Coast Guard: Titan submersible deaths were "preventable" on doomed trip to Titanic

Video Description

The Coast Guard’s report on the Titan submersible disaster that killed five on the way to the Titanic said Tuesday the implosion was “preventable.” The Coast Guard convened its highest level of investigation in the aftermath of the 2023 implosion off Canada. The disappearance of the Titan led to a search that grabbed worldwide attention. The Coast Guard hearings were held in Charleston, South Carolina. There were no survivors. The Titan was owned by OceanGate, a private company based in Washington state. The operator of the submersible, OceanGate head Stockton Rush, was among the five on board who died. The submersible disaster has led to lawsuits and calls for tighter regulation of the developing private deep sea expedition industry.
