It's probably sad for the people who are connected, but it's not really all that tragic. Some people died doing something extremely risky.
I find the 19yo kid’s death tragic. He was probably coerced into going. Everyone else, I quite agree with you.
I read somewhere that his dad (the second richest man on the sub, pakistani oligarch family member) pushed him to go because "it's fathers day, we have to".
It's tragic that the 19 year old died, and I hope that his family can eventually cope with the fact that he got coerced into death by his own dad.
It has since been reported that Suleman Dawood was actually very excited about going on the sub, and had been previously disappointed when he couldn't go the first time the dive was scheduled because he was only 17, so his mother was going to go instead. That dive was cancelled, he turned 18, and you know the rest.
