The one I feel truly sorry for is the 19-year-old. Still practically a child and can't fully comprehend risk so of course he trusts following his father into a death trap

I feel the same way. I don't think the 19 year old wanted to be there. There's been a few articles saying he was "terrified" to get in the sub but felt a lot of pressure to do it because he wanted to please his dad and it was father's day weekend.
