I was a cave diver in the 1980s and 90’s. My colleagues used to call me the “deco queen” because I saw no need to try and exit the water as quickly as possible instead opting to build safety factors into my decompression schedules. We were doing deep cave dives over 300 feet deep. I was always the last to surface, to their jeers and derision. They would already have all their gear stowed and were changed into street clothes when I was still climbing out of the water. I was also the only one who never suffered from decompression sickness. Never let anyone pressure you into cutting safety corners.

As a general rule u should question everything....but when an expert in their field (and u are not) u should probably listen to them. As a result an actual innocent was lost, the estranged son who didn't even want to be there. The only real victim. As the others were rich enough to know better, there is a reason super elites don't drive cheap plastic cars like progressives and their Tesla's, they drive thicc tanky suvs or limos that tend to be durable, equivalent to a submarine not submersible. They should have watched the movie the meg or hired James Cameron's designers for his submersible. But they chose to cut corners. This is the hubris of the elites. They didn't know they was being skimped on. Stockton had done to them what they probably did to others to become top dawgs to begin with. Step on others to get to the top, cut corners and sue into oblivion.

I have a mechanical engineering degree & Stockton Rush had an aerospacial engineering degree, so I know we both studied fatigue failure, so after watching this video, I'm still baffled how Stocton Rush wasn't doing testing to retire his sub before fatigue failure. It's gross negligence.

One could argue that the experience was definitely life-changing

Nobody is talking about the fact the Titian was sinking much faster than normal. The Skylark even asked, “Do you need to adjust velocity?” The Titian was unquestionably heavy that day. They even had to drop the frame, but the ascent was still to slow to surface any time soon. It was doomed at this point, but why was it heavy? They dragged it for almost three days on a small raft exposed to rough seas and plenty of salt water. Could the carbon fiber hull absorbed many pounds of water? They didn’t weigh the sub to be sure it was on weight? The Titian was far too heavy that day, and nobody is talking about why!

Why go with tried and true spherical pressure chambers when we could try something totally new and unproven? This seems like a field where tried and true is gonna be much better than the bleeding edge of technology Forgive my lack of deep sea knowledge but theoretically couldn't Oceangate have just made a larger and thicker titanium sphere to fit a couple of passengers, instead of a carbon fiber tube? I understand it would've been substantially larger and more expensive but I think the target clientele would've paid more. All you've gotta tell a billionaire is that they could be in the record books or go where only a few have gone and they'll spend a fortune! Victor Vescovo spent almost $50M to be the first to the five deeps, wild lol I remember that Victor Vescovo used the largest pressure simulating machine (in the world) in Russia to certify his ship and it only barely fit. I think he went to Challenger Deep like 15 times without issue along with countless other dives before selling his CERTIFIED submersible. So theoretically there would be no way to test the larger sphere... oh wait maybe there is! Why not just lower it to 20% deeper than the deepest they ever plan to dive with no people in it. Why not do this ten times? You'd think if your gonna put your own @$$ in the thing maybe Stockton would've done a failure test before risking lives.

There was a section on the compression of rocks, how when the force is taken off them they rebound somewhat but not back to the original position. The same with repeated compressions, until they finally shatter. Rocks are a material, a hard material, so similar physics would have been happening to the material the submersible was made from. Rush should have learnt about rocks, and had rocks on his mind instead of rocks in his head.

His unchecked hubris was seriously second to none - many people said he was actually a very intelligent engineer and he did get a BS from Princeton, no less (though it wasn't a Masters to be fair), but him being the definition of arrogant is what killed him and his passengers on board that must have mistaken his brash confidence and salesmanship with safety. His obsession with being some kind of maverick trailblazer, rather than just doing his due diligence, and maybe just going with already well tested materials like titanium, etc., is what killed him and the rest. What's been crazy to me about this whole incident is learning about the extreme physics of what occurs during an implosion at that depth: the immense pressure and sheer weight of millions of tons of water, suddenly compressing what amounts of an incredibly tiny bubble of gas, will lead to a near instantaneous explosion/implosion, much like a piston in a vehicle engine from the compression - to the point that in a few milliseconds, all that air became momentarily _hotter than the surface of the sun_ in a bubble that oscillated many times per second, due to the conflicting forces of the super-heated gas wanting to expand versus the millions of tons of water pressing inward. Absolutely wild and one can only hope they didn't know what was coming, since they literally weren't capable of registering any pain or even awareness of the actual implosion that killed them all.

Yes, the paradoxical idiom "I wouldn't be caught dead doing that" absolutely holds for going down there in the Titan, or even a more scientifically sound and safety-checked submersible. Due to the chaotic deep sea currents down there, a journalist did a segment talking about the time he went down there in a much safer research submersible, and the currents still pushed them into one of the Titanic's propellers, where they were _stuck for almost an hour._ It was only the skill of their pilot that saved them, by somehow finally getting them unwedged. They also did have communication as opposed to the Titan, because they were using an actual, few km long physical line to the mission's ship on the surface. Even in the safest, most highly-regarded and quadruple safety checked submersible, the simple knowledge of literally millions of tons of water on top of me, and a two plus hour trip just to get back to the surface is more than enough for me to never do something like this. You literally couldn't pay me to do it, whereas these people had to pay a few year's worth of the average household income in the US for the "privilege" of going down in the implosion timebomb that was the Titan.

Probably the best summary of this tragic event I’ve seen.

“Wings of wax” keeps coming to mind.

Interviewer did a great job posing questions to the man at the end. He’s beyond delusional

The co-founder of OceanGate (who since left the company ten years ago) is either in severe denial or is trying to justify his involvement in the company and the company’s appalling actions. It was infuriating to hear him answer the reporter’s questions, as if OceanGate and Stockton were completely innocent and the company’s prized vessel hadn’t just killed five human beings.

He was reckless, but certainly not wreckless.

The fact that SR himself went down in the submersible sent the message to his clients that this was a safe submarine. SR knew this was dangerous which makes him both suicidal and homicidal.

I just don’t know. I keep trying to figure him out and I think perhaps his narcissism was so strong that it wouldn’t allow him to believe that anything could ever happen to challenge his superiority. I struggle to understand. I struggle to see if a narcissist ( and I am very intimately acquainted with one…my mother) can really fathom the idea of their own mortality and fragility.

His dead clients ignored the warnings too. I’m not a submarine guy and I knew that sub was ridiculously unsafe, so they had to have known there was 36 signatures from professionals who said it was a trap

This reminds me of that movie from the 80's where the kids build the space ship

He was always right in his mind. Period. No advice or suggestion could enter the stubbornness within him.
