Lampsacus posted:I'm just surprised they can bang on the walls intensely enough for the outer shell/hull to vibrate 🫨 It doesn't take much. It's no different from hearing someone pounding on the other side of a wall. If the sub was on dry land and all buttoned up, and someone was on the inside pounding on the wall, you'd hear it. Same thing when it's in the water, except the sound may travel a lot farther.

My theory is that submarines are an object that has a platonic ideal (ie they’re arguably the opposite of airplanes, and there are submarine lego sets on the market, so it’s different from something like a unicycle, which has no lego set , purpose, or opposing vehicle) and this particular submarine sunk because it strayed too far from that form (no periscope tower thing or giant singular propeller on the back for instance)

For most of Obama's first term, there was a GBS thread called like "bump this thread every time fox news gets somebody killed" I thought about it a lot during covid and now I'm thinking on it again. This ceo idiot with his libertarian brain obsessed with gov't regulation and lax safety got 5 people killed BTW did he apply for any PPP loans? I wonder...

Dude was one of the foremost experts on the Titanic and its wreck, and it sucks that the world lost such a valuable luminary and historian because some jagoff yahoo decided to Red Green his submarine together with duct tape. The billionaire, the other billionaire, the kid who was going to become a billionaire when his dad died, and the aforementioned millionaire who built a loving submarine out of sheet metal and Xbox controllers? Not so much.

Hopefully they're in a relatively stable position so that the banging can be pinpointed relatively easily and they can try to get a rescue/support ship to them in maybe barely the nick of time. If they're on the surface and just drifting in the ocean currents, that's actually probably the shittiest outcome because they'd actually be in a much more survivable position... IF THEY WEREN'T loving BOLTED INTO THE AIR-TIGHT SUB FROM THE OUTSIDE HOLY poo poo So it could very well be they could find the sub bobbing around on the surface like a cork because its emergency ballast actually did work, but lol it turned into a loving air tight coffin thanks to perma-sealed hatch.

For what it's worth, it's pretty uncertain that the banging was even them. There's a lot of sound bouncing around out in the ocean. My guess is their lovely rear end hull/insufficiently rated porthole gave out and they imploded.
