Titan Submarine: Full animation & transcript before tragic implosion

What a strange use of the word "mishap". Dropping an egg on the floor is a mishap. 5 people imploding into liquid mush in under a second is a disaster.

OceanGate was a cowboy outfit run by narcissist Stockton Rush, who did everything on the cheap to maximise profits. As the company's former chief engineer David Lochridge pointed out, fired for voicing his concerns, that cost cutting included safety - a total no no. The disaster was inevitable, the only way it could have been avoided, is if someone had stopped that maniac from playing deep sea Russian roulette with people's lives. No one did.

[@RichardS-qh8mi]

Absolute insanity to go that depth where the pressure is over 2 tons psi and in a cylinder too, which is even more stupid.

[@adamw2911]

When you are as wealthy as those onboard were. Common sense and being told 'no' just isn't a thing.

[@grondhero]

Cylinder shape wasn't the problem - it was the carbon fiber, the adhesive, and not listening to the engineers, and buying cheap stuff to save money.

[@iillestrs2153]

They literally found a crack prior to the dive and that idiot still went down and took people with him, also wild to build it based around an airplane design, which deals with completely opposing pressures. The arrogance and ignorance is unbelievable lol

[@RichardS-qh8mi]

@@grondhero Actually a cylinder at that depth is a problem that’s why military submarines have a relatively limited maximum dive capability of around 1,500ft. The only truly safe submersible at those staggering depths of nearly 14,000ft would be a perfect sphere. Yet this arrogant fool decided to go against all well known forms of accepted, tried and tested to the limit engineering.

The last communication from the Titan( dropping two weights), they seemingly were trying to either head back up or slow their decent. This is kinda terrifying, to think, that even for a moment there was the awareness that something wasn't right, and didn't have time to act fast enough...

[@jdaniel3068]

From the hearings that was a normal procedure at that approx depth to slow their descent as they approached Titanic. They had no warning or sounds before the glue seal failed. The best possible scenario in this event.

[@neophenom]

@@jdaniel3068 I heard about that. I figured that was also a possibility, and considering the alternative, that's probably for the best.

[@Kamon67]

@@jdaniel3068 I hope the two weight dropped was to slow down the descend and not an attempt to resurface. That would've mean they knew something was about to happen

[@NoTengoIdeaGuey]

No they had no clue what happened. He was dropping weights to slow down, because their tracking system was not working and told him he was several hundred meters higher than he actually was. They were thinking "okey doke bout to be there" moments before they hit the ocean floor too fast and imploded.

[@nwildcat]

I don't think this explanation of hiring the floor too fast was backed by any of the testimony this fast in the investigation ​@@NoTengoIdeaGuey

Sub lost at 3350 m depth, and Titanic is at 3800 m in depth.... they got pretty close. I always assumed the thing imploded halfway in the descent or so.

They made it all the way down and back up previous times.

It's a miracle that sub survived two previous trips. They should have retired the vessel after hearing the "crunching noises" the first time.

[@Spats2Bats]

Now that you mention it...I'm literally even more horrified then before about this whole situation. It was like...they actually wanted to get there as fast as possible for the sake of profit, just like was mentioned during the hearings! How absolutely disgusting that this was even allowed to go forward, especially with that atrocious communication breakdown during the descent. The day we actually stop narcissists from running companies, the better off our lives will be.

[@yoursugarismine]

I don’t understand what you were expecting to see. This seems to be what happened in real time…they didn’t realise there was an emergency..they only knew they were descending too fast and in the end they dropped weights to “land” a bit slower and not crash on the bottom. It didn’t seem they were panicking and whatnot. So this is what really happened in real time

[@GGBundy]

I’ve been into everything Titanic since I was a kid and my wife and I have been to all of the Titanic museums within reasonable distance from our home. 2-3 years ago a friend of mine who is a Titanic nerd and filthy rich, found out that there was a company called Ocean Gate and they were eventually going to start taking passengers on dives to the Titanic! My friend had even gone so far as to reach out to Ocean Gate for more information but he said they never got back to him. He asked me “if he could get tickets to dive to the Titanic would I go with him!” My answer was a quick and emphatic “hell no”! There’s no way I’m getting my black a$$ into a tiny submersible to go see the Titanic. It’s too hostile an environment and given my crappy luck I’d put everyone else’s life in danger as well so absolutely not! I’ll view her from afar. That said I can’t believe these people all died because of their poor choices. Stockton and his team were playing Russian Roulette with their own lives and the lives of their passengers. Like Titanic this story is filled with people who have tons of money making poor decisions.

[@MrDoomquake777]

What is the name of the music playing? It's catchy

[@davewhite3629]

Even the route that they took into the abyss looks stupid.

[@elementneon]

How so? That is how dives go, you go to the general location based on GPS, but the ocean currents are always moving. Generally you get as close to position as you are able, drop to depth, and move to find your target. The route seemed relatively fine aside from them needing to apparently move the host ship while tethered to the submersible, that seems like a problem waiting to happen.

[@Andy-oz7bj]

​@@elementneonTethered? I thought it was a free dive. If it was tethered, wouldn't the PP known when the implosion occurred?

so the cabin was pressurised but the rest wasnt & they also had an onboard toilet ,descent was too fast & the comms are text messages on an app on a phone that 20 years ago didnt work underwater ( or in planes on 911 ) or horny submariners would be sending dick pix 24/7
