Spielberg once said he considered doing a film based on De Wiart but said he opted not to because "nobody would ever believe that his story could be true. "
Yeah, I know there is a problem with that. But, if more people learned about real life people like De Wiart and anyone else that lived such amazing lives like they did, as explained in videos like this one, maybe, just maybe it would get made and people would find it believable one day..?!😮🙁
These people were amazing survivors! The last story was my favorite, though. The fact he survived not only Hiroshima, but also Nagasaki is an absolute miracle. And, even after all that radiation poisoning, he went on to father 2 more children, then live to a ripe old age of 93 is amazing!
Many people did survive. The damage was bad, but hyped for fear tactic. The bomb exploded in the air, not on the ground, and only a tiny part of the chain reaction occurred. There was no mushroom cloud, as were shown in the desert tests. But that in no way diminishes this gentleman's ordeal and his recovery from it.
I see that Ms.Unsinkable was on the same boat as Molly Brown and I wonder if they both ever met either while on the boat or later...... it's fantastic that these people survived and lived a quiet life.... for most of them
@@mjrchapin if the bomb had exploded in the ground it would have done far less damage. The reason why the bomb was detonated in the air was to maximize the air burst. The shock wave is what does the most damage. Not to mention the radiation poisoning afterwards.
When I saw '3 Unkillable People' I first thought oh, ok, Unsinkable Molly Brown, Rasputinn, the usual suspects. I should have known that you'd bring something different and fascinating!
If that call Violet had received wasn’t a prank then why the guy just laughed and hang up? Weird. If I was him I’d thank her and asked if she was living a good life since then. A little impolite 🙄
I always want a connection to This disaster even in school we did a project on this and I tried to cop off the drawing of the Titanic that I wanted to do for my report and my mom was like just do it you know and I end up doing it by myself and I swear I couldn't have been any more perfect in detail as if I had been there and seen it myself
The very definition of Death Proof. This car is Death Proof and that ain't no lie but to get the full effects you really have to be sitting where I'm sitting.
I read the title as "3 Unlikable People." I kept waiting to hear something awful about Violet. At the end of that segment, I re-checked the name, and realized my mistake.
Thanks for sharing these incredible stories of "never say die". Inspiring! Cosacks are Russian horsemen incredibly skilled in martial, metaphysical and paranormal arts. My ex-wifes great grandfather was one.
Getting cancer after surviving two atomic bombs as a young man is understandable but when the cancer shows up after he's 90 years old! Thats a friggin miracle and I hope he donated his DNA for research because those are some powerful genes! I think that survivable people share traits like good situational awareness, the ability to stay calm, and they can adjust to any situation and just do what needs to be done no matter what it is. Basically they can keep their head while everyone else is losing theirs. And it seems some have a very high threshold to pain and may have actually had 9 lives given to them!🙂
Can't figure out if people should check the passenger list to see if Violet's name was on it and if it was, run for your life away from the cruise or jump on board and glue yourself to her.
And the millenials think they have it tough. Astounding achievements and resilience displayed by all these legends. Biggest respect 🫡 to all. And respect 🫡 to ALL service men and women. Makes me shake my head when I hear some people complain
I've heard stories before about the last guy and the first time I did, my jaw dropped several times and I couldn't help cackle. How the eff did he manage? He just kept on truckin' 😂
Great vid! They are survivors of History. Thought Rasputin would be on list. Glad He wasn't. Raspy was dispicable. These three worthy Souls were fine people.
Or, maybe you WOULD. Think about it, of the 3 White Star ship disasters, The Titanic was the only one to suffer a huge amount of lives lost. If I were stationed on a ship with Violet back then, I'd stick to her like GLUE!
I like Violets sprit. She was one of those Go Getter women for her time. I can’t remember his name now, but the 💩 & horror old mate must’ve seen in the Boar War & 2WWs. Special mention to old mate No2 for surviving not 1 but 2 Nuclear bombings.
The phone caller sounds like the mother - I mean the unthankful B snatched baby out of her arms back then - if she has gone a little or a little more crazy at that time then this phone call sounds like something she could do.
I think Mr Ballen covered his story on his channel. Mr Benavidez's name is REALLY familiar. If we're both thinking about the same man, you're right, he was a total bad a$$. Mr Ballen did an awesome job of covering his, and a few others' incredible stories of bad assery and survival. His YT channel is simply Mr Ballen, and look for his stories from around a year ago. I SWEAR Roy's story's in there somewhere
Damn I didn’t realize that I was traumatized by the car accident I was in 5 months ago but alas, the sound effects for the boat accident proves otherwise.
I like the faux video reel/feel for a very short while. I’ve been following both channels for a while now. I love them. Maybe miss that fake 30-40s style video setting. Just present what you found or have been presented with, no effects 🙏🏼.
Please try and understand that I'm truly not trying to be an a** hole, but your number of deaths that happened in Hiroshima are wrong. I've been studying this subject for twenty years and a lot of the information that people use is absolutely not accurate. I'm strictly speaking about the deaths from the initial blast, not about the long term affects.
Those first two were just bad luck incarnate. Imagine sitting on some kind of public transport and one of them swanned on. Best laxitive you could ever experience.
Something tell me that karma or fake is trying to tell her she should have died on the ocean she was meant to die in the ocean. It's like final destination with the exception that she keeps going back to how she should have died originally the death that was destined for her
I stopped everything I was watching to get here and watch this. It was some boring Anna Korenna summary so it wasn't that hard bit still.. Actually thanks for saving me. It was getting real dull
@@fishandchipsupper yeah well we all kind of heard of like every single one of them... Like didn't know how else to say it cause I actually really like this channel
@@blackkkabllakkcaa actually since you read my stupid chatter that means I'm not. Because you read it by default you're now conversing with me. So yeah
