all dead Titanic Survivors

[Deb'sdead 1]

Anyone out there know if there are any Titanic survivors left? Is Millvena?Dean still alive?

[Guest IYG]

I rather doubt anyone is still alive from that time, unless you had babies on board or 10 year olds who are now 103 years old.

Actually I came across an old, but interesting website called Survivor's of The Titanic that listed 7 known titanic survivors that were still alive in 1998. Below are their ages in 1908 when this tragedy occurred:

 

(correction: The tragedy occurred April 15th, 1912)

 

Lillian Gertrude (5 ½ years old)

Barbara West (3 ½ years old)

Elizabeth Gladys (Millvina) Dean (10 weeks old)

Lousie Laroche (3 years old)

Michael M Navratil (3 ½ years old)

Winnifred Vera (8 years old)

Eleanor Iieen Johnson (18 months old)

 

So far, I have only found confirmation of 2 deaths from the above list:

 

Eleanor Ileen Johnson - died March 7th, 1998

Winnifred Vera died - July 4th, 2002

 

So it is possible that there are still 5 known survivors.

Did a bit of research on this subject for our 2003 game. Confirmed three survivors at that point: Elizabeth Gladys Dean, Barbra J West, and Lillian Gertrude Asplund.

Eliza Gladys Milvina Dean is indeed still with us. Born 2/2/1912, hence was 10 weeks old when the Titanic sank on 15/4/1912 (not 1908!).

[Guest IYG]

So, no survivors who actually remember it?

 

Although the 5 1/2 year old might remember something.

 

Isn't it weird that the list of survivors in 1998 is almost entirely women, I know they live longer but still, I find it amusing.

I stand corrected, thanks RK. It is never a good idea to drink whiskey while researching

[Guest Banshees Scream]

Unless you are of course researching whiskey and it's effects.

[Stayin Alive 26]

Question is: Do you offer a Titanic survivee ice for his whiskey?

Maybe not but you can always give him a yummy lifesaver.

[Stayin Alive 26]

I take it you mean the american POLO then? Question is: which came first: POLO or Lifesavers?

[lospalmas7 12]

I'm afraid to say that the LifeSaver was first produced in 1912 whereas the Polo was first manufactured in 1948.

 

I hope I've prevented a discussion about sweets turning into another nationalistic squabble but I doubt it. No doubt the Germans or the Argentinians have an altogether better form of round confectionary with a whole in it. We'll have to wait and see.

[Guest IYG]

Oh, I meant lifesaver all right, can't stand mint.

[The Yeti 14]

But are any of them famous enough ?

[Guest IYG]

But are any of them famous enough ?

The candy or the survivors?

 

I would say they aren't famous enough or at all really.

[Stayin Alive 26]

No, I fear the sweets are more famous than them. We'll have to suck it and see...

Does James Cameron's career count as a casualty of the Titanic?

 

How about poll, did you laugh or cry when dicrapio turned into a popsicle?

Never seen it so I neither laughed nor cried.

 

Laughed at the bunnies version though.

[Cowboy Ronnie 78]

If only the people who put together that excellent bunnies' version had been allowed to edit the steaming heap that James Cameron put on screen. How the same man who brought us The Terminator, a witty, lean, poignant cinematic triumph that wrung every drop out of its modest budget, could serve up the better part of 3 hours of such inexorable tripe is truly one of the mysteries of motion picture history. And the Academy rewarded him with a boatload (yawn) of Oscars, snubbing the vastly superior LA Confidential? He's not even the king of his own living room.

I blame Rollo Tomassi...

 

And I believe in God and the only thing that scares me is Barney Tobasco

[Terminator 13]

The Terminator, a witty, lean......

I like what you are saying.....

[Guest IYG]

I don't know, I liked Titanic, I saw it in theaters and I think it deserved best picture, maybe not all the rest though.

 

As for James Cameron career as a casualty, not at all, the man made more money than you can dream of, he doesn't need to work. So now he's doing his deep sea explorations and filming stuff underwater.

 

And I didn't cry nor laugh when he died, I could see it coming. Love the bunny version, they have quite a few of those.

 

I'll try and find Harry Potter portrayed by puppets later.

Despite several attempts, I have not yet been able to watch the whole "Titanic" movie. I thought that it was rather overrated.

[Cowboy Ronnie 78]

Let me save you the effort. The rabbits did it better, but in a nutshell, the Brits are all bad, fat Kate gets her kit off, the boat and Leo sink.
