ZDF Documentary Reveals Shocking Details

At the center of the revelations is OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush and his controversial decisions. Unbelievable but true: Instead of using proven materials like steel or titanium, Rush opted for carbon fiber for his submersible. As early as 2019, one of his first carbon fiber submersibles developed cracks after just a few dives. Yet these warning signals were apparently ignored.

The documentary also reveals that the Titan was never inspected for safety or even registered by independent authorities. This is a detail that is astonishing in hindsight, considering the risky journey the submersible was to undertake.

These 44 minutes are a must for anyone who wants to understand how such a tragedy could happen at all. Further wrong decisions are uncovered, which ultimately led to the death of five people.

This shocking revelation has been available in the media library since June 6 and will be broadcast on television on Sunday, June 22, at 7:30 PM. The program is also available with subtitles, audio description, and in sign language to ensure that everyone can comprehend the fatal insights.
