The youngest person to explore the famous Titanic wreckage site is now detailing some leading safety issues related to the vessel.
The 11-year-old says that he reportedly fell unconscious and it’s just tragic how the incident that just took place where five lives were lost is beyond heartbreaking. Moreover, he added how something like this could have been avoided too.
13-year-old Sebastian Harris was so young when he made the brave decision to accompany a few others and take part in the OceanGate ride. Despite being so young, he knew immediately that something was not quite right.
But his adventure from 2005 was certainly a moment to remember for him as he claims that he’s never done anything of this sort. Therefore, he received a Guinness World Record for his mega achievement. This was to honor him for being the youngest person to dive into the Titanic.
The youngster confirms how going down 12,000 feet is no one’s cup of tea. But he did that and as scary as it sounds, he was mesmerized at how so many things could have gone wrong, looking back on his journey on this day.
He says everything was fine until he suddenly fell unconscious during his journey in the year 2005. And that was not a fun situation to be in.
Now, he’s recounting the exact moments of his misery that he happened to experience on board the vessel. “My life was at stake here. This was very dangerous, I was so scared”- he revealed.
The journey reportedly took 12 hours and there was even a small security issue that arose there and then. But things were scary when the oxygen levels suddenly dropped and that’s when he fell unconscious.
“There were just so many loopholes. I was so young but looking back at those, I wonder why anyone would pay this much money and risk their lives for it”- he continued.
