The Biggest Revelations From Netflix's 'Titan: The OceanGate Disaster'

It was billed as a once-in-a-lifetime adventure: a deep-sea dive to the Titanic shipwreck 12,500 feet (3,800 meters) below sea level aboard a sleek, experimental sub made out of carbon fiber—a material never used prior for submersibles. CBS's David Pogue, who went on a dive with OceanGate in July 2022, said he was told that the company boasted to have a robust safety culture with a 'rule of three,' in that if even three 'little things' went wrong, missions would be scrapped. But what unfolded was a slow-moving disaster years in the making. As OceanGate's former engineering director Tony Nissen says in Netflix's new documentary Titan: The OceanGate Disaster, it wasn't 'that we didn't follow a set of regulations' that led to the imposition, but that it was the company 'culture.' That might sound like a startling admission, but it's only one of many revelations being shared by former OceanGate employees in this documentary among others amid the ongoing investigation by the U.S. Coast Guard and other governing bodies. Here's an overview of some of the most important things viewers learned in the Netflix documentary about the Titan, OceanGate, and its founder, the late Stockton Rush. For a ship to be classed means it has been reviewed and certified by an independent maritime classification society to meet established structural and safety standards. This process ensures the vessel's design, construction, and maintenance adhere to international guidelines for seaworthiness. After the first hull on Titan was completed, Rob McCallum, founding partner and operator of EYOS Expeditions, says in the documentary that Rush told the crew in 2018 while at lunch near the company's headquarters that he saw no need for classification or third-party oversight. (McCallum was consulting given his experience on deep sea tours.) McCallum says he stood up and resigned on the spot. 'I said, 'I'm sorry I can't be a part of this conversation, nor can I be associated with OceanGate or this vehicle in any way,' and I left,' McCallum says. 'He had every contact in the submersible industry telling him not to do this.' In 2016, an OceanGate submersible piloted by Rush became stuck beneath the wreck of the Andrea Doria off the coast of Massachusetts. Despite warnings from OceanGate's then-director of marine operations, David Lochridge, about the dangers of approaching the deteriorating site, Rush moved too close and wedged the Cyclops 1, another one of the company's submersibles, into the bow. Accounts vary on what happened next. Some reports claim Rush panicked and threw the controller at Lochridge to take over. The documentary includes the most footage ever shown of the incident: Rush, indeed, looks flustered. Lochridge very clearly and calmly is able to regain control of the sub and steer it back to the surface. That said, it still cannot be confirmed if the controller was thrown or not, as camera angles inside the sub are limited due to its size. After the 'classed' incident, Rush assigned Lochridge to write a safety report on the Titan. Lochridge raised concerns about the carbon fiber hull and the lack of non-destructive testing. He was then summoned to a meeting the following day with Stockton, finance and administration director Bonnie Carl, quality assurance director Scott Griffith, and Nissen. Curiously, the meeting was recorded, and the audio playback was shared in the documentary. Lochridge was fired, and bizarrely, Rush tried to replace him with Carl, positioning her as the company's first female pilot, even though Carl herself points out she was an accountant. She says in the documentary she knew 'at that moment, she couldn't work at the company anymore' and decided to leave. Lochridge filed a whistleblower complaint with OSHA, alleging retaliation under the Seaman's Protection Act. OceanGate responded with a lawsuit, accusing him of breaching a non-disclosure agreement and misusing proprietary information. Lochridge countersued, claiming wrongful termination for raising safety concerns. He later said the legal battle became too draining for him and his wife to continue. At a U.S. Coast Guard hearing, he removed his glasses to wipe his eyes while describing the ordeal. At the end of the 2022 diving season, OceanGate left the Titan on an exposed dock in St. John's, Newfoundland for the winter—without shelter, garage, or even a tarp beyond a small blue one for the porthole. Nissen said he warned Rush the sub could not withstand sub-zero temperatures or the carbon fiber would begin to fracture. In the documentary interviews as well as testimony in front of the U.S. Coast Guard investigative panel, former employees said the company didn't have the budget to ship the sub back to Washington. No explanation was offered for why even a rental garage or temporary cover couldn't be provided. The Netflix documentary highlights that several missions were attempted beforehand in June 2023, including one featuring YouTuber Scuba Jake. On that second-to-last dive, the sub briefly submerged before losing communications and aborting the mission after just a few feet under water. Jake has since shared his experience both in the documentary and to his social media accounts, but he noted on his Instagram page that he took several months away for his mental health after the implosion.

13 Sad Signs Your Friendships Are All Superficial

Not all friendships are created equal. Some nourish your soul, while others barely scratch the surface. If you constantly feel emotionally underfed after hanging out with friends—or like you're playing a role just to stay included—you may be stuck in a loop of shallow, surface-level relationships. Superficial friendships can look perfectly fine from the outside. But underneath the brunches, group chats, and birthday texts, there's a quiet lack of depth, vulnerability, and mutual investment. These are the subtler signs your social life may need a reset. You catch yourself rehearsing what to say, avoiding certain topics, or holding back your real thoughts out of fear it'll be 'too much.' Instead of feeling seen, you feel curated. The version of you they know is safe—but not real. Betterhelp highlights how authenticity is key to healthy relationships. If authenticity feels risky, the connection isn't real intimacy Over time, it's exhausting to be liked for your costume. That's not friendship—it's into your power, be who you, resist the urge to edit or shrink yourself, people will either like you or not. You know what they post, what they wore last weekend, and maybe even what they're bingeing on Netflix—but not what keeps them up at night. Their pain, fears, or emotional struggles never come up. It's all vibe, no vulnerability. As Psychology Today notes, sharing deeper thoughts and feelings is a hallmark of meaningful friendships. True friends ask deeper questions. When conversation stays in safe zones forever, it's a red flag. People can hang out for years and still know nothing real about each other. A true friend will want to dig deeper and know the real you, in all your messy glory. Spending time together doesn't fill your cup—it depletes it. Instead of feeling uplifted, you feel more tired, small, or emotionally off afterward. That's not your overthinking—it's your nervous system noticing a friendships leave you more at ease with yourself, not less. Emotional hangovers are a sign something isn't aligned. Chemistry without depth doesn't nourish. If you feel uneasy after being with people, perhaps they are not your people. You initiate the texts, the plans, the check-ins. If you stopped trying, you suspect the relationship would fade completely. That lopsided effort can feel invisible—and lonely. As Psychology Today points out, healthy friendships are built on mutual effort and reciprocity. Friendship should feel mutual, not transactional. If you're carrying all the weight, it's not a bond—it's a convenience. Connection requires effort and reciprocity. If it's one-sided perhaps they aren't your true friend. You bite your tongue when you're hurt or confused. You don't share your real feelings because you know they'll ghost, deflect, or downplay it. The friendship feels too fragile to hold not friendship—that's emotional tiptoeing. True connection can handle difficult truths. If the price of honesty is silence, you're in a shallow space. Friends should be able to share your wins and your loses without judgement. You hype them up, share their wins, and cheer them on—but when it's your turn, their support feels muted or performative. There's a subtle envy, detachment, or indifference that kills the vibe. They can't hold space for your friends feel competitive, not collaborative. Their energy reveals more than their words. A little healthy competition is OK and you should inspire each other to be the best versions of yourselves. If your light makes them dim, they're not your people. Your conversations orbit around everything but their actual emotions. You know about their boss and their brunch plans—but not their beliefs, wounds, or what they're healing from. It's all surface, no isn't just about trauma dumping—it's about emotional honesty. If you've never heard them say 'I feel lost,' 'I'm afraid,' or 'I'm growing,' they're likely holding back. Or they don't trust you or themselves, to go there. Vulnerability is a strength, not a weakness and when someone opens up the connection deepens. They show up when it's fun or social media-worthy, but disappear when life gets messy. Crisis, heartbreak, illness? Radio silence. Their presence is friendships can't hold grief, confusion, or real life. If they vanish when the sparkle fades, they were never really in it. Hard times reveal what soft friendships can't carry. Real friends step in and step up and always help you carry the load. If bonding means trashing someone else, it's not connection—it's a coping mechanism. Conversations that center on drama, judgment, or negativity leave no room for mutual growth. There's more shade than can feel like intimacy—but it's counterfeit closeness. When you remove the shared disdain, what's left? Often, not much. Gossiping about others or feeling the need to bring others down is also the sign of an insecure or vindictive person—steer clear. It's all memes, logistics, events, or complaints—but no real reflection. You rarely talk about purpose, growth, or what you're navigating emotionally. The friendship is stuck on repeat. Without emotional expansion, friendship becomes routine. You're not growing together—you're just existing nearby. That's not soul connection—it's social stagnation. It's depth that makes friendships feel authentic and meaningful. You notice subtle micro-dismissals: eye rolls, minimizing comments, quick subject changes. When you open up, they move on quickly—or make it about themselves. Your experiences don't seem to in a room with people who don't truly see you is a unique kind of loneliness. Toleration is not affection. Real friends witness you fully—even when it's anyone makes you feel less than, it says more about them, than you. Choose your circle wisely. Humor is their shield. Whenever a serious moment starts to land, they pivot to sarcasm, distraction, or 'just kidding.' Emotional discomfort is always deflected with can build rapport—but overused, they create distance. If everything is a punchline, nothing becomes sacred. And sacred space is where true friendship lives. Hiding behind humor is usually a trauma response or defense mechanism that shows someone lacks emotional depth or intelligence. You sense it deep down. You're always the backup plan, the extra invite, the one who fits only when someone else cancels. You feel peripheral in the group, not friendship feels like home—not a favor. If you always feel like an afterthought, it's time to rethink what you're calling connection. True friends make time for each other and go out of their way to invest and make sure you feel valued.

Titan: The OceanGate disaster – the full list of victims in the submersible implosion

A new Netflix documentary will explore the OceanGate submersible disaster of 2023, which left five people dead. The Titan submersible was heading down to the wreckage of the Titanic on 18 June. It was an exclusive trip reserved for only the very richest of society, with each seat on the submersible costing $250,000. However, as the Titan approached the wreckage, it stopped communicating and seemingly vanished into thin air. A four-day search and rescue mission took place in the Atlantic Ocean, before debris from the Titan was found nearly 4000m under the sea. It was thought that the Titan imploded, with the submersible's carbon fibres being unable to withstand the extreme pressure of the deep sea. Titan: The OceanGate Disaster will explore how businessman Stockton Rush and his deep-rooted desire to make extreme tourism a reality cost him, and four others, their lives. Here is the full list on who was on the Titan submersible at the time of the disaster. The 61-year-old businessman who co-founded and was CEO of OceanGate, a deep-sea exploration company. Rush had faced criticism from others in the field, and his own employees about the safety of the Titan submersible. Most submersibles are made of titanium or steel – however, the hull of the Titan was made of filament-wound carbon fibre, This made the vessel lighter, and less costly, but carbon fibre was more unpredictable. The Titan was also not 'classed' by an external body or third party. Despite warnings, Rush was confident in his contraption, which made 13 successful trips to the Titanic wreckage before the ill-fated excursion in 2023. A former employee, who was not named, told the BBC: 'Rush was very level-headed, he knew what needed to be done," he said. "He went on every sub dive, he was the pilot for every single one, and that's because he trusted the safety of the sub.' The 77-year-old French sea explorer and Titanic expert had a deep love and interest in the 1912 Titanic shipwreck, to the extent he was nicknamed 'Mr. Titanic' by loved ones. Before his death, he was the director of underwater research for RMS Titanic, the company that owns the salvage rights to the storied shipwreck, and the author of the book In the Depths of the Titanic. He had previously made 35 dives towards the wreckage, and was once a decorated commander in chief in the French navy. Nargeolet was reportedly aware that the Titan was a somewhat ramshackled operation. Friends told Vanity Fair that they 'all tried to stop him' from taking part in excursions on the vessel. Somewhat nobly, he reportedly told loved ones: 'Maybe it's better if I'm out there, I can help them from doing something stupid or people getting hurt.' The 58-year-old British adventurer and businessman had a life filled with opportunity and extremes; he previously earned a pilot's license while he was studying for a degree in Cambridge, and launched the first regular business jet service to the Antarctic with his company Action Aviation. Due to his line of work, Harding regularly visited the South Pole. He accompanied Buzz Aldrin in 2016 when the former astronaut became the oldest person to reach the South Pole, age 86. A lifelong aviation buff, in 2019 Harding was one of a team of aviators that took the Guinness World Record for a circumnavigation of the Earth via the North and South Poles in a Gulfstream G650ER in 46 hours and 40 minutes. Two years later, Harding turned his attention to the deep blue seas; working alongside retired naval officer Victor Vescovo as he dived to the deepest point of the Mariana Trench – a staggering 36,000ft deep. This excursion landed him a second Guinness World Record for greatest distance covered at full ocean depth and greatest time spent at full ocean depth. Harding is survived by his wife, Linda, his two sons and two stepchildren. The family lived in Dubai. The 48-year-old British Pakistani businessman worked as a vice-chairman of the Engro Corporation and as a director of the Dawood Hercules Corporation, where he dealt with mergers and acquisitions. He gave significant amounts to charity; he was a trustee of his family's Dawood Foundation, which focused on education. Dawood also coordinated efforts to fight Covid-19 in Pakistan, as well as providing mental health support. He had a lifelong interest in the Titanic and had bought the trip on the Titan for him and his wife, Christine. The trip was then delayed due to the Covid-19 pandemic – Christine then opted to give her ticket to her son, Suleman. Initially, the 19-year-old university student was not due to go on the trip. When his father, Shahzada, bought the tickets, he intended for just him and his wife to go, as Dawood was too young (the minimum age requirement for the submersible was 18.) However, with the trip being delayed due to the pandemic, and her son really wanting to go, Christine gave up her seat. Dawood was reportedly 'really excited' to be heading down to the wreckage. Per the BBC, Christine revealed her son had taken a Rubik's Cube with him because he wanted to break a world record. Suleman reportedly carried the toy everywhere and wanted to solve the puzzle below the remains of the Titanic to set a world record. Speaking of the loss, Christine said: 'We all thought 'they are just going to come up' so that shock was delayed by about 10 hours or so. There was a time … when they were supposed to be up on the surface again and when that time passed, the real shock, not shock but the worry and the not so good feelings started.' Our thoughts are with the families and loved ones of the victims following this tragic event.
