'Right now, I would go again, I would go again. I'm not frightened of that.'
ROCHESTER, N.Y. – A recent passenger in the same Titan submersible that imploded Sunday said he lost two friends in the accident.. Despite the recent tragedy, he said he would take a trip in a similar vessel again.
“I immediately changed my focus to taking solace in that they don’t even know what happened on board,” Curran said of the tragedy. “This happened so fast that I don’t even think that they were even consciously aware that the sub had imploded. They just were gone.” “The Titan is cramped, but it’s reasonably comfortable,” Curran said. “There is a padded floor, kind of a rubber pad, and it can accommodate five. You sit on the floor. Imagine it’s a cylinder and the floor is about a quarter of the way up, it’s comfortable to lean up against the carbon fiber pressure vessel.”“It’s a long descent, two and a half hours, and totally dark, completely dark for the descent until you turn on the external light to the sub when you get to the bottom,” Curran said.
