Bill Sauder talks about examining relics from the Titanic, in this clip from a NatGeo special. The perfumes he is talking about belonged to Adolphe Saalfeld, who was bringing samples to the United States in hopes he could market them here. Saalfeld survived the disaster and died in 1926. You can see the perfume case in an exhibit of Titanic relics. -via reddit

My husband and children sat down to watch this program on Sunday. As usual there was a lot of chatter, distraction, in and out of attentions. But when his testimony of the perfumes came on everyone was still, even the 2 and 4 year old. This man's emotion was so genuine, we all nearly teared up.

He choked up and so did Ken Marschall. Both of them invoked a lot of emotion in me too.
