Sub engineers consider the material too lightweight to withstand the unforgiving pressure at that ocean depth.īut Rush insisted on using carbon fibre because it would allow OceanGate to accommodate more passengers on the Titan. The Titan’s hull is made of carbon fibre, a material considered to be too lightweight to withstand the pressure in the depths of the ocean. OceanGate's Titan was the only commercial submersible made of carbon fibre. Stanley is convinced the noise was the carbon fibre hull slowly cracking. "It's a heck of a sound to hear when you're that far under the ocean in a craft that has only been down that deep once before," he said. During his dive, he said there was gunshot-like banging every three-to-four minutes. Stanley had the opportunity to travel on the Titan on a test dive in the Bahamas in 2019. "And who was the last person to murder two billionaires at once and have them pay for the privilege?" "Rush quite literally and figuratively went out with the biggest bang in human history that you could go out with," Stanley told Amelia Adams. He said there were gunshot sounds every few minutes.
