    @Ech ehhh, someone posting “that could have been me” on their personal twitter account isn’t really “pumping up their notoriety”, more like… a normal human reaction to learning you avoided death

    blame cnn for making a “news” story out of it

      That “someone” has 21 million followers and makes a living on notoriety.

        Seems like an irrelevant point. What Mr Beast said was that he was invited to join for a trip via sub down to the Titanic. Assuming the same company involved with the implosion offered the invite, that has to be traumatic for him - which he seems to be expressing via that tweet.
