A comprehensive animated film depicting how the Titan submersible may have imploded, killing five people, has gone viral. AiTelly’s YouTube video swiftly accumulated over 6 million views (and counting) in just 12 days after it was uploaded. The 6-minute, 20-second video demonstrates succinctly how the vessel imploded underwater due to massive pressure.
When the Titan submarine imploded, it killed OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, British billionaire Hamish Harding, French diver Paul Henry Nargeolet, Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman. This occurred on June 18, just two hours into their dive beneath the famed Titanic shipwreck in the North Atlantic Ocean at a depth of around 1,676 meters.
The video was made in 12 hours using open-source software
The Titan animation was made by a team of three people, according to a spokeswoman for the AiTelly YouTube channel who spoke to the New York Post. They obtained information and data about the sub from OceanGate’s website and Google before bringing it to life with Blender, an open-source 3D modeling software. It took them about 12 hours to complete the full process.
The video has been re-uploaded with the appropriate modifications
According to the representative, they initially produced a video that contained inaccuracies and needed to be corrected. They then re-uploaded the video with the required changes and fixes. They noted in the movie that instead of using standard solid metals like steel or titanium, the Titan’s hull was made from a strong type of carbon fiber used in aerospace.
The storytelling begins with the fundamentals
The narration begins with a definition of an implosion as “a process of destruction by collapsing inwards on the object itself.” Implosion contracts where explosion expands.” It emphasizes the enormous pressure at the depth where the Titanic sank in the Atlantic Ocean – approximately 5,600 pounds per square inch (386.16 MPa). This pressure is over 400 times greater than what humans experience on the surface.
Titan’s carbon fiber structure allegedly crumbled under high pressure, according to a video
The OceanGate submersible crumpled and collapsed almost instantaneously due to the strong hydrostatic pressure in the surrounding water. Titan’s disputed carbon fiber construction is blamed for the tragic failure, according to the narration.
“Existing technology is based on steel, titanium, and aluminum. These are what kept other submarines from being crushed. But the Titan has had an experimental design,” the video said.
