How did the French submarine guy go for it? He certainly should have known better.
He must have been the trusting type. Trusting that this rich guy and his wiz kids know what they are doing.

The only hope for them is if there is another submarine or an unmanned submersible can attach a cable to the craft and have it hoisted to the surface. I don't see any kind of hook on the Titan.

We have, or had, rescue submarines but they were designed for military subs and not for the depths where the Titanic lays.

Maybe if he hired a couple more old white submarine vets he would have designed some more redundancies and fail safes into his craft.
