OceanGate co-founder Guillermo Söhnlein is coming to the defense of late CEO Stockton Rush, one of those killed in the implosion of Titan, after criticism from director James Cameron, and others, who"In this kind of community, there are completely different opinions and views about how to do things, how to design submersibles, how to engineer them, build them, how to operate in the dives," Söhnlein told the U.K.'s Times Radio on Friday.

Obviously we were hoping to hear some good news about the rescue and them coming back. It was heartbreaking to find out that that's not the case," Samad Dawood told ABC News."He was always the kind of person who has this incredible love for the world," Samad Dawood said.

They're great for internal pressure vessels like scuba tanks, for example, but they're terrible for external pressure," Cameron, who famously directed the Oscar-winning film"Titanic," told ABC News' George Stephanopoulos in an interview Friday on"Good Morning America."
