Overview
- Recently released footage captures Wendy Rush, wife of OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, reacting to the sound of the Titan's implosion during its descent to the Titanic wreck.
- The implosion occurred approximately 90 minutes into the dive, killing all five aboard, including Stockton Rush and prominent explorers and businessmen.
- Investigators believe the sound, described as a 'door slamming,' was caused by the sub's carbon-fiber hull delaminating under extreme pressure.
- The footage, part of a U.S. Coast Guard investigation, coincides with upcoming documentaries from Netflix and the BBC exploring the disaster and its systemic failures.
- Ongoing inquiries in the U.S. and Canada continue to focus on OceanGate's safety practices, design flaws, and ignored warnings prior to the fatal expedition.
