Bone-chilling TikTok clips show what the “catastrophic implosion” of the Titan submersible might have looked like — a terrifying re-enactment of the event that killed five passengers in the North Atlantic’s treacherous depths.
Implosions occur shockingly fast, as demonstrated by an old animation of a railroad tanker suddenly collapsing.

Link does not work,
I got lost
Corrected Link.
If it happened at all.
GMTA. Missed by 17 seconds!
Watching the cavalier attitude of the guy who ran this l keep thinking of the f*** around and find out video.
Actually, while materials will be badly deformed [bent and twisted] due to the energy of the implosion and the stresses put on them, the materials will only be very slightly compressed.
Thanks!
NP. 2 links better than 1
By comparison, since the 1912 sinking occurred slowly, there is probably 99% of its contents left intact. Albeit rusted and decayed over the century. The Titan contents are virtually gone in the flash.
I agree. I believe they will be able to recover quite a bit of this submersible.
While tragically sad it will be very interesting at the same time.
This is now turning into a macabre freakshow.
You believe solid metal items, like wedding rings, compress down at that level of pressure, from all sides?
.... which is why I really don’t think any of this happened at all.
First off, the media hasn’t told the truth about a single thing in about 6 years. Secondly, this is a perfect way to fake the deaths of those involved.
No disrespect but my chain is being yanked far too much these days and I’m sick of being made to look like an idiot. Read my covid posts from the earlier part of that whole sh!tshow. I tried my best to be a good person and in the end I was just an idiot.
I’m done with it.
Yeah, I made this about me :) sorry!
Not gone at all. Splintered into a lot of small pieces because that is how carbon fibre fails, but it’s all still there. But the material deformation while huge on an engineering scale is negligible on an atomic scale. Atomic bonds are a lot stronger than that. For instance diamonds are used to compress things to many orders of magnitude greater than the pressure [e.g. megabars] at the bottom of the ocean [one kilobar]. If you are not careful in executing the experiment the diamond will crack costing you a diamond that you need to buy for the next experiment.
Linky no worky....................
Blast damage from supersonic (or faster) wave of water coming in will mishape/misform/compress all forms of steel. A SABOT round from a 120mm tank is slower velocity than 6000psi+ velocity of incompressible water. Perfectly compressed miniature? No. Piece of metal that won't fit on anyone's finger? Yes.
