Overview
- Recently released footage captures the sound of the Titan's implosion, occurring 90 minutes into its descent to the Titanic wreckage at a depth of 3,300 meters.
- A delayed message from the submersible, indicating it had shed weights, misled the crew on the surface into thinking the vessel was still operational.
- Investigations and testimonies highlight OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush's dismissal of safety warnings and reliance on an uncertified, experimental design for the submersible.
- Experts describe the implosion as a foreseeable event caused by the use of carbon-fiber materials unsuitable for deep-sea pressures.
- Upcoming documentaries by the BBC and Netflix aim to further investigate the causes and implications of the 2023 disaster that claimed five lives.
