With the clock ticking to rescue the five people missing on the Titanic submersible, a terrifying new animation clarifies just how deep the missing sub could be.
The OceanGate submersible lost contact with its mother ship around an hour and 45 minutes into its dive to the wreck of the Titanic on Sunday, June 18. In a daunting update, the US Coast Guard predicted the five on board had enough oxygen left to last them until 11am BST on Thursday, June 22.
The wreck of the Titanic lies around 12,000 ft (3,700m) under the ocean's surface at the bottom of the Atlantic off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. To grasp just how terrifyingly deep that is, Spanish animation company MetaBallStudios created an animated clip.
