Sound of Titan sub's final moments was picked up from 900 miles away

This ominous noise is the 'suspected acoustic signature' of the Titan vessel's implosion on June 18, 2023, which killed Shahzada Dawood, 48, and his son Suleman, 19; British businessman Hamish Harding, 58; former French navy diver Paul-Henri Nargeolet, 77; and co-founder of the sub owner's...

All five crew members died as a result of the implosion: founder Stockton Rush, 61, French explorer Paul Henri Nargeolet, 77, British explorer Hamish Harding, 58, UK-based Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48 and his 19-year-old son Suleman.…..

I only feel sorry for the son. He never should have been allowed to board that death trap.

Some folks are insulated from the fact that this world can be a harsh place. Many of us are used to seeing the hazards around us, and avoiding them. When you have people and systems to insulate you from reality, e.g. chauffeurs, gated communities, you become less aware.

Most of us would have taken one look at that thing and said "no ******* way"

Watching Discovery's "Implosion: The Titanic Sub Disaster" right now.

Any good?

No spoilers!

Any good?

Yes! I would highly recommend watching it. Showed some of the Coast Guard testimony and footage from Josh Gates aborted attempt to cover the Titan for Exhibition Unknown and personal accounts from "mission specialists" (Read: People who paid OceanGate for the privilege of maybe dying in a carbon fiber sub).

No spoilers!

In the immortal words of Jim McCay: They're all gone.


And not to make light but I didn't find they made it particularly maudlin or tearjerking either. Everyone (save for the 19 year old who, IMO, had a reckless billionaire for a father) knew what they were getting into and had largely lived their lives. But I also feel like I now know all I need to know.

even less intact... here's how

When a submarine hull collapses, it moves inward at about 1,500mph (2,414km/h) - that's 2,200ft (671m) per second, says Dave Corley, a former US nuclear submarine officer.

The time required for complete collapse is about one millisecond, or one thousandth of a second.

A human brain responds instinctually to a stimulus at about 25 milliseconds, Mr Corley says.

Human rational response - from sensing to acting - is believed to be at best 150 milliseconds.

The air inside a sub has a fairly high concentration of hydrocarbon vapours.

When the hull collapses, the air auto-ignites and an explosion follows the initial rapid implosion, Mr Corley says.

Human bodies incinerate and are turned to ash and dust instantly.

at least they didn't feel it.

at least they didn't feel it.

They didn't even know it happened.

They went from existing to basically not existing faster than I can hit start/stop on my phone’s stopwatch.
