About this person

Frederick Fleet was a British merchant sailor who survived the sinking of the RMS Titanic. He served as a lookout on board the RMS Titanic and was likely the first to sight the iceberg that the ship struck on the night of 14 April 1912, ringing the warning bell and reporting "Iceberg, right ahead!" to the bridge. Fleet survived, leaving the ship in Lifeboat No. 6, and later maintained at both the American and British inquiries that he and his fellow lookouts would have seen the iceberg sooner had they been supplied with binoculars.
