The Titanic is sinking. The passengers and crew on the ship are running around in fear. That's where Charles, the head baker and head baker of the ship's bread making team, comes forward.
Charles distributed as many loaves of bread as possible so that those who escaped by boarding the lifeboats would not starve.
After that, he ordered as many children and women as possible to be saved.
Finally,
The moment he realized that 'it will sink anyway, and after a while he will no longer be in this world,' Charles walked towards the unopened bottles of alcohol lying on the ship.
The next thing Charles did was to drink as much alcohol as possible. Charles's goal was not to 'get drunk and pass out' so as not to witness a major disaster.
Charles, who was drunk and unlucky, walked to his cabin. Even as he walked, he kept throwing as many tables and chairs as possible into the sea.
He thought it would help someone who was in the sea to hold on to it and not drown.
Finally, he jumped into the sea. Many people were struggling to hold on to wooden boats in the sea and not drown. But many could not survive the cold and died within minutes.
However, the alcohol in his body helped Charles to resist the extreme cold. Charles held on to life in the cold Atlantic Ocean for several hours.
He kept paddling forward as best he could. A lifeboat soon came to his rescue.
When he finally reached land, there was no injury on his body. Not even a small wound to prove that he had been at sea for several hours.
Charles' story does not end here. Later, he joined the Navy and lived a successful life until the age of 78.
Charles' life proves that Presence of Mind often keeps you from drowning in many crises.
