I'd respectfully say that Bob Ballard's THE expert - it was him and Jean-Louis Michel who found the wreck of the Titanic in the first place, and Ballard *also* found the wrecks of the US submarines Scorpion and Thresher, the Bismarck, JFK's PT 109, the Lusitania, and the Yorktown, just to name a few. He's the pioneer of deep sea archaeology, and he's also done some pretty incredible research on the undersea volcanoes of the mid-oceanic ridge. I'm not putting down James Cameron's achievements in any way; no one can argue that he's not an incredible deep sea explorer and engineer, and the best underwater filmmaker of all time. I'm just saying that Cameron wouldn't have been able to dive the Titanic in the 90's if Ballard hadn't found it in the 80's. They're both amazing, and deserving of huge respect, unlike the dead CEO on the ocean floor with his failed sub.

As a Canadian, I've always been proud of James Cameron for one of my most favorite movies to date. But as an engineer and the son of an aviation safety inspector, he just increased my respect for him ten fold. His understanding of engineering principles and safety standards is quite respectable. He certainly deserves an honorary engineering degree for pushing the boundary of science while keeping safety in mind. That is the ethics of a true engineer.

Titanic didnt sank because of negligence, thats a myth, along side many myth's cameron used in his movie, that after all this years one would have though that he had learned something about the history of the ship. The Titanic wasnt going at full speed that night, murdoch didnt kill himself after shooting passengers, the ship didnt have enough boats because they were not lifeboats that concept didnt exist back then until that night, third class passengers were not locked down so the first class could evacuate first.... are just some of the myths he spread in his movie. And no Ismay didnt preasure the captain to breake any speed record, that woudl have been imposible to breake even if the ship had been traveling at full speed the whole time, since the competition the Lusitania and Mauretania were lighter, smaller, and 4 engines each.

The interviewer kind of dropped the ball here. James dropped a nugget that NO OTHER news outlet has picked up on that I have seen which was that they had indeed dropped their weight and were on the way back up. That’s crucial information which means their hull health monitoring did alert them but it was way too late. That was what the engineer warned OceanGate about before they fired him for being a whistleblower. He told them that their RTM hull system would only give them seconds of warning before an implosion and they didn’t listen.

@Randomequestrian-pm4hl

Жыл бұрын

Well spotted - I saw an indirect reference to this elsewhere, with the implosion mentioned as during ASCENT; I thought at first it was a slip of the tongue and the interviewee meant to say descent. Then I thought a bit more. Then I thought about the previous interviews with the designer of the Titan; and the delay in reporting the craft missing, and the media coverage of signage at the Titan base being removed. And that the mothership was surely monitoring and would have heard the implosion on sonar... the tracks of gross negligence can never be covered. What a horrible, needless tragedy.

Good point. It sounds like Cameron, being a member of the community, knows that they knew they were in trouble and headed up. I’d speculate that the mothership not reporting them “missing“ for nine hours was likely the result of them thinking they were “on their way up“. While the implosion certainly killed everyone instantly, they may have known for a few minutes that they were in trouble, but once the hull started to yield, it was just too late.

He is also famous for his perfectionism and leaves nothing to 'luck', as the CEO of OceanGate unfortunately did. Cameron always reminded me of my father, who is an outstanding theoretical physicist and computer scientist who, among other things, deals with artificial intelligence, and who is also a perfectionist with a passion for mechanics, building vehicles, etc. So I understand many things that are being discussed here but it's so nice to listen to someone eloquent with deep knowledge of the subject. It was a great analysis. Thank you and best regards from Poland!

@notexpatjoe I respectfully DISAGREE with you. I don't deny the need of studies, but Albert Einstein was also called an idiot by his teachers. Same thing about many other inventors. They "think" differently. A framed piece of paper hung on a wall, "honorary" titles, or "Academia" does not make "experts" neither. Those are just a 1st step. Also, a doctor's title does not make a good surgeon, only EXPERIENCE and more studies do. What makes an expert is your dedication, and mostly HANDS ON and well-studied (reasonable) experiments. I'd wish I have half of Cameron's brains...

If you do some research you’d find that most of the blame goes to Cameron for pushing his crew and cast too far and going way over budget with not enough time. He is entirely to blame and he also cut corners and skipped safety, and it could’ve lead to deaths. I don’t know if you know how acid works but the pH of a pool wasn’t checked after it was overloaded with chlorine, very unlikely to do more than severely injure someone but that is still absolutely inexcusable and if you were the actor you would probably sue him and his company for their lack of safety precautions

James Cameron's analysis was excellent. The ability of the tourist sub’s hull design to withstand such depths was questioned in a 2018 lawsuit filed by OceanGate’s former director of marine operations, David Lochridge, who said he was fired after he raised safety concerns about the vessel. The same happened when Alexander Carlysle, a designer at Harland and Wolf, raised concerns about the inadequate number of lifeboats on Titanic. His concerns were ignored and he resigned. I read that their means of communication was a play station. I don't think that naming this submersible Titan was a very good idea - it is 2 letters short of the name Titanic. In an interview Stockton Rush said that the Titan was pretty much invulnerable; the interviewer replied that this was pretty much the same thing they said about Titanic. Stockton Rush replied with a yes. How prophetic. If Mr. Rush had himself not died then he would have had a lot to answer for. It seems that history has repeated itself - these people put money before safety and chose to ignore the advice of knowledgeable people.

After high school, Cameron enrolled at Fullerton College, a community college in 1973 to study physics. He switched subjects to English, but left the college at the end of 1974. He worked odd jobs, including as a truck driver and a janitor, but wrote in his free time. During this period, he learned about special effects by reading other students' work on "optical printing, or front screen projection, or dye transfers, anything that related to film technology" at the library. After the excitement of seeing Star Wars in 1977, Cameron quit his job as a truck driver to enter the film industry.

As an engineer I had some serious red flags about the construction of the hull. Different materials expand and contract at different rates. Having the tube carbon fiber and the end piece’s titanium would be at least a 2mm difference. That’s enough to weaken the glue bond and possibly could start a crack at the ends in the carbon fiber. Each dive weakened it even more. Carbon fiber doesn’t like to flex, it shatters. It wouldn’t be my choice for these type of conditions. It will be interesting when they recover the cameras to see what really happened.

I'm a structural engineer and I agree with James Cameron. Designing a submarine out of composite is very dangerous. Composites do not do well under compressive loads (such as being submerged deep under water). Furthermore, you will have significant corrosion issues if in contact with water overtime. Failure of composites are sudden and catastrophic, unlike metallic failure. They should have designed it out of metallic, just as James Cameron suggested. My thoughts and prayers to the families.

Look at spaceX they've ditched carbon fiber for stainless steel because stainless steel is actually stronger in situations with extreme temperatures and is much more forgiving and tolerant of small defects and fatigue.

James Cameron broke this down well. I think the media will is shining a spotlight on it so it’s a temporary big deal, but anytime you go flying or diving it Carrie’s a degree of risk and the higher or deeper you go, the further the risk. It seems like the kind of venture that requires absolute scrutiny of the company pricing these services. That’s not to say the operator doesn’t have blame here, but you’re rolling the dice.

This day and age waivers don’t mean anything.

I dont think anybody would, the dude saw dollar signs at 750K for 8 hours of work to further his business probably sounded pretty good only difference it was extremely dangerous work probably the most dangerous on the planet & he was completely unprepared clouded by arrogance & money!

He rented the Russian Submersibles MIR 1 and MIR 2 for the Titanic and Bismarck because he ran the numbers for a homemade submersible and they wouldn't be sound enough for proper functionality. These machines have to be precise down to the last decimal otherwise you are risking a catastrophic failure. You can't cut corners on this stuff or you die. Millionaires bleed like every other person does, they need to stop thinking they're indestructible.

Well stated. WOW!!

The thought that an indication from the crack monitoring system, warned them even for a second or two, knowing that the hull is going to fail and they released the weights trying to resurface, is haunting me.

As a professional oceanographer who has been at great depths, this strikes home. The finding of the Titanic is what inspired me to do what I do. James Cameron and Bob Ballard are epic people and in my opinion, genius. I have a saying: "Never put anything into the ocean which you are not prepared to lose". My prayers and sympathy are with the families of those lost. A catastrophic implosion at those depths may be one of the quickest ways to meet God.

@@HariKrishnan-pf1ec Never. It is incredible, but remotely operated is what we do. It is VASTLY easier to put a remotely operated vehicle down which does not rely on human support systems. That said, Bob Ballard is correct. We've through the decades never had a loss like this, despite thousands of deep dives. The mix of hull materials was a recipe for failure. It will delaminate after successive dives. Now that you ask... absolutely I would do it again.

Wow that’s an awesome field to get into! Is there any hope to find their remains? James Cameron is extremely careful with how he handled filming the movie. It seems to be many people giving different opinions.

Two tragedy, two ignorant captains, same place, same consequences...

They chose the caption of the titanic because he sucked.. nd it wasn't the titanic that sank.. there's a documentary about it.. nd how there was another ship that was supposed to be close by to receive the distress call nd save everyone.. but everything went bad.. if u look at the ship at the bottom of the Atlantic to it's twinish ship the portholes are different as well as under the name titanic on the hull gives the ships actual name.. it was purely for insurance but went horribly wrong

I'd say more like arrogant not ignorant, they knew of the risks but went on anyway.

@7:52: _”This ocean gate sub had sensors to give them warning if the hull was starting to crack.”_ With carbon fiber, there’s very little safety factor between a stress fracture and total implosion. Those sensors may give you a few seconds, or minute at most, warning, before you’re dead.

What I find so fascinating about this whole thing is that this is our Titanic incident of the 21st century, just because of the fact that both happened for the same reason and are wrecks in the same location, with 5 additional people. While the whole thing is sad it's interesting to be alive in historical moments like this. No one would've ever guess the odds of something like this happening.

James Cameron gives a tactful and 100% accurate analysis.

CONSTANT DISTRACTIONS for the masses.... never forget that the 2nd amendment is currently being infringed upon,

James Cameron pulls an A+ again with this explaination. Probably gave a better hands on experience explaination than other experts.

Mr. Cameron was incredibly interesting to listen to. I had no idea that he’d designed his submersible to the Mariana Trench.

Literally was waiting for him to say something. Him and Robert Ballard are the only people who have been there and know it so well.

Wow, so they were fully aware that the death trap was failing and actively trying to surfaceas fast as possible, must have been pure terror right before that implosion. James Cameron the GOAT.

@theviewbot another person in the same circle as ph has said it's been rumored/ maybe known the titan sent an abort mission to the comms in a uk interview today as well and another guy in the sub diving community told MSNBC there was the sound of an implosion heard not long after communication stopped. I'd say oceangate waiting 8 hours to tell the coast guard anything was wrong is suspicious and they probably knew all along the submersible was gone

Everyone knows James as a producer but hes my favorite explorer. I put him just below armstrong. Hes given more of himself to science and engineering than movies. hes a legend!

Such as tragedy at the loss of precious life rest in eternal peace you five guy's who lost their lives and my condolences to their poor families ❤❤❤❤❤

It amazes me that James did pay attention to all the details even in sub's technical design while the eng director and chief eng from Oceangate believes in hand gluing the carbon hull and titanium parts
