice burg April 14 11:40 pm
Sunk April 15 , 2:20 am
The TITANIC sank on the 15th of April.
Tiffanie Thomas-Sonhiem yes it started sinking April 14 and fully emerged in water by the next day.
It hit on April 14th my birthday. Sank on the 15th.

"A tribute to man's arrogance." (because they called the ship unsinkable.)
Hit the nail on the head right there.
My favourite quote from the Titanic movie would be "not even God can sink the Titanic".
Vousie V lel cal screwed everyone over with that line
Vousie V Not even god can sink this ship God says right were is my iceberg
The thing is... No one ever said that. It was never claimed to be unsinkable by any officials, just the media. The advanced safety features of the time were exaggerated to be 'unsinkable' by the general public

Unnecessary
and what exactly do you mean by this?
You could tell she was hurting when telling this story
The fact that we can hear a firsthand experience from someone is amazing. Rest In Peace, Eva Hart. 🕊
I love elderly people so much. They have so much knowledge, and amazing stories. I could literally talk to elderly people all day💞💞
Ikr. Some of the only non toxic people on The earth.
what can most people now tell their kids, grandkids. We sat and watched Netflix all day ! Not that we would want another Titanic but you know, older people had it tough compared to now.
Be careful though. Elderly people can be just as toxic as anyone else. But a good elderly person equals the saints.
I 💗 the elderly as well! That’s is why I became a nurse because I knew I wanted to work in geriatrics in my career! They’re so grateful for everything you do for them! It’s hard work, yes but the rewards are innumerable to say the least! Bless this woman as she knew her father was left on that boat and would most definitely drown as the titanic sank and their small boat was rowing away from him 🤭😢. I cannot imagine the suffering and survivors guilt!
@@michellecollins290 I believe the elderly who are toxic are just past caring and have lived a lifetime of bad life experiences we all eventually have to go through. Whether it be death of a loved one, hard times, war, etc
Rip eva heart. What an extraordinary women. If only she had lived to see the 1997 movie.
She could have probably seen. A night to Remember. A 1968 film about the Titanic. That was way more Historically accurate. Just didn't make as much as much £$'s
she would be pissed off after seeing that movie...
fcuk you she lived it
she would probably cry in the sinking scenes
Visualz she died in 1996 she didn't live to see the titanic movie
The way she speaks about it just makes the whole story better
And it makes it less scary
@La'queerdo Jackson um no if you go through a major trauma like that you can remember the details and she probably kept a journal or diary
@La'queerdo Jackson what’s your problem
@monkey tini dumbass no but obviously her mum told her what happened too and maybe other people’s stories could have jolted her memory. You have no clue how this woman felt at all you can’t give such an opinion about how well she remembers this traumatic event omg. It’s fucking trauma mate it stays with you
Imagine going to bed expecting to wake up in the morning like any other day and instead you wake in the middle of the night to a sinking Titanic...
A sinking boat would be very scary
