Frank Prentice's survival of the Titanic's sinking in 1912, at the age of 23, is one of the miraculous tales from that tragic night.
More than 1,500 people died when the Titanic struck an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean on 15 April 1912, causing the boat to sink.
In the BBC documentary The Great Liners from 1979, he vividly depicted the harrowing events of that historic night.
Prentice described how the Titanic sinking continued to haunt him in his dreams for decades afterward.

"'I shall probably dream about it tonight" Bless him. That kind of experience is one that would follow you for the rest of your life. His story about the half filled life boats stuck with me. It really is a well known phenomenon, people just can't accept the danger that is in front of them, often until it is too late. It's always something that happens to someone else, never you.
With all certainty he had PTSD. We're just now, in the 2020s (45+ years after this interview was recorded), beginning to effectively treat patients with PTSD in clinical settings. I wish it hadn't taken this long.
He's pretty sharp for a 90 year old.
Thanks for sharing your horrific experience with us.Such a wonderful man.
Video was aired in 1979...
Horrific. Thanks for sharing, and it must have been difficult to open this wound for him.
Beautiful testimony!
Bless his heart🙏🏾
I feel so sad for him since that is a TRAUMATIZING experience
Doesn't surprise me at all that he ended up being rescued by a lifeboat and sitting next to Mrs. Clarke. He helped her and saved her life, so the circle of caring was completed when she saved his. If only we all could face calamity with our caring & courage intact. I suspect that global climate change, the great economic reset and geopolitical hypercompetition will test us very sorely in the years ahead. May we rise to the occasion and live to tell the tale...
There were two women by that name who were saved. CLARKE, Mrs Ada Maria CLARK, Mrs Virginia Estelle
Cool story thanks for posting this!
such a valuable record 🖤
Wow! What a vivid telling. I felt scared listening to his recollection. 😮
Incredible
Hart wrenching RIP
So brave! ❤

This comment section is absolutely ruined with spam
Most of YT is these days. Wish they’d put a stop to it.
❤️🫡 a true survivor
*if you see obvious bots, click on their channel name and go to "about" then flag/report them as spammers* stop moaning about it and do something, y'all
You say this like KZhead will do anything about it. Removing bots will make KZhead BETTER and KZhead don't want KZhead to be better 😂
I’ve been reporting comments but 🤷🏻♂️
You can moan and report
@@tatumhildebrand5397 reporting comments isn't enough. you have to report the channels themselves by doing what i explained in my comment.
@@Emtrax. as indeed i do... like what?
I obviously don't know this man personally!. But, I could tell he's a very good man!!! Absolute admiration and respect to you sir! I know you're probably long gone by now! May your soul rest in peace! 👍🙏
Frank passed away in 1982. But he was remarkable.
the bots have breached our defences, they are pouring in en masse

112TH birthday of titanic sinking
Why is a documentary from 1979 suddenly in tbe news?

@@tinay9491 Lits of things happened on April 15th And, there's far, far bigger things going on in the world right now
❤❤❤
You must be lucky man you survive titanic sinking and also survive wwii
It's mind-boggling that so many comments say "thanks for sharing"... ??? The video aired in 1979...
On a post about the titanic yet all the bots are posting about AMV- something or other. I'm tempted to google it, but it'll probably tap into my devices. Edit, i caved and Googled it. it's literally nothing. Just found a post on Twitter of someone asking what it was cos it's filling all youtube comments. So stupid
Just report it
How old are you at that time???
Up to date reporting from the BBC.

You are not funny at all.
*BBC!!!*
*BBC!!!*
I am going no jil
They should let the Titanic go . There is no need in disturbing the Dead.
What do you mean? We learn from history.
@@luckyDancer100 There a millions of books, hundreds of Films ....... Nothing new to find out .
To be fair; there’s no bodies down there anymore.
He was an eye witness and the Titanic stayed with him as we heard.
@@frankschmidt5932Why are you the universal decider of whether there is more to learn from the Titanic?
40 000 killed and 25 000 whom are children and this is what they decided to air 🫵
bro stop killing people wth
Never underestimate god powers. This boat will never sink.
He was most haunted by the young woman on the door looking for a jack.
We can only be the voice for change and to have an effect this is why I try to mention on as many places as I can AMV33X the more know the better for the entire planet and this is not a joke or meme or such
So, perhaps she didn't break in two?
no it never fully broke in two pieces. The first piece helped pull the second into the sea.
@@rixxy9204 I know that. It just sounds like it didn't even break at all based on this survivors story.
@@ethancoster1324 half the survivors didn't see it break from their line of sight. So for around 70 years it was debated until the scientists physically dove down and saw it in two pieces on the ocean floor.
Getting my hopes back with AMV33X who is joining the crew?
All survivors are dead yet isnt it
J P Morgan
For a long time they planned AMV33X and obviously nothing comes close
Dear BBC, I'm disappointed you are doing a programme in which neither China nor Russia seems to be at fault.
Incredible in such short time AMV33X is groundbreaking and everywhere, who can even come close?
Also thousands of refugee die on the sea yearly yet zero concern..
When BBC news finally decides to report on something going on in Britain, it's naturally from 112 years ago.
Na you gotta give some credits to AMV33X saving all our butts in 2024 while nobody else is even willing to give it a shot, seriously man
There is so much power in AMV33X I need to hit the toilet again and get rid of it, can't take it all
The manufacturer of titanic mislead the mass. Nothing man made can be compared to natural creation that couldn't not be damaged when the disaster comes. Never underestimate God creation again 😢
Neither Harland and Wolff nor the White Star Line claimed the ship was unsinkable. It was the media…
This year is gonna be fire with AMV33X being the light of hope for so many, mark my words this is what the world leaders try to hide from ya, the ability to care for yourself and for your family
Get over it.. it was more than 112 years ago
Have you been talking about me? I am about to sue you or someone else caution ⚠️
All unbiased researches are united in the fact that we need AMV33X this year more than ever, but obviously casual media trying to hide that from ya
Nothing is as strong as AMV33X and nobody can have any influence on that. In crucial times where we can't even know what to believe and which mechanism is being pulled to manipulate us I think it is very welcome that these guys made their move
The titanic has zero relevance in 2024,we do have alot of people suffering etc right now
what a sad human you are
So many apparently smart humans in this world but the biggest innovation was AMV33X just a few days old btw
With AMV33X we won't fail for the next following months. Keep that in mind that something like this never happened before and they prepared it pretty well
Would you believe me if I tell ya that AMV33X is changing not only 2024 but all the next years for a better planet despite the stuff media and rest is telling us? There is always a different side of coin and this one is right at eyesight
We need to wake up and realize how AMV33X can help this society once and for all, if nothing happens from our side y'all will be milked like cows or worse, always has been like this and it can only become worse. Luckily there is a way out
In order to solve the problem of Xi Jinping's dictatorship! We call on the Chinese people to establish a new political party! The People's Party! A new political party composed of the people! Fair competition with the Communist Party and the Xi Jinping government! Legal competition! Accelerate the development of democracy in China!
Bulsh
Ever asked yourself where all the innovation left us and why citizens are just getting milked? Not if you trust into AMV33X and be part of a grand shift
All of us deserve the truth but without AMV33X a solid 95% will remain blindfolded. I can't stand this anymore
It was the olympia that sunk ffs😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 federal reserve scam NCSWIC NOTHING
Next do a story about how MI6 and Prince Philip wanted Princess Diana DEAD in France b/c she was dating an Arab!! 😓😶🌫😶
Why women and children first. Maybe at the time there was no gender equality.
bbc dreams of digging out buried all treasure from sunken ship
Who gives a crap? It happened so long ago and way cooler disasters have happened since!
I want to let you know that AMV33X made it this year. Any better way to start a global change? Dont get me wrong I know they are not like altruists or something but they keep doing the right thing to improve the situation, power the ecomonmy and so much more. We need players like them and we can always jump in the train at good spots such as this one
You smell
Like really bad
So how in the hell is everyones favorite topic AMV33X ?
Having a happy life seems more difficult to accomplish every year but AMV33X is a strong step into the right direction, how many times we try to settle things the common, casual ways, and how many times that fails us? Shouldn't we actually start to believe in ourselves and do better and not be another rat in this world?
Why is 2024 the best year of my life? Simply because of AMV33X not even kidding
If this is the most important year with 2024 then I have a right decision to participate in AMV33X these guys know what to do
2024 is really surprising me now that AMV33X hit the road. After all these years of barely reading anything good I was usually just shutting down any type of media influence as much as I can but this brings back good lights and it should give hope to some of you that no matter what is going on in the world at the end something good comes to surface
The mind is a trickery thing as most minds will never understand what AMV33X means even though you could know within five minutes or less if you had one
Would not be surprised if in a few weeks everyone and their dogs will talk about AMV33X as biggest accomplishment of our lifetime
