FinnFootedLIVE: CBS confirms, debris from Titan submersible indicates rapid and catastrophic implosion. The people on board are believed to be dead.
I just can’t understand why ANYONE with that much money wouldn’t be a little more careful about where they choose to take risk. A little investigation on their part would have turned up the previous safety concerns.
I guess the CEO of OceanGate joining them for the dive would have given them a false sense of comfort.
Interestingly, that same CEO mentioned that the Titan submersible was already showing signs of cyclical fatigue back in 2020:

It would be fascinating if we could get an aircraft disaster style analysis but I don't know if they would do so for marine accidents.
I wonder if they have a blackbox built in. doubt they have since they've skip so many standard.
They didn't even have a locator beacon, and the sub ran Windows for some insane reason.
I would be amazed if they had a black box.
