Stay to the end to see the implosion. With of the loss of the Titan submersible, there is plenty of blame and speculation to go around. My take is that it was initially a win for DIY, but that doesn't make you a Pro. The number of traditional violations for a vehicle you could be stuck in for hours was beyond belief. Whether off-road vehicle, aircraft, or deep sea submersible, you simply cannot take shortcuts in design and components and expect reliability. That the Titan worked in the first place was from both luck and close-enough engineering. But that's where it should have stopped. The quantity of stacked faults, unknown science, and fatiguing materials doomed this craft on the drawing board. There are many single-use technologies, and this was one of them. RIP.
