Loved ones of the explorer nicknamed “Mr. Titanic” have alleged in a lawsuit that those on the doomed OceanGate submersible knew they were going to die before it imploded.
The lawsuit alleged that’s because the Titan submarine “dropped weights” prior to its implosion, indicating that those on board knew their dive to the deep was in trouble about 90 minutes after they hit the water.
“While the exact cause of failure may never be determined, experts agree that the Titan’s crew would have realized exactly what was happening,” the lawsuit stated. “Common sense dictates that the crew were well aware they were going to die, before dying.”
