They got a leak and drowned before crush depth.

The got a leak and lost pressure and got crushed before they could think it.

They lost power and could not go up and ran out of air.

The lost power, killed the others first, and ran out of air.

Or one person is rescued and the others all “died” from being in a small enclosed system with a billionaire. A common story of our times.


Probably will be made into a Black Mirror episode.

Hey, Juicero was an over-engineered piece of poo poo where no expense was spared on making the dumbest thing possible. This is the opposite of that.

When conducting an unmanned test of the Bathysphere with the third window installed, they found it almost entirely full of water. Realizing the immense pressure that the Bathysphere must be under, Beebe ordered his crew to stand clear and began loosening the hatch's bolts to remove the hatch himself.[2] Beebe described the experience that followed this in his book Half Mile Down:

Suddenly, without the slightest warning, the bolt was torn from our hands, and the mass of heavy metal shot across the deck like the shell from a gun. The trajectory was almost straight, and the brass bolt hurtled into the steel winch thirty feet [9.1 m] away across the deck and sheared a half-inch [13 mm] notch gouged out by the harder metal. This was followed by a solid cylinder of water, which slackened after a while into a cataract, pouring out the hole in the door, some air mingled with the water, looking like hot steam, instead of compressed air shooting through ice-cold water.[6]

After replacing the third window with the steel plug and conducting another unmanned test, the same problem happened again.[2] Beebe later described what would have happened to him and Barton had they been inside the sphere on a dive during which it leaked. They would not have had time to drown: due to the immense pressure, "the first few drops of water would have shot through flesh and bone like steel bullets."[8]

Okay, this can't be true, right? Come on. This is too hacky even for these morons.

It sounds pretty similar to steam boiler explosions. Anybody nearby is essentially instantly turned into pink mist.

There's something incredibly off-putting about the people in this video. I don't even know what it is, but everyone in this video is like someone dragging their nails down my soul.

Also holy poo poo how do they not have a rescue beacon. Christ pick one of those Garmin emergency guys for like 200 bucks

I mean, not to defend them as everything about it is awful, but EPIRBs float and kind of assume they're on the surface, rather than trying to use radio through solid water.

edit: solid water. that's not a phrase I've used before, lol.

Has anyone mentioned that they are literally sealed into the sub from the exterior and have no way to get open the sub to get fresh air? They'd still be hosed even if the emergency ballast system worked properly and they surfaced.

Why the hell wouldn't it be possible to open the hatch form the inside? You just need to shut it close enough and then the outside pressure will hold it more than tight enough.
