Inside the OceanGate disaster: Netflix's new documentary dives into the tragic descent that killed 5 people
Nearly two years after the OceanGate submersible Titan was presumed to have imploded during its expedition to the wreckage of the Titanic, killing the five people on board, a new documentary offers a fresh look at the disaster — and the man at the center of it. Netflix's Titan: The OceanGate Disaster explores how Stockton Rush, the CEO of OceanGate, did everything in his power to continue his trips to explore the ocean floor, even as it became more and more evident that the submersible was not safe. The film uses footage commissioned by Rush himself, who hired a videographer to document the journey, and shines a light on Rush's hubris, which ultimately had deadly consequences. Here's what to know about OceanGate, Rush and how this tragedy unfolded. Rush was a businessman who was born into a wealthy San Francisco family — and the descendant of two founding fathers, Benjamin Rush and Richard Stockton, per the Seattle Times. In 1986, he married Wendy Weil, who was the great-great-granddaughter of Isidor and Ida Straus, a wealthy couple who died on the Titanic. Rush was passionate about exploration. At 19, he became the youngest pilot in the world to qualify for jet transport rating, per the BBC. He received his undergraduate degree from Princeton University in aerospace engineering before getting an MBA from the University of California, Berkeley. Later, he worked as a flight test engineer on the F-15 program at McDonnell Douglas and later held leadership roles at Remote Control Technologies, Entomo and BlueView Technologies. But despite his aerospace degree and work experience, he eventually turned away from space — and to the ocean instead. In 2009, he cofounded the Bahamas-based OceanGate Expeditions with Argentine-American businessman Guillermo Söhnlein to make ocean exploration more accessible. OceanGate's first submersible, Antipodes, completed around 130 dives between 2010 and 2013, offering underwater trips to clients for prices ranging from an estimated $7,500 to $40,000. In 2015, the company began developing what would become known as the Titan (originally named Cyclops II), a deep-diving submersible built with a carbon fiber hull — an unusual and controversial design choice that received much pushback from experts and employees. It was reported that OceanGate used carbon fiber from Boeing that was past its shelf life for use on airplanes; later it came to light that NASA was supposed to aid in the creation of the Titan but that plans changed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Rush never had the Titan 'classed,' or independently certified to meet strict safety and design rules — choosing to skip the process despite expert warnings. David Lochridge, the company's director of marine operations, raised serious concerns about the submersible design and testing, believing that Rush's main concern was ensuring that the mission continued no matter what, as his focus was on making money. Lochridge testified to the U.S. Coast Guard in 2024 that he expressed these concerns, only to be fired from the company in 2018 and sued for breach of contract. Though Lochridge filed a complaint with the Occupational Safety and Health Administration against OceanGate, he said that they never investigated his concerns. In an email in January 2018 to deep-sea exploration specialist Rob McCallum, Lochridge wrote, per the New Yorker: 'I would consider myself pretty ballsy when it comes to doing things that are dangerous, but that sub is an accident waiting to happen.' But in July 2021, the company made its first successful dive to the Titanic, and by January 2023, the Guardian reported that the company took about 60 paying customers and 15 to 20 researchers to the Titanic in their submersible. In a 2022 interview with CBS Sunday Morning, Rush said, 'At some point, safety just is pure waste. I mean, if you just want to be safe, don't get out of bed, don't get in your car, don't do anything. At some point you're gonna take some risk, and it really is a risk/reward question. I said, 'I think I can do this just as safely by breaking the rules.'' On June 18, 2023, Rush and four other people — British billionaire Hamish Harding; French Titanic expert and former navy diver Paul-Henri Nargeolet; Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood; and his 19-year-old son, Suleman Dawood — left the coast of Newfoundland in the Titan on a mission to explore the wreckage of the Titanic. Each passenger onboard reportedly paid $250,000 for the trip, with Rush as the pilot. But about an hour and 45 minutes into its descent, the Titan lost contact with its support vessel. A large international search and rescue operation began, involving the U.S. Coast Guard, as well as Canadian and French authorities. At the same time, the media — and the world — watched, knowing that the crew only had 96 hours of oxygen at the beginning of their venture. On Thursday, June 22, debris from the Titan was found roughly 1,600 feet from the Titanic's bow. The U.S. Coast Guard confirmed the Titan had suffered a 'catastrophic implosion,' and that all five passengers had died instantly. Investigations later revealed that the vessel's carbon fiber and titanium design had raised serious safety concerns for years. In the aftermath, Rush was accused of eschewing regulations and testing, forging ahead despite all safety issues flagged. 'It comes down to Stockton Rush. The decisions he made led to this,' Mark Monroe, director of the Netflix documentary, told People. 'It was a cult of personality. If you went against him, you were likely to be out.' OceanGate officially suspended all exploration and commercial operations in July 2023. It also removed most of its internet presence. The company has not yet filed for bankruptcy and still exists as a registered business, per Today.

OceanGate's former chief pilot says he was 'cut out' from the Titan project after telling CEO Stockton Rush the sub wasn't safe
The former chief pilot of OceanGate said the company's CEO ignored his warnings that the Titan submersible — which was destroyed in a deadly implosion — was unsafe. David Lochridge made the claim in Netflix's new documentary, "Titan: The OceanGate Disaster." It examines what went wrong in the run-up to the Titan's visit to the wreck of the Titanic, which ended in the CEO of OceanGate, Stockton Rush, and four others dying onboard. Lochridge recalled just how determined Rush was to achieve his goal of making deep-sea tourism a reality. The documentary features archival footage of Rush and his team building submersibles, including the Titan. In one clip taken from an interview with CBS, Rush says: "By the time we're done testing it, I believe it's pretty much invulnerable." Lochridge was OceanGate's director of marine operations and the company's chief pilot from 2015 to 2018. He recalled how in 2016, Rush chartered a dive with the Titan's predecessor, the Cyclops 1 submarine, to see the SS Andrea Doria wreck off the coast of Massachusetts. The ship sank in 1956 after colliding with the SS Stockholm due to heavy fog. Lochridge said he had to persuade Stockton to let him accompany him on the voyage, which included paying passengers, after he decided to pilot it himself. Footage from inside the Cyclops during the dive, featured in the documentary, shows Rush piloting the submarine into a debris field underneath the bow of the Andrea Doria. The craft gets stuck, and Lochridge takes over the controls to pilot it to safety. "He had us jammed good and proper. I said to him, 'Please don't do anything. Just give me the controller.' He didn't have a lot of experience in piloting subs," Lochridge said. "At that point, I got us clear, I motored us 50 meters away, turned us round and I said 'That is what we were supposed to have fucking done on the dive,'" he added. Lochridge said that after the crew resurfaced, Rush's attitude toward him changed. "The passengers were hugging, but with Stockton, it was a complete turnaround for me. He never really spoke to me the rest of the trip. The dynamic changed. After the Andrea Doria, I started getting cut out by senior management from the Titan project. I was dropped from all email communications, verbal communications. I was totally out of the loop," he said. Lochridge said he was fired two years later in 2018 after he discussed his safety concerns with Rush in a meeting about the Andrea Doria incident. In 2023, OceanGate threatened to sue Lochridge if he didn't withdraw his allegations to the US Department of Labor that he was fired in retaliation for raising these concerns. In the documentary, Lochridge said that he was worried about the stability of Titan's carbon fiber hull and the caliber of the design team working on the project. He said: "I was seeing every single piece, and pretty much every single piece had an issue. The engineering director, Tony Nissen, we used to argue on a regular basis. He brought in people with very little experience from the manned submersible industry. A lot of them were fresh out of college." "At the time, I had no experience with carbon fiber, but for the untrained eye, it was like Swiss cheese. You could actually see the porosity, you could see the delaminations, you could see all the voids," he continued, referring to the separation of layers. Nissen also appears in the documentary and said he was pressured by Rush to "make sure nobody spoke up." Footage from 2018 also shows Rush arguing with Lochridge as he believed that the submarine could handle pressure at the extreme depths. "What you do is you set a testing program where you do it incrementally. It's not just going to go to 3100 [metres] and be perfect, and at 3200 [metres] it all goes anyway. That ain't going to happen, and I will put my life on the line to say that ain't going to happen," he said. OceanGate ceased operations in July 2023 and could not be reached for comment.
