Where do you think he got the idea for Avatar? It was from seeing the amazing bioluminescent life in the Mariana's Trench.

In 2018, OceanGate's director of marine operations, David Lochridge, composed a report documenting safety concerns he had about the Titan. In court documents, Lochridge said that he had urged the company to have the Titan assessed and certified by an agency, but OceanGate had declined to do so, citing an unwillingness to pay. He also said that the transparent viewport on its forward end was only certified to reach a depth of 1,300 m (4,300 ft), only a third of the depth required to reach the Titanic. Lochridge was also concerned that OceanGate would not perform nondestructive testing on the vessel's hull before undertaking manned dives, and alleged that he was "repeatedly told that no scan of the hull or Bond Line could be done to check for delaminations, porosity and voids of sufficient adhesion of the glue being used due to the thickness of the hull". OceanGate said that Lochridge, who was not an engineer, had refused to accept safety approvals from OceanGate's engineering team, and that the company's evaluation of the Titan hull was stronger than any kind of third-party evaluation Lochridge thought necessary. OceanGate sued Lochridge for allegedly breaching his confidentiality contract and making fraudulent statements. Lochridge countersued, stating that he had been wrongfully terminated as a whistleblower for bringing up concerns about the Titan's ability to operate safely. The two parties settled a few months later. Later in 2018, the Marine Technology Society wrote a letter to Rush expressing "unanimous concern regarding the development of 'TITAN' and the planned Titanic Expedition", indicating that the "current experimental approach [...] could result in negative outcomes (from minor to catastrophic) that would have serious consequences for everyone in the industry". A signatory of the letter later told The New York Times that Rush had called him after reading it to tell him that he believed industry standards were stifling innovation.

Thank you for the story. Knowing that it has only gone to one third of the depth of the Titanic and falsely claiming it can go all the way to reach the ship without problems, shows blatant irresponsibility, negligence, misrepresentation, malfeasance, fraud. and more. There is definitely a lawsuit in there. In the very first deep sub descent into the Mariana Trench (36,000ft) in 1960 by Jacques Picard and Don Walsh, which was meticulously prepared for for years, there was actually a similar incident. Just before they reached the bottom of the trench after 4 hours descent, at 30,000ft, they heard a loud crack but decided to continue to the bottom and started looking around. Then they noticed cracks on their viewing window. Picard cut short their time at the bottom at 20 minutes and decided to ascend immediately. They succeeded in 3hrs 45mins and reached topside unscathed, to become the first men to reach the deepest part of the ocean. It is a great testament to the fine design and engineering of the bathyscaphe Trieste by Jacques Picard and to the professionalism, presence of mind and bravery of both men. James Cameron has said in other interviews that he has been in a similar sub with a carbon fibre hull and reported that he had heard cracking sounds as they descended. Other people who have ridden in Titan reported hearing this as well. Rush has dismissed this as 'normal' and nothing to worry about. Cameron said that CF is a composite material made of different substances which behave differently under stress, which in turn will weaken its overall structure over time. The cumulative cycles of descent/ascent/stress the composite material go through will cause it to have a fatal breach at some point. In contrast, a single homogenous material such as solid steel or titanium or ceramic can withstand multiple cycles much better for far longer and is therefore much safer. But they eschewed those in favour of CF.

I feel bad for the 4 other passengers that died in this tragedy. I don't feel bad for the CEO because this totally could've been prevented if he had just followed safety guidelines.

Listen again what James Cameron said in this interview.

James Cameron is so tech-savvy and knowledgable, he could've easily pursued a career in engineering, although that would've robbed us of the many great movies that he made. I've seen multiple interviews with him about the incident and he really hits the perfect tone. Heartfelt compassion for the familys left behind, but also relentlessly critizising the whole operation and how amateurishly it had been carried out. He's also very modest considering the fact that he is probably one of the leading experts in deep submersible diving, so he definitely knows much more than just "a thing or two", as he stated in a prior interview.

The problem with using carbon fiber/Titanium laminate (or any laminate at all) is that the weakest part is the glue holding everything together. The glue is much less strong, and any breakdown will occur in the glue first. The pressures at the depth they were diving are immense. Repeatedly diving without stringent detailed inspections of the submersible's hull designed to detect such breakdowns, is unconscionable. One former passenger, speaking about his experience on diving the Titanic in that submersible, said it best; "It was a suicide mission." Luckily, he and the submersible survived that dive. Anyone diving the Titanic in OceanGate's submersible was playing Russian Roulette.

Its worse then russian roulette. At least with roulette you have a 1/6th chance of surviving. The sub had no chance of surviving at that deep waters with such horrible engineering. Its basically suicide like you said.

Love watching James Cameron talk about Titanic, even for the wrong reasons, like the Titan tragedy. The relevance of the ship and his movie, on yearly basis, is really fascinating.

Thank you Mr. Cameron for being extremely honest here🙏

*James please direct and produce Titanic 2 based on this Titan Submersible incident*

The eeriness of passenger Stockton Rush’s wife being the great-great-granddaughter of the Straus Family who died on the titanic. Yikes. (The old couple hugging in the bed in the movie)

No joke, this whole ordeal is just too much. The similarities are haunting

“Arrogance” and “recklessness” very straightforward and true insight by james

Cameron very much is the top expert on these things and was the voice I was interested in hearing from the most.

Pretty sure James Cameron could build a real-life Terminator if he committed himself to it. Seven years! That's dedication. I'm sure that all the engineering revolved around safety protocals and back up systems as evident in how he explained the various satellite beacons and auto-ascend feature in case he became "incapacitated". Wow, just wow.

That was a great interview

I could listen to Cameron talk 24/7

Wow! "The arrogance and the hubris that ship to its doom..." Plain talk, not necessarily bad manners. Sometimes theres just no substitute for saying it like it is.

It’s crazy to think that the Titanic has left some kind of curse in that part of the ocean… Like a siren singing out to its potential victims.

Ghost ship , you are right . because they were lot of people who died in that ocean long ago ,and some of the lost souls are still in pain .

I don't see the advantage of going in person when a ROV telepresence would achieve the same visual experience. No one dies if your ROV implodes.

Stockton Rush will be remembered as a criminal that took the lives of 4 other people. His legacy is tarnished forever and his company is gone.

History doesn't repeat itself but it sure does love a rhyme.

This was like jumping aboard someone’s homemade aeroplane, who’s owner told you it was uncrashable.

The same thing happened in 1986 with the challenger space shuttle. The top guys didn't listen to the warnings and it ended in tragedy.

I don't know if this would be considered "Irony" but if James Cameron never made the movie "Titanic" would so many people be willing to risk their lives getting into a sub and viewing the wreckage, would this tragedy had happened? I knew James Cameron engineering background, but to hear him speak about his knowledge really has impressed me

you can't say the movie is responsible. the titanic has been the most famous marine disaster from the moment it sank in 1912. The movie just increased the interest but numerous dives had happened before the movie and the whole world new about it. With this logic no one can make an art piece about a tragedy. The movie has nothing to do with it the ocean gate people are just irresponsible.

He directed The Abyss.. another great movie about deep diving... I thought more about The Abyss than the Titanic when hearing about this tragedy.

Rest in peace to these 5 poor men. I was hopeful that they were going to make it out alive. 😢

James Cameron is an engineer, not an artist. This interview was 1,000 times better than Avatar.

James Cameron is such a voice of reason kinda guy. always so articulate in any interview i’ve heard from him. rip x

As a 19 year old myself this shit hits different

It's not the first, and certainly not the last time that an executive doesn't understand the value of engineering and that you cannot "want" something into existence, but that it takes work and testing instead of talking and making assertions.

James Cameron took 7 years to make his sub before traveling there. That says a hell of a lot that he took more time preparing his sub to go than he actually stayed down there once he reached his objective. Let that sink in.

Never sub estimate the nature ..

I said the exact same thing. History literally repeated itself and they ignored all warnings not to dive down there on that day. Just sad all around.

They cheaped out on titanic with the iron rivets instead of steal too…

He’s really good at explaining a complicated thing in a way anyone could understand

He’s so eloquent ❤

Oceangate will definitely be going “under”

I'm thinking the window could have busted open with all of that pressure.

@Raiya_ru17

No doubt. There’s only one window anyway but after all the explanation, with that sub not even able to tolerate more than 4000ft of pressure, and they are below 13000ft…just imagine exploding under too much pressure.😶

James Cameron is the real deal. He really turned into a Na'vi before filming Avatar 1 and 2.

It's very prevalent for billionaires to take things to the extreme going on these adventures and it just baffles you how they could go to those lengths instead of creating alternative solutions to solve climate crisis or food shortage

Major respect to James Cameron! I knew he was an amazing director and film maker but apparently he's a brilliant engineer in the field! And on the other end of things, Titanic now claims 5 more lives....

Excellent interview.

How does this not make you emotional? I am torn apart 😢😢

It would seem that Oceangate got too big for its britches. The first hull barely made it through testing before it started to show signs of fatigue. But they pushed this hull to failure on its 14th trip. From what it sounds like to me the original hull had very little testing and not very many deep cycles. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OceanGate

Seems the Titanic has claimed more victims.

Why wasn't this on the news on the moment they went in???? First heard about it when it got lost .....

Tragic prayers to the victims and families.. Climbers too pass away relatively often on high altitude mountains such as Everest etc. esp now a-days with way more “adventure” tours being booked not every one is properly equipped or capable.. The remains of the deceased up so high are unrecoverable for the most part.. ironically a few of them are now even sighted as land marks

I love James Cameron. He is known for his wild temper but he has lived such an amazing life and has a fantastic and intelligent outlook on things. He is an innovator. Also, mad appreciation for Andersoon Cooper for actually letting people talk, he is just as swell. A perfect matchup to get the message of this tragedy across.

You can tell James Cameron feels a duty to educate people so the same mistakes aren’t made again. And don’t have “Titan” anywhere in a sea vessel name. Ocean takes it as challenge accepted.

Humans have no business down in the abyss of the deep dark ocean. There's just too many things that can go wrong, and it's not worth the high risk factor.

Everything’s about this submarine going missing just doesn’t make sense. The submarine going missing just seems like a perfect way to fake a death or get out of something happening. The submarine specs are laughable at most. The video game controller to control the sub, the 2 foot window to actually spectate stuff, the sub being basically locked from the outside, the lack of backup for communication or emergency. It just doesn’t make sense how under prepared they were for anything.
