Netflix’s TITAN: The OceanGate Submersible Disaster is a harrowing documentary chronicling the tragic implosion of the Titan submersible during its 2023 dive to the Titanic wreck. The film follows Stockton Rush, CEO of OceanGate, whose ambition led to critical safety oversights—including a carbon-fiber hull and lack of certification. Through survivor families, engineers, and internal whistleblower David Lochridge, the story exposes a culture of denial and risk. Real audio, archived footage, and CGI reconstructions paint a chilling picture of the final dive.

As the Titan loses contact just 1 hour and 45 minutes into its descent, experts reveal the probable cause: catastrophic hull failure at crushing depths. The five passengers—including Rush—are killed instantly. The documentary ends with calls for tighter submersible regulations and questions the morality of deep-sea tourism. It’s not just a story of technology gone wrong—but of hubris, unchecked ambition, and lives lost in pursuit of the deep.
