Overview

• The US Coast Guard released footage showing the sound of the Titan submersible's implosion, described as a 'door slamming,' during its June 2023 descent to the Titanic wreck.
• Wendy Rush, wife of OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, is seen reacting to the implosion sound without realizing its significance, as delayed text messages from the sub misled the support crew into thinking the dive was proceeding normally.
• Investigators revealed the Titan's carbon fiber hull began delaminating during its 80th dive in 2022, marking the start of its structural failure, yet the sub continued operations despite warnings from experts.
• Netflix and the BBC are releasing documentaries featuring exclusive footage and whistleblower testimony, shedding light on OceanGate's decision-making and the events leading to the tragedy.
• The US Coast Guard’s Marine Board of Investigation continues its inquiry into the disaster, with a final report anticipated later this year.
