Titan submarine implosion
The five passengers aboard the tourist submarine were confirmed dead on June 22 after his boat suffered a “catastrophic implosion”. The tail cone of the submarine was found approximately 1,600 feet off the bow of the Titanic wreck after a five-day search operation in the North Atlantic Ocean.
Stockton Rush, the ship’s pilot and founder and CEO of OceaGate, the company that managed the voyage, reportedly advised Titan passengers to wear thick socks and a cap because it would get colder as the ship lowered into the ocean and warned them that the journey would be dark but there was the chance to glimpse bioluminescent creatures.
He also advised passengers to upload some of their favorite songs to their phone to share with others on a bluetooth speaker, the British outlet writes.
The five components of the late Titan are Stockton Rush, British millionaire Hamish Harding, French explorer and submarine pilot Paul-Henri Nargeolet, and the two Pakistani nationals: 19-year-old Suleman Dawooh and his father Shahzada Dawood.
