Thank you for posting that video. It’s worse than I expected.
Amateurs led my a narcissist… whatever assets Ocean Gate and Mr.Rush had won’t bring back the other 4 souls on board.
I’m thinking the bond between the 5” thick carbon fiber tube and the titanium end caps may have let go. I expected some kind of mechanical energized seal there that would have dealt with the differential collapse of the tube and the end caps (these will move differently and the shear strength of the glue in the interface may be only good for a limited number of stress cycles before it is breached).
