OceanGate Titan Sub Debris Video Shows How It Imploded

so let's take a look at this first video here so this was probably taken right after they got to the bottom of the ocean floor now you can see some debris those little black pieces there that's probably from the Titan and there it is coming into view this is you're looking at the AFT portion of it so this is the whole outside shell with the with all the controls on it and everything and I'll show you in a second where that is on the actual you Titan craft so it's just amazing how Eerie this must

have been for them to discover this it's like my heart would just fall through my stomach and I I would gasp because you can see what this means because they thought they were going down there to rescue them maybe they were just sitting on the bottom of the ocean floor well it was on the bottom of the ocean floor but it was in pieces and then if you look up here you can see this looks like another part of it up here I don't know why they're not zooming in on it or getting closer to

it and this is the end of the first clip right here so I don't know why in the world they didn't show more of this why are they breaking it up into basically a one minute long clip so as you recall here's one of those engineering drawings showing the glass fiber shell on the back end of it the tail end and there's what the Ocean Gate Titan submarine looked like in better times with the Ocean Gate logo visible on it now I want to show you a much better 3D modeling rendering of the Titan sub

and I'll show you exactly where that is on the submersible now if you remember the video I showed you last year showing you Amber's video from aset Industries she does incredible 3D renderings and here she shows you the outline of the the whole Titan submersible and there it is on that aft section see with the cage and all that that's the part that we were looking at on the ocean bottom there so she does an incredible job make sure you check the link in the video description below that shows you her entire video but you

can see there she pointed to exactly where it came from on that tail section we'll analyze more of the underwater video in a minute I just wanted to show you this here is the Rover that discovered the Titan right there on the bottom of the ocean floor this is called the pelagic Odus 6K or the 6000 ROV remote controlled Rover and so they lower this unmanned thing into the water and of course there's the section of the Titan that was pulled off of the deck of the Polar Prince so it's eie to think that the

polar Prince or originally a few days ago just brought these men out there for a good time to go down and dive the Titanic and now the same po Prince ship is bringing back the parts of their busted up Titan submersible kind of like JFK with Air Force One how Air Force One Flew him out to Dallas and then flew his body back in a coffin let's check out the detail on the orientation here so I slowed it down 8X or so and as we come around the back side of it here yeah mean you

can see this thing is really mostly intact even the strap is still on it but here as you look on the back edge of it you can see the Ocean Gate logo the Titan is just coming into view there so you know this would just be so heartbreaking if you're the operator of this roov to see this on your screen I would just be totally freaking out at this point but you can see that the entire aft end of the Ocean Gate Titan submersible is basically kind of standing up cone upwards you know the Tail

land up on the bottom of the ocean floor there and it's 330 M off of the bow of the Titanic so they were actually very close in fact in actuality they did make it down to the bottom of the Titanic site but unfortunately they were not around to be able to enjoy it just about an hour ago the Coast Guard released a second video for us so let's take a look at this okay now they gave us this second video here which looks like it was taken probably about an hour and a half later now

this right here that looks like the viewport to me and it looks like it's in pretty good shape I don't think that's the titanium Dome because it would be bigger like this over here this is the titanium Dome there you can see the ring and this looks like a huge chunk of the 5 in thick carbon fiber Hall still attached to this part of it so it was not a clean Shear off of there as you can see so during the implosion it looks like the titanium cone was blown right off and then it just

sank further down to the bottom that was a laser beam you saw the ROV just shoot out so they can get the distance from it so they can tell what what it is they're looking at and maybe try to judge the size of it you know without anything reference to it you can't really tell the size but there you can see that 5 in thickness of the carbon fiber Hall there and I'm frankly surprised that you even have this big of a chunk because I thought with an implosion that all of those pieces would have

been blown over everywhere and there's your you know what at this point I still can't tell if that's the other titanium Dome or if it's the the window you just don't have enough good clean white light on it and they didn't get it close up and you didn't get close up to see uh with a reference of size either so they're coming back over here to it and it looks like that it's got maybe some sand yeah maybe that is the other titanium Dome so it's a little hard to tell so let us know in

the comments what you think that is down below so what I just showed you was the full size so now what I did was zoom in here just to this part I want to get a closer look to try to determine if that's the titanium ring and I think it is you can almost see the hole there where the port window is supposed to go the acrylic Port so if that's the case it looks like the carbon fiber hole was just ripped completely cleanly off of the front end and then as you can see from

this photo right here this shows you the outside of the cylindrical capsule of the Titan and how it is mated to those Rings connecting it to the titanium Dome so you might remember from seeing some of the previous videos in the past how they applied it with that kind of peanut butter paste that's what they're calling it you know that kind of famous it's look like peanut butter it goes on like peanut butter and so that was the adhesive that they used to connect the Titans cylindrical cabin to the titanium domes it's the glue that

holding the family together and we want to make sure it's right the glue is very thick so it's not like Elmer's Glue it's like uh peanut butter all things and where is the ring at hopefully they will eventually get around are giving us video showing the Rings lying on the bottom of the floor because here you saw them hoisting it up there and it looks picked clean like there's no carbon fiber on it at all take a look again here when they were gluing together the titanium ends onto the carbon fiber cylinder there's two things

I'm seeing here number one look at this technician's hands I don't know why he's not wearing gloves this should be a reasonably sterile environment and you can see now he's putting his hand on the stupid titanium ring now let's just contaminate that some more with our with our fingerprints and our oils from our hands and then one other thing that you really need to consider here is these titanium rings before you put any type of adhesive on there how is adhesive going to stick onto a good shiny smooth metal so what I don't see here

and I didn't even hear the mention is did they bother to do any kind of abrasion or sanding on there or do an acid etch or something to rough up that surface to give the adhesive of something to just cling onto that's what you're missing here and so I think that probably explains why like I've showed you in the in some of our previous videos when they pulled up some of the debris from the bottom of the ocean floor why the titanium rings are smooth and it looks like they were 100% picked clean of any

of the carbon fiber material not even little chunks that might have been left glued that glue over time I think with the compression cylinder constantly under compression and expansion as it goes down and comes back up and you get all of this cyclic fatigue going I think also that that adhesive likely just cleanly stripped itself right off of those titanium rings now coming back a few yards away to the other section here so this does look like it's the AF titanium Dome and you can tell it's still almost intact it didn't quite come completely separated

off there so it looks like the glue sort of held on a little bit there and it's not surprising because all of the attachments and everything on there likely cushioned the effects of the implosion and prevented it from just blowing into a million pieces but you mean look at the size of the pieces of the black carbon fiber all over the ocean floor so it gives you an idea as to how big of uh size that the implosion destroyed the pieces and reduced them to it looks like there aren't any parts down there there there

any bigger than say a foot you know from the carbon fiber standpoint and then if we go back to the asan industry 3D model here Amber put together a diagram showing all of the parts that were brought up that we saw them brought up that day in St John's newfinland on the coast guard station and here's where all of the different parts came from on the Ocean Gate Titan submersible and also here in her 3D rendering she shows how the carbon fiber cylinder was glued onto the ring and so the red line there represents the

glue and you can see how the carbon fiber is connected in there so many of the theories you've heard probably bouncing around from different Engineers are that you know the pressure of constantly going up and down to the Titanic over uh several trips you can see what happens here the pressure tends to want to try to allow a little bit of water to sneak in through those red lines and if this cycle happens enough times and combined with the delamination of the individual carbon fiber layers and stuff well this is what happens the result is

of course what we now know to be history and the implosion of the Ocean Gate Titan submarine now the US ghost card has started their public hearings into the investigation of the Ocean Gate Titan submersible implosion and that started this week so I've already been listening to several days in a row of nonstop 8:00 in the morning till 4:5 in the afternoon of testimony and so I'll be doing videos showing you know just the most kind of juiciest details for you some of the surprising findings and anything that's important and all of the other details

that are pertinent to this investigation and if this is your first time here on the channel and you haven't seen our videos on the analysis of the Titan implosion from last year man are you missing out so make sure you check out these videos here and binge watch and get caught up thanks for joining us and we'll see you on the next one
