Karl Stanley, a close friend of Stockton Rush, suggested that the OceanGate CEO had a “death wish” that made him carelessly risk the lives of his passengers to go down in history.
When asked what he believed the fatal flaw of the Titan was, Stanley said: “There’s no doubt in my mind that it was the carbon fiber tube that was the mechanical part that failed.”He even thought he heard that part cracking when he accompanied Rush on a test dive of the Titan in 2019 off the coast of the Bahamas.
“That’s a heck of a sound to hear when you’re that far under the ocean in a craft that’s only been down that deep once before,” he added. “There is an area of the hull that is breaking down. It will only get worse,” he wrote to Rush in 2019, and candidly told his friend that he had a severe lack of operating experience, “60 Minutes” revealed.
