Officials said five major pieces were detected amid the debris around the Titanic site.

Among them, a nose cone, outside the pressure hull, and a larger debris field.

Let’s hope the debris didn’t pollute the wreck area

I still don’t understood why if they were charging Ł200,000 per person.. so a huge amount of money each trip ..

Why on Earth was it cobbled together on the cheap ??


It makes no sense .

Funny how over 100 refugees died the other week from one boat, but that only got about 6 hours news time.

Imploding is a much "better" (for want of a better word) way to go than slowly suffocating to death which was the alternative. They probably didn't know much about what happened considering the pressure down there... RIP to them.

Hopefully this is a lesson to everyone not to do anything like this. Just ridiculously dangerous and flawed.

Sad to hear the son didnt want to go , his father convinced him. So sad but i think the outcome will be the vessel was unfit for purpose. It went down without proper checks and every time it went down it got weaker , it was totally not up to it.

Greed….despite all the forms they were made to sign this company will be sued left right and centre…
It’s tragic…but the 19 year old must have trusted his father and his life has been cut short.

Amazon has begun moderating the reviews section of the now infamous games controller used to control the missing Titan sub.

As news of the missing sub spread earlier this week, bad taste reviews began to appear on the shopping giant’s page for the Logitech F710 controller.

Users posted about the controller "not being good at steering a submarine" and "losing signal in the ocean".

Before the fate of the crew aboard the sub became clear, the posts received hundreds of approvals from other shoppers and some were made into viral TikTok videos.

Amazon has started deleting the reviews as it’s understood they do not comply with community guidelines.

The Logitech F710 controller is a popular games console accessory which wirelessly connects to gaming consoles and PCs.

The relatively cheap Ł33 ($42) controller has become a focal point of the technology on the Titan since videos of the company CEO using it were posted online.

This makes sense now.
The news needs to stop comparing the pressure to weight.
Two completely different things
They keep saying how it’s like 1000 elephants on top of you or 1 Eiffel tower.

Until the facilitating criminal gangs are stopped, migrants will be constantly dying while trying to cross bodies of water.

migrants dying in boats happens every week. The sub was a one off event. That's the difference

Pretty much. Drawing comparisons is pretty pointless really.

I'd love to explore the Titanic tbh

When that guy on the C5 thing last night was showing pictures from his dive, my first thought was, how could you leave those dinner plates?! I'd take one and eat every meal off it.

The ocean is a big place. All sorts of weird noises. If you've got a stream of sounds, you can Rorschach your way into thinking they include almost anything.

I think the tapping was Jack banging some random ghost broad.

was it metal fatigue? caused by bad maintenance


or something more sinister, a bomb?



i really watch too much Air Crash Investigation, i'm really in my own investigators mood now


if i were one of those investigators i wanna take a look at the maintenance logs of the vessel, because this one made more trips down there
