An expert detailed Thursday what the five victims killed in the Titan submersible likely faced in the “catastrophic implosion” near the Titanic ship.
The United States Coast Guard announced on Thursday that the five passengers inside the submersible were “lost” in a “catastrophic implosion” just hours after they found debris near the wrecked Titanic ship.
“The reality is, at that depth and at those pressures, this is the natural outcome … this is definitely the way to go,” G. Michael Harris, a Titanic expedition leader, said on Fox News. “So, two nanoseconds for that vehicle to implode and it would take your spinal column four nanoseconds to register to your brain. Then it’s a problem. So we always said if there’s a problem out of the body in the presence of the Lord.”
Butch Hendrick, a rescue diver, said he hoped the submersible was “entangled,” and added he is thankful the search has been resolved. Dr. Michael Gullen, who experienced being stuck in a vessel undersea, said he knew the situation had to be a “catastrophic failure.”

“It was designed to pop back up to the surface if anything had gone wrong happened, and it had backup systems, electrical systems and ultimately compressive air systems, automatic systems and the fact that none of those systems kicked in to bring this thing to the top, indicated to me that it had to be a catastrophic failure,” Gullen said.
The remains of the five passengers have not been found by search teams. The victims have been identified as British billionaire Hamish Harding, French oceanographer and Titanic researcher Paul-Henri Nargeolet, OceanGate CEO and pilot Stockton Rush, Pakistani business mogul Shahzada Dawood and his 19-year-old son, Suleman.
The submersible departed off the coast of St. John’s, Newfoundland on Sunday and lost contact with the mother ship less than two hours after its departure. Experts said the submersible would likely run out of oxygen by Thursday as it was equipped with 96 hours of breathable air.
A search for the submersible immediately began for several days until the discovery of the debris.

Seems like no one is talking about the toll the compression and decompression cycles had on the hull integrity. The sub took a few trips so there was probably a weak point which developed in the hull. ...could have even been some amount of ultraviolet ray and salt water weakening of the hull materials while sub was topside or in the water. Needed more white 50 year old engineers, corrosion experts and deep dive masters. Still a sad way to go....however quick.
No, they died within the first 90 minutes on the way down, according to the CG
As previously mentioned, the “powers” lying to the public yet again. SOP!
Much better than anticipating running out of oxygen while confined in that little space, I suppose.
Then one can switch over to the conspiracy theory that Biden & Co. knew it had imploded early on, cynically milking it as a distraction. Removes the claustrophobic nightmares of being entombed alive for any length. Doesn’t help with nightmares re: Biden unfortunately.
The Titanic’s debris field is scattered about but generally at a depth of about 12,500 feet. That makes for about 5700 psi water pressure on the hull. It would be like being killed in a (very fast moving) hydraulic press.
I would place Lost as second in terms of a finale letdown.
St. Elsewhere was a good series.
David Chase said that that ending scene was one of the first things he fleshed out when he started writing The Sopranos, he knew from the beginning that was how he wanted to end it.
Likely pressurization failed, resulting in implosion.
There are no remains...they are part of the sea.
It’s over before before you feel it...like stubbing your toe and the slight lag before the swearing starts.
Maybe the Gorilla Glue gave way on the front hatch.

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.
The nanosecond claim is preposterous. Light travels 10 inches in a nanosecond. Water has issues with such speeds.
There are no remains.
