00:00We have heard a lot of information about this terrible tragedy that happened on the night of April 14, 1912.

00:08What really caused the disaster?

00:11Could the passengers of the Titanic have been saved?

00:13Was the ship cursed?

00:15All these questions remain unanswered.

00:18Also, today, we will not focus on the tragic aspect of this event,

00:23but on the fantastic stories of the people who miraculously managed to survive it and what they became afterwards.

00:31As you know, when the Titanic crashed on an iceberg,

00:35the crew of the ship first evacuated the women and children.

00:38But among the passengers, a woman remained on board and she survived the sinking of the ship.

00:45Her name was Rhoda Abbott.

00:47She and her two sons had been living in England for two years,

00:49but they had decided to go home, to Providence, Rhode Island.

00:54Rhoda had therefore bought three third-class tickets for the most modern and most insubordinate ship of the time.

01:01The whole family slept in her cabin during this dark night from April 14 to 15.

01:06They did not feel the shakes and only got up when the steward knocked on the door.

01:10He asked them to put on life jackets and go to the upper deck.

01:15Then, with other third-class passengers, they lined up to board the lifeboats.

01:21The crew members allowed only the women and children to go further.

01:26The brothers had to negotiate with the crew to be able to accompany their mother to the boat.

01:31They all got on the last boat,

01:33but the crew asked the sons to leave their seats to the women who had not yet been evacuated.

01:38Rhoda did not want to leave her sons, so she decided to stay with them.

01:42She came down from the canoe and held her sons in her arms.

01:45At that moment, the hull of the ship began to darken.

01:49The deck was tilting.

01:50Rhoda tried to hold her sons, but in vain.

01:53She slipped off the deck and fell into the icy water.

01:56From there, she joined the lifeboat that had been taken by the deck while swimming.

02:01Rhoda climbed aboard and watched the Titanic sink into the water.

02:05Unfortunately, she could not save her two sons.

02:08Apart from her, there were 13 people on the canoe.

02:11But in the end, no one survived except Rhoda.

02:15A few hours later, the Carpathian ship arrived,

02:18and its crew found our friend almost frozen in the canoe.

02:22The ship arrived almost three days later in New York,

02:25where Rhoda was hospitalized and where she stayed for about two weeks.

02:29Swimming in the cold water gave her asthma,

02:32and she suffered from it all her life.

02:35Later, she admitted not to have any regrets for refusing to leave with the other women.

02:40Because she could have spent a little more time with her sons.

02:46Violette Jessop is another survivor of the Titanic disaster.

02:50She had embarked on the ship not as a passenger, but as an employee.

02:54She had been hired by the White Star Line,

02:57which was looking for people to serve the rich customers of the new luxury deck.

03:01On April 10, after an interview, Violette boarded the Titanic.

03:06The first few days of work went smoothly until the disaster.

03:10At first, no one panicked.

03:13People didn't want to believe that the insubservient ship could sink.

03:17But while we were chatting on the upper deck,

03:20the water was invading the hull.

03:23Violette, with other employees, helped the people evacuate.

03:27One of the ship's captains ordered her to go first in the canoe

03:30to show the others that there was no danger.

03:33She obeyed and spent several hours on board,

03:36until the rescuers came to pick up the survivors.

03:39But the most exciting thing in this story is that before the Titanic,

03:43Violette had already had a shipwreck.

03:46The ship where she worked as a hostess had collided with another ship,

03:50in the middle of the sea.

03:52Everyone had been saved,

03:54and Violette had gotten a job on the Titanic a few years later.

03:58But even after this second and famous shipwreck,

04:00she didn't change her profession and got a job on the British hospital ship.

04:04And you know what?

04:05He sank too.

04:07Violette survived for the third time,

04:09and she was apparently not traumatized.

04:12After all these events, she continued to work on other ships.

04:16All these events highly value the nickname of Miss Insubservient.

04:22One of the Titanic's most courageous passengers

04:25was the ship's chef, Charles Jouguin.

04:28On the night of April 14th,

04:30he woke up after the collision with the iceberg.

04:33During the few hours during which the ship sank under the water,

04:36Charles helped the passengers.

04:38He first ordered his bakers to supply all the rescue boats with food,

04:43then he lent a strong hand for the evacuation.

04:46He was one of the last people to stay on the ship

04:49once all the boats were in the water.

04:51And he continued to save lives.

04:53He threw long chairs in the water so that people could sit on them.

04:57Then, when half of the Titanic sank,

05:00he went down into the icy water,

05:02where he noticed a chipped rescue boat.

05:05He got on board and waited a few hours for the rescuers to arrive.

05:10But the most incredible thing was that he was doing very well

05:13when Carpathia appeared.

05:15He had no scratches and was not suffering from hypothermia.

05:20Among the survivors of the Titanic

05:23was also Margaret Brown,

05:25known as the insubordinate Molly Brown.

05:29She had visited a friend in England with her daughter.

05:32But when she learned that her little son was sick,

05:35she immediately bought a ticket to go to New York on board the Titanic.

05:39After the collision with the iceberg,

05:41Margaret bravely helped people evacuate the ship

05:44until the stewards forced her to get on a canoe.

05:47And she continued to take care of others

05:49until the arrival of the lifeboat, the Carpathia.

05:52Margaret then created a committee of survivors

05:55and raised about $10,000.

05:57At the time, it was a considerable amount.

06:00For many years, she protected and supported the survivors of the Titanic,

06:04who were in a precarious financial situation.

06:07Margaret also contributed to the construction

06:10of the Titanic Memorial in Washington.

06:13A rich English businessman, G. Bruce Ismay,

06:16was also on board the Titanic.

06:18However, his shipwreck was not the end of his misdeeds.

06:21He managed to jump into the last channel 20 minutes

06:24before the Titanic was completely submerged.

06:27He thus managed to survive,

06:29but he was sentenced to eternal contempt.

06:32Once on the continent,

06:33the newspapers began to talk about him as the Titanic's worst coward.

06:37Some articles even accused him of having sunk the ship.

06:41Ismay was a manager of the White Star Line company

06:44that had designed the Titanic.

06:46According to some press articles,

06:48the businessman had asked the captain to sail faster.

06:51He wanted the ship to arrive in America earlier than expected.

06:55He would thus receive the praise of public opinion.

06:58And the consequence was, of course,

07:00that the ship crashed at high speed against an iceberg

07:03and that its hull was damaged.

07:05No one could prove the guilt of the businessman.

07:08Almost all the criticisms against him

07:10had been published in a single newspaper.

07:12His publisher had argued with the businessman just before the tragedy,

07:16he seemed to have decided to destroy his reputation.

07:19Great Britain organized an independent investigation

07:22which concluded that Ismay had done nothing wrong.

07:25Of course, he had jumped into the last channel,

07:28but only after all the women and children had been evacuated.

07:32However, the investigation did not allow to wash Ismay's reputation.

07:36In England and America,

07:38many friends and colleagues turned away from him.

07:41For many years, Ismay compensated the families

07:44who had lost a loved one on the Titanic.

07:49The most famous passengers of the Titanic

07:51were the members of an orchestra of eight musicians.

07:54At first, no one panicked after the terrible collision with the iceberg.

07:59Many refused to board the canoes

08:01because it seemed to them that they were safer on the Titanic.

08:05Others were convinced that the ship's breakdown would soon be repaired.

08:09Some did not believe that the ship could sink.

08:12But the panic settled when everyone realized that the disaster was imminent.

08:17To calm people down,

08:19eight musicians from two ensembles began to play music.

08:23The survivors say that the orchestra played until the end.

08:27The fear and the gravity of the situation did not disconcert these brave men.

08:31Unfortunately, they did not escape it,

08:33but their memory remained forever engraved in history.

08:37And their musical instruments are now famous objects around the world

08:41and articles of great value in auction houses.
