Carpet posted:I don't think there'll be any money left to pay him after the families of the billionaires have settled their lawsuits. Based on interviews, new stories, and the nervous laugh the CEO gave explaining that actually he’s losing money on the trips when he got interviewed 6 months ago I don’t think they’ll be any money for those lawsuits either. It sounds like a really rich guy realized there was a limited amount of time before the Titanic wreck had degraded too much for him to bilk billionaires out of their money to see it, and he completely underestimated how expensive and complicated deep sea tourism was so he tried to fake it to make it by building a cheap sub and hoped everything would work out for him.

buglord posted:Yeah as far as dying goes this seems like the quickest way to go about it. And if it’s faster than a nerve impulse you at least can’t feel it, let alone perceive it? They've found shoes at the titanic wreck, albeit obviously covered in dirt and often whatever grows down there. Keep in mind however that the Titanic wasn't a pressurized vessel collapsing rapidly inwards, and just sank instead. Big problem is that if it imploded there probably weren't shoes left to find. Everything got annihilated inside of that sub once it imploded, and it's parts of the hull that are left to drift to the bottom. Archonex fucked around with this message at 21:33 on Jun 22, 2023 |

A pressure wave is a pressure wave. There's video of clothes being blast off people where wheels explode nearby, but the person is still in once piece. The clothing will be just as torn apart as your bones would be at that force.

Obviously we have no way of knowing what explicitly went down but from a physics standpoint of what should happen if the sub were to implode at a 4km depth, everything inside was flash fried at tens of thousands of degrees celcius by the air in the sub igniting from the sudden drastic pressure increase and then subsequently crushed. The clothes are ash.

Something I don't quite understand is how the water rushes into the breach, rather than simply falling with gravity. Is the entire water column under a bit of tension, and then once there's an opening in the pressure vessel, that tension forces the water in?

The clothes are ash. As a side note, do we know for sure it was at 4000 meters and not descending? What I saw of the presser seemed vague on that point. Obviously unless they were close to the surface there isn't going to be anything left to find. I'm just wondering at what depth this thing gave out given that the windows alone were supposedly only rated for 1.3k-1.6k meters.

I don't think anything gets totally incinerated, there's just not enough time before the water hits it a microsecond later. The air gets heated up to super-high temperatures because it's rapidly compressed, and the partial pressure of oxygen is so high that some things would start to spontaneously combust... but there's near-zero time to actually burn.

Were there flammables keeping the ship running or does physics get funny when this much stuff happens at once in such a short period of time? Compressing air causes its temperature to rise. This is at an extremely basic level how a diesel engine works: air is injected into an ignition chamber and them compressed until it's very hot, then fuel is injected which combusts at that heat level, driving the piston and creating work. For reference, a diesel engine compresses air from one atmo to 15-23 atmos. The sub imploding would have been a compression from one atmo to four hundred atmos. That generates enough heat to ignite basically anything, the people and things inside instantaneously burned up like fuel in a diesel engine.

Think of the hull like a giant piston in a diesel motor crushing the air bubble in less than 1 second. The sheer speed/friction of the event causes the air to superheat and turn anything organic into ash.

So the entire point of waivers is to prevent the company from facing a lawsuit because it then legally puts the sole responsibility of risk on the participant, but I bet these waivers were just written in MSWord by the CEO from some template he found online and were never reviewed by any lawyer because he's a dumbass cheapskate. What am saying is I hope the waivers are deemed invalid and they get super sued.
