Titanic Sub: Confirmed To Have Imploded With All Five Passengers

What was intended to be a 10-hour expedition to explore the Titanic shipwreck, has tragically resulted in the loss of all five passengers aboard a submersible.

The devastating implosion of the vessel was confirmed on Thursday, which concluded a week-long international search for survivors. 

The US Navy detected a distinctive sound consistent with an implosion on the day the submersible went missing on Sunday.

Fragments of the Titan submersible have since been discovered by search teams.

The five-member crew included billionaire explorer Hamish Harding, French diver Paul-Henri Nargeolet, Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood.
