In Georgia, United States, a sandwich shop sign has left people with a bad taste in their mouth. The roadside sign was seen outside the Rincon city franchise of the popular sandwich brand Subway. It read "Our subs don't implode".&nbsp;The distasteful sign jokes about the recent implosion of the&nbsp;Titan submersible, a tragedy which resulted in&nbsp;the death of five people onboard.

As per Sky News, after spotting the sign passers-by expressed disgust and were quick to condemn the insensitive remark.&nbsp;

The Titan submersible tragedy

On 18 June 2023, OceanGate's Titan Submersible began its expedition to the shipwreck of The Titanic.&nbsp;

The vessel was carrying five passengers: Shahzada and Suleman Dawood, a father-son duo driven by their fascination with the Titanic; Paul-Henri Nargeolet, a renowned French scientist and Titanic expert, on his 38th dive to the Titanic wreckage; Hamish Harding, a British airline executive and Stockton Rush, the founder and CEO of OceanGate, who was piloting the submersible.

Just hours after the descent began, contact with the submersible was lost. As per the United States Coast Guard, the disconnection happened after one hour and forty-five minutes into the dive. Four days later, the Coast Guard announced the discovery of debris from the Titan and said that all the passengers have perished in an implosion that would've instantaneously killed all onboard.

Too soon? Subway's insensitive 'our subs don't implode' sign after Titan tragedy angers netizens

Several safety issues were highlighted in the aftermath of the Titan submersible implosion, which killed all five on board last month. Now, it is being reported that the sub's electrical system was apparently designed by interns.

The accident occurred when the sub was on a voyage to see the century-old wreck of the Titanic. The sub was operated by OceanGate Expeditions.&nbsp;

An investigation is underway to find out details of the accident in which OceanGate's CEO Stockton Rush, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, Hamish Harding, and Paul-Henri Nargeolet lost their lives.

Debris and presumed human remains were recovered and the United States medical professionals are analysing them.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The tragic accident raised questions about the unregulated nature of such expeditions. Several experts across the world also asked why private parties ignore safety checks during risky adventure trips.&nbsp;

Reports have also mentioned that the company had not got a safety audit committed by a third party. Some experts have highlighted that the scope of survival was low even if a small thing went wrong.&nbsp;

Now in another bombshell revelation, The New Yorker mentioned in its report that OceanGate founder Rush hired college-aged interns to design the "critical" electrical systems for the sub.&nbsp;

The outlet noted that Rush used interns from Washington State University Everett to work on the electrics. He was also accused of ignoring&nbsp;repeated safety warnings.&nbsp;

A person named Mark Walsh was hired by OceanGate in 2017 to lead the company's electrical engineering division after he graduated.&nbsp;He is a former student with Washington State University's Institute of Electrical and Electronics and apparently worked on the doomed vessel.&nbsp;

He added, "We are on the precipice of making history and all of our systems are going down to the Titanic. It is an awesome feeling!'"&nbsp;

According to The New Yorker, Walsh said that Tony Nissen, OceanGate's director of engineering, talked about the simmering issues and challenges faced by the company. He said that at the time he and fellow students volunteered to offer solutions.&nbsp;

"Tony said, "OK, you're hired,"' said Walsh, who was also the treasurer of WSU's Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers club.

While speaking to the college newspaper, he said, "'If electrons flow through it, I'm in charge of it,' he laughed. 'That ranges from monitors, keyboards and tablets to Wi-Fi and sonar."&nbsp;

The Linkedin profile of Walsh states that he was no longer with the company by 2019.&nbsp;

Did college interns design 'critical' electrical systems for Titan submersible?

It has been more than a week since the tragic deaths of the five passengers onboard the submersible Titan. Now, the wife of one of the ill-fated passengers has opened up about how their last moments must have looked like.

Speaking to the New York Times, Christine Dawood, who is related to two passengers; Shahzada Dawood and Suleman Dawood revealed, that in their last moments,&nbsp;they must've been sharing music as the insides of the pod moved deeper into the ocean.

<h2>Titan's journey underwater</h2>

As per the report, the submersible's journey underwater was roughly supposed to take two and a half hours. The Titan typically descended at about 25 metres per minute or roughly one mile per hour and the speed was slow enough that there was no sense of motion.

Among the passengers were Shahzada and Suleman Dawood, a father-son duo driven by their fascination with the Titanic.&nbsp;

Also onboard was Paul-Henri Nargeolet, a renowned French scientist and Titanic expert, who intended to make his 38th dive to the wreckage.&nbsp;

Hamish Harding, a British airline executive, thrilled to be partaking in his first expedition of this kind, made the fourth passenger.&nbsp;

Lastly, Stockton Rush, the founder and CEO of OceanGate, piloted the submersible, aiming to leave a lasting legacy as an innovator.

<h2>Hours leading to the tragic descent</h2>

Christine Dawood recalls that in the hours leading to the tragic event, the passengers prepared for a unique journey to explore the wreckage of the Titanic; a journey that would've added their names to the list of people who have seen the famous shipwreck in person, but instead ended in a tragedy.

Talking to NYT, she recalls watching her husband, Shahzada, and son, Suleman, as they boarded the Titan submersible from the support ship.&nbsp;

Excitement filled the air as they embarked on this once-in-a-lifetime adventure. Suleman brought a Rubik's Cube, while Shahzada carried his Nikon camera, eager to capture the mesmerising sights through the porthole.

The two men had a strong fascination with the Titanic and had planned to experience the dive together. OceanGate, the company behind the expedition, marketed itself as a unique opportunity to explore the world's most famous shipwreck.&nbsp;

As the passengers prepared for the final dive, Hamish Harding posted updates on social media, sharing photos and expressing excitement. Little did he know that these posts would be his last.&nbsp;

<h2>A sunny day takes a dark turn</h2>

As the Titan descended into the depths of the ocean, Christine remained on the support ship, watching the submersible disappear beneath the waves. The sun was shining, and everything seemed calm and promising.&nbsp;

Shahzada's enthusiasm was palpable, exclaiming, "I'm diving tomorrow! I'm diving tomorrow!" His anticipation was infectious, and Christine recalled how he resembled a joyful child.

Just hours later, Christine overheard murmurs about a loss of communication with the Titan. The United States Coast Guard confirmed the disconnection after one hour and forty-five minutes into the dive.

Anxiety washed over Christine as she rushed to the bridge, where the team monitored the submersible's descent. She was reassured that sporadic communication was not uncommon.&nbsp;

She hoped for a swift reconnection. However, as the afternoon wore on, the realisation sank in that something was gravely wrong—Titan and its crew were missing.&nbsp;

Four days later, the Coast Guard announced the discovery of debris from the Titan, indicating its implosion and the instantaneous loss of all onboard.

Final moments of Titan passengers: A day of anticipation and dread

Debris from the Titan submersible which imploded, killing all five on board, has&nbsp;been recovered and returned to land by a Canadian-flagged ship on Wednesday (June 28). The sub operated by OceanGate Expeditions was on a voyage to see the century-old wreck of the Titanic earlier this month, becoming a matter of global concern.&nbsp;

A report by the news agency Reuters mentioned that a video from the Canadian Broadcast Corporation carried footage from the harbour, which showed the nose of the submersible and some other shattered fragments.&nbsp;

The pieces were wrapped in a white tarp and were seen being pulled up by a crane off the Horizon Arctic vessel at St John's Harbour in Newfoundland. Reports mentioned that twisted chunks of the 22-foot submersible were brought ashore.&nbsp;

Some experts have previously said that the recovery of the debris will be crucial in the investigation to find out what led to the tragic implosion of the submersible, which killed five passengers, including the company OceanGate's CEO Stockton Rush, besides Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, Hamish Harding, and Paul-Henri Nargeolet.&nbsp;

When the officials announced that the search and rescue mission for the passengers was ended and those on board were "sadly lost", it was said that five major pieces were detected amid the debris around the Titanic site. A nose cone, outside the pressure hull, and a larger debris field were among them.&nbsp;

Pelagic Research, which operates the robotic vehicle, said in a statement: "Our team has successfully completed off-shore operations, but is still on mission and will be in the process of demobilization from the Horizon Arctic this morning." It declined to comment further, citing confidentiality reasons.&nbsp;

The company also said that they have been working around the clock now for 10 days and are facing physical and mental challenges during this operation. They said they are also anxious to finish the mission and return to their loved ones.

Footage also showed a shattered part of the hull and machinery with dangling wires being taken off the ship at St. John's, where the expedition to the Titanic had set off from.&nbsp;
