I've had to correct so many people on this in the last couple days so, in case you were also unaware...

james cameron is an actual, very legit authority on deep sea submersibles, especially in relation to the titanic. he is one of the top authorities on it. in the entire fucking world. yall seem to conveniently forget how much of his life and his money has gone directly into research and development for deep sea exploration. he went to the challenger deep and only two people ever had been before him and it was over 50 years before. i'd go as far as to say we owe most of our data on the deep sea of the last 20 years almost directly to cameron. he's worked on solutions to help clean up ocean oil spills, he's helped nasa with the mars curiosity rover, he runs a green and sustainable business (with peter jackson even!!), he researches alternative energy solutions, he personally paid ransom money to save Guillermo del Toro's father beause that was his friend and he could help. he is one of the very few rich white guys that actually puts his money where his mouth is and one of the even fewer who says when he knows something, he actually really fucking knows it.

so yeah. there's a reason why he's been interviewed so much about it all and why people actually care about his opinions and facts.
