The U.S. Coast Guard's final report on the Titan submersible implosion blames CEO Stockton Rush for the disaster. The 335-page report, released after a two-year investigation, criticizes OceanGate's inadequate design, safety culture, and Rush's disregard for repeated warnings about the submersible's dangers. The report highlights a "toxic safety culture" and Rush's misrepresentation of the Titan's safety. The implosion, which killed five people, is deemed preventable. The report recommends stronger oversight for experimental submersibles.
