After the deaths of five people aboard the submarine “Titanic”, new tragic details come to light. Suleman Dawood, 19, who was on board with his father Shahzada Dawood, 48, wanted to set a world record by solving a Rubik’s Cube in the deep sea.
The 19-year-old man had signed up for the Guinness World Records and his father had brought a camera to film the record attempt. “He said, ‘I’m going to solve a Rubik’s Cube at 12,000 feet below sea level on the Titanic,'” his mother, Christine Dawood, told the BBC.
Mother traded places with son
Originally, Dawood should have taken the diving trip to the wreck of the Titanic with her husband. But it was canceled due to the corona pandemic. When the adventure actually happened, she gave up her seat in favor of her son “because he really wanted to come with us,” she said.
Possibly to distract himself from the “fright” reported by his aunt Azmeh Dawood, he came up with the idea of using a Rubik’s cube to solve an underwater world record. He took the spinning puzzle with him everywhere and managed to solve it in just twelve seconds, reports his mother of German descent.
“Titan” disintegrated while descending
The world record attempt never took place. OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush (61), British businessman Hamish Harding (58) and French Titanic expert Paul-Henry Nargeolet (77) died aboard the “Titan” along with Suleman Dawood and his father. , when it imploded. A debris field was later discovered suggesting this.
Christine Dawood was with her Alina, 17, aboard the “Polar Prince” when the submarine departed with her husband and son for her final voyage. There was still cuddling and joking on board, the widow reported. “I was really happy for them because they’ve both wanted to do this together for a long time,” says Dawood.
Remained on mothership during search
She remained aboard the mother ship with her daughter while the search and rescue operation was underway. After 96 hours, she lost hope. The occupants of the “Titan” probably died much earlier. On Sunday, Christine and Alina Dawood held a funeral prayer for them deceased relatives.
Together they wanted to learn how to solve a Rubik’s Cube in honor of Suleman. Dawood declined to speak to the BBC about the ongoing investigation into the tragedy. When asked how she and her daughter would deal with the tragedy, she said, “Is there such a thing? I don’t know.”
