Simulation of Titan submersible explosion takes place in less than 14 milliseconds

Hypothetically, under ocean pressure the submersible Titan exploded in the blink of an eye in less than 5 milliseconds (1 millisecond equals 1/1000th of a second) and the debris needed less than 14 milliseconds (14 milliseconds) to disperse across the ocean.

Submarine expert José Luis Martín said that the ship free-falls 1,000 meters underwater for up to 71 seconds due to pressure changes. The passengers on the Titan were aware of what was about to happen to them about a minute before the explosion.

Dr. Ronald Wagner, an expert on buckling of thin-walled shell structures, used graphic animation software to show the brutal reality of the Titan submersible explosion in milliseconds (1/1000th of a second).
