British Billionaire's Friend Reveals Chilling Final Text Before Titanic-Bound Sub Went Missing

British Billionaire Hamish Harding, who was aboard the OceanGate Expedition vessel en route to view the Titanic wreckage, sent his friend a chilling text the day before the sub went missing.

OceanGate Expeditions offers private eight-day tours of the wreckage site for $250k per person.

The vessel was reported missing Sunday night when it didn't return to its support ship on time.

Harding's friend, retired NASA astronaut Col. Terry Virts, shared with Good Morning Britain that Harding sent a concerning text the day before the submersible went missing.

It read:

“Hey, we’re headed out tomorrow, it looks good, the weather’s been bad so they’ve been waiting for this."

Harding himself shared his excitement on Instagram before his voyage, revealing that a "weather window" had opened up after what he said was Newfoundland's worst winter in 40 years.

Virts acknowledged that Harding was aware of the risks associated with the voyage.

“He understood the risks for sure, there’s no doubt about that."

He also shared Harding's other risk-associated accomplishments.

“He went down to the deepest part of the ocean, set a few world records...at the Mariana Trench and we talked quite a bit about the risks and the different things that they were going to be able to do."

"So he was very excited about it."

Additionally, Harding has made trips to the South Pole and visited space on the Blue Origin mission last year.
