Titan sub safety practices 'critically flawed' and implosion 'preventable', report finds | ITV News

OceanGate’s Titan submersible expedition was "critically flawed" and its implosion "preventable", a US Coast Guard investigation report has concluded.

Five people – including British adventurer Hamish Harding and father and son Shahzada and Suleman Dawood – died on the maiden voyage of the submarine in June 2023.

The chief executive of tour operator OceanGate Expeditions, Stockton Rush, and Titanic historian and French national Paul-Henri Nargeolet, were also killed in the incident.
