Likely pressurization failed, resulting in implosion.

Sub hulls are the only thing resisting the pressure. Interior pressurization has no effect whatsoever, as normal atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi and obviously would have no effect on resisting the 5000+ psi pressure at that depth.

This scene always creeped me out about submersibles.
