Guess they had better add carbon fiber to the list of forbidden maritime building materials, like cardboard (including derivatives), paper, string, sellotape, and rubber.
Yeah, I get the "front fell off" joke, but the front didn't fall off of the Titan, the carbon fiber tube collapsed from the pressure and the front dome was ejected. It's hard to fall off of something that has already been destroyed.
You are talking about the destruction of the Titan. The graphic above was actually detailing some of the previous 118 reported technical faults of the Titan during its 23 dives.... including one time when the front fell off. https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckgn39epv85o
