An Irish explorer who is part of the Titanic expedition has confirmed he is 'ok' after five people have gone missing in a tourist submarine.
Rory Golden, who was the first Irish diver to visit the wreckage of the Titanic in 2000, is the on-board Titanic expert for Ocean Gate Expeditions - the company which takes paying tourists to view the famous wreck.
The Dubliner is part of the crew of this year's OceanGate Expedition and is on board the main ship located in the north Atlantic Ocean, off the coast of Newfoundland.
