Titan: il disastro di OceanGate

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.

I am sorry the submersible didn't implode when Rush was in it alone. He's obviously 100% responsible for the deaths of the customers. Despicable character.

I'm proud of the people who quit the company and spoke out. We are responsible for speaking up when people of authority overstep their bounds.

It was very nice to get the backstory of this catastrophe and see that it was entirely preventable if not for the arrogance of Stockton Rush. It's also interesting to see how he replaces the strong people with the yes men and yes women. I hope this is a cautionary tale to prevent this from happening again.

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 found the documentary excellent, great cinematography, good music, it's well organized and the understandably focused on Stockton Rush.

The documentary details how we got to this horrific implosion, exposing his stubbornness, his dishonesty, and his charisma despite his relative mediocrity.

We get a good perspective on his madness, his psychology, and keys moments of the "successes" he had until the inevitable bang.

It's indeed very interesting, but it's missing some of the expected results of the investigation. The financial aspect, for example; how dire were OceanGate's finances ? And how much pressure was he under to get paying customers ?

Anyway, good job overall...

I actually enjoyed watching the Titan documentary. Overall it wasn't bad. The production quality was good, and the interviews and footage were interesting. However, I went into it expecting a much more detailed explanation of what exactly happened on that tragic day. I kept waiting for a deeper dive into technical aspects and potential causes behind the incident (for that specific day). Only a brief 3-minute was dedicated at the very end to the actual events of that day leaving many critical questions unanswered. If the investigation is still ongoing and no conclusive information is available yet, I personally believe it would have been more appropriate to release such a documentary after the findings were complete. That way, viewers could gain real insight into the incident even through simulations or expert reconstructions of what have occurred.
