    Storyline

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      Karl Stanley, pilot for Titan/DeepGate, claimed the Titan's implosion caused temperatures 'hotter than the sun (within the vessel well as), extreme pressures ('twice those of a scuba tank '), However, the actual pressure is 5,600 psi, nearly 400 times atmospheric pressure. Stanley's statements are not only false but also misleading, which is concerning for a professional. While implosions do create some heat, the surrounding cold deep-sea water would significantly diminish it, making any heat generated negligible compared to solar temperatures.
    • Quotes
      • Self - Host, Expedition Unknown, Discovery Channel: I suddenly realized, what would it mean if I made this kind of promotional documentary about Stockton and about OceanGate that maybe inspired other people to go and take a ride in this sub... and then something happened to it? And so I made the really difficult decision to call up the president of the network and to fall on my sword and say, "I'm really sorry, I know that money's been spent here, I know that this is something that was a big deal for you to sign off on, and I appreciate the opportunity, but we shouldn't do this. This is a mistake. Something bad is going to happen here."
    • Alternate versions
      The version released on Discovery, a day after the BBC' release is 30 minutes longer with scenes edited in a different order and with more archive footage, extended interviews, hearing testimony from Tony Nissen, and written onscreen narrative graphics instead of a narrator voice over.
