On the fateful morning of June 18, the Titan, an OceanGate submersible, descended into the ocean’s depths targeting the sunken remains of the Titanic, only to cease communication abruptly.

This tragic incident, where all five onboard perished, was determined by the U.S. Coast Guard to have been the result of a “catastrophic implosion.”

An underwater debris field, discovered by deep-sea robots on June 22, supported this conclusion, with officials later announcing that “presumed human remains” were sent to the U.S. Marine Board of Investigation for validation.

In the aftermath of this calamity, the AiTelly YouTube channel, known for its 3D engineering animations, saw an explanatory video on the Titan disaster surge in popularity. The video has accumulated over 5 million views since its release on July 1.

As per the video, the narrator explains: “Implosion is a process of destruction by collapsing inwards of the object itself… In case of the Titan submersible the implosion was caused due to very high hydro-static pressure of the surrounding water, which happened within a fraction of a millisecond.

“At the depth the Titanic rests there is around 5,600 pounds per square inch of pressure, that’s almost 400 times the pressure we experience on the surface. As the submersible is deep in the ocean it experiences the force on its surface due to the water pressure. When this force becomes larger than the force [the] hull can withstand the vessel implodes violently.”

In its animation, the channel depicts the submersible yielding to the overwhelming pressure and scattering debris around the Titanic wreck, just 1,600 feet away. Five distinct segments of the wreckage are visually represented on the seafloor.

Of interest, the video raises questions about the construction materials used for Titan. The vessel was predominantly composed of carbon fibers, known for being lighter than steel or titanium.

However, as the video notes, “The properties of carbon fibers for deep-sea applications are however not that well understood. It can crack and break suddenly.”

The lives tragically lost in this disaster included OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, French submersible pilot Paul-Henri Nargeolet, British adventurer Hamish Harding, and British-Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, accompanied by his 19-year-old son, Suleman Dawood.

OceanGate has since suspended “all exploration and commercial operations,” a terse update that can be found in the top left corner of their website. When approached by Newsweek, a spokesperson for OceanGate declined to comment.

In a display of respect for the tragedy’s victims, a couple withdrew their lawsuit against Stockton Rush for a refund of their deposit on a planned Titanic trip.

They issued a statement, saying: “Money is a driving force in our economy, but honor, respect, and dignity are more important to the human soul.”

The implosion appears to be so violent it is a wonder there are human remains left at all. We’ll see if and what the government eventually releases.
