Welcome to the 50th episode of Wild Society!

Jane Toppan was one of the most popular and adored nurses employed at Cambridge Hospital in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She always expressed a pleasant and upbeat personality, earning her the nick name “Jolly Jane”. But Jane had another side….a side of pure evil.

Violet Jessop travelled the world for 43 years as a stewardess aboard ships at sea. Many know her as the “Unsinkable Woman” because she survived not one, but three shipwrecks, two of which the ship completely sank. Being a Titanic survivor, Violet's story is wild and baffling!
