Brit who travelled on doomed sub today said he was stunned by news it had sunk

A British tourist has spoken of her shock after learning that the Sindbad submarine she travelled on just days earlier sank, killing six people.

Kelly Collins, 32, from Wigan, Greater Manchester, took the trip in Hurghada, Egypt, on 24 March and now says she will never go on a submarine again.

Fellow Briton Tom McDowell, 63, who travelled on the same sub last year, recalled feeling safe due to the crew’s professionalism.

He described the trip as scenic but now says he will avoid submarines. The tragedy has left former passengers in disbelief over the vessel’s fate.
