- As the search continues for the submersible carrying five people to the wreckage of the Titanic, family and friends are holding out hope for a safe recovery of the vessel known as Titan.
Chris Brown, a modern-day explorer and multi-millionaire, pulled out of the trip at the last minute due to safety concerns.
He joined LiveNOW from FOX's Josh Breslow to talk about that decision.
Brown is a friend of Hamish Harding, one of five people onboard the missing submersible. The other passengers have been identified as Paul-Henry Nargeolet, Stockton Rush, Shahzada Dawood and Sulaiman Dawood.

Wow, someone with enough money to go on the trip but was rational and realized this risk wasn't worth any amount of money.
I think most rich people don’t go kill themselves in submarines.
5 rich fools.
The things he was questioning were very, very basic concerns. I thought they were going to be more sophisticated. Ballasts made out of construction piping? Sounds like something made for a lake. Geezus man :(
Что случилось?
The way that I will go down in the ocean is aboard a Trident nuclear Navy Submarine.
Good for him for being a critical thinker, putting safety first.
This is the best comment, put safety first above everything. Unfortunately people are greedy for money and don't take the safety measures to ensure things are in working order. I feel so sorry for this whole situation. We need a miracle. I feel for the families of their loved ones being deep down in the ocean. It's just heartbreaking. Smh
Rich people have more money than common sense , who uses an Xbox controller on a dangerous mission 2 miles underwater where water pressure is 1500x the pressure of your car tires
@@jaylucas8352 people keep harping on the fact that they pilot the sub with a game controller, meanwhile the US Military has been bombing civilians using Xbox game pads for like 6 years now. Using a game controller isn’t really the problem, it was the sub itself and the greedy CEO piloting it. That being said they did use a Logitech controller which will def be worse than an Xbox gamepad
@@jaylucas8352 Xbox controller, home depot motors, Amazon batteries etc deathtrap built from DIY store parts. What sensible person would willingly step inside such a vessel?
He made a wise choice...Thank God.
What bothers me as a mother who has lost both of her children is that the 19 y.o. on board didn't even get a chance to live his full life. I feel sorry for his mother--losing both her husband and her son---and the rest of his family.
When I was a little girl our neighbor was a sweet couple with two kids, both young adults. One summer day the dad and those two adult sons went boating on the Wisconsin river, just an everyday thing people do when you live on or near the it. They had an accident and they all died.
Boom!
All three of the dead.
I could never look at that woman again without discomfort and pity. She lived at least another 30 years without her lovely men. Ugh. It makes me want to cry just telling you about it!
I'm so sorry for your loss...I agree with you. The most haunting part of this has been the father with his son on the sub. What must have gone through his mind when he realized what he's brought his child into..the despair, the guilt, the horror.
Very very painful. It is hitting me hard too. I have two sons, and my youngest is 19. I cannot imagine her pain. I keep cycling through anger and back to sympathy.
@@JenniferMoleski🥲❤️🙏
As an anxious mama bear I would have done anything to stop my child. Even pretending to commit suicide. At this point I don't care.
This man did his homework! He provided so much insight!
A wise man. And alive.
The other guys have unfortunately done the "If it was that dangerous he wouldn't be coming himself, we will be alright!" calculation.
This guy has assesed the risk for himself only, made up his own mind, and hes alive.
That was exactly my thought. So true.
With thinking like this it’s hard to inspire people…..old white man.
@@cocksure8430 The more I learn about this the more the CEO seems like a know it all egomaniac who fired any one who told him things he didn't want to hear. I've no doubt he believed his own BS it's a shame he was able to convince the others.
@@bobbyrayofthefamilysmith24they’re all egomaniacs and sociopaths. To think people believe we live in a meritocracy is hilarious. Wealthy people tend to be very far removed from reality and aren’t as intelligent as they think they are.
He didn't go because he's smart and has common sense.
Wise,I think the others were smart but not wise.
If I'm going to the bottom of the ocean or into space and the ship is controlled by an Xbox controller I'm straight up chickening out.
Is there another kind!
It's a God thing . Not his time to meet his maker.
The 19 year old had an inclination too 😢
This was very restrained and tactful. Thank you for informing but not exploiting a tense and sad situation.
He's indeed a wise and collected man.
This gentleman acted with great intelligence, due dilligence and extreme caution. The 'Titan' was a largely untested and highly experimental design headed for one of the most dangerous locations on the planet. (It's likely that the carbon-fibre hull, possibly compromised from previous dives, failed, leading to an instantaneous catastrophic implosion.) The only positive for the crews family members is that those men would have died in a millisecond, they'd have been unaware of their own passing. The alternative, that of being alive but entombed within a dark powerless vessel at the bottom of the deep, knowing that, in fact, there was no possible hope of rescue, is the stuff of nightmares. xx SF
If it imploded would there be any parts floating around? Or did the sub turn to dust?
Remember : The wisdom of man is foolishness to God. Because wisdom is from God
Even if they ran out of oxygen you pass out from c02 inhalation it’s fairly painless.
Hope that they did die instantaniously and were unaware....
@@BettyWhite2171yes there would be wreckage, they just found some three hours ago. However the wreckage would be scattered and remains are unlikely
His response to why he backed out … is Diamond 💎
“What was I thinking”? I was thinking man I’m sure glad I’m not in that Coca Cola can headed for the freezer of the ocean with no heating system. Sheesh
He was smart enough and had common sense to back out. He saved his own life😊
God has a purpose for him, condolences to all the families who lost their love ones.
❤
@@designimage1REALLY? Wanna know that purpose 😂😂
Now we know why they hired young people as support staff. Older, more experienced people would have shut it down.
one tried to and they sued and fired him.
Just to think, such things are now being enacted across many Western nations through affirmative action/positive discrimination and at all different sectors and positions. The future looks set to be a rollercoaster of systemic failures.
Exactly 😂 had zero to do with “diversity” it was about exploiting a bunch of “yes men”

Good morning 🌞 🌹may this day come with all the love your heart can hold and bring you every success you desire may each of your footsteps bring joy
That's a man who knows how to evaluate risk/rewards. Good for him
The fact that he doesn't just come out and say he didn't go because it was stupid is a big sign that alot of people have missed that he cannot get himself to believe that his friend and the other people are dead, and there is a lot of grief to process.
So many people will easily miss that
I didn't get that at all. I think he refrained from giving his honest opinion bc friends and family of the victims still had hope, so he didn't want to upset anyone. James Cameron came out and said he even knew what happened, but didn't speak out for the family sake at the time. The whole thing is so saddening.
I like this guy. So much better than 99% of the socalled experts being interviewed and respectful to the relatives.
Yes, he's not bad, but the truly respectful people aren't on TV right now.
On a positive note maybe this will teach the young risk takers of the world that there are dangerous things. Kids nowadays just stare at screens

What bothers me the most is that they weren’t following safety measures. If I’m on a boat that went through every safety check in the world then okay! 👍, but this vessel 🚢 had no safety checks, failed inspection, can’t be opened from the inside, controlled by a wireless 🎮 video game controller, and piloted by a guy that didn’t want veterans working on it. So many corners were cut!
the controller interface was the least unsafe part of this
Go woke, go sitting on the seabed.
Boring. And like every other clone, you will back none of your claims with any evidence.
@@Cryaboutmyhandle oh no. Are you saying they used carbon fiber that had been touched by a gay person?
The absolute horror.
Unbelievable truely unbelievable!!!!
Self preservation is a wonderful thing. I'm so glad you are still here for your family. My deepest sympathy for the Families that lost loved ones.
Cowards live long
Wow what a smart man! I bet he’s relieved he made the right decision and didn’t get on that sub. Very tragic. RIP to everyone on board.
Speaking as a former U.S. Navy submariner, the water pressure upon the hull is beyond substantial. I was a crewmember of a 688 Class nuclear fast attack sub. When a new sub departs for its first sea trial its hull is smooth but when it returns to port for the first time, you can count the ribs in the hull. In addition, every system on a U.S. Navy sub has multiple backups and each hull penetration has a highly tested backup valve in the event the highly-tested hull valve fails. CO2 scrubbers remove carbon dioxide from the air while O2 generators produce oxygen...and the levels of these and other gases are closely monitored and the monitors themselves have backups. In addition, each of the crew is trained to perform a free ascent from a submarine to the surface when the sub is disabled at a shallow enough depth. My hope is that the operators of these tourist subs will be scrutinized much more heavily ...whether it be deep submersibles touring the Titanic, or those operating at Caribbean-like tourist destinations in shallow coastal waters. Our prayers are with the families.
With such a high degree of experience under your belt doesn’t any of this sub narrative seem a bit fishy to you?
The ability to dot connect I have realized in the past 3 years is a skill that has one cut through the BS.
One of the most informative videos that’s come out since the breaking of this story
I love how he is not focusing on the faults but just saying less so as not to damage the families hope to find them
I like this guy... he didn't let the snake oil salesman CEO convince him with delusional confidence to go along in his carbon fiber Home Depot death trap... Smart man!!! The ego and arrogance of the CEO taking passengers with him and charging them a ridiculous amount of money is beyond criminal... and I know they signed waivers and "knew the risks..." but they were convinced by CEO that it was safe and they weren't getting the true story... especially feel bad for the teenage kid.
I imagine it would be easy to be taken in.
I feel for all of them, he may have been arrogant, risky decisions ect but he did get on the vessel, obviously thought they were safe or he wouldn’t have gone himself. This culture of cost cutting, dodgy practices ect happens all over the world in different industries and people die, this was just an extreme case that has gone horribly wrong and it always had risks.
Not that the families need the money, but I hope they sue…you can always get around waivers
Diving at depths that deep means thousands of lbs of extreme pressure. You cannot just use random crap to construct something for that environment and blow off safety guidelines. Part of why it took so long to find Titanic was because it was so deep and the extremely special equipment it takes to go that deep. When you see deep sea fish brought to the surface, they are all bloated and grotesque due to the absence of pressure they would normally be under. Unbelievable and preventable negligence. Congratulations and condolences to this guy for doing his due diligence and pulling out. Sad he has lost friends.
So goddam sad all around but I can’t help but feel a real deep sadness for the youngest victim. Whole life ahead of him.
His answer to the question of them being able to save them in his opinion was just the best!!! 😢
What a smart and humble man, not letting emotion get in the way and pursuing his adventures in a methodical manner.
This guy's name is "Common Sense"
That thing imploded when they lost comms with the mothership.
They've found a debris field.
They were dead 2 hours in.
No rescue.
That thing was ill-equipped. And somebody should be held responsible.
The person that should be held accountable is gone
Unfortunately that guy is now dead.
That decision likely saved his life!
You think? 😐
Absolutely
Now that they are finding pieces it's probably official
Wow what made you think it might have saved his life ?
What do you mean likely it definitely did because they all died its no debate now.
I always tell people over and over safety is number one,no matter where you're at or what you're doing
So glad this man has explained his hesitations that resulted in his deciding against going on the trip.
Stupid Is As Stupid Does. This Gentleman is Not Stupid.
I agree with you, I. been a researcher of the paranormal and Titanic and I could tell you this much. It is dangerous to go someplace where you are not wanted. Plus there's a lot of negative energy. Those who passed away in that area. It is better to live a happy man than someone wants to see something but die to see it. You know what I mean?
Thank u for mentioning the negative energy. İ believe the energy pass so easily. Many lost their lives and too much pain there.
Risk taker or not dumb stupid moronic those depths are unforgiving
Carbon fiber, probably had stress fractures from previous trips.
Some stress fractures can only be found by scan.
And what about the window?
No no, he tested it after each trip.
By tapping on the hull and listening to see if it sounds OK. Using just his knuckle and his ear. Tap tap, tap tap. Yeah, its fine. $250,000 please. Thankyou.
I KID YOU NOT!!!😡🤦🏻♂️
@cocksure8430 I pray your lying but after reading some crazy stuff the CEO did I fear you're not. He already said "safety I'd a waste"
@@cocksure8430- PLEASE tell me you are joking! 😢
nasa test all carbon fiber fuel tubes with all their space flights,they learned this the hard way with the shuttle discovery accident.The us test all steel planes each time I read it takes them 500 hours to do a small stelth fighter after two flights. This guy didn't give a crap he probably didn't even check the 9 volt battery in the controller.
I saw the Grand Canyon. Had no need to go down it. Saw the movie Titanic. That was enough for me.
I can appreciate his transparency. ❤ Heartbreaking all the same 💔
Good morning 🌞 🌹may this day come with all the love your heart can hold and bring you every success you desire may each of your footsteps bring joy
I’m so happy he did not lose his life as well.
The lack of redundancy is what hit me hardest when I heard about this
Same...completely mind boggling...appears to be due to a lack of respect for life.
They should leave the titanic alone it's not a tourist attraction it was a terrible tragedy albeit a long time ago let the people that died on that ship rest in peace
Anyone with a brain would walk out as soon as they saw the onboard game controller.
I would’ve backed out too. This all makes me question the critical thinking abilities of those who chose to take that risk.
You know Elon Musk would certainly be the first to step on Mars surface when it comes to the first launches there.
I wouldn’t judge these people so harshly, they lost their lives. When you’re told something is going to be safe and you want to see something historical like the titanic you’re going to be inclined to believe that it’s safe. They’re not dumb, just misguided and probably weren’t looking into it so much.
I have a fear of roller coasters but I’ve rode so many still even when I was concerned about being strapped in right, the ride being old, or the ride having a history of someone dying on it decades ago. But I still went on those coasters because I was told it was safe. Im still alive and don’t think this is comparable, but it’s my attempt to show how even if there’s concerns you’re probably going to believe something is safe if it’s advertised that way.
I'm wondering if they even knew. This guy knew but did everyone else? Did they know the full extent of the risks?
I toured a submarine once. Just walked in and out. That was enough for me to realize that I didn't ever want to rude on one.
This man’s intuition saved his life.
Could you imagine going on a ultra dangerous mission to the bottom of the ocean in a Ikea flatpack built submarine, because that's what happened here.
Can't imagine how he must be feeling right now. He was supposed to be on that vessel.... Now they are all deceased at the bottom of the ocean. Ugh so sad. I'm glad this man is smart. He's lucky to be alive.
He is not alive because he is lucky. He is alive because he is a smart, critical thinker-he does his research and makes his decision based on his findings.
Why I didn't take any cov!d vaxx because no accurate data on safety and I don't want blood clots or 🪱 parasites,
no myocarditis for me
He obviously listened to that little voice in back of your head. Don't go and he listened!! 👏👏
So sad their lives ended this way .I see the sadness in Chris's eyes Condolences and sympathy to family🙏🙏
Naw they were rich and lived a great life they choose to waste all that money instead of help people on land😂
@@budgonstopCANELO They tested their boundaries like alot of people I agree but how do you know they didnt help anyone in their lives? Its not a wasted life if you do what makes you happy!
God gives you gut feeling a warning when something is wrong or someone is dangerous, but lots of times humans brush that off. We always should listen to that voice, a gut feeling no matter what! Look what happened to those men
EXACTLY! Im not sure if that’s how it is if people don’t actually trust in God though unfortunately.
Oh yeah for sure
This was an avoidable tragedy. So unfortunate. It's just too bad something like this had to happen for the right people to become aware so that safety regulations can be put into place.
Unfortunately we humans learn by the misfortunes of others.
I mean, you sign a waiver saying it’s experimental and you can die. No one should be surprised when it happens.
We should avoid stupid people with power.... Not all experts are experts...
Prove that was the problem. Tell you what the real problem is. 99.99% of you believe whatever you want to believe, and the media is happy to feed you as long as you buy the products they sell.
@@bananamanchuria ĺ
Thank you all for this insight 😢 very unfortunate. Sounds like they found passengers who weren’t as knowledgeable 😢
I have seen the titanic wreckage and survived because I took my journey on youtube. To add realism I simulated the conditions by tuning the A/C up and watched the video through a glass mixing bowl.
2:38 Water Gate had a lighting strike that took out the electronics while testing!!
Chris Brown found out the homemade vessel wasn't certified to go that deep.
Chris has good instincts about the trip. Viewing and hearing Chris Brown talk about what he saw , it all makes sense even more. He likes to do adventures, but he has a strategy while there.
Chris Brown, I'm glad you are safe and well. Good luck with your next adventure. As long as you do it safe and know who you are getting involved with. I can take that suggestion if I want to do some exploring with other people.
Thanks Mr. Brown for speaking out.
Okay but why are you typing his name out so many times
This man has a natural & scientific instinct and evaluation about the right material, the certified tests and what is a straight decision making! Thank you for this interesting interview! And yes, of course, there should be a detailed investigation on certified or non-certified equipment and an international ban for High-risk noncertified equipment!!! My condolence to the families & friends in this!
Wisdom is a gift that many aren’t blessed with. Or even choose to “explore”
He took a 19 year old kid with them down below ⬇️ and there’s no way I would have went down there if there was too many red flags 🚩 prior to diving. Kudos to this guy for using his decernment
So the guy didn’t go because the sub wasn’t passing simple tests on the depth it can go underwater as well as a couple other red flags. He was smart and thought about it. I wonder if the ones who went thought about that
"Hinkey". A word cops use to describe when a suspect is just "off". Mr. Brown doesn't use the term, but I know he's thinking it. Having been a merchant seaman for 11 years, I never once thought it was a good idea to have an inspection cover bolted back in place when I was inspecting double-bottom ballast tanks.
There is no escape from 3,000 feet for a human. If they could have opened a hatch, the pressure would have killed them.
What a wonderful memory he shared with us about Hamish Harding. He seemed to be the kind of guy who truly valued human interaction, and cared more for the company he kept than the destination. i can guarantee you if they had even a moments notice in the submarine that things were going downhill that he would have spent his efforts on helping the people around him before himself. What a wonderful memory to share with the rest of us.
Very wise decision on this man's part. He followed his knowledge and his gut feeling. It's not our environment, and everything has to be perfect. I feel really bad for their family, but I don't understand their decision to risk that. I hope I'm wrong, but my condolences to the family.
Good morning 🌞 🌹may this day come with all the love your heart can hold and bring you every success you desire may each of your footsteps bring joy
Exhibit A of how when common sense takes over illogical impulse. Bravo to you, Sir! Bravo! 👏
Any vessel that uses a game controller to get down there and communication is a text message I would NEVER go on this thing. I can't help but wonder....how smart can these ppl be?
It’s because that sort of simplification was branded ‘edgy’ and ‘innovative’, and sold to them as ‘the future’ etc etc, and they fell for it. Literally.
@@african-history-fountain I would never fall for this js
Me either even if it was free no thanks
I think the reason is because 250,000$ per person you would have to think this thing has to be incredibly safe .
The navy uses Xbox controllers all the time. At least know what you're talking about first before commenting
There are so many red flags that this man saw and he was smart. Just the way the sub was built from cheap material and and using a gaming controller is enough for me. That company will be going through legal hell now.
I'm glad Chris pointed to the lack of third party certification rather than just the xbox controller. You can address any xbox controller issue with redundancy (extra xbox controllers in stores), I don't see any way to avoid the issues of an untested pressure hull if it fails.
I think once we all saw the third-party game controller, we all knew. They couldn't even purchase an actual Xbox controller? Prayers for the family. 🙏
Yea. A big issue is the controller they picked is notoriously bad. They break very quickly, and without outside forces, it's very likely it broke as well as other things going wrong
@@squuid15The cheaper controllers lose their connection often, and sometimes pair or re-pair to the wrong item. If it's just basic Bluetooth and is not somewhat encrypted. For example, you can accidentally have a cheap Bluetooth speaker pair up with some videogame controllers, or Bluetooth 'smart watches', or even an E-board. Acting wonky or not working at all, will be the only hint you have.
It’s possible the CEO faced enormous pressure from his company and his clients to NOT call the whole thing off. He likely knew it wasn’t safe. I can only imagine telling your wealthy clients that paid all this money and were psyched up to go and make history, that the whole thing had been called off. Ironically, this is kind of what happened in the original Titanic.
While possible, extremely unlikely. The stories coming out about this guy show a history of corner cutting and ignoring safer measures.
This is what hyper entrepreneurialism gets you
The CEO himself was ignorant... and never took anything seriously as it seems... he was just a good salesman selling this extremely risky trips to the ignorant wealthy clients... see his pervious interviews...
Ummm wasn't he on it...stockton rush?
something like this they'd have known it wasn't safe for years, not something they just became aware of
Want there a female onboard,?
it's not an unfair question... There will be NO recue. They are or will be dead soon. Even if they find the sub, there is NO WAY to get them out. They are as good as dead. Shame the news didnt say this from day one. Sad yes, but true.
Very disturbing that staff are now stating their safety concerns.
The ones that did got fired
They came out years ago (in 2018) but it didn’t make the news until now. They were even in a legal battle about it but the company/ CEO settled out of court
Staff are definitely not as fault as it is well documented that they did formally voice concerns.
That dog won’t hunt!
Unfortunately money can't buy common sense , This man has it by the seems of it .... Just a shame the blokes on the lost submersible didn't or they may still be here now .
By the seems of it???
@@JacobNightingale yup lol
He has a bit of it, he still said he will continue to 'explore'.
Common sense isn't very common.
The company had made 230 dives in the past using 3 submersibles (not always to the Titanic or similar depths). I think most people would just think, "They did it 200+ times, nobody died, all these other people are also obviously wealthy businessmen with advisors and the means to do due diligence, seems legit."
Just like many people would never dream to do, say, a bungee jump or skydiving or wingsuit gliding because others have died doing those things, but others would say, "This is the probability, it's super low, not a concern."
I think of the number of times I make hasty decisions, sometimes, to my own detriment. This guy should be a role model for all of us consumers who get seduced by slick marketing because that's what it is, safety is compromised.
He went with his gut instinct! Most of the time we don’t listen to it. Thank god he did!
Sincere sympathy to the families of these people.R.I.P.
It's 250k to build that submersible.
I wouldn't get on one anyway. But certainly not one that's uncertified and cost 250k to build!
It's 200k a ticket to go, so basically they make their money back in 1 journey. But they clearly weren't equipped for that either.
It's so Sad That TheTitanic is still taking lives
Exactly!
It would be so nice if people in general would show some kind of intelligence in understanding that a ship cannot "take lives" in the first place, and in the second place, a ship that's been lying dead at the bottom of the ocean for 111 years has no capabilities whatsoever to do anything at all in any way, shape, manner, or form!!!
@@jb6712 I meant that people are still going there to see the wreckage and it is resulting in the loss of their lives.
Yes.horrible! the experience is not worth ur life!
@@jb6712 Lol, I don't think it was meant that way at least I didn't take it that way.
I bet he's thrilled with his judgment and should be
honest and intelligent man with the utmost compassion and respect. rip x
I appreciated his interview. You can tell he was trying to answer the questions and be professional while also being respectful of the family of the people who were on the sub. My thoughts and well wishes go out to the families affected by this tragedy.
That's one smart man 👨
Prayers be with the family of those aboard. Thank you for all the information .
They're all dead
They don’t need prayer they have plenty of money there’s people on land and still on earth who need prayers
Unbelievable. All that money and the ceo guy cut corners? And he still had the nerve to charge $250k per person?!
Sounds like sold a rusty car with a brand-new price, don't call him CEO, he is just a con man.
A gentleman delivered his answers with direct point and thought about the families of loved ones lost.
The Coast guard just found debris from the sub, they found the frame and the end cap of the sub, those people are gone. May God bless their souls.
titanic: leave us alone
dead victims of titanic: you want to join us?
so scary... RIP to those who lost their lives
Wow. He is so well spoken.
Great interview and informative Chris Brown, can hear emotion in voice 😢
So sad that these what most would call wise and successful men didn't think through all of the potential dangers on this craft. But what is the most troubling, is that 19 year old young man obviously wanting to follow in his dad's adventurous footsteps. These poor family members who, in spite of their wealth will never get over this tragedy.
Wise and successful? Maybe , maybe lucky
The young man did not want to go down he was afraid but went anyway as it was a gift to his dad for Fathers Day. He didn’t want to disappoint him. 🙁
the only one who had a shred of common sense before getting on that thing and risking their lives
That’s sad the second person who backed out to be on that sub and asked a friend to go in their place.
I wouldn't have gone on that experimental thing if you paid me a million dollars and I'm poor AF.
Excellent interview, very informative. I pray they are found alive.
Engineers and explorers. Learn from this man regarding how to assess risk and come to conclusions 👏. Also, great handling of the questions.
I had going to explore the Titanic on a sub on my bucket list. I was shocked when I saw the emersable looking so cheap and unsophisticated in design and safety. The price tag of a quarter of a million you would think it was a real sub like the navy uses. I was more shocked when I found out they didn't have any certification over less than 2k feet when they go to 12k feet. How was it legally allowed to go to uncertified depths? I would never had gone on that submersible looking like it did and not passing deep depth certifications. The government agencies that allowed this company to take people to these depths without certifications should be sued. They are responsible for not shutting this business down.
The company and people who got on it are responsible, not the government.
There are some places people are not bound to go. If we insists, catastrophic things happen.
So true! And yet humanity is still dumb and arrogant enough to test nature
Good morning 🌞 🌹may this day come with all the love your heart can hold and bring you every success you desire may each of your footsteps bring joy
people should be respectful and leave the titanic alone, it is a burial site after all, and they have the photos and artefacts any way, it is not a sight seeing adventurer tour, let the dead rest in peace who died all those years ago, I feel for the families of the men who are missing
Agree. Let it go back to dust.
While I don’t wish or hope for death for anyone, given the bad reputation and issues with these subs, I don’t know why the hell you would willingly go on a trip like this when the obvious combined factors are a recipe for disaster! There will be a huge lawsuit for this and it’s so annoying in cases like this when humanity ignores clear dangers and safety for the sake of more money or convenience! Praying for the victims and their families!
Same reason you get in a car and drive everyday knowing millions have died on the road. Maybe try hushing up before shitting on the decisions of potentially deceased individuals? Have some common DECENCY!
I think the company has them sign a waiver saying death is a possibility not once but three or four times...
Praying for,the soul of this brothers and healing for theirs families;very unfortunate ,lost😢❤
there is no lawsuit that would hold up in court, ever heard of signing your rights away? that's what the passengers did before doing this.. They signed a paper that gave everyone a waiver in case anything goes horribly wrong, as it did..
Waivers don't matter if negligence can be proven...which it 100% can be proven in this case.
"Preserve the wreck".... this is a sign that the Titanic needs to be left alone 🙏
Excellent interview and great answers by Mr. Brown. The family of adventurers know the risks. I hope against hope these souls make it.
This sounded like a DEATH trap.

What a terrible tragedy. What thoughtful comments. It's obviously this gentleman is a kind, beautiful human being.
Dude must be experiencing the most intense "i told you so" moment ever.😮
My heart goes out to the families of these people ♥️ I can't even imagine what they're feeling.
Don't worry. They literally have never felt any worry for you in their lives. They are panicking in how are they going to get back to their wealth. Nobody about themselves ironic.
It reminds me of underage drinking.. or maybe that is where I believe this tragedy can make good. Teenagers don’t know what to believe.. on one hand drinking alcohol is against the law. On the other the peer pressure, “all the cool kids”, and or stress/tension of teenage life.. so there are the negs (with valid reason) and the mavericks (offering an experience). Teenagers every day make a choice. Not everyone who drinks underage dies, or gets behind a wheel. But often I saw some get trapped in a situation like stuck at a party, afraid of parents or criticism or even missing responsibilities like a test the next day.. they may get offered a ride with someone who should not be driving..
Ditto above situation but getting into a car with a rapist Uber..
In life we navigate risk. It isn’t always cut and dried. Interesting and adventurous people often navigate outlier risks. It may not be our cup of tea, but these risk takers do help society evolve and understand its self.
It is easy to be a neg.
This gentleman did a solid job of keeping it classy and factual why he didn’t follow through on this adventure once he learned more.
We have to pray for them
Good morning 🌞 🌹may this day come with all the love your heart can hold and bring you every success you desire may each of your footsteps bring joy
Did he say he wanted to go down and take 3D pictures in order to help preserve the ship?? Surely I missed something lol
How do you get on something like that when the controller is actually a damn gaming controller & tell yourself this is TOTALLY SAFE.
Cutting corners, not listening to employees, not getting certified. This man said it all. A disaster waiting to happen. It’s just a matter of when, not if.
When money becomes an obsession. When excitement seeking becomes an addiction. Lessons to learn here. People with tons of money think they are kings.
Arrogence is a friend of the rich but ignorant. Hope they are found. Sometime, someone has to sacrifice to teach a lesson to the world. Be humble. Let go when it’s time. Listen to your heart.
