The BBC interviewed the co-founder of Oceangate and his opinion was "minor set back let's keep going." quote:Söhnlein, who left OceanGate 10 years ago, said he would not have acted differently in the circumstances. Personally I would have chosen not to implode by paying customers, but I guess that's why I'm not an innovator.

eviltastic posted:The company that made those is also marketing a submersible that they call the Titanic Explorer because it can supposedly do that. No apparent public price, unless you count a rando unsourced Daily Mail headline. But presumably it costs less than the one owned by Gabe Newell that's rated for ten thousand feet below the deepest point that exists in the ocean. This tracks. The wealthiest people I know are also the cheapest.

This could be a great game show idea for Netflix. Have a bunch of teams assemble a sub using only from items purchased at Lowe's or Home Depot. The teams that make it all the way down to the Titanic win 2 million dollars and a t shirt They could even have a competition within the teams to determine who has to be in the sub for the dive.

Calling it, the sub was fine until it barely bumped the seabed, this force was enough to push over the edge and completely shatter the hull.

How long was the death-tube supposed to take to reach the ocean floor? Iirc the entire expedition was ten hours but I can't recall reading how long the descent took.

its wild thinking about being a billionaire and how on the surface you had enough money to buy small countries and build gundams and have sex with 2 chicks at the same time, but for 90 hours until you die you just gotta sit in the fart vapors thinking about how all that money holds no value at the bank of davy jones. this didnt happen, they instantly imploded into nickelodean gak, but its fun to think about
