Who had the saddest death on Titanic?
I'm my opinion, Isidor and Ida Straus' deaths were the saddest, in both reality and the movie.
When the Titanic hit the iceberg, and they knew sinking was inevitable, Ida — being a first class passenger and a woman — was immediately given a spot on a lifeboat. Isidor took her to her lifeboat, but when they got there Ida refused to get on.
Isidor was even offered a spot on the lifeboat (because he was such a noted passenger), but turned it down because according to witnesses he said he "would not go before other men."
Isidor was the Co Owner of Macy's by the way
EDIT: First Class passenger Hugh Woolner offered to ask an officer if Isidor could be allowed into the boat as an exception, and Isidor refused to let Woolner ask. Credits to u/kellypeck
