A chilling video showcases the immense depth of the ocean where a submersible, currently lost during an expedition to the Titanic, could be located.
The ocean’s depths remain largely unexplored compared to the vastness of outer space, harboring mysteries yet to be discovered due to the alien, dark, and inhospitable conditions found in its deepest regions.
The RMS Titanic wreck site, which the submersible owned by OceanGate was heading towards, resides approximately 12,500 feet beneath the frigid North Atlantic, equivalent to around 2.4 miles.
Situated about 600 kilometers off the coast of Newfoundland in Canada, the location is even more remote than one might imagine.
Unfortunately, the submersible lost contact with the surface vessel on its way to the destination. The five individuals aboard, including OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, billionaire Hamish Harding, diver Paul-Henri Nargeolet, and Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood with his son Suleman, are currently facing diminishing oxygen supply.
The latest development involves a Canadian aircraft detecting “banging” noises originating from the ocean, coinciding with the final 24 hours of available oxygen aboard the submersible.
The accompanying video provides a graphic representation of the possible location of the submersible and the vast ocean beneath it. The scale is daunting, and it’s unsettling to realize that the Titanic wreck is not even in one of the deepest parts of the ocean. Its depth is relatively average for the Atlantic and Indian Oceans.

To reach the very bottom, one would have to be in the Pacific Ocean, specifically at the Mariana Trench, the deepest known place on Earth. Little is known about what lies in this abyss, where darkness prevails.
This video serves as a reminder of the daunting challenges faced by the search and rescue teams tasked with locating the OceanGate submersible and its occupants. Time is of the essence, and hopefully, a successful rescue operation can be carried out soon.
