Titanic wreck to be visited by another billionaire
![]() 780 Tuesday, 19 August, 2025, 23:02 The 1912 shipwreck of the Titanic has remained off limits for two years since the reckless Oceangate tragedy which killed five people instantly when their sub-par submersible imploded as it descended into the deep. However, the Titanic — 12,500 feet below the surface of the North Atlantic Ocean — remains a huge draw for thrill-seeking billionaires and marine explorers alike. In particular, those in the submersible industry are eager to send another manned craft to the wreck to try and restore public confidence in such missions. “Besides it being a wreck of historical significance, the fact that it lies at such great depth makes it fascinating to visit,” Patrick Lahey, CEO of Triton Submarines, who is in the midst of building a new commercially available submersible that could handle such a journey, told The Post. |
