"We're all very happy" - Serena Williams' husband Alexis Ohanian reacts to MrBeast declining invitation to ride OceanGate's Titan submersible 

Serena Williams' husband and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian recently expressed his elation upon learning that Jimmy Donaldson, also known as MrBeast, declined the invitation to ride OceanGate's Titan submersible.

On June 18, 2023, the submersible, Titan, operated by OceanGate, tragically imploded during its descent. The submersible was carrying five passengers who were on a tourist expedition to observe the wreckage of the Titanic.

After an extensive search that lasted nearly 80 hours, a remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) discovered a debris field containing parts of the Titan. The debris was found approximately 500 meters from the bow of the Titanic.

Renowned YouTube content creator, Jimmy Donaldson aka MrBeast, took to Twitter and disclosed that he received an invitation to embark on OceanGate's Titan submersible. He shared a screenshot of a text message he received presumably from one of the passengers. The message detailed the sub's expedition to the infamous Titanic wreckage site and asked the YouTuber to join the voyage.

However, the 25-year-old Donaldson declined the invitation to board the doomed submersible.

"I was invited earlier this month to ride the titanic submarine, I said no. Kind of scary that I could have been on it," MrBeast tweeted.

Reacting to the news of MrBeast's decision to decline, Alexis Ohanian took to Twitter to express that he and others were relieved with the choice made by the YouTuber.

"We're all very happy you declined dude," Ohanian tweeted.
