Violet Constance Jessop was an Irish Argentine ocean liner stewardess and nurse who is known for surviving the disastrous sinkings of both RMS Titanic and her sister ship, HMHS Britannic, in 1912 and 1916, respectively. In addition, she had been on board RMS Olympic, the eldest of the three sister ships, when it collided with a British warship in 1911.

Toevallig vorige week in het Titanic museum in Belfast geweest. Was een stukje cultuur naast een hele week werken daar. Toch mooi om te zien hoe enorm trots ze zijn op de bouw van die schepen, ongelooflijk ook om te zien hoe alle klinknagels werden vastgezet, een linkshandige en een rechtshandige samen per klinknagel om zo om de beurt te kunnen meppen met de hamer. The Olympic werd tegelijkertijd naast de Titanic gebouwd btw.

Launched by NASA in 2009, LRO normally stares down at the cratered surface of the moon – but took a moment to snap this modern-day “Earthrise” composite photo.


Dacht eerst dat het nep was maar blijkbaar dus niet.

Ik wist niet dat ze van de '86th floor' sprong. Opmerkelijk dat haar lichaam nog in die toestand was.

Zelfmoord Nota

I don't want anyone in or out of my family to see any part of me. Could you destroy my body by cremation? I beg of you and my family – don't have any service for me or remembrance for me. My fiance asked me to marry him in June. I don't think I would make a good wife for anybody. He is much better off without me. Tell my father, I have too many of my mother's tendencies.

In 2019 is ze nog steeds 'The most beautiful suicide'...

Ken iemand het verhaal achter deze foto?

In 1982, Hilda Bridges sued the publisher of the Florida newspaper Cocoa Today after it printed in its newspaper without her consent, semi-nude photos taken during her abduction and rescue. Bridges had been forced by her estranged husband to disrobe while he held her hostage in an attempt to keep her from escaping. When police stormed the apartment, her estranged husband turned the shotgun on himself while Bridges was rushed to safety still naked, only clutching a dishtowel to hide her exposed body. From behind the police line, a journalist photographed the obviously traumatized Bridges at her most vulnerable and sent the proofs to the news organization.

Weten we dat ook weer...
