The Joe Rogan Experience
Do you know the one one of the dudes that survived the Titanic he was in the
water for two hours?
I think he's a chef and the story was that he got drunk before he went in the
water
he just got hammered because he knew he was gonna die and
Somehow or another because he was drunk he survived
See if you can find that I was reading this I was like, how does that make
sense how a baker survived the Titanic sinking by getting really drunk?
God damn, I had barkers these motherfuckers
Doo-doo-doo
There we go, okay
So can you go back up so I could read the scroll so it says Charles how do you
say that Joe Hinn? How do you say that Jimmy?
Joe Hinn Joe Hinn was one of the disasters most unlikely survivors and he did
it thanks to industrial amounts of liquor
So this dude got super duper hammered
Before he went in the water and somehow or another it helped him survive
It was an almost
Physiologically impossible feat of survival and according to the British
Titanic inquiry is because the 33 year old Englishman
Had the presence of mind to greet history's greatest maritime disaster by
getting smashed
So he knew he was dying he knew he was dying so he just decided to get fucked
up, but he survived
In survival situations having all that warm blood away from the vital organs
means that the drinker is at a greater risk of hyperthermia
however
Canadian hypothermia expert Gordon
Geiss bricked figures in the minus two degrees Celsius temperature of the North
Atlantic the water was cold enough to quickly tighten
Joe Hinn's blood vessels and cancel out any effects of the alcohol
So then at a low to moderate doses of alcohol cold will win out says Geiss bracht
The University of Manitoba professor has performed hundreds of cold water
immersion studies with
Joe Hinn would have had however is the awesome
Lifesaving power of liquid courage
Alcohol remains a leading cause of humans getting into fatal situations
including freezing to death nevertheless the relaxing qualities of the drug
have long been known to give humans an uncanny ability
To survive trauma
This reminded me of the story that lady that passed out and though in the snow
and her friends found her like the next day
And they brought her and she was still alive
Yeah, they're sitting right here in the ER cold patients who are really drunk
can walk in and they're conscious at a temperature that wish that they shouldn't
be
So did you be a drunk keeps you alive keep scrolling down a little more?
That's it. That's it? Yeah. No, no, no. Yeah
His actions might speak to a man unfazed by impending disaster
Immediately upon hearing the collision with an iceberg the chief baker leapt
out of his bunk and began dispatching his staff to stock the lifeboats with
bread and biscuits
This done he popped back into his cabin for a drink before heading topside to
help load lifeboats
Not not only did Joaquin, however I say his name, Jogin
Refuse his own place on a boat, but he and if there's no men like that today,
but he and a few other men became forcibly chuckling
chucking
Reluctant women into empty seats likely saving their lives. He said we threw
them in he testified later top deck of the
Increasingly listing Titanic was mostly cleared of lifeboats by 1:30 a.m
To most this was a panic inducing sign that all hopes of rescue was gone, but
to
Whatever his name is it was a cue to head back to his cabin for another drink
So this dude's just getting fucked up. He sat down on his bunk and nursed it
along
Aware but not particularly caring that the water now rippled through the cabin
doorway wrote historian
Walter Lord in a night to remember Lord was in touch with the dude before the
Baker's
1956 death
He said the dude then splashed topside again
Where he took upon himself to begin throwing deck chairs overboard with an eye
to filling the water with impromptu flotation devices
So the people could float around on the chairs is perched
He then worked his way back to the pantry to get a drink of water the Baker
standing on the stern when the ship broke in half
And yet he remembered the violent catastrophic breakup only as a great list
over to port
There's no great shock or anything he told the Enquirer. So he was just hammered
Definitely moving through the swarms of people
He made it to the stern rail the ship exactly 2:20 a.m. He rode the sinking
Titanic into the sea like an elevator
Whoo
As with all surviving Titanic crew members 2:20 a.m. On April 15 1912 was also
the exact moment in which the white star line stopped paying him
Oh boy
The first stage of cold water immersion is known as cold shock
Horrifying sensation having the skin cool the feelings with the Titanic second
officer
Charles light tower
Described as being like a thousand knives being driven into one's body
So this how did this do survive what did he float around on for two hours? Let's
say
I was just paddling and treading water for two hours. Oh
My god
How come Leo couldn't do that then in the movie just sunk in the water after
two minutes
But this Leo wasn't hammered and he gave up this dude didn't give up
He paddled water for hours. I guess it took a couple hours for them to get
someone to get to them
Yeah, he's after two hours, which is pretty impressive that they got to them in
two hours
I bet you hold in 19 what what was this like 19 or somewhere on there?
The exact 1912 some I don't know the early 1900 so the fact they got to them in
two hours is pretty amazing 1919
No, 107th and yeah, okay
so
Yeah
1912 Wow
