Lucciana and Christophe went on a wonderful cruise across the gorgeous Red Sea. However, if they had any idea how the trip would turn out, they probably wouldn’t have boarded. As the ship began to sink, the water was literally all around them. “We do not understand how it is possible that we have ended up in a bubble,” Christophe told the paper Bild. “Apart from the phone I’m talking about now, we lost everything on that ship. We’re alive and that’s the main thing, but all our stuff is gone.” he said.
The couple managed to survive thanks to a lot of luck. An air bubble was created around them, in which they survived an incredible 35 hours. According to the expert, they were extremely lucky. “It depends on where the sunken ship is on the bottom, but an air bubble can easily be there. In that one you can breathe easily as long as there is oxygen left in it.” said Philippe Epelbaum, a submarine expert. “However, you are lucky to survive like this for more than four hours. Over thirty hours,like this couple,is like being born again.” he said.
