also the more I think about it, there's no way they were at the ocean floor. If they didn't implode, it would've been a power or comms failure, and they would have dropped the ballast (which can be done with or without power) they either died instantly, or at the surface, I think. should've installed a GPS beacon ya dinguses

smoobles posted:they would have dropped the ballast (which can be done with or without power) You've made the fatal mistake of thinking they can easily drop the ballast like a normal sub. To drop the ballast in this terrible sub they needed to get the sub to rock around until the weights fell off. It wasn't like just pull a lever and drop the big weight, it was move around and hope enough small weights fall off and they'd had problems with it before. Hell, in normal operation this thing wasn't even supposed to surface on its own, it was supposed to dock with the platform thing for the last 100m or so, probably because their method to deballast the sub was SO bad. There's literally so many things wrong with this sub that we actually have no idea what happened.

Probably another red flag is taking a ride with the CEO himself who maybe viewed himself a hotshot and was prone to showboating more than any of the other pilots. I think about that B-52 crash in 1994 where the hotshot pilot flew too low and at an extreme bank angle and ate it along with his crew. He had a history of performing risky maneuvers and if I remember correctly some other officer rode along to oversee his behavior on that doomed flight. Maybe that was the role of the french dood that was aboard Titan.

People keep saying this but in that Mexican youtuber's video they release it using the gamepad. Where did people get that idea? I can't find a source for it. Mind you, it definitely wouldn't surprise me if it was true considering everything else.

It wasn't like just pull a lever and drop the big weight, it was move around and hope enough small weights fall off and they'd had problems with it before. Supposedly the ballast was meant to auto release after 24hrs.  quote:Crew members are told they can release the ballast by rocking the ship or use a pneumatic pump to knock the weights free, Newman said. If all else fails, he said, the lines securing the ballast are designed to fall apart after 24 hours to automatically send it back to the ocean’s surface. So I guess... 1) All of this hosed up at once/it didn't work at all. 2) It never even existed or 3) It imploded within the first 24 hours.

I feel like that's a different sound You can make things implode in air, plenty of videos in the thread of examples already, it's very loud when lots of air is displaced when an object suddenly loses volume, it's sides rapidly hitting each other. The sub at those depths would have imploded even harder than anything achieved by a hollow container on the surface.

Isn't that the video that shows them wanting to drop one sandbag from the left-(or right)-hand-side, but instead it dropped two from both sides? Could be that they realised that the electronic method was unreliable so they went with good ol' fashioned human power

my theory is the sub made it to the bottom and while moving around got caught on something, and that is the banging sounds heard on sonar. the sub then either eventually imploded after a bit or the guys were alive and then froze to death within a few hours
