The first thing I saw of Titan, while lookong for some footage of the infamous controller, was two screenholders, and that lightbar fr AliExpress or something, directly screwed into the inside of the hull... I honestely do not know what to say about all of this, which is actually pretty rare.

I pitty the other four passengers, Rush got what asked for, and rightly so.

It was screwed into a floating inner liner cylinder which you can see in any video is separated from the hull. Get the facts straight before sounding off with gleeful incredulity.

Just rechecked a video, and there is some kind of liner used, to which the equipment is attached. I stand corrected.

There is nothing gleeful in any of my comments so, quite the opposite, I am really sad. Amd getting the facts straight requires a proper investigation, one that is happening. What I did was a superficial "FMEA" based on whatever, incomplete, information was publicly available at the time. Some is wrong, some is missing and some comes straight from OceanGate / Rush himself.
