James Cameron had 'no doubt' a catastrophic event had occurred after the Titan submersible lost contact. The Canadian filmmaker has made the dive to the TIitanic 33 times.
"felt in [his] bones" that an"extreme catastrophic event" had happened to the Titan submersible as soon as he heard it had lost contact.
Cameron, who has traveled to the Titanic wreckage himself 33 times, said he had"no doubt" the sub was"gone" once he heard the submersible had lost contact 1 hour and 45 minutes into its dive to view the remnants of the cruise liner.revealed Thursday that a remotely operated vehicle found a"debris field" near the wreckage, where the crew of five explorers had been heading before losing contact.
"For the sub’s electronics to fail and its communication system to fail, and its tracking transponder to fail simultaneously – sub’s gone," Cameron told the BBC."For me, there was no doubt. I knew that sub was sitting exactly underneath its last known depth and position, and that’s exactly where they found it. There was no search. When they finally got an ROV down there that could make the depth, they found it within hours. Probably within minutes.
Cameron, who has long been a deep-sea explorer, said the media coverage of how much oxygen was left inside the submersible created a"prolonged and nightmarish charade." "That was just a cruel, slow turn of the screw for four days as far as I’m concerned," he added."Because I knew the truth on Monday morning.""I thought it was a horrible idea. I wish I'd spoken up, but I assumed somebody was smarter than me, you know, because I never experimented with that technology, but it just sounded bad on its face," Cameron told Reuters in an interview.on Thursday after it was revealed the Coast Guard had found parts of the submersible.
