How Whiskey Saved the Head Baker of the Titanic

Charles Joughin was an acclaimed chef. He was best known for being the head baker on the RMS Titanic.

Although the extravagance of the voyage is well known, the pastries that Joughin was responsible for creating are not why he is remembered. Instead, Joughin is best known for his remarkable survival in the face of imminent death.

Historians and scientists attribute his survival to one thing: the sheer amount of alcohol he consumed that night.
