Commander Charles Herbert Lightoller, R.N.R.
Born in Lancashire, England, UK in 1877. Went to sea at thirteen, starting out in masted sailing ships, and survived a shipwreck, cyclone, malaria, near-drowning, panning for gold in the Klondike, herding cattle on the Canadian prairies, riding the rails as a hobo, another storm at sea on a cattle boat, a prank that got him temporarily banned from Australia (yes, the whole place; Boer War jokes aren’t funny DURING the Boer War), and that was BEFORE becoming the highest-ranking officer aboard Titanic to survive the wreck (where he was sucked under, trapped on a grate, made it back to the surface, and spent most of the night keeping twenty men balanced on an overturned collapsible boat).
After that, he spent World War I being the first spotter in an airplane launched from a ship to locate an enemy fleet, surviving another wreck (Oceanic) and the subsequent court-martial, pioneering depth-charge fishing, and eventually retiring…to take tours of German ports and sketching them for the Admiralty, and then piloting his personal yacht to Dunkirk to evacuate 130 trapped soldiers during the evacuation. And that’s skipping the part where he convinced a young lady passenger on the Australia run to make the return trip as Mrs Lightoller. Action, adventure, daring-do and a droll sense of humor about the whole thing. And pretty darn hot to boot.

(via imgTumble)I remember my trip two years ago, to San Francisco. I took a cab to this bridge while my sister was on a conference call.
I stood there for about two hours, looking down, people watching, and wondering how far down the water was.
A girl sat next to me, and asked me, “You’re not going to jump„ are you?”
I smiled and reassured her I wasn’t. That I was just a tourist.
She then said, “You look a lot like my sister. I’m sorry, I don’t mean to make you uncomfortable. But I had to ask, can I hug you? You just look so much like her.”
I felt awkward at first, but then I realized. “She jumped?”
This girl’s face just crumpled, and she started crying. I hugged her, without a second thought, and for some reason I apologized. Not sure what else I could say.
She goes, “Those were the last words she ever spoke to me.”
And I will never forget this girl, her name was Ariana.
