There are growing concerns about the safety of the Titan submersible that imploded, killing five people aboard. One man who went on the Titan said there were issues with the vessel during one of his voyages.
Even back then he says there were issues: the vessel lost communication an hour into the journey and a propulsion unit wasn't working. Neither was a mechanism that releases weights and allows the sub to rise back up.
Having gone through that the first time, Price said he agreed to go on another trip with Rush and Nargeolet the next day. This time, he was able to see the Titanic wreckage. The vessel suffered a catastrophic implosion, killing all five aboard, sometime after it submerged Sunday morning. It's not clear exactly when or where the implosion occurred, but a U.S. Navy acoustics system detected an "anomaly" Sunday that was likely the Titan's fatal implosion.
