A two-man team plans to journey nearly 13,000 feet below sea level in a new vessel.
Nearly a year after an OceanGate submersible imploded on its way to the Titanic wreckage, a billionaire wants to travel down there to prove it’s safe.
"He called me up and said, 'You know, what we need to do is build a sub that can dive to repeatedly and safely and demonstrate to the world that you guys can do that, and that Titan was a contraption,'" Lahey said. Lahey said Connor, a client of his, had been pushing for a new sub to go on the journey since just days after last year’s tragedy.
Those who died in last year’s expedition included the CEO of OceanGate, Stockton Rush, Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman, British businessman Hamish Harding and French explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet. All were ultra-wealthy and paid big bucks for the excursion.
