Diver who died in submarine rescued, Titanic artifact crowned in Las Vegas
French deep-sea explorer Paul-Henri Nargiolet, one of the five people aboard the Titanic submersible that tragically imploded on Sunday, is responsible for repairing what is now the Luxor Hotel in Las Vegas and The star attraction in the Titanic exhibit at the casino. Vegas.
"Titanic: The Artifacts on Display" has been viewed by more than 25 million people, showcasing many emotionally charged artefacts and re-enactments of life on the ill-fated ship's maiden voyage. But nothing packs a big punch like a big chunk.
A 27-foot-long fragment of the starboard (right) side of the Titanic's hull that once stretched from the top of the D-deck porthole to the top of the C-deck now hangs in a darkened room, concluding the series. Its tattered edges and twisted panels are a solemn reminder of how violent the Titanic was during her sinking.
Nagéollet is a retired French naval commander who was head of underwater research at Experience Media Group, the producer of the Luxor exhibition. The most important thing is that he must give birth to his child.
First try
During a 1996 expedition, the boulder was attached to a cable attached to a flotation bag that gently brought it to the surface. Thousands of witnesses stood on the railings of the MV Jim Kilabuk ship as Nargeolet gave the signal to release the bag from its ballast and the bag began to slowly rise.
Screams and applause erupted when this section of the Titanic saw daylight for the first time since April 14, 1912.
However, two hours later it was discovered that the ship's winch was insufficient to lift the 15-tonne relic aboard. Nagiolet's request for a crane was unwisely ignored, and he decided to let the large piece hang "free" from the stern of the Kirabooke before returning to Halifax to find another method of salvage. .
Storm surge from Hurricane Edward forced the team to abandon the chunk and watch it fall back to the ocean floor for a second time.
In August 1998, Nargeolet completed the contract for a more powerful vessel, the Abeille Support.
Narolai led several other Titanic expeditions and oversaw the recovery of at least 5,000 other artifacts. In addition, he completed 37 dives similar to the one on which he died.
The Second Titanic Tragedy
After four days of a frantic search that swept the world, U.S. Navy Rear Admiral John Mogg announced at a press conference on Thursday that a remotely controlled vehicle found the Titanic's stern in the rubble 1,600 feet from the Titanic's bow. cone. seabed.
"The size is consistent with a catastrophic loss of the pressure chamber," Moger said.
The Titan, operated by Everett, Wash.-based OceanGate, went missing Sunday during a mission to inspect the wreckage of the Titanic 900 nautical miles east of Cape Cod, Massachusetts.
Narolai's family released a statement, remembering him as "an extraordinary father and husband" who "will be remembered as one of the greatest deep-sea explorers in modern history." The statement added: "When you think of the Titanic and everything that is known about the ship today, you think of Paul-Henri Nagéollet and his legendary work."
In addition to Nergeolet, OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, British billionaire Hamish Harding and Pakistani businessman Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman are also on board.
