The 2023 implosion of the Titan submersible shocked the world. In collaboration with Radio-Canada’s program, Enquête,The Fifth Estate’s Mark Kelley investigates how an experimental sub was allowed to take passengers to one of the most unforgiving places in the ocean to explore the Titanic wreck. Also, how they did it via the port in St. John's Newfoundland, one of the most monitored and regulated harbours in Canada.
