Where is 'Implosion' streaming? How to watch the new doc about Titan submersible
In 2023, OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush and his passengers traveled deep into the Atlantic Ocean, planning to explore the RMS Titanic's wreckage.
Before they reached their destination, the submersible they traveled in imploded, killing all five people on board. Recently, newly released footage revealed the muffled sound the submersible's communications team heard after they lost contact with the vehicle.
Now, a new BBC documentary shares the evidence of what happened in the deep-sea tragedy.
The new documentary is being broadcast at 9 p.m. ET on Wednesday, May 28, on the Discovery Channel. Check your local listings for more information.
As of Wednesday afternoon, "Implosion: The Titanic Sub Disaster" was listed as "Coming Soon" on Max and Discovery+. According to The Hollywood Reporter, it'll be available on those services May 29. It's also scheduled to come to Netflix in June.

Rush's wife, Wendy Rush, is seen with Gary Foss, part of the submersible's tracking and communications team, on June 18, 2023. They were monitoring data and text while the vessel traveled deep into the North Atlantic Ocean.
"What was that bang?" Wendy asked. On the footage, the sound is a muffled thump, and neither Rush nor Foss seemed alarmed.
That sound, the U.S. Coast Guard said, "later correlated with the loss of communication and tracking" and "is believed to be the sound of the Titan's implosion reaching the surface of the ocean."
The video was provided to the Coast Guard by OceanGate Inc., the company that owned the submersible. The Coast Guard has yet to release the final report of its investigation.

It wasn't just a movie, kids. It's real. The RMS Titanic, deemed "unsinkable," hit an iceberg in the North Atlantic and sank. Thousands of passengers died.
At the time, the news industry operated much differently, and Indy papers had differing reports of what happened.

This ‘Sex and the City' dress achieved cult status. But it has controversial origins
Remember when Carrie Bradshaw of 'Sex and the City' wore a Christian Dior newspaper-print dress? Bradshaw, the fashion-forward sex columnist, played by Sarah Jessica Parker in the television series, defined late 1990s and early 2000s lifestyle aspirations for Gen X women when she and her three friends dominated the small screen from 1998 to 2004. (The television series and sequel aired on HBO and Max, respectively, which share the same parent company as CNN: Warner Bros. Discovery.) Cut on the bias and featuring a newspaper print, the now iconic outfit designed by John Galliano became a piece of fashion legend, courtesy of a scene from season three, episode 17, which saw Bradshaw wearing it while walking in slow motion through the traffic-lined streets of Manhattan. In those brief on-screen moments, the dress — which was from Dior's ready-to-wear autumn-winter 2000 'Fly Girl' collection — assured cult status. In January 2000, Galliano had already been at the helm of Christian Dior for four years, during which he injected the storied French fashion house with an exciting new energy. The British designer had become known for his fantastical collections and elaborate, narrative-driven runway shows. That year, he showed Dior's spring-summer haute couture collection at the Palace of Versailles, the former residence of the French royal family. Against this decadent backdrop, he sent models down the runway in dresses, jackets and pants made to look stretched, slashed and distressed, accessorized with what looked like garbage found on the street — miniature whiskey bottles, for example, and discarded kitchen utensils. Some models were draped in what appeared to be layers of newspapers reimagined as voluminous pants or peeping through sheer slip dresses. The collection, titled 'Hobo,' was inspired both by the displaced people the designer saw while jogging and by the 'Tramp Ball' trend from the 1920s and 30s whereby the wealthy dressed as the homeless for glamorous soirees. In this couture collection, the newspaper print was taken from the fashion pages of the International Herald Tribune. While the fashion press was complimentary of the collection in reviews, controversy soon ensued. Social welfare advocates and French critics were appalled. Was Galliano making a statement on class and privilege with this collection, or mocking the homeless? The homeless community staged protests outside Dior's headquarters in Paris' swanky 8th arrondissement. The opprobrium caused Galliano to release an official apology ten days after the collection debuted, stating, 'I never wanted to make a spectacle of misery.' Nevertheless, at Dior's autumn-winter 2000 ready-to-wear show, newspaper print again made its way into the collection, entitled 'Fly Girl.' However, this time Galliano created the fictional 'Christian Dior Daily' newspaper for the show and the design — inspired by Elsa Schiaparelli's 1935 newsprint pattern — which was seen on the runway printed on chiffon, leather, the lining of coats and on dresses. The garment that Parker would later wear was modeled in the fashion show by Angie Schmidt. In a 'Sex and the City' episode titled 'What Goes Around Comes Around,' which aired in October 2000, Parker's character wore the piece with her signature gold nameplate necklace, black lace Manolo Blahnik heels and a Fendi baguette bag — a vision of the modern New York woman whose glamour outpaced her practicality. While the dress had a controversial 'hobo chic' beginning, on Bradshaw it became emblematic of a new type of heroine — imperfect, neurotic, complicated, messy yet relatable. Twenty-five years on, the cowl-neck slip dress continues to fascinate. At the May premiere of Jenna Ortega's latest film 'Hurry Up Tomorrow,' the actor made headlines after she arrived onto the red carpet wearing the archival gown. Ortega took a few cues from Parker's on-screen version (she donned a similar gold pendant necklace and smoky eye makeup) but finished the look with a gold slingback heel. Following its runway debut, the dress went into production. Today, when it shows up on the secondary market or at auctions, it is considered a fashion holy grail, selling for many times its estimate. In December 2024, two identical versions of the historic dress happened to go to auction that same month — the first was at Kerry Taylor Auctions in London, and the second at auction house Sotheby's in New York. In both instances, the dress far exceeded its estimated selling price. In London, it fetched £55,000 ($69,000) — nearly tripling its estimate. And in New York, it more than doubled the expected price, selling for $54,000. In an email, Sotheby's told CNN that it acquired the coveted dress from a private collector who purchased it new when the 'Fly Girl' collection was first released nearly 25 years ago. 'It is by John Galliano at his peak during the Dior years. This fact alone makes it a desirable vintage collector's item,' said Lucy Bishop, who oversaw Sotheby's 'Fashion Icons' sale. Galliano later repurposed the print as 'the Galliano Gazette' for his namesake label and has since released several commercial collections featuring the famed motif. None have captured the zeitgeist quite like the original, even though celebrities including Rita Ora have worn an iteration of it. Galliano was fired from Dior in 2011 for a public antisemitic tirade and ousted from his namesake brand a month later. (He later apologized for his behavior.) But his fashion legacy still inspires. More recently, designer Demna (who only goes by his first name) gave his take on newsprint for Balenciaga's spring-summer 2018 collection, covering cardigans and shirts in the motif as a reaction to 'fake news' made famous by Donald Trump's tweets. Newspapers, once only a platform to distribute daily happenings, are continuing to inspire, only in a different guise. With nostalgia for 2000s fashion continuing to rise, the popularity of the design has made its way to mainstream fashion brands, with the likes of Réalisation Par, Shein and Zara all releasing their own versions of the print. So enduring is the style that Bradshaw actually wore the dress again in 2010's 'Sex and the City 2' movie. With the third season of SATC reboot 'And Just Like That…' released this week, whether she'll dig it back out of her closet remains to be seen.

Woman feared dogs, then began trekking all over the world with newly adopted pup
Once terrified of dogs, German adventurer Heike Pirngruber is now walking the globe with Butch, a flea-covered puppy she rescued in Mexico that's reportedly become one of the most well-traveled dogs on the planet. Together, the two have crossed continents by foot, canoe, motorbike and tuk tuk, news agency SWNS reported. Pirngruber, 53, adopted the Australian cattle puppy in 2021 while she was staying in a beach hut in Baja California, Mexico. Butch was just a month old, malnourished and alone when she found him. "I never really liked dogs when I was a kid," Pirngruber of Heidelberg, Germany, told SWNS. "But the first moment I had little Butch in my arms and knew he was mine now, I couldn't believe how I felt." Her fear of dogs came from years of solo travel — seven of them spent cycling around the world. She was often chased by aggressive strays, she said. But her perspective began to change after a chance encounter at the beach hut. She had cooked grilled chicken when a street dog, later named Max, appeared at her door, SWNS reported. Initially hesitant, she was convinced by a friend to feed him. The next day, Max returned with two companions, Brownie and Pushy. She began feeding them regularly and slowly shed her fear. Later, when a local tried to give away a litter of flea-ridden puppies, Pirngruber made a life-changing decision. She chose Butch and took him on the road. "Nothing was the same anymore," she said. "And I had no clue how this little puppy would change my life." She added, "He's my best friend. I love this guy to death and it's awesome. I've never regretted picking him up and taking him with me on my travels, especially as he wasn't treated very nicely." Having Butch by her side changed more than her travel routine, according to SWNS. "With Butch, I always have someone there. I am never alone. I have such a connection with him and I'm happy with him." A former camera operator for ZDF (Zweites Deutsches Fernsehen), Germany's biggest broadcast station, Pirngruber has been traveling full-time for more than 12 years. She has visited 104 countries across every inhabited continent. Originally, she'd planned to cross the Americas by donkey in 2020, she said, followed by a break in Baja California in 2021. "With Butch, I always have someone there. I am never alone. I have such a connection with him." But after adopting Butch, she scrapped that plan and chose other ways to continue their journey. Over the next three years, they explored the Americas together on foot, by canoe, motorcycle, and tuk tuk before flying to Madrid in April 2024, per SWNS. After a brief return home, just her third visit in 12 years, she quickly realized that life in Germany no longer felt like hers. She was pulled back to the road. "Now, I love my freedom, I love living day-by-day, I love not knowing where I am staying each night or where I can pitch my tent. It's such a thrill," she said. Since then, she and Butch have walked through Spain, Andorra, France and Italy, before sailing to Greece. As of Nov. 2024, they'd crossed five European countries. "I choose where we go, mainly day by day. There are times when we want to get away from civilization and be by ourselves, and then other times I'm sitting in a square trying to get some contact with others, either in person or through my phone." "I love living day-by-day. I love not knowing where I am staying each night or where I can pitch my tent." She added, "But I'm not a planner, and that's the fun in it. It's about experiencing new places. I love culture. I love to understand the planet." She carries only the essentials she needs, she told SWNS: camping gear, a stove and pot, a camera, first aid supplies, and medicine for Butch. "Less is more," she said. "Carrying less is more freedom. It's always a burden having more." Despite occasional challenges, Pirngruber said her experiences have been overwhelmingly positive. "Ninety-nine percent of people are nice, and overall, I've had some great encounters with people," she said. "It's a safe world to travel in, in general."
