The Titanic sightseeing ship is controlled by a 700k game controller, the victim's family is in shock!

The submarine to visit the Titanic wreck carrying 5 people who went missing in the Atlantic Ocean on June 19 was controlled by a gamepad for only 30 USD (corresponding to 700 thousand VND).

On June 19, the tourist submarine called Titan, carrying 4 tourists and 1 operator, went missing in the Atlantic Ocean while diving into the sea to visit the famous wreck of the Titanic.

It is known that each visitor has to pay 250,000 USD (about 6 billion VND) to buy tickets to visit on this submarine.

The last signal of this submarine sent to the control board showed that the ship's position was at a depth of 4000m below the sea surface. Search and rescue operations were conducted quickly after the submarine lost signal. It is known that the structure of this ship is locked right outside, so that even if the ship surfaced, the people inside still could not get out by themselves.

This is a model that is still manufactured and sold by Logitech on the market for about 30 USD (700 thousand VND).

The fact that the Titan submarine is equipped with a gamepad controller and is equipped with many asynchronous accessories shows that this ship has a problem with safety standards. However, the ship was still operated and caused unfortunate consequences. On June 30, reports confirmed the Titan had suffered a "catastrophic explosion" while heading towards the wreck of the Titanic, killing all five passengers.

When talking about her son's last wish before his death, Christine Dawood couldn't help but choke: "My son said he would try to solve the rubik's cube at a depth of 3,700m near the wreck of the Titanic. Suleman brought a camera on board the ship. Titan and I hope you will record the image of the Rubik's Cube in that Titanic expedition."

However, that wish could not come true now, when the boy and his ill-fated father were gone forever on the Titanic submersible to see the wreck of the Titanic. Ms. Christine said that Suleman's son at the time was very excited to be one of the passengers to experience that expensive submarine.
