Titán: El desastre de OceanGate

The arrogance of Rush to believe his own hype, and refuses to listen to anyone regarding safety is incomprehensible. He literally took what amounted to tin can into the water and killed 4 people because of his arrogance. Refusing to get it certified so there could be oversight was the height of arrogance. Refusing to register it under any country especially the USA because he knew they would have oversight was sheer arrogance. I'm sorry for the people who died because they had no chance because he believed his own hype. Do you think there was a reason his own wife would not go on any dives with him??? Too bad it didn't implode when he was on it alone.

This documentary provides deep insight into the OceanGate accident, including information previously unknown to the public and revealing connections to Stockton Rush.

Personally, I would have preferred a slightly longer and more detailed documentary, but overall, it's still a strong watch.

It becomes clear that everything was wrong design of Titan and designed around the CEO's decisions - and that he bears the ultimate responsibility. He comes across as an arrogant figure.

As someone working in IT as a software QA, I understand how crucial quality assurance and testing are.

Throughout the documentary, despite clear risks associated with Titan's dive to the ocean floor, these dangers are not taken seriously. Warnings are ignored, discussions continue, and the tragic result seems inevitable.

The dismissal of key engineers further reinforces the recklessness of the approach.

In the end, the documentary firmly places the blame on Stockton Rush - and rightly so.

Netflix's documentary on the Titan submersible disaster is a gripping case study in hubris. Stockton Rush, the CEO of Oceangate, fancied himself a visionary in the mold of Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk, but lacked any genius and judgment to match (and none of them have much charisma). What Rush didn't lack was arrogance: dismissing safety concerns, ignoring engineering fundamentals, and ultimately dooming himself and his passengers. The film makes a compelling, damning case that this was no freak accident but the result of the unchecked ego of a man who thought he could outwit physics and the immensity of the ocean. It's sobering and infuriating and worth a watch.

This was a decent documentary that focused mostly on the events leading up to the disaster and on the people within the company. The main event is hardly talked about which was disappointing. The events leading up to it are somewhat interesting and I really liked David Lochridge, the guy tried everything he could but unfortunately, everything and everyone was against him. This documentary is more for behind the scenes of the company but there's another documentary from Discovery that covers the implosion itself better and has interviews with the investigators themselves which I did like better though it is a bit more dramatic than the Netflix one. Overall, it's fine but I think the ending might disappoint a bit.

I enjoyed watching this documentary but the longer I watched, the more I got annoyed with Stockton Rush. There is zero doubt that his is the sole cause of those people loosing their lives. He let his Ego outweigh his common sense(if he even had any). He was an example of someone who is rich that would leverage his wealth and connections to get what he wanted or he would ruin someone's life if he didn't. He should have been the only one on that Sub when it imploded. There were problems all along the way and he kept ignoring them and wanting to push forward. If someone didn't agree with him he would blame them for something and then fire them.
