The race against time to find and rescue the 5 aboard the Titan submersible in the North Atlantic

This current drama will end soon one way or another but this conversation with Dr. Joe MacInnis will live on. Here's a first hand sense of what it is like down in the deep along side the Titanic from one who has been there. MacInnes was among the first to dive on the Titanic in a submersible back in 1987.

He agree to chat with me as the frantic search is underway.
