James Cameron knew the truth about Titan Sub implosion on Monday morning.

James Cameron Reveals Shocking Details About OceanGate’s Titan Submersible Incident

In a recent interview, James Cameron, the renowned director behind the iconic film “Titanic,” made a startling revelation about the tragic accident involving OceanGate’s Titan submersible. Cameron, an expert in diving and submersibles with his extensive experience exploring the Titanic wreckage, expressed regret for not speaking up sooner.

“I wish I’d spoken up, but I assumed somebody was smarter than me, you know, because I never experimented with that technology, but it just sounded bad on its face,” Cameron confessed.

Cameron’s realization came when he discovered that the sub’s electronics, communication system, and tracking transponder had all failed simultaneously. Tragically, it was announced that all five individuals on board had lost their lives in the accident.

Upon learning of the submersible’s disappearance, Cameron wasted no time in reaching out to his contacts in the deep submersible community.

“And the first thing that popped to mind was an implosion,” Cameron revealed. “I knew that sub was sitting exactly underneath its last known depth and position, and that’s exactly where they found it. There was no search. When they finally got an ROV down there that could make the depth, they found it within hours. Probably within minutes.”

Expressing his frustration, Cameron criticized the media for sensationalizing the story for ratings, emphasizing that he had known the truth since Monday morning.

In interviews with ABC News and The New York Times, Cameron proudly declared his extensive involvement in underwater exploration, surpassing even the captain of the Titanic in terms of time spent exploring the wreckage.

“As a submersible designer myself, I designed and built a sub to go to the deepest place in the ocean – three times deeper than Titanic,” Cameron boasted. “So, I understand the engineering problems associated with building this type of vehicle and all the safety protocols that you have to go through.”

Cameron attributed the submersible’s implosion to its construction material, carbon fiber, which is stronger and lighter than steel or aluminum but lacks strength in compression. Describing the implosion as an extremely violent event, he compared it to the force of ten cases of dynamite detonating.
