Netflix explores the ‘Titan : The Oceangate Disaster’ in an in depth documentary releasing in June

On the coast of Newfoundland, Canada, a group of five volunteers lost their lives as a part of a deep sea experiment to explore the wrecked Titanic. June 2023 raised a lot of questions regarding private explorations and how a group of people vanished within a split second under the deep and mysterious ocean. 

The subversive named Titan carried five people including the Oceangate CEO Stockton Rush who invested time, energy and money almost to the level of obsession to achieve the deep sea exploration as a luxury tourism. When pieces of the vessel and debris found under the Northern Atlantic Ocean which imploded during descent taking the lives of all the five onboard. 

Netflix now banked on the footage, planning audio and video recording and the Oceangate employees who had skeptic thoughts on the planning stages and people in the know sharing about Stockton Rush. 

Streaming from 11 June, ‘Titan: The Oceangate Disaster’ documentary focuses on the planning process from years of Rush’s focus and quest to become a change maker. “When the Titan submersible went missing, I was horrified and mesmerized by the 24/7 news coverage and global social commentary – just like the rest of the world,” Marc Monroe, the director of the documentary tells Tudum

The ‘Titan’ during descent suffered a dooming and fatal implosion that is totally avoidable and is calculated only for the time and energy spent on the cons of such an unclear dive. “You can’t understand the decisions unless you understand the consequences of the decisions,” Monroe says. “(Rush) was trying to use carbon fiber … to do something it has never been asked to do before.”

The documentary showcases how novel and under planned the expedition was and the lackluster engineering behind building the capsule that at the end of the fatal day consumed the people.
