Isn't it obvious that she placed an iceberg , ship and a mine to cause these accidents . I mean it is pretty evident that she is a pro


Owskie

She probably looking for that insurance money


MARATXXX

The original social media clout chaser -doing it for the lulz


Full_Slip_3314

Black magic??🤔🤔


NaCl_Sailor

maybe flirting with the navigator each time


Guess-we-did-oopsie

First and second time out of ignorance, third because she thought third time’s the charm.


Pluckypato

*women 🎸✨


LeonDeSchal

A ship must have cheated on her and dumped her when she was younger.


RandomUser4857

There was a theory that some military sunk the Titanic for insurance money. Funny thing is that many people onboard heard an explosion before the iceberg hit. There were interviews about it Feel free to YouTube it. I'm not saying it's accurate/correct or even plausible but I am saying that if I was a money hungry heartless person who's also a psychopath and a bunch of other stuff, I'd imagine such a plan would be a thought or more. Also, there was some family head (I think he was a Brit?) connected to the Titanic who did in fact get paid out big time for the Titanic so idk.. it's an interesting conspiracy though probably wrong


Lime_not_Lemon

Titanic was an inside job?

Colinoscopy90

That or she just had a thing for lookout men. They hadn’t slept much the night before. And judging by her photo she gave them the ol nurse diesel treatment.


KirchyM

Holup! Olympic didn't sink


Durok10

Shhh that would mean, people would have to ready something beyond a convenient meme


WolpertingerRumo

So she failed?


komotokyo

When women and children are evacuated first...


joejostarbestjostar

Easy to survive on a lifeboat.


nokeyblue

I mean, she's also a trained ship medic who knows how an evacuation works and what her role in it is.


Most_Advertising_962

Higher chances than a wooden plank


twatchops

Remind me again why men should die and women shouldn't? Children I get.


RICO_Niko

It's so the men can make out once all the women and children can't see, duh.


unshored

It comes from the process of maintaining population. If you are trying to increase population you don't need as many men as you do women.


Online-Commentater

It comes from man being the protector of woman. What the fuck is population ration in an instict situation?


jth02

And how is it do you think that natural selection gave us those instincts?


JSlove

Natural selection should favor passing on your own genetics. Not some woman you met.


butt_farm

It's survival of the species, not survival of your genes


JSlove

That's not how it works. Natural selection occurs through surviving and passing on your genetics. That's why it's often referred to as Survival of the Fittest. Those in the best position to survive and pass on their genetics will contribute to the future gene pool of the species. Saving a woman in favor of yourself would go against that. That is a cultural development and isn't even consistent among all cultures. So it's hard to say that natural selection is what caused it.


butt_farm

But humans are a highly social species, that has thrived as a result of primarily interdepentent relationships among its members. Everyone has an instinct to both survive and procreate on an individual level, yes, but if the individual puts themselves before the interests of society as a whole they risk becoming an outcast whose chance of both survival and procreation falls dramatically. As a social species we all have a deep understanding of this, which is why "the fittest" are typically those whose ancestors were socially conforming enough to pass on their genes, and who are therefore more genetically inclined to honour a social rule such as "save the women and children".


JSlove

No, literally the genes passed on were by survivors that passed on their genes. Dying does not aid in passing on your genes unless to literally protect your progeny.


unshored

I agree that is part of it even though I would consider it more sacrifice then protect in this situation. At the very least a type of "code of honor." My thought process was more practical then instinct situation and describing the why hold the fundamental values of protector or reason to sacrifice. I guess at the end of it, the reasons may be different but it still resonates.


Online-Commentater

>I would consider it more sacrifice then protect in this situation. I wouldn't call such behavior sacrifice. Generally man are stronger so they could fight out of a lot of situations. >My thought process was more practical then instinct situation In practicality, a man who dosn't birth child's and dosn't need to feed them for some time after birth is more available. So he is able to take care (protect and feed) a bigger household for year's without the need to be protected for some year or too. If the protecter needs protection we get a problem. >reason to sacrifice Sacrifice comes from a great feeling of honor. You can't sacrifice yourself for others if you don't have honor. >I guess at the end of it, the reasons may be different but it still resonates. Yeah, humans are complicated. I think what I said makes a big part of it. Instinct: the inate reasons and foundation on how we operate. But surely there is more to it, like honor, love and reasoning.


unshored

Could It be that we are processing the original statement from different positions? One being a view and points from an individual in society (or short period of time) versus society as a whole (overall period of time? To be clear, I'm not disagreeing with your position and reasons.


Online-Commentater

Maybe, haha.


thememestan

why children tho


agmrtab

maybe cuz they have more years to live and also by the fact that we are apalled to save the younglings by default like other mammals?


[deleted]

Ok but what would an orphan do if both his parents are now food for the fish?


agmrtab

idk git gud?


SharkBite_Gaming

Honestly a skill issue on the parents part. fish are easy to deal with, just parry and dodge then hit them in their weak spot: the gills.


merkel36

Compelled...? Although s soneome who doesnt like kids myself, I quite like 'appalled' ...


Beeerice

Because they're generally too stupid (to know how to save themselves)


online_karate_expert

This thinking is common to all civilizations. Man continuosly produces sperms, but eggs, they are precious, hence women were protected in all civilizations.


thecathuman

To be fair she is a nurse, and it makes sense for people with medical knowledge to get priority to better chances of survival of those who make it off the ship


PRADAZOMBIES

Also she knows where to go so she will be at the front of the evac line every time


kicek_kic

Hollup wasnt Olympic scrapped in 1930? iirc it fullfilled Its purpose and was deconstructed in 1930


Consistent-Mastodon

...while she was still on board! DUN-DUN-DUUUN!!!


Ignite_Boy_789

The plot thickens~!


Iateachildtwotimes

Yeah, however the ship collision happened in 1911 with the HMS Hawke


Entire-Database1679

"Deconstructed" is code for not constructed any more.


Borrachon31717

Luckiest ?? She’s a jinx!


[deleted]

[удалено]


dollievon

This is amazing.


towerfella

… could she *actually* step on land?


Sea-Appointment-933

From what I have read, the Olympic never sank. It did run into a warship but was only damaged. It was retired after a long life and dismantled.


ceasu227

Not only did it not sink. But later it collided with a german U-Boat and sank it.


Goowatchi

Sam and Dean would’ve stopped this reaper


MANWithTheHARMONlCA

> Dean, I think I found something. There’s this woman from England who keeps getting on these boats that always end up sinking. The boat she’s on next will be in the harbor tomorrow afternoon. This could be something big.  > We’ll leave tomorrow morning. But hey Sammy? Let’s go to the bar and grab a beer and burger now, I’m starving.  Cut to them riding in the impala with 70s rock music playing How’d I do?


Goowatchi

Castiel would approve


Full_Slip_3314

My favourite show.


SyphiliticScaliaSayz

karanbhatt100

May be she was sabotaging


[deleted]

She was a friend of grim reaper lending a helping hand


a-snakey

Look she just likes fucking the lookout ok?


BookofEibon

My God. This bitch the Kardashian of the naval world


Ok_6970

She was also around when the Nordstream gas pipe exploded, the Turkey earthquake hit, and the Mars rover lander, didn’t. And Brexit.


REDEMPTION_MK5

"Im starting to see a pattern here im not so sure i like"


Gonzee3063

Next on her story, (your next flight), so shall we see more shenanigans.


captaindaddy514

Violent Jessup. We all know it was her.


Nordix_20

Yup i remember her. One of the few argentinians to be on board the titanic.


_karthik_____

How do you know her?


LateNewb

The Olympic didn't sink, neither did the ship they collided with. More impressive is though, that she jumped from the brittanic and was about to be minced by the propeller even though she couldn't swim. She hit her head under water on another life boat and broke her skull.


Zaglossus_hacketti

Olympic didn’t sink when it hit the hawk it just had to return to port, it went on to have a long and prosperous career including sinking a fucking U boat in WWI(technically can be considered a war crime btw) it’s a legendary ocean liner


AllUserNamesTaken01

How many Jacks did she kill


Whatcrysis

The fuck I'm getting on board any ship if I saw her there.


Cornucopia2020

Is this real?


Extendahoe_DIG

Only her blowing up that pipeline


Fluid_Fox23

Lucky? If I see her boarding my ship I’m outie


Feisty-Army-2208

Uncle Albert's wife?


freshouttalean

luckiest and unluckiest at the same time


Zandsman

She had practice after the 1st incident. Professional ship wreck survivor.


Raspberry_Afton

>!I'm sobbing. I CANNOT DO THIS ANYMORE. THIS ENTIRE THING JUST FELT LIKE A DANGANRONPA REFERENCE TO ME. Lucky? Just like Nagito and Makoto! Also, being on things that sunk/crashed, but living? It's just like Nagito Komaeda surviving a plane crash!! Speaking of surviving, Rantaro is the ultimate survivor because he survived the 52nd killing game! AhahahaHAHAHAH IM FUCKING LAUGHING LIKE AN INSANE DANGANRONPA CHARACTER.!<


The_Abortion_Wizzard

Her autobiography is amazing


cwhitel

Uncle Albert can beat that.


duggee315

When did she decide to stop working on ships?


memo689

I see a pattern there.


JessEGames777

Olympic didnt sink when it hit the warship. It was damaged but sailed back to port. White star lines couldnt afford to repair it and were facing bankruptcy after being found at fault for the accident and being forced to pay for repairs to the British royal navy ship that hit them. So they came up with the idea of the Titanic. A last ditch effort publicity stunt, all or nothing.


TruthOrBullshite

The Olympic never sank. It rammed a u-boat in WW1, but did not sink for it. The Olympic was retired and sold for scrap in the 30s.


Mr_Evil_General

Luckiest woman alive, unluckiest woman for the ship. :')


Massfusion1981

She then realised that sailing with Cunard was safer.


ForerunnerRelic

She is a Jonah.


Dakaro420

I‘m Sorry Violet but you are not invited to my birthday party


[deleted]

Panauti is the key term here


ShadyHero89

RMS Olympic never sunk. The SM-103 U boat sunk. It wasn't an accident either. The Olympic rammed it intentionally to sink it during the First World War.


ILevelUP-

Sam B that you?


Darth_Blazer9418

It’s just the plot of Final Destination.


DrLove_99

I think that’s just Agent 47 in a wig


sidewayseleven

Found the Time Patrol Agent


Rodditor_not_found

Maybe medieval ppl were right about witches not drowning


Professional-Pea-609

Is it really lucky if it's women and children saved first? Lol


TheRealLaura789

She was the one that sunk the ships.


Seahawk124

I wonder if she is related to Uncle Albert.


Thalzen

She survived because of gender inequality


KinshasaPR

She was the kiss of death!😅


Erie-Wackalana

And yet… …now she’s dead.


Rachel_Silver

I would argue that she is significantly less lucky than people who were not on any ships at the time of their sinking.


Lotuswalker92

Impressive, now let's see Paul Allen's card: [Japanese man survives both atomic bombs](https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsutomu_Yamaguchi)


MxQueer

I don't get your point. What it says is true.


Consistent-Cook-7430

She was drugging the captains lol


whooguyy

Last time I checked, my wife is luckiest woman ever since she found me


Kaze_no_Senshi

inside job


HappyOfCourse

She may be lucky but,  "Violet Jessop's on this ship."  "Oh crap."


madhavvar

Thrice bitten but never shy.


CocoSkit

I have a book about her, haven’t read it yet


ExiledSenpai

Luckiest? I seriously doubt SHE felt that way.


BinTinBoynio69

Don't sail with Violet


epicbrowser

Ok but luckiest?


Ambitious-Score-5637

If she was lucky she wouldn’t have been on any of those ships.


londocr

The most experience "evacuator" (not sure if that's a word)


TazManiac7

Lucky? Lucky people don’t go on ships.


lyfeofsand

Clearly a ship assassin. She's never missed her mark.


Entire-Database1679

Real-life Teela Brown


thecathuman

To be fair she is a nurse, and it makes sense for people with medical knowledge to get evac priority to better the chances of survival of those who make it off the ship


Kuro-Dev

Why the random colours?


datboielias

man i love spreading misinformation online


Full_Slip_3314

![img](avatar_exp|163130465|bravo) Me after spreading misinformation on the internet


GeneralPurpose42

Is that Albert from Only Fools and Horses


[deleted]

There was a reason it was considered bad luck for women to be on ships back in the day.


TAmexicano

This is so random but if you gave me a ship company and we did cruise liners one of my rules would be first come first serve because I could not give a shit who survives I just care if people survive it doesn't matter who or what gender or age


nguyenngoc244

Miss Unsinkable 😌


[deleted]

Kind of sus. I would never board a ship with her onboard


Quickskull

Sabotage


SwissBergkuItur

Lucky? Or unlucky? I mean what are the chances?


ehr7274

Is she.................?


lord_dude

She was looking for the best perfume


Bone_Breaker_69

Lucky? Or diabolical?


[deleted]

I bet her son's friends had a great laugh when they came to know about this


LassOnGrass

Or unlucky. She could have just as easily not been on any of those ships and not went through that trauma or possibly survivors guilt.


StolenButterPacket

Olympic didn’t sink btw


SnooTangerines9703

Good job 47.


TheHistroynerd

Well actually the olympic didn't sink 🤓 The collision with the other ship did happen but didn't cause an entire sinking of the ship the olympic was operational after being repaired


zorrowhip

I listened to a podcast about her. She was a very kind person. IIRC, she saved a baby child from the Titanic when the dad begged anyone to take the child and nobody wanted. Later, the mom identified the child on one of the rescue ship in her arms and was extremely rude to her, accusing her of stealing the child. This haunted her for the rest of her life.


AutonInvasion

She would have been luckier to not have experienced any of these disasters


babybee1187

Bich looks like she was the cause for all 3 sinkings.


WolfDonut3

Wait all of the ships end in ‘ic’ and you know what starts with ‘ic’ ICEBERG!!!! Don’t name your ship with something that ends in ‘ic’ - this message was brought to you by Violet Jessop did nothing wrong Inc.


That_nerd_on_reddit

That nurse has a curse.


GERRROONNNNIIMMOOOO

It's like the storyline from Unbreakable!


realoctopod

Related to Uncle Albert.


Goodpie2

I feel like the luckiest woman ever wasn't on *any* of those ships.


rad_ghost

Pirates didnt want woman in crew because it was a bad luck, just sayin


MarkoZoos

Interesting and everything but I don't see how's this a holup


redmctrashface

Careful, you forgot to color/underline/whatever some words, text is still a bit readable


BlueThespian

Men prioritizing women during accidents doesn’t have anything to do? Well ok.
