all deep sea manned subs have spherical pressure vessels.. while this one tried to be special with a tube lol.
most likely the tube pulled away from the end caps. the pressure on the tube is greatest in the middle, so when it gets pressed down, it causes the edges (where the carbon fiber meets the titanium ring) of the tube to pretty much deform away from the ring. and the ring and tube is only glued together lol.
