The youngest person on the doomed Titanic tourist submarine was “terrified” of going on the trip and “only did it for his dad,” a relative has revealed.
British resident Suleman Dawood, 19, was on-board the vessel when it “catastrophically imploded” shortly after starting its journey to see the wreckage of the Titanic.
He was in it alongside his father and fellow British resident Shahzada, OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, British national Hamish Harding and French pilot Paul-Henri Nargeolet.
Speaking the NBC News from her home in Amsterdam, the boy’s aunt Azmeh said that he “wasn’t very up for it” and was “terrified” about the trip before it took place.
And she claimed he only went on it because it happened on Father’s Day.
