Here’s a video featuring an old interview with Frank Prentice, an actual crew member of the Titanic who worked as an assistant purser.
In the interview for the 1979 BBC series The Great Liners – Hazard at Sea, Prentice talked about the nightmarish moments just before he realized the ship was sinking.
From his point of view, Prentice talked about what happened on the Titanic on April 14, 1912. The tragedy was so scary, it haunted him until his death in 1982.
More than a century since the Titanic sank on its maiden voyage, this first-person testimony of survivor Frank Prentice remains a powerful and harrowing account of the sheer terror felt by those on board….he vividly depicted the harrowing events of that historic night, one that continued to haunt him in his dreams for decades afterward.
