00:00Okay, you've heard it a million times, the Titan's submersible tragedy was avoidable.
00:03But now the Coast Guard has released their final report, and they're not mincing words.
00:07They say it was completely preventable.
00:09The report outlines eight major failures.
00:11We're talking flawed design, inadequate testing, and critical warning signs from the Hull's monitoring system that were completely ignored.
00:17OceanGate, the company behind Titan, kept operating the sub despite clear red flags and skipped essential maintenance.
00:23But the problems went deeper than just engineering.
00:25Investigators uncovered a toxic workplace culture where safety concerns were dismissed or silenced, and a glaring lack of international and U.S. oversight.
00:33And on top of all of this, the CEO publicly called the sub indestructible, misleading passengers and staff and creating a false sense of security.
00:40Now the Coast Guard is pushing for stronger regulations and safety standards for deep-sea exploration.
00:45Because this wasn't just a freak accident, it was a cascade of preventable failures that cost five lives.
00:50But what do you think? Let us know in the comments and follow us here for more.
