I’d strongly urge you to watch an interview with him or one of the many documentaries he’s been a part of.

Personally I think he knew the outcome earlier this week and waited to speak to the media out of respect for the families. His first interview was hours after the implosion announcement.

As he says, it’s a very tight knit community in which he is a part of and has been for almost 30 years. I think he’s trying to use his voice to ensure that collateral damage does not occur to other less reckless submersible makers, who in turn tried to warn OceanGate.

I saw him saying it was an implosion several days ago. I think the media just didn't follow up with him until there was more hard evidence.

Ah that’s interesting!

I was surprised when he told ABC that he had heard they were trying to resurface and that they were probably aware that the hull was failing due to the alarm system the Titan was equipped with.
