YouTube Star’s Footage Reveals Control Issues in Titan Submarine Before Disappearance

Unexpected guest onboard the Titan

In a shocking revelation, a YouTube star, who goes by the name ‘Aqua Explorer,’ had the rare opportunity to ride the Titan sub just days before the infamous craft disappeared underwater. This comes as a surprise since the expedition was strictly confidential and necessitated limited passengers for safety reasons. The newly discovered footage displays the YouTube star documenting the dive, including a candid discussion about control issues with the brains of the Titan sub.

Revelation of technical glitches

During the footage, OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush can be heard conversing with a member of his engineering team about the concerns they were having with the functioning of the “brains” of the Titan. This conversation reveals a glitch in the sub’s control system that might have hindered its ability to maneuver underwater. However, the depth of the problem was not disclosed at the time.

The scope and significance of the control issues, as presented in the footage, remain unclear. Still, speculators suggest that they might have contributed to the unfortunate events leading to the subsequent disappearance of the vessel.

Pre-dive tests overlooked

Another notable aspect of the footage is that the submarine seemed to have proceeded with its expedition despite being subject to underwater pressure tests. It is unclear whether these tests were a routine check or due to the control issue concerns explicitly mentioned in the video.

Experts in the field opine that pre-dive tests are vital for ensuring the safety and functionality of a submarine and its crew. However, it remains uncertain whether such tests were carried out on the fateful vessel before taking the plunge.

Aftermath of the disappearance

As recovery efforts persist, fervent discussions among the internet community have fueled numerous conspiracy theories surrounding the Titan’s vanishing, seemingly adding weight to these events. While it is unconfirmed if a technical glitch led directly to the sub’s disappearance, the recently discovered footage has surely provided valuable insight into the possible reasons for the maritime tragedy.

With numerous parties involved, including the families of the crew members and OceanGate, the YouTube star’s footage exposes an otherwise unknown aspect of the Titan sub incident, leaving audiences speculating on how control issues might have played a role in the vessel’s tragic fate.
