Former Titan passenger describes underwater trip on sub

Rescue crews are searching frantically for the oxygen-starved Titan submersible. Aaron Newman, OceanGate investor and a passenger on the submersible in 2021, joined CBS News to describe what it is like to be inside the Titan.

    Well, hope he didn't put a lot of eggs in that investment basket. And to say they were not tourists is ridiculous. They may be experienced, but they're still tourists in a place where it is totally inappropriate to tour for so many many reasons. My great grandfather was a Titanic survivor and it sickens me. Anyway, they died living their dream and instantly. No need to feel sad for the for "adults" anyway. We should all be so lucky. Now leave the Titanic alone!!!

    As a subsea engineer, equipment used in ultra deep water must be rigorously pressure tested at around 1.5x the working pressure and for many cycles without a single sign of failure in order to be approved. Materials and welds must follow strict guidelines defined by government institutes. Considering this sub was a pressure containing vessel for humans, it's insane that it was allowed to be used

    One aspect to this type of journey is that you cannot be claustrophobic. That 19 year old was petrified and I do not blame him. He probably felt squeezed and hanging out with old men was not his idea of fun. I truly liked James Cameron's interview because he seemed to be quite honest. He st the record straight.

    Further, the craft was designed to reach depths of 4,000 meters (13,123 feet), where the Titanic rested. But, according to Lochridge, the passenger viewport was only certified for depths of up to 1,300 meters (4,265 feet), and OceanGate would not pay for the manufacturer to build a viewport certified for 4,000 meters.

The Titanic sank fourteen years later, and was almost the exact size and speed of the fictional Titan. Just hearing the name would’ve sent me running.

    This guy Stockton rush ignored all experts who told him to slow down and go through the right process in certification of his submersible. He ultimately killed the other 4, yes there was a risk of death. But I think the other 4 didn’t realize how unsafe their sub was. They were under the impression this was a legit professional dive company and out their lives in their hands. Stupid but sad. Had Stockton had patience he could have had a great expedition company in the future but now nothing. I didn’t even know OceanGate was a thing or who Stockton rush was before this tragedy happened. Now he’s famous for being dead. Great legacy

Cracks started to appear in the walls, but they didn't evacuate the building...except for management. Sounds like the same team took over the construction of this underwater vessel...

    95% of people are like you. You experience life vicariously through a plasma screen while sitting on your couch. My childhood home was on the Smith River in Northern California. It's a class 7 whitewater river. When I was 5 years old, I wanted to go fishing by myself and my mother said when I could swim across the river I could go fishing alone. I taken swimming lessons so I had a lot of self confidence. My mother took me up river where the river dropped several feet and became raging white water rapids. I dove in an swam across and then back. From that point on I was a free ranging kid with the river in the back yard and the Stout Grove Redwood forest to ride my bicycle in. My mother worked for the USFS on Fire Lookouts and I would hike down 4 miles and hitch rides on logging trucks down the 14 miles to the river where I would spend the day swimming alone and sunbathing, occasionly encountering bears which is a normal event when you live in the mountains. Thankfully my mother wasn't a helocopter mom like you. I can't imagine a different childhood. That was in the late 1950's through the 1960's.. Also, I never had a single vaccine in my life, but I'll wager your child has at least 82 vaccines...

    Because most submarines are run by the military, they seem to have a fairly good safety record. Problem is, at a mile down (the halfway point) there really isn't much that a team could do no matter how experienced. Two most likely causes for loss of communication, the imploded or they lost power. Both mean they wouldn't survive. 96 hours of oxygen means little if they were sitting on the bottom of the ocean. As far as I know, the vessel isn't heated. Even if it were, it clearly is insufficient to combat the immense cold at those depths. The temp is just above freezing. 24-48 hours is probably max in a cigar tube to avoid hypothermia. US naval subs operate at significantly less than 1000 feet down. It is over 12,000 feet to Titanic.

To go down in the 1st place being locked in from the outside and not having a back up contingency, ie a control line to the Mother Ship, a rescue recovery craft (with crew) on standby or having 24/7 comms. He was rash, flippant and woefully gung ho which implies he was in it for the money sadly. He stated he didn't want all his staff to be "white" 50 year old male retired submariners which to my mind also indicated he wanted 'yes' men, not experienced professionals!! Plus he also boasted that rules and regulations hindered "innovation" so in that sense he should never have been in his position or his job, AND if he sent anything down to the sea-bed, it should have been "unoccupied" this is a scandalous waste of intelligent life, it is a crime unfortunately. My heart goes out to all ❤

    You won't want to get on that sub until an unmanned version has successfully dived a thousand times before... I mean, how many experiments had they done before they put people in that 6.4m capsule?

    Pretty sure they underestimated the subtly of the study of the strength of materials. Cracks can propagate and I heard the CEO citing the fact he went 25x down there as if that’s the end all and be all of safety. It’s not. These things can take a lot of cycles to lead to failure. I’d put my money on hull implosion and instant death as they approached the bottom - fits all the info available. An engineer even quit bc of hull design. And the ceo himself said the certification bodies for submarines don’t allow carbon fiber and he wanted to be the first …

    From what I read, that engineer didn't quit - he was fired and sued by OceanGate for voicing his concerns over the safety of the sub, and he was one of their best engineers.

    Managed to find his name if it's the same guy we're talking about. His name is David Lochridge.
