Titanic director James Cameron — who has visited the wreck site 33 times — breaks his silence on the Titan Submersible disaster.
who has visited the wreckage more than 30 times — has responded to the Titan submersible disaster.
On Thursday, June 22, four days after the underwater vessel went missing during a tour of the Titanic site in the Northern Atlantic Ocean, OceanGate announced that all five passengers were believed to be dead. First Coast Guard District commandersaid the debris found off the Canada coast is consistent with a “catastrophic implosion” of the submersible.
“A number of the top players in the deep submergence engineering community even wrote letters to the company, saying that what they were doing was too experimental to carry passengers and that it needed to be certified,” Cameron — who is a diving expert and was good friends with Titan passenger Paul-Henri Nargeolet — noted.
“For us, it’s a very similar tragedy where warnings went unheeded,” he continued. “To take place at the same exact site with all the diving that’s going on all around the world, I think it’s just astonishing. It’s really quite surreal.”Cameron went on to mourn his friend “PH,” calling the French explorer a “legendary submersible dive pilot” who he had known for 25 years. “For him to have died tragically in this way is almost impossible for me to process,” the Canada native said.
