Scary Statement How Deep Missing Titanic Sub Could Century-Old Shipwreck Stuck in Ocean 12500ft Down
- last year
Scary animation shows how deep missing Titanic sub could be - with century-old shipwreck stuck on ocean floor 12,500ft down (TWICE as deep as the Grand Canyon)
As officials race against time to save five people aboard the missing Titanic submersible, an immersive new video shows how deep it could be.
As it goes, the heights of multiple landmarks are depicted in the water, including the Eiffel Tower, the Statue of Liberty and Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building.
Eventually, the camera reaches 12,000ft (3,700 metres) down – the bottom of the North Atlantic, where the remains of the Titanic sit.
The Titan submersible, operated by US firm OceanGate, started its dive on Sunday morning but all contact with its mothership was lost shortly after.
One of Pakistan's richest men, Shahzada Dawood, is aboard the vessel alongside his son Suleman, British billionaire Hamish Harding, OceanGate chief executive Stockton Rush and French explorer Paul-Henry Nargeolet.
The five people have only around a day of oxygen left, according to authorities, as of Wednesday morning UK time.
