'I’m the widow of Titanic submarine victim – their chilling last moments would have been in darkness as vessel descended'
Passengers were advised to wear thick socks and a hat and follow a "low-residue" diet, with no coffee before the dive.The group was told to load their favourite music on their phones to play via Bluetooth- with the exception of country music, per Rush's request.
She said Rush and his wife Wendy had traveled to London to talk about the journey, but said they were still unaware of the technical details. Christine said her husband was amazed by the stories of Nargeolet, who gave a presentation on his previous dives to the Titanic, including the time he had been "stuck down there for three days and the sub was out of communication.""He was lapping everything up. He had this big glow on his face talking about all this nerdy stuff."
They stopped to be weighed as required and Christine recalls her husband saying: "I’m looking quite fat. I’m boiling up already."
