Violet Jessop
Violet Jessop, in her day, was either extraordinarily lucky or in a terrible state of misfortune, depending on how you look at the situation. Jessop earned the nicknames “Miss Unsinkable” and “Queen of Sinking Ships” due to her frequent presence on ships that were in the process of sinking. She, too, is a lucky survivor, but not without a few brushes with death along the way.
Jessop, who was born in Ireland and raised in Argentina, worked on many unfortunate ships as both a nurse and a stewardess. Not only was she a passenger on the RMS Titanic and the HMHS Britannic, but she was also on other ships. Both of the ships went down together in different accidents in the early 1900s. Despite her previous traumatic experiences, she continued to work on ships and trips. We take it for granted that work is work!
Mr. Ramon Artagaveytia
It would be horrible enough to be on one ship that was sinking, but to be on two would be horrific. In 1871, Ramon Artagaveytia, a native of Punta, Espinillo, Uruguay, was one of the few people to survive the sinking of the ship America. Only 65 of the passengers were able to swim to safety, including Artagaveytia, who jumped into the ocean and was able to save his own life by swimming.
Forty-one years after the disaster, Artagaveytia discovered that he was sailing on a ship that had a striking resemblance to the Titanic. Before embarking on his journey to France, he paid a visit to his nephew. Unfortunately, he did not survive this accident as successfully as he had the one before it.
