46 people have successfully made it down there to the Titanic on this vessel??
Frank Owen, a submarine search and rescue expert, said the estimated 96-hour oxygen supply is a useful “target” for searchers, but is only based on a “nominal amount of consumption." Owen said the diver on board the Titan would likely be advising passengers to “do anything to reduce your metabolic levels so that you can actually extend this."

Titan’s passengers were likely enduring extremely difficult conditions, including temperatures just above freezing, said Jeff Karson, a professor emeritus of earth and environmental sciences at Syracuse University.

“I am sure it is horrible down there,” Karson said. “It is like being in a snow cave and hypothermia is a real danger.”

At least 46 people successfully traveled on OceanGate’s submersible to the Titanic wreck site in 2021 and 2022, according to letters the company filed with a U.S. District Court in Norfolk, Virginia, that oversees matters involving the Titanic shipwreck.

But documents show that OceanGate had been warned there might be catastrophic safety problems posed by the way the experimental vessel was developed.

David Lochridge, OceanGate’s director of marine operations, said in a 2018 lawsuit that the company’s testing and certification was insufficient and would “subject passengers to potential extreme danger in an experimental submersible.”

The company insisted that Lochridge was “not an engineer and was not hired or asked to perform engineering services on the Titan.” The firm also says the vessel under development was a prototype, not the now-missing Titan.

This story is being used as a huge distraction, being pumped pumped pumped.

I know most are probably aware of this but it is what it is

I think I remember watching some movie where a dude inhaled a liquid into his lungs and breathed that way instead of using air. Like when we were still in our momma's bellies.

It let him dive deeper because his lung wouldn't collapse.
The Abyss?

This is all set up for a movie deal imo.

The biggest movie of the summer next year will be about the dramatic rescue of the crew.

You signed “the waiver”, and there’s a risk to going into the sea in a submersible ship
I hope they get rescued, but I saw where they were looking at a 7,600 mile area?

If they add a hottie to the crew and show some boobages, I'm in.

FFS, is it any surprise that this voyage turned into a disaster?
There are some vids outlining all the hiring mistakes this ceo made one of the broads hired instead of a more competent experienced guy was busy making tik toks at drag shows with her co worker. One of the guys they fired said he saw VISIBLE weaknesses on the carbon fiber they used.

Sounds like they might have found some carbon fiber debris.

The vessel is out of oxygen.
