Welcome back to Bloomin’ Legends! The podcast where Johnny Vaughan and Gavin “The Woodman” Woods dig up the unbelievable, outrageous, and downright legendary stories from history.

In this episode, we meet Arthur John Priest, the luckiest (or unluckiest) man to ever work at sea. A humble stoker from Southampton, Priest somehow survived five shipwrecks, including the Titanic, Britannic, and a series of other naval disasters that should’ve finished him off for good. Yet every time, he crawled out of the wreckage alive, earning him the nickname “The Unsinkable Stoker.”

🚢 The Titanic Survivor – How Priest lived through the world’s most famous maritime disaster

💥 Explosion, Fire & Flood – The unbelievable run of ships he survived afterwards

💀 “Born Lucky” or “Cursed”? – The crew who refused to sail with him again

🔥 A Working-Class Legend – The man who just kept going, no matter what the sea threw at him
