First Footage Of OceanGate's Titan Submersible Wreckage Revealed

The first footage showing the wreckage of OceanGate Expeditions' Titan submersible has been released since the vessel’s implosion last year.

The U.S. Coast Guard Marine Board of Investigation (MBI) unveiled the video on Tuesday during a public hearing in North Charleston, South Carolina. The footage, captured by a remotely operated vehicle, shows the catastrophic implosion of the 22-foot submersible on June 18, 2023, resulting in the tragic loss of all five people aboard.

The victims included Stockton Rush, the CEO of OceanGate; British businessman Hamish Harding; British-Pakistani billionaire Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood; and French diver Paul-Henri Nargeolet. They were attempting to dive to the Titanic, which rests approximately 12,500 feet below the surface of the Atlantic Ocean, several hundred miles off the coast of Canada.

The Son that didn't want to go with His Father because he knew better saddens me the most. ☹

[DDee-oikn]

I imagine it happened so fast they didn't have time to think much about it. Very sad for those families.

A piece of carbon fiber, gerry-rigged electrical, controlled by a defective Playstation controller, a few thousand meters below the ocean's surface....what could possibly go wrong?

Stockton Rush: "I think it was General MacArthur who said, 'You're remembered for the rules you break." And I've broken some rules to make this." It's a shame he ensured everyone would remember him for the lives he carelessly ended.

Take off your shoes, crawl inside. Get bolted in from the outside with no way out from the inside? NO way. Absolutely not..

[cuffy]

Will they be doing tours to this wreckage?

[levitezoe]

Absolutely everything on this thing looks like it was made by 4th graders with the help of one lazy gym teacher

[timbrown]

Why wouldn't they have recovered this tail section when they retrieved the rest of the imploded vehicle?

[marcjorgensen]

How did they get that cargo strap around it?

[sallykohorst]

Wow that is so sad and RIP to the lost souls. That sub never should have left the surface.

[JeseniaEsperanza]

Okay, I'll ask the hard question. This imploded ? As in, this collapsed on itself ?

[insertchannel]

I don't really feel back for the 4 grown men who willingly went. I feel bad for the son who didn't want to. I genuinely hope he (I guess all of them..) didn't know it happened... I hope the families are able to recover from this and that they find peace.

[llibmukred]

They spent all that money just to get popped.

[cmkeelDIM]

Reading the comments to this is torturous. Not about the deaths, but the sheer amount of STUPID on display!

[ajvonline]

I'd estimate they still have about 4 hours of air left.

[larryisaacs]

How did the bunge strap get placed on the hull?

[fatimasiddiqui]

I don't understand 1 thing if u can't see ship with real eyes by going out there only the screen will show u then what's the use 2 go down there it can be seen from home too!

[michaelmijatovich]

Why are we still seeing the same thing after it happened awhile ago

[bowty_mcboatface]

I thought the immense pressure of the implosion blew everything to smithereens?

[jenniferlof]

This looks like it was placed there. I thought it would be scattered due to the force of the explosion.
