A new documentary has revealed audio taken from search and rescue efforts, which gave hope that those aboard the Titan submersible might be alive.
Last year, five people died aboard a submarine owned by OceanGate when it sank into the wreckage of the Titanic. Hamish Harding, Paul-Henri Nargeolet, Shahzada Dawood, Suleman Dawood and OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush were on board.
Contact with the ship was lost on June 18, prompting an extensive search effort.
During efforts to locate the Titan submarine and re-establish contact, a rhythmic thumping noise was heard, which gave some hope that those on board might still be alive.
These crash sounds were picked up by the Canadian Air Force and appeared to come every 30 minutes, prompting some to wonder if the submarine's occupants were still inside and trying to signal for help.
However, experts stressed that they did not know what the impact sounds were, and over time it was concluded that the submarine had exploded on the day it disappeared.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the US Navy received a noise it thought was the explosion of the Titan submarine shortly after contact was lost, meaning search and rescue efforts picking up the sounds of the impacts were not detecting signs of life.
Audio of that noise is heard in the new documentary The Titan Sub Disaster. The documentary, which will be broadcast on March 6 and 7 on Channel 5 at 9pm, aims to follow the details of the sinking of the Titanic to the wreckage of the Titanic and what lessons have been learned from the tragic loss of five lives.
Since the disaster, OceanGate's website has said they have "suspended all search operations".
