In her first interview, Christine Dawood told the BBC she lost hope when the 96-hour mark passed.
By Nomia Iqbal & Chelsea Bailey in St John's, NewfoundlandTeenager Suleman Dawood, who died in the Titan submersible, took his Rubik's Cube with him because he wanted to break a world record, his mother told the BBC.
"I didn't comprehend at that moment what it meant - and then it just went downhill from there," she said. As well as Suleman and his father Shahzada Dawood, three other people died on board: Stockton Rush, the 61-year-old CEO of OceanGate which owned the Titan, British businessman Hamish Harding, 58, and Paul-Henry Nargeolet, 77, a former French navy diver and renowned explorer.Christine Dawood said the family hugged and joked before Suleman and Shahzada boarded the Titan
"I was really happy for them because both of them, they really wanted to do that for a very long time," she said. Alina held out a bit longer, she said. "She didn't lose hope until the call with Coast Guard. When they basically informed us that they found debris."
