Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Between 1850 and 1920 over 3 million people half the population emigrated from Ireland, escaping desperate poverty. Believing America to be a saviour and a life of hope, the Addergoole 14 saved fiercely in order to afford a ticket aboard the Titanic and escape to the land of dreams. Told using interviews with the descendants of survivors, these are new perspectives of the conditions on board, and the events of April 12th 1912. Focusing not on the glory and fate of the ship, this new look at a famous tragedy uncovers ordinary lives and fragile hopes of the community that lost more that fateful night than any other

It is so good to finally have names and faces of true 3. class passengers instead of only the rich and famous ones. And so expected to hear why they wanted to go to the USA for a chance at happiness and at least some measure of properity, and all the more sad that most of them never had the chance to see it come through.
But it filled me with a deep sense of both horror and rage to hear about the subsequent endeavors of the White Star Line to try to coerse the survivors to accept a measly $25 despite having lost both relatives and all their earthly belongings.
I can't even begin to describe the depths of loathing and disrespect and maliscious want that i feel for everybody who contrived such mean and gready maschinations, and all of those who aided, coworked with, and endeavored to make it happen. May all their families and relatives live in shame and dishonour then, now and for all of eternity for having taken part in such evil and inhuman actions against innocent victims of the failings on White Star Lines part.

I remember watching a documentary a while back, and one of the survivors described the screaming like that which you'd hear at a ballpark. She lived in Brooklyn, near Ebbet's Field where the Dodgers played. She said that the roar of the crowd during a homerun or crazy play would trigger her. Saying that that's exactly what those screams sounded like. Only they weren't cheering, they were dying and pleading for help. To this day, I still imagine what that death roar must've sounded like, and it just chills me to my core - no pun intended. Seriously though, it's just so frightening to imagine. It's also probably the best way to describe that sound.

This made out like Ireland was the only country to suffer back then. England had work houses and families lived on streets and if hey were lucky enough to have a roof over their heads it was disgusting and they had to live in 1 room also with no toilets. People would literally starve to death. Most children died very very young. If that aunt hadn't gone back to Ireland talking them into going to America and saying how great it is there they would have lived.

This documentary has given me a real and tangible feeling of what really happened on the titanic and how the utter grief and fortitude of those that chose to live in the face of the horror that they had experienced. True heroes. It has left me with a feeling of great sadness in the pit of my stomach and the taste of what really happened in my mouth.
I dont think this starkly vivid impression will leave my mind.
Bless them all.

This gives the story of Titanic a human element that gets forgotten time and time again. We focus so much about the ship itself, the iceberg, the upper class even that we forget that 3rd class was the biggest, and if you ask me probably more interesting. That the loss of life was tremendous, tragic, and that they weren't just a number but human beings with lives and families that mourned.

I was born on April 15th many decades after the sinking of the Titanic, but every year since I was a teenager and learned that the Titanic sank on my birthday I have made it a tradition to say a Rosary for all the precious ones who died that day. May their souls rest in peace and may perpetual light shine upon them.

Its absolutely appalling that, after all the survivors had gone through, all the White Star Line officials cared about was the bottom line, keeping the coffers full. To prey on these traumatized and wounded survivors and trick them into absolving the company of financial responsibility is positively grotesque.
reply

bla bla bla. did not speak about it for almost 100 years until now. bohoo did somebody need money? that ship has sank! leave it be now, drama queens!
The MS wilhelm Gustloff cost 10. 000 peoples lifes but since there were no Astors and countess Rothe or molly brown no one is crying about them!

Poor folks just wanted a better life for themselves and died instead tears. As a fellow Burke this drives home. I live in Milwaukee Wisconsin just a couple hours drive of Chicago and have a few Relatives there. My maternal grandmother although German was an immigrant as well.
reply

Well are we shocked that these poor folks were screwed out of decent compensation? It would've been nice to see victim advocate lawyers who passed out pamphlets to the disembarking survivors to at least make them aware there was further possible recourse for their ordeal.

At 22 min, the narrator claims that 3d class on Titanic was like 2d class on other ships. Yet Testimonies say different. They were only allowed on the top deck or in their cabin, lowest floor.
I don't think this film has accuracy. They are pushing a narrative.

reply

Listening to the story of how they would not Christen the ship I am reminded of Eva hart in 2nd class whose mother stayed awake at night and saved Eva herself because she said it was flying in the face of God to say it was unsinkable. I imagine she hear about that too
reply

I always wondered weather they carried on after there dreams and went on to America, or headed home, thank you for posting this its one of the better put together stories about the Irish victims of the titanic. so sad god love them to all the lost as sea Rip
reply

Less on cosmetics and more money on life saving tools would have, such a masterpiece build might have gotten into ones head hence, didnt realized to properly assembly survival tools. Everyone makes mistakes and things Im sure werent deliberately planned.
reply

They didn't care about the 3rd class passengers, that's not fair, just because they weren't rich like the 1at class passengers, that's picking and choosing who is worthwhile, we are all worthwhile. Everyone deserved to be saved. Not just the rich people.
reply

Clearly some things were embellished like the hat story
The men needed to help the women get up to the upper decks
How then does she make it up again without help?
In any case nice video
The story of the titanic is very intriguing.

reply

This was such a tragedy.
Just the way the Irish immigrants were not allowed on the first deck
Why?
Because First class thought the were better so the Irish were last when there were only a few boats left.
OMG!
That is just so sad.

reply

The fact that theyre still coming together in the end 100 years later gathering in this village to honor the 14th ancestors of the S who didnt make it it touches me it really touches me it makes me so emotional it makes me so emotional

I just went on a trip to Tennessee and went to the Titanic Museum. I received Catherine McGowan, Annie's aunt. Catherine was lost at sea when the Titanic sank. I was so intrigued by this story, I had to research it when I came home.
reply

Thank you for sharing their stories. They live on forever when we never forget. RIP. Im so sorry this happened to you all. You deserved so much more. Also I absolutely adore how the town honors them, true love and community.
