People who’ve been in a shipwreck often remain afraid of water for the rest of their lives. But the woman whose story youβll hear survived not one, and not even two, but three ship disasters, and continued to work on cruise liners as a stewardess. Her name’s Violet Jessop β Miss Unsinkable! Her mother worked as a stewardess at sea and when she fell sick, young Violet followed in her footsteps. The first two years passed quietly. But then, a series of incredible fortunes began β or misfortunes, depending on how you looked at it.
Violet got a job on the most luxurious liner of the time β the Royal Mail Ship Olympic. On September 20, 1911, Violet worked on the deck as usual. The sea was calm and nothing boded ill. The ship sailed through the Solent Strait, which separates the Isle of Wight from the British mainland. At this moment, the British military cruiser Hawke appeared ahead. It shouldβve passed by the Olympic but something went wrong. The ships went straight at each other. The Olympicβs captain tried to maneuver to avoid a collision but failed. Luckily, both ships stayed afloat, and nobody got hurt. But in April 1912, Violet Jessop took a job on the best, unsinkable ship of the time – the Titanic.

Guys, do you believe in fate? Or do you tend to think everything is a coincidence?
know
You have to remember what a politically turbulent time worldwide she lived in.
When you have the same name:
All I can say is, if sheβs on a ship, donβt go on the same one.
I'm still very surprised that she even survived the titanic!
Do you know when the Brittanic set sail because I think I set sail in 2022
This video taught me more than school did XD
The OLYMPIC did never sink. And there are many other mistakes in that video too. Bright Side isnβt that bright.
Born in 2012
The titanic had a corse to newyork
How to survive a sinking ship number one don't go on the lifeboats while it's still moving or you'll get crushed and trapping to Pieces by the propeller drop a foot when the boat starts moving then wait until another ship comes to save you it might take an hour or two but it's worth it
This goes to everyone: NEVER GIVE UP!!!
I think olympic didn't sink because watertight doors were closed
