The passengers who were declared dead included British-Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood, 48, and his son, Suleman, 19; British adventurer Hamish Harding, 58; French deep sea explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet, 77, who’d been on Titan’s maiden voyage in July 2021; and Rush, 61.

In the end, the sheer recklessness of the Titan endeavor and the inevitability of its eventual collapse is well demonstrated by both of these documentaries. Stockton Rush is presented as a dangerous and delusional man who used the media, legal loopholes, and sheer intimidation to push his creation past the point of no return.

The Titanic-visiting vehicle imploded 2 miles below sea level in June 2023 killing all five people on board. An investigation is ongoing.
