Titanic movie director James Cameron says he was told on MONDAY that the sound of the Titan sub imploding had been detected, and claims the carbon fiber hull of the doomed ship was known to be unsuitable
James Cameron, who directed the 1997 film Titanic and has dived to the wreck more than 30 times, said he learnt on Monday that an implosion had been heard
Cameron said that he 'watched over the ensuing days this whole sort of everybody-running-around-with-their-hair-on-fire search', knowing it was 'futile'
He said that the carbon fiber hull of OceanGate's submersible was fundamentally unsuitable for the expedition

'I tracked down some intel that was probably of a military origin, although it could have been research - because there are hydrophones all over the Atlantic - and got confirmation that there was loud noise consistent with an implosion,' he told CNN.
