-James Cameron on the Titan implosion
One of his friends was on board, his anger is beyond justified
@@devonchafe2764 Absolutely. I know James was very close to PH. Monsieur Titanic was one hell of a historian. Concerning Stockton, I’d have had actual respect for him if he’d stuck to solo dives. Almost everything about his submersible was experimental - he had no business taking ticketed passengers down with him.
@@jamesm3471 and he subjected them to very intense sales pitches, almost forcing people by whatever psychological means he could.
A spoiled brat. Born with a silver spoon up his arse so thought he must be smart.
The 19 year old is who my heart goes out to. He was scared but went cause it was fathers day. RIP to all involved.
adult make his own bed
and? no one care
@@curtissea5340 he was 17 not an adult.
@@hadi_LN no you fatherless kids dont.
@@dfcvdahe was 19, as clearly stated. However, I'd like to see any 19-year-old say NO to his billionaire dad.
What I just learned like yesterday was that Stockton Rush told one of his passengers from awhile back (AFTER they took the trip to the Titanic) that he got the carbon fiber "at a good discount" from an airline industry source because the carbon fiber was "older" & what was sold to Stockton Rush was not considered to be viable for use any more in the airline industry. He then reassured that passenger that it was 'completely safe.' This is the type of guy Stockton Rush, CEO of Ocean Gate was. Had an ego the size of Texas & was basically a very unconscionable person. I hope the families of the victims get a buttload of $$ from that company, but I seriously doubt they will. Stockton Rush, when you boil it all down, was nothing more than a modern-day snake oil salesman.
Was this the carbon fibre after the rebuild, or of the original build of the submarine?
@@Lscott-fk2sngood question, & that detail wasn't specified in what I heard. However, my thinking is that Stockton probably bought a large batch of it (the carbon fiber was laid down @ a thickness of 5", although Stockton was advised to lay it down to a thickness of 7"...yet one more willful dismissal of safety by him), & it was used in all versions of the Titan. But I'm not 100% certain of that.
I also read elsewhere that the carbon fiber layer was recommended at 7 inches thick minimum by his engineers, and that he skimped out using only about 5 inches. If he used expired carbon fiber rolls then he was really pushing his luck and it was only a matter of time before a catastrophic failure of the pressure vessel occurred.
I think legally they're covered the sign an extensive waver before you're allowed to dive.. It apparently mentions risk of death 3 times on the first page.
Billionaire doesn’t mean you know Jack shit about Boyles Law . He got what he deserved and the passengers shouldn’t have trusted him they’re just as much to blame . As a ten year old worshiping the 1978 ALVIN submersible National Geographic magazine issue I could have told you that submersible design was a POS. 💀🤡💀🤡
the "indestructible" Titan resting just a little ways from the "unsinkable" Titanic
Inb4 the unbreakable Titania in 2034.
It is oddly comforting to believe the people whose lives were lost died very quickly. I do hope that was the case.
I don't see how it wouldn't be the case
It was most likely not even a drowning more like being vaporized
I honestly doubt anyone on board had time to even contemplate their exit from existence, let alone feel any pain. There very well may have not even been any warning signs prior to implosion, a pinhole intrusion at those depths would have caused such a pressure gradient change at such a speed that anyone or anything inside would have been molecularly disassembled so fast as to be seamless. That is why carbon fiber is not used by James Cameron, too brittle....
@@T3hderk87 James Cameron doesn't do what James Cameron does for James Cameron. James Cameron does what James Cameron does because James Cameron is... James Cameron.
@@jhoughjr1 Ugh.
When the person operating your submersible is known to have said "safety is just pure waste", you should never even consider joining him on a voyage to 12,000+ feet underwater.
With a video game controller at that.
@@wadewilson8011 Even if they decided to use a multi-thousand-dollar control system made specifically for submarines, the sub was still doomed to implode. The brand of controller they decided to buy just shows the owner's mentality on building of the sub: buy the cheapest parts possible.
He also said "we are remembered for the rules we break" thinking he was being avant garde... Little did he know how right he was...
@@Anothy you're COMPLETELY missing the point. If this clown was too cheap and he egotistically cut corners (said literally from his own mouth) he's going to do it with every aspect of his knowledge of engineering. Don't try to sugarcoat or make up insipid excuses for this idiot's logic. The fact that if he used a multi thousand dollar control system or not, and it didn't cause the implosion is completely REDUNDANT!
The point is this clown's mindset, his hubris, lack of respect, and ignorance for nature and the laws of physics. His used of a game controller to actually control the vessel ITSELF and not equipment should speak for itself. I guess you didn't get the common sense memo.
Hell I barely have a college education before joining the military, and even I can read between the lines and figure that all out.
he basically killed 4 people and took the easy way out.
The vessel was not 'rebuilt' in 2018, it was an entirely different vehicle. It was originally called 'Cyclops 2' later named 'Titan' just before the launch. Some of your video shows Cyclops 1. This is an entirely different sub with a different hull, large front window area and top hatch.
He f--ked around and he found out, unfortunately he took four other people with him.
Yes, yes, so unfortunate that we lost a few billionaires that wont be able to steal wealth from the working class anymore. Such a shame.
One of the things I found odd during the coverage of this saga was this: There were no interviews with representatives of OceanGate. The company executives and advisers seemed to successfully isolate themselves from media scrutiny and apparently have continued to do so.
the devil works quick but morbid midnights works faster!
And works in mysterious ways!................No wait, that's jebus.

Almost as fast as an implosion at 12,000ft.
Damn, you sure got this right, quicker than quick!!!🙏😢⚓❣️

The deep water sub ( different sub. The Titan wasn’t certified. ) was made of carbon graphite and went deeper than any other sub but it was only certified for one dive. They said the composite hull can’t withstand multiple cycles.
So essentially, he suckered the customers. Ah well, he went down with his ship. The relatives can now sue the company to oblivion. I hope they do, so no one gets this greedy again.
I'm 20 years in software engineering so I feel this! We're not even dealing with human life and we test our stuff better
They should have taken advice from Cameron. 33 dives & holding the record for deepest dive. WOW 🤯
@@cynthiagonzalez658 he used certified submarines.
@@properfpv7160
I'm guessing that he values his life👍😲
The more I read about Stockton Rush, the more I'm not sad that he was compressed to the size of a beachball before exploding into a gel of biomatter.
Pop goes the oligarch!
At the time the Titan went missing, the crew of the Polar Prince heard an audible and significant 'bang' from the depths. This was of course the Titan imploding. During descent an issue was encountered and the crew had dropped their weights and were attempting to ascend at the time of the implosion. This information came from James Cameron and industry insiders. At least it happened before their brains could process it, but the lead up would have been beyond terrifying 💔
Interesting. I've not heard this in any of the coverage I've seen. What is the source for this information please?
@@nigeldepledge3790 sorry, maybe start at 8mins :)
@@nigeldepledge3790 Hey Nigel :) did you have a chance to check it out?
Just noticed that the landing frame was lashed around the weakest point of the craft as well; the part where the titanium end caps are bonded to the carbon fibre hull. So as well as being the weakest point, it’s got the frame and diving weights to support.
Idk if that is the weakest . In the assembly that area has the full thickness of CF and of Ti to a fair aont of overlap.
That should stiffen that area against the load of the landing legs I would think .
@@jhoughjr1 There's hardly any overlap. The construction video shows the process and the bonding joint between titanium end rings and CF hull is only about 2 inches deep. I'd put money on this area being the point of failure.
@@wattage2007 it looked like more than two to me in the assembly video cause they smeared glue over far more area than two inches. The glue interface could have failed but it also could have been fatigue on any point of the carbon fiber. It was overall waker over cycles than the glue/titanium I think. But either that interface or the window could have been it. Hopefully we can piece together how it happened in detail. It wasnt a complete failure till it was.
@@jhoughjr1 Indeed. There are so many potential points of failure it’s going to be difficult to identify the one which caused this accident.
The "noise" heard by the Navy was reported to the on-scene command right away. Per the Coast Guard presser at the end, the families were notified of this information quickly after it was learned. The people who needed to know were notified. In any search and rescue mission, until you can confirm information or find the item you are looking for, you keep looking. It took a number of days to get the proper equipment out to this site, organize it, and deploy it - another danger in doing this is such an unforgiveable location. Once the proper equipment was deployed it located the sub in short order. Search and recovery ends.
Exactly. They didn't know for sure it was an implosion until they find the debris. Could be coincidental noise in the ocean
You are correct sir. It's infuriating hearing people act like the Navy has a room full of people listening to the underwater microphones and knew exactly what happened, exactly who it happened to and where it happened. They had a time frame they could go back and find any anomalies that might sound out of place, like a little pop from the general area. Even knowing the time frame, they had to go through a lot of data to pull it out from all the sound those mics pick up. It takes time and that's what happened. They weren't even 100% it was an implosion at first, just a noise they said was consistent with an implosion. Those were billionaires on the sub, do people really think they were gonna give up once the navy shared their info. They had to be 100% sure.
I also heard that it was good experience for people to practice search and rescue. Since they had to confirm it anyway, they used it as an opportunity to teach people. Not a bad idea at all.
This is the same as what happened with the USS Thresher.
I went to hit your subscribe button, and I got this sinking feeling inside...
Good one!!!
Just don't get an imploding feeling...
RIP all on board
One man's pride and constant disregard of safety measures cost him, and 4 others, their lives.
There are submersibles, properly made and graded for the depths they travel to and it is still a terrifying endeavour. He simply wanted to quickly commercialise submersible travel and make some $$.
I don't think it was just about money. I think it was about HIM. HE wanted to be an inventor of a brand new type of "streamlined" submersible. HE wanted to be praised as a genius and a guy who thinks outside the box. What do these other guys know about with their useless safety regulations?
Total greedy asshole he deserved to be turned into a Mountain Dew can . 😂🤡💀
That's not true. The submersible had made several trips to the Titanic with no major issues. And as far as the 'billionaires' being on board, they were not just wealthy tourists. They were mostly people who had helped finance the project, and other than the 19 year old, had contributed to the millions of dollars needed for research and construction of the vessel...
@@vissitorsteve but it didn't have proper testing or grading to go down that far, or the proper maintenance in between trips.
Were the people on board truly aware of the safety shortcuts?
@@Shawaeon completely agree, he wanted the prestige. But he cut all the wrong corners to try to get it, now he is infamous.
Those who survived those dives are probably counting their lucky stars. My heart breaks for the family that lost both the father and son (so young) and for the others who also lost their loved ones. The only grateful thing was that an implosion is a quick, painless death. They wouldn't have even known it happened.
I totally didn't know about the 2019 collision with the Titanic wreck. Thank you for doing all the research you do
So many takes on this. Aside from billionaires and wastefulness....a 19 year old good son and friend lost his life. RIP Suleman
spam in can?
Ham in a tube?
James Cameron is living legend.
The keyword is LIVING after three dozen deep dives, including once to the deepest part of the sea.
I have no idea why they thought that just because a sub is theoretically capable of 13,000ft that it would do that in real life.
Any sudden alteration in inertia and you could easily make the submarine experience *more* pressure than the pressure of the depth it is at.
ALWAYS leave room to spare:
a sub that goes down to 13,000ft ON THE REGULAR - without constant inspections AND servicing before and after trips should at least be certified for depths of 15,000 ft.
"theoretically"
The submersible had made previous trips to the Titanic before.
@@vissitorsteve And EVERYONE who was anyone repeatedly told them is was ridiculous and that they were crossing the line. They were warned again and again by many with knowledge & experience, but skirted regulations and thumbed their noses at those who tried to reason with them. There is gonna be a HELLA lawsuit real soon.
@@vissitorsteveThe repeated trips are one of the main safety concerns. Every trip down and up subjects the submersible to incredible pressure and then a release of that pressure. That causes a strain on the material that the submersible is is made of. Steel and titanium are well studied in how they react to this strain/cycle of pressure and release. Carbon Fiber reacts very differently. Unlike steel ant titanium which are uniform, all the same material, carbon fiber is a matrix of the fibers and the adhesive that the fibers are imbedded in. It’s great as long as there are no voids, cracks or dings. The repeated use of the submersible means that cracks or voids could develop over time just from the application of pressure and its release. That is to say nothing of any bumps or dings that could also cause cracks or imperfections which at the depths that the Titanic rests at could cause catastrophic failure and an implosion. That’s why people are discussing the thickness of the carbon fiber and the quality of the material. That is the safety margin that most are concluding was lacking.
It's even worse. The acrylic porthole and carbon fiber as material for the hull were never even theoretically designed to go anywhere that deep. This thing was a death trap even in theory. There is no excuse for it. The CEO was insane.
Ocean Gate provides a real Titanic expetience ......
Thanks for doing this video. I haven’t watched any news coverage but I heard about the accident. I’m a long time subscriber and I knew you would present this well. Thanks again!
Major props to you as a content creator. Your stuff is always high quality. Now we see and hear this equally high quality, and still fact-dense content, uploaded in an impressive turn-around time. Seriously. Major props.
I remember the excitement my father tried to hide when Dr Ballard located the wreck. I have no idea how many dives he's been on or how many submarines other than the usual three, ALVIN, Johson Sea-Link 1 and the Johnson Sea-Link 2 but only recently after watching cave diving disasters and a documentary on the USN Thresher built a few miles from me just how insanely dangerous his job was. There are no mistakes deep in the ocean, only instantaneous fatalities. Rest in Peace
Nice video... Hoever you describe the Titan while having an image of the Cyclops I... there are fundamental differnences between the 2 vessels.
Thank you for gathering, assembling, and presenting the actual facts regarding the loss and leaving out the sensationalism and speculation as has been offered by the media.
Well done and appreciated.
Incredibly well done. Full of facts previously unknown to me from newscasts.
Thank you for noting the difference of the Navy using a game controller to control a photonic mast ie a periscope and not actually maneuvering the sub itself. I'm not aware on any manned craft in the military that uses a game controller. Just drones and turrets stuff like that. The controller used on Titan was also not likely a fire certified electronic which in sealed environment is very important.
Stockton's behavior surrounding the construction and use of Titan is no different than bad car customers I regularly have to deal with here at my shop. I always tell people, spend the money to do it right now, or you will pay more in the long run with a catastrophic failure. This is true for even the most basic of repairs going all the way up to high-end car modifications. But unfortunately in Oceangate's instance, he paid with his life and took 4 innocent lives with him, something he will have to answer to his God for.
Reminds me of the old saying "a poor man pays twice"
Hell yea, I always make sure all the gear keeping my car on the road is in the best order. My car likes consuming oil so it gets frequent oil changes. Never take safety for granted.
The main difference though the billionair was cheap because arrogance. Poor are cheap out of desperation for the most part I because I played that game with my car before
@@Michael-sb8jf I see the same narcissistic arrogance even with lower-income individuals when it comes to car repairs and modifications.
"If you haven't SUBscribed already..." .... stealthiest pun ever....lol
Recently discovered your channel and really loving the videos you make! It would be really cool if you could add your sources to the notes. I always want to look into stories more, but it's not always easy to do.
Another great one from “the great one”… thank you so much for posting your content. It is exquisite.👌🏻
Sweeeet. I was hoping you'd cover this
18 million pounds of pressure and they didn't even see it coming.
I admire the guys engineering skills. I also don’t agree with his “if you don’t like risk don’t get out of bed” model. I think there is no risk getting out of bed and driving to work, vs going down on a self made submersible.
Re-rated for depths up to 13,000’….but not by any recognized deep sea organization!
More like a tap-tap-tap on the hull by the CEO himself saying “Yup! She’s good to go!”😢
You would think Paul and Hamish would know better than to go down in this thing. Both had extensive experience diving in certified submersibles. I know PHN had gone down in Titan prior to this trip. I guess he felt confident that nothing could go wrong. Who knows? RIP to all that perished.
what baffles me the most is that this "homemade sub" (calling it homemade considering its build quality) has been able to go down quite a few times before this tragedy happened. One of the previous passengers said that he could feel the sub going deeper and deeper because he would hear cracking sounds from the carbon hull.
As a scientist, I really question the way this planned. I’ve worked on experiments with health consequences for mistakes; safety comes first. I believe there is a need for private biotechnology companies. Grant funding is scarce so offering commercial services to finance research. But submarine travel is something that should not be readily accessible.
lol, go back to bed.
I don't have a problem with submersible travel being common. If wealthy people want to blow their money on some expensive field trips then that's their decision but safety should always come first.
There's no room for error at those depths.
They signed their lives away with the waiver and paid $250k to die.😢 Can't help but think it could have been avoided.
Sheer madness of enormous proportions.
Can’t think but help it could have been avoided huh? Good take lmao
There is gonna be a HELLA lawsuit real soon. EVERYONE who was anyone repeatedly told him this is was ridiculous and that he was crossing the line. Warned again and again by many with knowledge & experience, but skirted regulations and thumbed his nose at those who tried to reason with him. Billionaire man-baby thinks the rules don't apply - there are a lot of these kind of narcissistic a$$holes in the world these days.
@@LittleBlueOwl318 They cannot sue. They all signed away the ability to sue for any negligence/death.
I think the same thing about the use of that unneeded emoji.
To clarify: It wasn't certified to reach those depths. It reached them just because that's what they wanted to do. The glass in the sub was only rated for 1,300m so that's technically the deepest the sub should've been going (on a bad day). You generally don't go to the limit of your sub's abilities but under them. This sub should've only been going to 1,200m NOT 3,800m.
this was a great video, but the emphasis on SUB in "subscribe" in the end left me laughing. Well done, sir!
So sad, my prayers go out to all the families. Truly heartbreaking
Well, at least it ended quickly for them. Having a sense of curiosity and an adventurous streak is great... right up until the laws of physics give you a reality check.
6:55 this image is not Titan. This is another submersible owned by Ocean Gate, that's designed for much shallower dives.
Imagine you imploded in that sub - it happened so damn fast you don't really even know you're dead or wtf just happened and then all the sudden all the Titanic ghosts come out of their watery tombs and Davy Jones's locker to greet their new eternal companions. Fucking terrifying.
The ocean is scary place and some people just don't understand that smh
The Titanic's 'Grand Staircase' all the 1st class passengers in their ghostly finery coming down...woooo! All draped in seaweed and urchins and sea gunk. Whaaaat the faaaaack, lol!
Who's gonna write the ghost story lol? ME ! Bwaaaahahahahahahaaaaaa!
Jack and Rose were no doubt there to greet them.
They'd have to pay me 250k to go in any submersible. I'm claustrophobic and deep water give me the creeps.
I've been watching your videos for a while now. Since you asked nicely at 13:30 I just SUBscribed.
Damn... You didn't waste any time did you!🤣
its weird how the navy knew it imploded and didnt let the public know until the debris field was found
J. Bruce Ismay was often judged for his cowardice. Stockton Rush will be judged for his carelessness.
Nice work getting this one out so fast.
Commercial dive school graduate and PADI Open Water scuba instructor I know my underwater dive physics most importantly Boyles Law pressure vs volume relationships. This is a tale of human stupidity and greed did the sub builder ever consult Woods Hole Institute home of the ALVIN legendary submersible and pay to a) lease the craft or B) commission a sister vessel based on blueprints from the first Alvin ? Of course not !! Why? They tried to fit 5 square pegs ( people ) into a rectangular hole !!! ALL successful DEEPWATER submersible feature a thick TITANIUM SPHERE capable to accommodate two or three scientists MAX. 12k feet below sea level is no place for “tourism “ and profit margins !!!!!! The Marianas Trench east of the Philippines is over 30k feet deep and was reached in the early 1960s by the Trieste bathyscaphe almost all ballast above and the ONE essentially component for withstanding crushing pressures - that’s right , a TITANIUM SPHERICAL diving bell that I believe only had room for two scientists. Oh- and the retarded “ninety six hours “ of O2 for emergencies NOT HAPPENING they would have died of hypothermia long before the batteries for the heaters on that death machine I’m sure were cheap small and unreliable !!!!!!💀🤡💀🤡
Glad you got this out so fast and beat the competition. Hopefully you'll get all the subs and views you deserve for such a great channel.
MrDeified got there at least 12h earlier yesterday, but I greatly prefer Morbid Midnight
This video was well done and very informative I watched the interview with the mother of Suleman and she stated she was the one that was supposed to go on this trip but her son really wanted to go so she decided to trade places. I can't imagine what she is going through right now. I think that finding out they did not suffer helped. Such a sad ending.
I recall sub brief saying they had an inertial navigation system, which is not as good as GPS-especially after hours of use-, but it works underwater
Id like to just thank the men who sacrificed their lives to give us some hilarious memes for this past week
This is indeed tragic, but makes sense legally.
Example: when an experimental aircraft YOU built or bought homemade parts for crashes, failure is all your liability still (or the backyard manufacturer). Regulators have a hard enough time inspecting normal crafts on a mass scale to keep a standard of safety.
There are laws, regulations, and procedures already in place for research/industrial uses of may water/land/air crafts. Why should regulators care about the crazy expiremental ones if they willing line up to be in danger?
You said "13 dives". They NEVER completed 13 dives. This was their 3rd or 4th.
The 5th of 2023, 14 total
The searchers were away of the Submersible's fate in the first days. They decided to be sure and notify relatives rather than leak the news that it had imploded...thus the days of hope continued.
Ah, days of hope to rake in the views and get that sweet ad revenue. Classic.
Another simply perfect video from @Morbid Midnight Thanks!

6:51 thats not the titan, but another ocean gate sub
Sounds like a real cowboy operation running this sub. How some of these people, whom you'd think would know better, would get aboard at all baffles me.
Also refusing to hire experienced people hurt as well.
After he fired David Lochridge for pointing out safety concerns, he preferred getting staff straight out of college who would have the confidence the cames with years of experience to say "boss, this isn't good enough" .
experienced people would tell him no. he wanted people either ignorant or afraid to question him
I'm sure you know this, but the Titanic was found by (Commander) Robert (Bob) Ballard. Sounds like rush put money above safety, and cut corners wherever he could. I feel bad for the 4 others who lost their lives, and their Family and Friends. Especially the 19 year old. RIP. Thank you for the Great video.
Yeah it’s sad that the 19’year old kid didn’t really have an independent decision and was trying to do it for his dad. I heard he even told family members he was scared to do it

@@jamesc5751 okay, I get that I'm a taxpayer too. Empathy is a conscious choice for Moi
No follow up to this since the communication logs with the support ship came out? The were dropping like a stone, MUCH faster than the maximum safe rate of descent. The a-hole in charge said nothing as they reached 3400m depth a full hour ahead of schedule. He didn't try to blow ballast and emergency ascent until they were only a few hundred meters from the bottom. Everyone knew by that point. They tried ascending but couldn't get past 3500m, then they reported crackling sounds as the hull started giving, then.... well you know. If he had tried to emergency surface as soon as he noticed he was not in a controlled descent, they were only a few hundred meters down at that point and they SURELY could have survived.
Am I the only one that noticed how he emphasized SUBscribe at the end (at 13:32)? I see what you did there buddy. That was clever.
Great video with good research, however steel piping was used as ballast, not pvc.
They actually installed a thruster on backwards and nobody thought to test it they didn't find out untill the sub was 2.5miles under the water spinning in circles on the ocean floor that's really all you need to know about Oceangate..🤦🏽♂️
I just hope the length of time between they knew something was horribly wrong and the moment they imploded was fast. I can't imagine the horror. RIP
Over 100 years later and man still hasn't learnt 😢
Yeah that he's being manipulated and distracted for whats to come. New financial system, 4IR.
You have a nice voice.
heckin fast
Ironically got a got junk ad on this
Although it was a disaster it did make it 13 times! but at that point id wanted a new tube.
The wreckage may be located in international waters. But the company is registered somewhere (physical address, tax district, etc). And unless its submersibles were entirely built, docked, launched from, and operated exclusively in international waters, all of which seem very implausible, they would have had to be registered somewhere. That means they would have also been inspected by someone at some point, even if they were just passing through another country's waters to get there, right? So why weren't they? Who, if anyone, dropped that ball? How did they COMPLETELY circumnavigate maritime law just by DIVING in international waters?
Cough$$$sneeze
@@greyfriars6540 Hopefully that's about to change post haste.
I saw a headline last night the Canadian authorities have opened an investigation into the mother ship, since it’s registered in Canada
@@Syclone0044 At least someone is doing something. But that will undoubtedly be cold comfort to the families of the passengers.
Who certified the inspection over the refurbished unit? What did the inspection look for? Is the ballast really made out of PVC? I think it looks to me like it's steel drilling casing.
I don't know what your interest is but what you do produces high-quality. Clear and precise.
Would it surprise you to learn the sub wasn't independently certified?
An individual even complained about this and was fired....
Needless loss of life due to one mans hubris
I was expecting disturban history to upload first 😂
Or fascinating horror
MrDeified did post first about 12+h prior to this video
I don't really understand the utility of having a sensor system to monitor the hull integrity. At that depth you're doomed if that alarm has to sound.
Couldn’t pay any amount of $ in that death trap! I’m surprised that Henri-Paul got in that coffin?
So if I’m texting Go Left what if it auto corrects to Go right???
Died squealing like pigs after the alarm sounded. No doubt in my mind, none whatsoever.
Yes I agree there was definitely an "oh 5hit" moment before the hull breached. They were not blindsided. But based on what I've heard and seen about Stockton Rush, the other passengers probably were probably asking if they should resurface when they started hearing cracking noises from the carbon fiber hull, only to be rebuffed and ridiculed by Rush until it was too late.
I cant understand why anyone would even want to tale this trip... you wont be able to see anything "in preson" or dofferent from the footage recorded back in the 80s. That tiny sub looked so cold and uncomfortable. Rip to all of them
Keep thinking that their body parts rained down into Titanic so they are buried there forever just like the passengers. Morbid indeed. Freaked out by that whole thing going for endless walks to enjoy flowers birds and sunshine trying to shake off that vision of entrapment in the dark cold depths with no way out...
There aren’t any bodies down there.
@@GoBlueGirl78 How can you possibly know that?
@@bearcat1283 Marine life has decomposed the bodies over the years. If you see pics of the Titanic where there are shoes together on the bottom, that’s where a body fell when the ship sank. The organic & mineral matter are gone, leaving only the shoes - it’s quite eerie.
@@GoBlueGirl78 Maybe that's what the science says but I'm sure they're still there, still there. Forever and ever and ever...And now some new just joined them to stay forever and ever...
@@bearcat1283 No, they’re not there either. A catastrophic, rapid implosion would crush the bodies of the 5 passengers. It’s unlikely there would be any pieces larger than a thimble left. Marine life would also decompose any remains.
that was fast
Father and Son so sad. Rest In Peace.
