Didn't know this about the baker on the #Titanic! In the classic movie depicting the sinking (1958's "A Night To Remember"), I remember the baker being a little tipsy. Makes sense now!

1/8 Charles Joughin, chief baker on the Titanic, survived for two-plus hours treading water in the frigid Atlantic Ocean after the ship had sunk. The water was reportedly -2°C (28.4°F). Did alcohol aid his remarkable story of survival?
