Jay Bloom and his son Sean
According to a report by CNN on June 24th, a father and son in the United States stated that they had abandoned their exploration plan a few weeks before the departure of the crashed Titan submersible due to concerns about its diving ability.
American investor Jay Bloom and his son Sean said they watched a video introducing the functions of the Titan submersible before their exploration and were very concerned about its diving ability. Sean, who is 20 years old, said, "I saw many dangerous signals and I don't think it can survive in such deep underwater environments. I warned my father, and he eventually agreed with my opinion."

Bloom and Shawn's seats were ultimately given to Shahzada Daud, a businessman with dual Pakistani and British citizenship, and his son Suleiman. Bloom said that when he saw the news of the father son's death, he thought to himself that it might have been his own and his son's experience.
