The five men on-board the missing Titanic vessel have now been confirmed dead.
It was disclosed that they must have been killed by an implosion caused by some mechanical faults on the explorer machine.
OceanGate Explorations confirmed the deaths shortly after the US Coast Guard confirmed that debris was found.
The shocking news came just moments before a press conference led by United States Coast Guard’s Captain Jamie Fredericks took place.
A statement from OceanGate said: “We now believe that our CEO Stockton RUsh, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, Hamish Harding and Paul-Henri Nargeolet have sadly been lost.
“These men were true explorers who shared a distinct spirit of adventure, and a deep passion for exploring and protecting the world’s oceans.
“Our hearts are with these five souls and every member of their families during this tragic time.
“We grieve the loss of life and joy they brought to everyone they knew.”
