US EditionOceanGate Documentaries Dive Into Questions About Sub Tragedy
- On June 18, 2023, OceanGate's Titan submersible imploded near the Titanic wreck, killing CEO Stockton Rush and four passengers including a teenager.

- Key witnesses recalled Rush downplaying hull cracks and safety concerns while firing dissenting employees like engineering director Tony Nissen, who refused to pilot the Titan.

- After a two-year investigation, the U.S. Coast Guard is expected to release a final report soon, with OceanGate having permanently ceased operations since the disaster.
