The estate of a Titanic researcher who was among the five people killed when the Titan submersible catastrophically imploded has filed a wrongful death lawsuit.
The estate of a Titanic researcher who was among thewhen the Titan submersible catastrophically imploded while on a deep-dive voyage to the site of the famous shipwreck last year has filed a wrongful death lawsuit seeking more than $50 million in damages.
"While the exact cause of failure may never be determined, experts agree that the Titan's crew would have realized exactly what was happening," the lawsuit stated. "The carbon-fiber hull was cracking under extreme pressure -- prompting the pilot to release weight and attempt to abort. Common sense dictates that the crew were well aware they were going to die, before dying."
"Nargeolet may have died doing what he loved to do, but his death -- and the deaths of the other Titan crew members -- was wrongful," the lawsuit stated.
