I rather die today

Florence Pannell. Born in 1868, the same year as Tsar Nicholas II. Older than Churchill by 6 years. France still had an Emperor. 18 when the Statue of Liberty came up, 21 when the Eiffel Tower was built. 35 when the first airplane flew, 46 when WWI started, 59 when the first TV broadcast was made, 77 when WWII ended, 89 when Sputnik orbited the earth, 101 when humans landed on the Moon, 111 when the Shah of Iran was overthrown, and died in 1980, the same year as John Lennon. She was the oldest person in Europe at the time of her death. What a ride.

For several decades, airplanes could not fly safely at night. Had no cabin pressurisation. Were not very fast. Had a poor safety record. Before the DC3, no airplane made a reliable profit. The first models that clearly showed that aviation was fast, comfortable and profitable were the DC6 and the Lockheed Constellation. Before 1946-50, one had a right to be a bit sceptical of civilian aviation.

She then proceeded to tell us a story about how she watched a man go withdraw most of his savings out of a bank throw all of his money out on the street and then shoot himself in the head. Died right there. She was a hard ass and a quiet little old lady at the same time. When she died, she passed with a bullet hole lodged in her shoulder. Been there since 1939 she would say and then mutter some curse words about her old ex husband. Once she also told a doctor to piss off because she wasnt explaining why she had that bullet in her and she was 99 and not going to psychical rehab (she broke her hip slipping) and also not going to do anything else she damn well didn't want to do.

My grandmother died last year, in her nineties, and now I’m finally starting to realize, the questions I asked her about things changing over her lifetime was a terribly difficult question to answer. *Everything!* But the essence of our struggle and suffering, will last as long as we have brains. My grandmother was a geneticist and doctor, the kindest and most intelligent person I’ve ever met, and suspect will ever meet. Long life, and best of luck to everyone out there!

I wish this interview were much longer. She was bright, so interesting and so charasmatic. They could've made this at least a half hour, she had so much to share with us. My great grandma was born in 1898, my grandma was born in 1929. Both lived to their mid 90s. My grandma just passed away last month at 95. Sadly she lived in a nursing home for 9 YEARS, she should've never been moved there with nearly a decade of life left, and lost both her mind and physical abilities shortly after moving there. Was essentially a living vegetable her last 5 years.

Most major inventions happened during her time. For thousands of years things were pretty much the same. My dad who was born in1918 and my grandparents in late 1890s would say the same. My grandfather didn't learn to drive or care for cars, but my dad loved everything about them (new generation for cars). It reminds me of the kids now with all the knowledge of technology.

There are two ways of thinking about this video. One is that it is incredible how much changed since she was born. But the other is to consider how modern 1868 actually was. Quite a bit of modern science and technology was already going strong at that point and would see a lot of progress even before the end of that century.

She obviously did not eat in fast food restaurants and probably ate fresh food all her life. Every day a hand full of people turn 100 and usually their positive attitude or good relationship with family members helped a lot. Incredible interview. She was not on meds .and what a difference compared to today with everyone on blood pressure meds etc.

This lady likely knew people born in the 1700s wtffffff (edit): Since there are so many people replying with the same response, i'll explain why what I said was true. In the 1800s, the mortality rate of children was very high which significantly brought down the average life expectancy. People who made it out of their childhood typically lived a long life similar to modern day life expectancies. So if this lady remembers an elderly person from when she was around 10, which would have been in the late 1870s, there is a good chance that person was born in the late 1790s (Yes! 1799 is still the 1700s!). I have seen plenty of photos from the 1800s where there are people who look to be 70 or 80 years old.

Just this alone was a profound change from a past where a day was just one thing, not divided into hours or even for most into activities) However the C20th delivered on the C19th thinking into lots of small improvements in people's domestic lives. So it felt like new gadgets or behaviour was a consistent flow but the thinking was all from the C19th and still is.

@@flashtrash7830 I once read a biography of Sir Sanford Fleming (1827-1915), who invented time zones, and it made the same point. The Industrial Revolution was the biggest material change in human society in ten thousand years, the switch from farming to industry as the mode of production. Fleming was born as the Industrial Revolution was getting started, just before the invention of the railway and the telegraph, and died in a world with telephones, film, cars and aeroplanes. But I would say that Florence Pannell witnessed a lot more changes in society and in technology in everyday life. She was born before the torrent of inventions in the last quarter of the nineteenth century, most notably the telephone, the gramophone, the incandescent bulb, the car and film. She ended her life in a world with jet airliners, colour television, the contraceptive pill and the first personal computers. When she was young, women had far less rights than men, married women were effectively the property of their husbands and a glimpse of stocking was looked on as something shocking. The 1970s saw the permissive society, the Women's Liberation Movement and the Sex Discrimination Act. I love that this Vctorian woman who'd survived to 1977 took down the Victorian Age with humour and made it clear she was on the side of Women's Liberation.

I get good energy from this lady I don’t know why.. she’s so endearing.. rip sweet lady

She was literally in her mid-twenties when Jack the Ripper was around.

Absolutely fascinating! Her clarity of mind and storytelling skills are truly remarkable. It's heartwarming to witness someone with such a rich history share their experiences. She lived through an era of immense change, and her perspective is a treasure. 🌟

Hearing this from a 108 year old woman almost 50 years ago and yet my grandma (who is 83 now) says the same thing. Since her youth EVERYTHING changed. It's incredible, but also a bit frightening HOW fast the world actually changes these days

Did anyone else feel really disappointed when the video ended, I could have listened for hours

YES! Such a shame! They should have hours and hours of this woman’s stories preserved for posterity! I googled to see if I could find more on her. It said; this is all that is known of her “live interview” wise...so sad. An amazing lady!

When this lady was born, we never have had a world war. This lady has seen two world wars.... It's insane.

She lived to watch the peak of colonization, 2 world wars, a moon landing, a cold war, countries come and go. Hell she lived during the indian wars.. Also imagine how music changed for her xD
