For those of you not aware, the baker on the Titanic discussed his alcohol consumption for why he didn’t die:
okay. i remembered the part about the alcohol, but I’d forgotten that basically, after the ship had broken in half and the front end started going down, he climbed over the rail on the front of the ship and rode that sucker down “like an elevator” until the ship went under, at which point, he was able to keep his head out of the water and swim about for the better part of two hours WITHOUT GETTING HYPOTERMIA or having his legs destroyed from the cold. I’m assuming that he imbibed so much alcohol of sufficient proof that it basically acted as anti-freeze.
