Old footage from inside the Titan depicts the moment the incident occurred while approaching the Titanic

Excerpts from last year's documentary about the Titanic wreck expedition clearly show what happened to the submersible Titan.

According to the NY Post, footage filmed inside the Titan submersible, excerpted from the BBC's 2022 documentary "Take Me To Titanic , " has resurfaced after the horrific accident on June 18.

It is known that this is a film recording the exploration journey of the Titanic wreck at the bottom of the ocean by a group of 5 explorers and the pilot of the Titan ship at that time was Scott Griffith.

According to the footage, the incident occurred when the crew was about 300 meters from the Titanic wreck. At that time, the submersible's propulsion engine began to malfunction .

"Something's wrong with my thrusters. I'm doing the thrust but nothing's happening,"  Griffith said.

After investigation , the cause of this incident was due to Titan being installed incorrectly, causing the ship's two engines to push in opposite directions , causing the Titan to spin in an uncontrolled circle.

At the moment the Titan crashed, Reneta Rojas, a crew member on board, showed her anxiety as she held her head and began to panic as the crew tried to reprogram the ship's movement management from a controller shaped like a video game controller.

"You know what I'm thinking, we're not going to make it. We're literally 300 metres away from the Titanic and we've kind of gotten close to the wreckage but all the ship is doing is spinning in circles,"  Reneta Rojas shared.

Despite confirming the ship's fault, the documentary also revealed that crew members had to wait hours for OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush to fix the problem from the mother ship.

'We were so happy that we found a way to move forward,' Rojas said.  'We started clapping inside the submersible and saying, 'Yes, we can go.''

Fortunately, despite the terrifying incident, Rojas and the rest of the expedition were able to safely see the Titanic wreck during that dive. Rojas also admitted that they had been warned before the dive that the ship was still in its "experimental" phase and could encounter dangerous situations.

As the 2022 documentary crew emerged from the water after their expedition, Stockton Rush began to dismiss the crew's concerns about propulsion problems, telling his clients: 'almost every deep-sea submarine makes noise at some point.

After the Titan explosion on June 18, the CEO's past disregard for safety warnings about the ship was dug up and received a lot of criticism.

Along with Stockton Rush, British billionaire Hamish Harding (58 years old), famous Titanic explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet (77 years old), famous Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood (48 years old) and his son Sulaiman Dawood (19 years old) unfortunately passed away in this submarine explosion tragedy.
