Alfred Gwynne Vanderbilt canceled his passage on the Titanic at the last minute (only to die three years later aboard the Lusitania) He’s like the Donnie Darko of the early 1900s, if you get the reference. To quote Virgil, “Fate will find a way”.

Yes, well, Alfie was an annoying little shit. If the Lusitania hadn`t done him in I`d have topped the insufferable blighter myself.
Yup, there's no cheating the Grim Reaper.
More final destination than Donnie Darko if you ask me. Unless his family didn't die as a result of his death.
I thought the same thing. There are still Vanderbilts around. Anderson Cooper's mother was Gloria Vanderbilt.
