But there had been warning signs - with experts previously writing to Rush, warning him not to go ahead - with some experts writing a letter in 2018, five years ago, stating the company's 'experimental' methods could end in a 'catastrophic' disaster. But Rush furiously hit back - claiming that doubting Titan's safety credentials was 'personally insulting' to him and dubbing claims he was 'going to kill someone' as 'baseless'. He claimed several times he felt the submersibles industry was over-regulated, and that its health and safety measures stifled 'innovation'. Worried industry leaders claimed there was 'concern regarding the development of Titan and the planned Titanic expeditions'. In its letter, The Marine Technology Society, a 60-year-old trade group that aims to promote ocean technology, wrote: "Your marketing material advertises that the TITAN design will me){kind=link}
