We have too much faith in technology. Nature rules in the end. So sorry for how awful it is dying like that, especially for the boy who trusted that he’d be safe.
That boy is 19 years old. He is essentially an adult. Everyone who got aboard would have understood exactly what kind of dangers they were putting themselves into. However, the CEO of OceanGate should be held 100% responsible for his obvious lack of regard for the safety of those inside his creation. Titan is simply not built to a degree of sufficiency for a dive like this, and the CEO was perfectly aware: "the Passenger Vessel Safety Act of 1993 needlessly prioritized passenger safety over commercial innovation."
Just to give you an idea of how it is to search deep underwater, it took decades to find the actual Titanic until they found it in 1985, 73 years later...
I won't even go on a cruise trip because of the Titanic let alone get inside one of these bubble gum machines and go 13,000 feet below you got to be out of your damn mind
I looked at how that "sub" was put together, and it is borderline frightening. Those metal frames looked like they've been purchased at the local hardware store! Most concerning to me were the exposed wiring and electronics at the back of this thing. I was sure that all electronics were inside the hull, not outside, but they are outside! Wiring harnesses just hanging out and circuit boards enclosed in what looked like some basic plexiglass boxes with removable panels. I think I may have spotted a zip tie or two. All this critical hardware was repeatedly exposed to the crushing pressure cycles and corrosive sea water. Throw in some 12Volt Optima batteries, a Bluetooth PlayStation controller and a few monitors and you've got yourself a "submarine!" This is utter insanity! I wouldn't submerge this thing deeper than 10 ft. On top of all this, the single hatch can only be opened from the outside.
How can these people make such a shotty vessel get payed thousands upon thousands of dollars have no real regulations have this happen and not be in jail the family's of the people stuck in that thing should be up that ocean gates butt
Apparently some of the parts were bought off Amazon. I saw some guy talking about when they build proper subs they track every single bolt from the beginning of its manufacture to know that its sound.
Former passengers have stated that for every five dive attempts, they usually only find the Titanic once or twice -- sometimes not at all. Odds are you couldn't find the Titanic, a huge object, let alone this thing; not visually anyway. One thing is certain, this thing is experimental, unique design and materials, and it should have been subjected to serious pressure tests in a lab every so many dives. The front of this is manually bolted down; and I mean manually. You would think they would at least use some kind of automated device that insured the bolts were tightened to correct pressure. Men do this one at a time with specialized wrenches. I would never get on something like that.
They should be able to find it easily with the technology that we have now!!! We know exactly where it's at if they couldn't find it, it's because they don't have the right kind of equipment!!!
Their inspector had found issues with its construction long before this voyage; however, they fired him.. It might have broken apart.. Walls not thick enough to withstand the pressure this time around.
10 possible reasons what happened to the OceanGate submersible: 1. **Mechanical failure.** This is the most likely cause of the submersible's disappearance. The submersible is a complex piece of machinery, and there is always the possibility of a mechanical failure. This could have been caused by a faulty component, a manufacturing defect, or even operator error. 2. **Collision with debris.** The area where the submersible was operating is known to be littered with debris from the Titanic wreck. It is possible that the submersible collided with a piece of debris, causing it to sink. 3. **Strong currents.** The area where the submersible was operating is also known for strong currents. It is possible that the submersible was caught in a current and dragged away from the surface. 4. **Battery failure.** The submersible's batteries provide power for its propulsion, life support, and communications systems. If the batteries failed, the submersible would have been unable to surface. 5. **Oxygen depletion.** The submersible has a limited supply of oxygen. If the oxygen supply was depleted, the occupants of the submersible would have succumbed to asphyxiation. 6. **Fire.** A fire on board the submersible could have caused it to sink. Fires can be difficult to extinguish in confined spaces, and they can quickly spread. 7. **Hydrostatic pressure.** The water pressure at the depth of the Titanic's sinking is very high. If the submersible's hull was damaged, it could have imploded under the pressure, causing it to sink. 8. **Human error.** It is always possible that human error played a role in the submersible's disappearance. The operators of the submersible could have made a mistake, or they could have been overcome by the stress of the situation. 9. **Sabotage.** It is also possible that the submersible was sabotaged. This is a remote possibility, but it is worth considering. 10. **Unknown cause.** It is also possible that the submersible's disappearance is due to some unknown cause. This could be something that we have not yet considered, or it could be something that we will never know. These are just 10 of the possible reasons what happened to the OceanGate submersible. The truth is, we may never know for sure what happened. However, the search and rescue effort is continuing, and we will hopefully get some answers soon.

Isn't it ironic that 111 years later, the Titanic may reveal another safety and unregulated industry? When the ship sank it didn't have enough lifeboats due to lack of regulations. After all these years we haven't learned all the lessons of the disaster.
Some people have. This arrogant developer was told this craft was unsafe by three boards of 24 people each. So him and people with too much money are who haven’t learned any lessons.
If it didn't 'belong' to a country, didn't pass any sort of known assessment, and is being controlled by a gaming controller, why was this even okay for anyone to really board, let alone people with too much money on their hands?
Would you rather be alive and go to jail for murder if rescued or die altogether. I feel the passengers would be the ones panicking rather than the other guys
Their chances of survival are slim to none. It was said that Titan had issues in its construction, which were kept hidden. One inspector was fired for pointing this out. It might have broken apart..
Two things I would never consider doing in my lifetime. 1. Jump out of a perfectly good airplane, and 2. I wouldn’t go down in that submersible if you paid me $250,000.00‼️
I can't even imagine how scared they are. Being freezing cold at the bottom of the pitch black ocean is terrifying. 5 people in a small space , probably no food and no bathroom. I'm scared of the ocean and being at the bottom of it in the dark with strange things swimming around is scary. I hope they are found!
Yeah. Saw that over an hour ago. The story is finally catching up. They also saw something white, but left that to pursue the banging. Hopefully, they'll investigate both. And, hopefully, we'll hear some good news soon. 🙏
They have been hearing noises since Monday. I would say the only reason they didn’t find it is because they haven’t sent anything down to find it they can’t find it without going down there.
@@andrade2129 Exactly, they could be floating on the water right now but running out of oxygen. At minimum, the sub should have an emergency exit from the inside. I wouldn't accept being locked in my car for a 30 minute drive.
Imagine taking a 1 hr 45 min journey 10K ft below the surface, making an emergency return to the surface after another 1 hr 45 min after losing communication, then dying of oxygen deprivation sitting with your head 1 ft above water looking out of the glass dome with no survival kit, no flare gun, no radio, no way at all to communicate with the outside world, and a hatch that opens the wrong way.
They knew the risks and what could happen. I feel awful for all of them but especially the 19 year old who probably didn't have enough life experience to truly weigh up the risk. I think when you are incredibly obscenely wealthy thrre is a risk that you can lose touch with reality and think you’re invincible. The level of wealth and success they are used to has skewed their judgment. That's the rich man syndrome. I personally assume failure. My Glass is always half empty. That's why I woukd be protected against making such an insane decisions like going to the wreck of the titanic with a PlayStation controller as a navigation tool.
yup the selfless parasitic rich 250k on a PlayStation. The Irony is the pilot only took the job because he is in debt and it was his only way out, another example of rich people and their association with slave labor...
Sympathies with their families. Nevertheless, who granted permission for the wreck to be used for thrills and profit ? This is a gravesite and should be respected.
It’s sad on a human level. But billionaires playing with dangerous toys and reaping the consequences of that isn’t exactly a tear-jerker for me. I only really feel for the son that was brought by his father.

Just to inform The weather condition were not optimal and in fact the five was cancel due to currents and bad conditions. So in the original comment or defense the current crazily push it of course or damaged it And as it says in the video the submersible cannot move at all so they are dropped into location and have to have pinpointed dropped Meaning they were dropped and most likely didn’t even make it to the titanic and went off into wrong location and into bad currents Anyway to the first replied in this thread if you are going to comment without watching the video please don’t start arguments when you obviously don’t know wtf you are talking about
These people knew the risk and signed there lives away i wouldnt wish this on my worst enemy and really hope they are saved prayers to these people and there families
Not crushed. Any leak would not just be a drip but would be propelled in relentlessly by the pressure. It would go on until the water had squeezed the air until the sub was filled. The pressure at the bottom is 380 bar so the bubble of air would equalize when the air was 1/380 = 0.2% of the original volume. Even if the leak was tiny and dripped it would continue till it filled the chamber. When air pressure goes up, nitrogen becomes soluble and enters the bloodstream. That's why deep diving uses helium and oxygen. Also, oxygen gets poisonous when pressurized. Using the mix in ordinary air the pressure at 500 feet of seawater will kill a human with hyperoxia in 2 hours. That's the point where the freezing survivor(s) would be breathing the air bubble at the top 7% of the chamber.
For real though. Some places are not made for humans to go, but there’s always people that are determined to push the limits. Look how many people die from climbing Mount Everest each year.
I wouldn’t risk my life for this up close to see the Titanic , I watched James Cameron’s Titanic documentary and that’s good enough for me !! and that depth , I’d get cluster phobic and I really hope they are found it’s not worth the money to go this far 😢

We have no business exploiting this tragic part of our history and commercializing trips down to the very wreck. It is so gross! I just saw a video about 2 guys(who were extremely experienced with submersibles) be very close to losing their lives working with pipes underwater. They had 12 minutes left of oxygen when they were finally able to rescue them and retrieve the submersible, after many failed attempts in 72 hrs. I cant feel bad for somebody who would want to and pay for doing this. How do you trust anyone with your very life to do this ??? Too negative. Just a bad idea in the 1st place. Stupid !!! They had no business going there in the first place.
@@adambeers06 Lol nowhere near the lack of safety of this. Planes are actually held to regulations and constant checks by professionals, whereas the owner of this company neglected to do so purposely. Now when Certified Pilots fly a plane meant for 15,000 ft to the atmosphere with a Playstation controller we can compare them.
When I found out they only charged 200k for the trip, I was stocked. I expected them to be charging a million just because of the dangers and complications that can arise, I'd expect the amount to be much higher. Apparently the lower price explains why this little cheap submersible has almost zero safety precautions, no backup plans in case of emergency, no accreditation, no ability to even retrieve the damn thing if it went down and almost no ability to steer, or ballast. What's even more crazy about all of this is, the people that are going to pay to go down and take this kind of trip WOULD'VE paid a million a seat. With that money there should have been every safety precautions imaginable, ability to retrieve the damn thing, proper backup plans and capabilities for IF a problem arose, not to mention ensuring the damn thing is worthy of going to these depths. I don't know how bad I feel for those that willingly do stuff like this, my personal opinion is LEAVE IT FKNG BE and let the real experts document it.
With such a dangerous trip why would they not have 2 subs go down on tour? so, if one is in trouble the other could hook up a cable to it and bring the cable up to the mother ship so it could pull them up? 😞
Right. Plus, no bathroom and it is airtight. Hunger, fatigue, darkness, despair, cold, cant stand up, and what if it is stuck vertically, all 5 would be on top of each other at the small end of the little sub.
In 1898, “The Wreck of the Titan” was written by Morgan Robertson. It was about a ship that had same problems as Titanic. His ship was named the “Titan”. It is amazing how much like Titanic the Titan was. I thought it odd that they named their submersible the Titan. A little spooky!
I mean I guess if you have the mind of a 6 year old? Tf it’s a sketchy ass submersible 💀 there’s nothing coincidental about the company or the sub or the area or the year or anything you retard want to link it to.
The fact that people would want to go and see an old ship thousands of feet below the surface, that sunk 100 years ago, is beyond my comprehension.... That a father would take his son in such unpredictable situation, is also beyond my comprehension. Unfortunately these lives won't be recovered alive, if recovered at all. The depth won't allow it.
Now the government has to get involved...fines will follow...after this incident someone building something like this privately and operating it won't be allowed without REGULATIONS!!!!!
I know that if I had that kind of money I definitely wouldn't use it to turn myself into a can of tuna! Like there isn't a million different things to blow one's money on the surface of the planet?
Freezing is the least of there problems. At 3,800 meters below the Titanic's wreckage, the water pressure is about 400 atmospheres (6,000 PSI) - as much as 35 elephants on your shoulders.
That pressure is not a problem if you are inside a functional chamber built to resist that pressure. Oxygen, CO2, and heat are indeed problems, however.
They’ll be crushed into pulp and if they float to the water surface they will be deformed inside out due to rapid compression it’ll be a sight barely recognisable as human
I was shocked to see all the exposed wiring and electronics at the back of the submersible. All those wires and boxes were located in the fin. You can clearly see a counter weight (the white "bricks"), to balance out the total weight of the people. Otherwise it would just tip over. That part of the fin is not within the carbon-fibre structure, and is simply sealed off by (metal?) paneling. Many wires were simply strapped to the structure via what looks like regular plastic zip ties. Unreal. There is no way all these crucial parts in the fin can withstand that amount of pressure. Give it a couple of cycles and all that material simply disintegrates. This all screams unprofessionalism. At a very high cost.
The Titan Submersible looks very cheaply made and to pay £250,000 to go and risk your life like that as it's very dangerous down at the wreck site and a man took his 19-year-old son with him, how stupid? This is not a tourist attraction!! 1500 people lost their lives the night Titanic sank, so leave well alone! it's a grave site!! I think there's a possibility that because of the strong currents down there, the sub could have been sucked into the wreckage and they are trapped. I would like to know what actually happened though as anything could have happened. Plus, it's extremely freezing down there!! I think they could be out of oxygen by now with it being Thursday now and it's almost 16:15
Waivers doesn’t excuse negligence. Just because you assume the risk of one particular incident, dosen’t mean you assumed to all risk. Huge lawsuit on its way no matter what happens.
Were the tourists briefed of the potential risks and dangers and that this submersible is experimental and not like a submarine and warned of the potential of not being able to be located or rescued in time by anyone in case things go wrong like this incident? 🤔
Can we all agree this should NEVER happen. If they didn’t implode they may be sitting at the bottom with the understanding the likelihood of being rescued is unlikely. Sad. Shut it down after this MR MONEY MAN! SMH.
Well, M. MONEY MAN is on board as well... Even if they were found alive (and chances are they won't), this incident alone is the death of the company for sure.
Unfortunately, these are international waters. No one can actually stop someone from doing this. Even if a country outlaws the commercialisation of it, they will just operate in a country that doesn’t like many other industries.
@@Shadedskies there is another money man other than CEO onboard. Fortunate for him he is on land. Elon I’m sure rings a bell. It’s all about money. The second I see death the first time let alone 3 times before signing my life away and going down, it would be a no thank you. This vessel had previous issues. Sad if they are alive knowing chances for rescue at this point are slim. Sadly it will be a recovery if they didn’t implode. My belief is they are entangled stuck, drifting, or sitting on the sea floor praying for a miracle if they didn’t already freeze and or lose oxygen.
@@lisamarie8646 All we know so far is that they were using Elon Musk's Starlink for their internet/communications. I'm no Elon Musk fan but that does not make him a money man in the company. This likely soon-to-be tragedy is the result of many poor decisions (using Musk's Starlink could be one of them) made by the amateur CEO himself, his team and sadly, the "tourists". We have yet to find out what went wrong (maybe never will) but like you said, this vessel had previous issues so it could be ANYTHING.
Also what I’ve heard no one could be at blame besides the passengers because they signed a possible death clause that was on the contract and it was repeated at least 3 times; That alone would change my mind. This is so sad.
When i think how much money they paid for this dangerous and senseless adventure, I wonder if they would not be happier and accomplished if they have used the money to help someone or animals in need. Crazy world!
A cable is solid metal. It is incompressible, like any crystalline solid. It will 'withstand" whatever pressure. Think about it: there are many cables on the outside of that submarine. Electricity supply and communications should be doable. 3mi is not that long of a cable. Valves for oxygen would be hard, though. Also, the drag caused by the cable would be a huge problem, it would behave like an unwanted sail.
Its weird how the exceptionally wealthy are often attracted to high risk adventures, almost like they need to find a rush that the rest of us get when we have all of our bills in order
I’m appreciative of the people who are actually humans and don’t judge others and wanna show love and prayers to these people family and friends in this situation ..like this would be the most terrifying thing to even dream about
I understand why people are having a lack of empathy for these people. They ignored the clear red flags that the submersible was incredibly unreliable. Billionaires' ignorance isn't really something that garners empathy. I really only feel for the 19 yr old on board.
The carbon fiber pressure hull glued to a titanium ring with a glass porthole I believe. Different materials have different properties under pressure and temperatures. Didn't appear to have environmental systems that could be used in case of fire or toxic atmosphere. Remember Apollo 1? Operated by a remote controller. Wireless? Bluetooth? Extra batteries? Backup systems? One test to just below 3000 feet with 1 crewmember? Test depth vs design depth? Who were the design team? Saddened me to know.
I pray that these men can be located and rescued🙏 but I truly donot see why these people needed to have explored this wreckage. This was unecessary in every way.
Honestly the odds of finding them are slim to none. Sadly If the coast guard already searched 10,000 square miles. I don’t have high hopes for this rescue… Just thinking about how long one single mile is…
Most people are just hearing for the first time about this company and sub since it tragically went missing. Then to discover it operates with little to no regulation or oversight from a Canadian port. Yet billionaires with endless resources to investigate the safety of this craft willingly board and are sealed in is bizarre. A joint Canadian/US investigation needs to take place immediately.
Sure thats what happened what we are seeing on the news is keeping hope alive for the families thats all it is they have to able to say they tried to save them trust me they know their gone the sub had 7 safety measures in case of a power failure one of them were balloons that would deploy and bring them to the surface but all 7 measures failed plus no pinging and no text for 2 days all 7 would fail only if they were hooked to something that imploded even if the knew where they were theres no way to rescue them we have nothing to help them
He said he thinks that's most likely on his channel but sonar picked up some sounds, there may be some hope. That was just confirmed by the US Coast Guard an hour ago.
@@221b-l3tmy theory is they are still alive right now until the oxygen runs out and they are trying to make banging sounds underwater in hopes sonar picks it up and they get rescued. Sadly time is running out on the oxygen though
@@xblacKx24 According to some sources sounds where last heard Tuesday local. Also the 96 h where never actually tested with 5 people it an estimate or best guess.
leave that ship alone people have died on that ship went down with it there must be respect for those who died it's a underwater cemetery, stop visiting it and stop making it a tourist trap its so disrespectful leave the ship alone. You have seen it we know were it is now go away. RIP to everyone on the Titanic
When I first saw the controller, all the alarm bells began ringing in my head. I personally have a better control setup for my flight simulator on my PC and they have some cheap POS controller to control an ACTUAL SUBMERSIBLE rated to go down to 12000ft and charge $250K a head.... wow EDIT: Found out the controller was the Logitech F710 worth around $50. It might not have been what caused the disaster but all this screams corporate negligence/greed. What else did they cheap out on?
I agree with others that say ... Leave it alone. Leave it be. Its a gravesite and deserves that respect. Theres many places on this planet where one can seek their thrills. This is not one of them.
There were 7 safety measures that were on the sub it even had baloons that would deploy even if the crew were knocked out to take them to the surface the fact that all 7 failed can only meen one thing it imploded they were over 10k feet down when the signal was lost being that deep theres no chance
I dont see why people would risk their lives to go down there to look out a small window, when you could just use a robotic sub and view the recordings safely on land
Amazing 100 year's later and the Titanic is still claiming lives. People need to leave that grave yard alone.
Right? Why do you go and explore a graveyard that's already been studied over and over again.
The ocean is the culprit
I agree!
I think it is not the titanic that claimed lives , but the ignorance of man… as well for this story too… ironically

10 possible reasons what happened to the OceanGate submersible:
1. **Mechanical failure.** This is the most likely cause of the submersible's disappearance. The submersible is a complex piece of machinery, and there is always the possibility of a mechanical failure. This could have been caused by a faulty component, a manufacturing defect, or even operator error.
2. **Collision with debris.** The area where the submersible was operating is known to be littered with debris from the Titanic wreck. It is possible that the submersible collided with a piece of debris, causing it to sink.
3. **Strong currents.** The area where the submersible was operating is also known for strong currents. It is possible that the submersible was caught in a current and dragged away from the surface.
4. **Battery failure.** The submersible's batteries provide power for its propulsion, life support, and communications systems. If the batteries failed, the submersible would have been unable to surface.
5. **Oxygen depletion.** The submersible has a limited supply of oxygen. If the oxygen supply was depleted, the occupants of the submersible would have succumbed to asphyxiation.
6. **Fire.** A fire on board the submersible could have caused it to sink. Fires can be difficult to extinguish in confined spaces, and they can quickly spread.
7. **Hydrostatic pressure.** The water pressure at the depth of the Titanic's sinking is very high. If the submersible's hull was damaged, it could have imploded under the pressure, causing it to sink.
8. **Human error.** It is always possible that human error played a role in the submersible's disappearance. The operators of the submersible could have made a mistake, or they could have been overcome by the stress of the situation.
9. **Sabotage.** It is also possible that the submersible was sabotaged. This is a remote possibility, but it is worth considering.
10. **Unknown cause.** It is also possible that the submersible's disappearance is due to some unknown cause. This could be something that we have not yet considered, or it could be something that we will never know.
These are just 10 of the possible reasons what happened to the OceanGate submersible. The truth is, we may never know for sure what happened. However, the search and rescue effort is continuing, and we will hopefully get some answers soon.
Poor souls on that lost sub. Can't imagine what they have been or are going through. 😢

Isn't it ironic that 111 years later, the Titanic may reveal another safety and unregulated industry? When the ship sank it didn't have enough lifeboats due to lack of regulations. After all these years we haven't learned all the lessons of the disaster.
Some people have. This arrogant developer was told this craft was unsafe by three boards of 24 people each. So him and people with too much money are who haven’t learned any lessons.
There were regulations. The British Board of Trade neglected to update them.
No rescue plan, no escape means, historically poor comms, tight space, limited O2, little food and water, filthy rich tourists...what could go wrong?
and you wanna know what, a similar case will happen again in the future, maybe in the ocean again, maybe on space, "we" never learn.

Just to inform
The weather condition were not optimal and in fact the five was cancel due to currents and bad conditions.
So in the original comment or defense the current crazily push it of course or damaged it
And as it says in the video the submersible cannot move at all so they are dropped into location and have to have pinpointed dropped
Meaning they were dropped and most likely didn’t even make it to the titanic and went off into wrong location and into bad currents

In my opinion, that submersible was crushed under the pressure of the ocean, and long before any oxygen, heat, or communication would have run out.
Not crushed. Any leak would not just be a drip but would be propelled in relentlessly by the pressure. It would go on until the water had squeezed the air until the sub was filled. The pressure at the bottom is 380 bar so the bubble of air would equalize when the air was 1/380 = 0.2% of the original volume. Even if the leak was tiny and dripped it would continue till it filled the chamber. When air pressure goes up, nitrogen becomes soluble and enters the bloodstream. That's why deep diving uses helium and oxygen. Also, oxygen gets poisonous when pressurized. Using the mix in ordinary air the pressure at 500 feet of seawater will kill a human with hyperoxia in 2 hours. That's the point where the freezing survivor(s) would be breathing the air bubble at the top 7% of the chamber.
@dhm7815 interesting. However, in that case, they would have died of hypothermia within minutes as the water temp is approx 0 deg.
I agree, but carbon fiber is not ductile, so it wouldn't just crush, it would splinter apart, inward.
Sadly, that’s the best case scenario. The terror would be too much.
They are hearing banging now. Honestly I’d much rather be crushed with no pain than stuck in there!!
You know what my gut tells me, to stay on land.

@@adambeers06 Lol nowhere near the lack of safety of this. Planes are actually held to regulations and constant checks by professionals, whereas the owner of this company neglected to do so purposely. Now when Certified Pilots fly a plane meant for 15,000 ft to the atmosphere with a Playstation controller we can compare them.
When I found out they only charged 200k for the trip, I was stocked. I expected them to be charging a million just because of the dangers and complications that can arise, I'd expect the amount to be much higher. Apparently the lower price explains why this little cheap submersible has almost zero safety precautions, no backup plans in case of emergency, no accreditation, no ability to even retrieve the damn thing if it went down and almost no ability to steer, or ballast. What's even more crazy about all of this is, the people that are going to pay to go down and take this kind of trip WOULD'VE paid a million a seat. With that money there should have been every safety precautions imaginable, ability to retrieve the damn thing, proper backup plans and capabilities for IF a problem arose, not to mention ensuring the damn thing is worthy of going to these depths. I don't know how bad I feel for those that willingly do stuff like this, my personal opinion is LEAVE IT FKNG BE and let the real experts document it.
This is really sad 😞
meh
With such a dangerous trip why would they not have 2 subs go down on tour? so, if one is in trouble the other could hook up a cable to it and bring the cable up to the mother ship so it could pull them up? 😞
Put five strangers together in a little area, full-blown panic could you imagine?
And the guy who is responsible is there too. There is a non zero chance Mr. Rush died first.
Right. Plus, no bathroom and it is airtight. Hunger, fatigue, darkness, despair, cold, cant stand up, and what if it is stuck vertically, all 5 would be on top of each other at the small end of the little sub.

In 1898, “The Wreck of the Titan” was written by Morgan Robertson. It was about a ship that had same problems as Titanic. His ship was named the “Titan”. It is amazing how much like Titanic the Titan was. I thought it odd that they named their submersible the Titan. A little spooky!

I was shocked to see all the exposed wiring and electronics at the back of the submersible. All those wires and boxes were located in the fin. You can clearly see a counter weight (the white "bricks"), to balance out the total weight of the people. Otherwise it would just tip over. That part of the fin is not within the carbon-fibre structure, and is simply sealed off by (metal?) paneling. Many wires were simply strapped to the structure via what looks like regular plastic zip ties. Unreal. There is no way all these crucial parts in the fin can withstand that amount of pressure. Give it a couple of cycles and all that material simply disintegrates.
This all screams unprofessionalism. At a very high cost.
These people all should have undergone psychiatric evals first..especially the CEO. He's either suicidal or delusional.
The Titan Submersible looks very cheaply made and to pay £250,000 to go and risk your life like that as it's very dangerous down at the wreck site and a man took his 19-year-old son with him, how stupid? This is not a tourist attraction!! 1500 people lost their lives the night Titanic sank, so leave well alone! it's a grave site!! I think there's a possibility that because of the strong currents down there, the sub could have been sucked into the wreckage and they are trapped.

Makes me wonder why a cable isn't attached to this submersible.
you'd need a 3 mile long cable built thick enough to withstand 12,000 psi of pressure. it would probably big thicker than your home
Not so! The Titanic was discovered using Argo, a towed submersible whose tether was also used for communications.
A cable is solid metal. It is incompressible, like any crystalline solid. It will 'withstand" whatever pressure.
Think about it: there are many cables on the outside of that submarine.
Electricity supply and communications should be doable. 3mi is not that long of a cable. Valves for oxygen would be hard, though. Also, the drag caused by the cable would be a huge problem, it would behave like an unwanted sail.
@TyaxComp obviously it wouldn’t be just one cable. It’ll be multiple cables

I pray they are found and returned home alive. God be with them and those searching for them.
Hahaha do you think Santa is real too? Grow up kid
Honestly the odds of finding them are slim to none. Sadly
If the coast guard already searched 10,000 square miles. I don’t have high hopes for this rescue… Just thinking about how long one single mile is…
They almost has 24 hours so i think they gone
@@geeloco1600You probably think a man can become a woman 😂
@@Antimonious why do you think that? Because I don’t believe in a floating man In the sky? What are you talking about
Sadly, You can’t tell a person with that kind of wealth that an opportunity such as this is a “bad idea””
All you can do now is pray 🙏🏼
For those down there.
Just the fact that that thing is controlled with a Playstation controller should have been the first red flag, to say the least...
Most people are just hearing for the first time about this company and sub since it tragically went missing. Then to discover it operates with little to no regulation or oversight from a Canadian port. Yet billionaires with endless resources to investigate the safety of this craft willingly board and are sealed in is bizarre. A joint Canadian/US investigation needs to take place immediately.
Investigations of why wealthy people control the world ?

I can't believe someone is crazy enough to attempt something like this
If he was actually an "expert," he'd just admit that they imploded at 10,000 feet and died instantly. Because, you know, that's what happened.
Sure thats what happened what we are seeing on the news is keeping hope alive for the families thats all it is they have to able to say they tried to save them trust me they know their gone the sub had 7 safety measures in case of a power failure one of them were balloons that would deploy and bring them to the surface but all 7 measures failed plus no pinging and no text for 2 days all 7 would fail only if they were hooked to something that imploded even if the knew where they were theres no way to rescue them we have nothing to help them
He said he thinks that's most likely on his channel but sonar picked up some sounds, there may be some hope. That was just confirmed by the US Coast Guard an hour ago.
No one knows what happened.
@@221b-l3tmy theory is they are still alive right now until the oxygen runs out and they are trying to make banging sounds underwater in hopes sonar picks it up and they get rescued. Sadly time is running out on the oxygen though
@@xblacKx24 According to some sources sounds where last heard Tuesday local. Also the 96 h where never actually tested with 5 people it an estimate or best guess.
Amazing that Titanic has a strong relationship with the wealthy. It feeds on wealthy people.
Sympathy to the Families , RIP
They are not deceased yet. Jeesh.
@@tourdedogue4952there dead buddy
@@angeloromero1999 I thought the time was until Thurs. Great, if they last that long with what they're dealing with. Horrible way to die.
Yeah they’re gone for sure
Inheritance time
leave that ship alone people have died on that ship went down with it there must be respect for those who died it's a underwater cemetery, stop visiting it and stop making it a tourist trap its so disrespectful leave the ship alone. You have seen it we know were it is now go away. RIP to everyone on the Titanic
When I first saw the controller, all the alarm bells began ringing in my head. I personally have a better control setup for my flight simulator on my PC and they have some cheap POS controller to control an ACTUAL SUBMERSIBLE rated to go down to 12000ft and charge $250K a head.... wow
EDIT: Found out the controller was the Logitech F710 worth around $50.
It might not have been what caused the disaster but all this screams corporate negligence/greed. What else did they cheap out on?
I agree with others that say ... Leave it alone. Leave it be. Its a gravesite and deserves that respect. Theres many places on this planet where one can seek their thrills. This is not one of them.
Not sacred
There were 7 safety measures that were on the sub it even had baloons that would deploy even if the crew were knocked out to take them to the surface the fact that all 7 failed can only meen one thing it imploded they were over 10k feet down when the signal was lost being that deep theres no chance
Agree.
I dont see why people would risk their lives to go down there to look out a small window, when you could just use a robotic sub and view the recordings safely on land
