The international investigation into the implosion of the Titanic-bound submersible has broadened as questions mount over the craft’s safety
The announcement comes amid mounting questions about the Titan’s design, including the account of a submersible expert who said he warned the vessel’s CEO about safety concerns after a trip years ago. When Karl Stanley was aboard the Titan for an underseas excursion off the coast of the Bahamas in April 2019, he felt there was something wrong with the vessel when loud noises were heard.
“He never got into the nitty-gritty with me about exactly how many model tests he had done, exactly where they failed. But my impression was that he had done enough diligence that lives were not at risk,” Stanley said. ‘Baseless cries of, you are going to kill someone’ Stanley was not the only submersible expert to express his concerns.
