The daughter of a French explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet, who is believed to have perished in the Titanic submarine tragedy said she still harboured hopes of his rescue shortly before parts of the vessel were found on the Atlantic Ocean floor.
Mr Nargeolet, along with OceanGate CEO and founder Stockton Rush, and Brits Hamish Harding, and father and son Shahzada and Suleman Dawood would have been killed instantly when the Titan submersible imploded.
Hopes of rescuing the five were hanging by a thread until they were dashed completely by the US Coast Guard on Thursday afternoon, who revealed a 'debris field' had been located 1,600 feet from the bow of Titanic.
