Trapped Under the Sunken Titanic

Real Survival Stories

Available for over a year

Dik Barton has an amazing job. His 9 to 5 is spent recovering artefacts from the world’s most iconic shipwreck. In August 1994, Dik leads a dive to the bottom of the Atlantic - to explore an uncharted section of RMS Titanic. The mission is going off without a hitch, until their sub is knocked off course by a freak ocean current. Trapped within the wreckage, with dwindling oxygen supplies, Dik must think fast. Otherwise he too will suffer a tragic fate, 82 years after Titanic met hers… A Noiser production, written by Joe Viner.
