As a former Navy instructor who taught SUBSAFE work practices, I believe this was professional malpractice. Certifications cost money, cutting corners cost lives...

Thank you to the Coast Guard and all looking for them.

Physics is a harsh mistress.

I read the full story. Ocean gate sub after 3 trips was losing buoyancy control to go as deep as they needed to reach the titanic. as a result the captain would manually force the ship down lower with thrusters which would make him lose communication with the land where he was being navigated. Previously happened he lost communication for previous trip for over an hour was lucky to make it back up.
so essentially captain took over manually to force the ship down and then lost communication and pitch black dark- did not know where he was driving he crashed, it imploded.

Sending out lots of love and prayers to all the family and friends of these men. Thank you to all who went out and helped in anyway to search and try to bring these men home alive. I’m so sorry to all 🙏💕

Damn...I had a bad feeling about this. My condolences to all the families. This is really sad and such a terrifying way to die. I can't imagine how scared all of them must have been. RIP to all of them 😔

[katieelizabeth]

At least they didn’t suffer and it was quick and done, not drawn out thinking they were going to suffocate to death. The Navy, Coast Guard, and all other agencies involved did their best throughout the week and remained optimistic and focused on a rescue response not a recovery, sadly their isn’t much to recover and their spirits will mingle with those lost on the Titanic.
Prayers to all the families and friends who lost their loved ones. This was so tragic and so sad. Thankfully the search is over, there are some answers, and the healing process can begin. 😔🙏

[idriszakir]

Sorry but those people died in vain. Risking your lives in pursuit of titanic remnants is possibly the stupidest thing to have done

[HoustonH-Town]

Condolences to the families on the loss of your loved ones. May Almighty God give them comfort at this needed time. We thank and appreciate all efforts to everyone involved in the search for the 5 passengers aboard the Titan submarine. This is truly a very sad day for all.😢🙏

Incredibly sad for them and their families.
