Tourist Visits To Resume Despite OceanGate Accident – Titanic Expert

A US Titanic disaster expert has predicted that tourist visits to the wreckage of the sunken ship will pick up again, despite the catastrophic implosion of the OceanGate last month.

Jessica Sanders, President of Royal Mail Ship Titanic, Inc., expressed her thoughts on the submersible implosion that killed her colleague, French explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet, who was one of the ship’s five victims.

‘It’s difficult because this one ended in a tragedy. But do I think the response is you should never be able to go? Then that contradicts a person that I deeply respected.’

Sanders stated that Nargeolet held the opinion that “it shouldn’t be only for a few people who can pay to get there.”

She shared his conviction: ‘Everybody should be able to see the artifacts, and it shouldn’t be just a millionaire, a billionaire or the military or a filmmaker that can go down to the wreck site.

It has been weeks since the submersible exploded while traveling to the Titanic’s wreckage, which was 12,500 feet below on the surface of the Atlantic Ocean before it sank.

Canadian police are considering whether ‘criminal, federal, or provincial laws’ were broken in the lead-up to the Titan submersible disaster.

The Royal Canadian Mounted Police will examine ‘the circumstances that led to the deaths’ of the five crew on board the sub and decide ‘whether or not a full investigation is warranted’.

OceanGate’s website still included pages advertising trips to the Titanic – just weeks after the disaster.

A page titled ‘Titan Expedition – Explore the Titanic’ was still available on Thursday, which offered a chance to dive to the shipwreck in the company’s submersible.
