How a 19-year-old boy was among the passengers of the bathyscaphe

Nineteen-year-old Suleman, the son of Shahzade Davud, did not want to go on an adventurous journey. He made it as… a Father’s Day gift.

Two adventurers, a multi-millionaire businessman and his son, and the founder of a company that made a submersible, went on a four-kilometer dive, almost at the limit of Titan’s capabilities, writes CNN Greece.

The sensation was caused by the words of the young man’s aunt that Suleman was horrified by his father’s idea and did not want to participate in the fatal adventure. However, his father passionately wanted to see the wreckage of the Titanic up close, and by agreeing to go with him, the son made a kind of gift for Father’s Day. Azmeh Dawood, his father’s sister, relates:

“He really didn’t want to do it. Suleman didn’t think it was okay and he didn’t feel right. But it was something for Father’s Day. It was an experience that was supposed to bring them closer and he wanted to experience all his life, as did his father. His father wanted it, and Suleman agreed. He was always ready to do anything for anyone. The other four passengers of the boat went for their own reasons and interests. Suleman was there on the occasion of Father’s Day.”

She told NBC that her brother Shahzada Dawood was a “precious angel” and had been interested in the sinking of the Titanic since he was a teenager:

“It was his biggest wish, his biggest dream. Which he finally realized in a unique way. He became part of the legend of the Titanic, and in that sense it was a unique death.”

Father and son Shahzad and Suleman Dawood, 48 and 19, belong to one of the richest families in Pakistan.
