Again I don't think it's necessary to link to Oil London's Twitter, where he's also advertising his upcoming book about how transitioning is child abuse. Like I get that it's a very concise explanation of how an implosion would kill someone so fast they'd never even notice it, but maybe just copy and paraphrase it like you're copying someone's homework?

there were no audio comms with the sub, how would they hear the implosion? highly doubt that sound would propagate (audibly to somebody on a ship or something) to the surface from 13k ft if they mean they were just listening from a boat

Aren't these alarms just meant to give enough of a warning in larger vessels for one last desperate scramble to try and seal off the ruptured compartments with bulkhead hatches, so that there's enough unflooded breathing space while you wait for the rescue?

I really don't think that's the case.

The air is super-hot, but it takes time for heat to conduct from the air into a solid object. You can put your hand into a hot oven and your hand isn't instantly cooked. Wave your hand through an open flame, the fire is even hotter than the oven but in the shorter time you're still fine. Get compressed in an imploding sub... even hotter, but it's over in microseconds.

Like, do that compression cylinder demo video youtube above with a bit of beef fat instead of cotton fluff and I very much doubt it lights on fire.


The physical impact and rupture is gonna leave everything very trashed, so still no recoverable bodies. But they weren't vaporized.

- $250,000 a ticket
- A cheap Bluetooth Logitech controller prone to disconnects and failures.
- Tiny bolts holding the hatch in place.
- Using carbon fiber for the hull and not titanium.
- The acrylic porthole was only rated for 1,500 meters.
- Firing (and suing!) the safety engineer for refusing to certify the sub.
- Refusing to x-ray the carbon fiber after pressure testing.
- On one of the excursions, one of the impellors was installed backward.
They "fixed" it by using the controller at a 90-degree angle.
- The CEO refused to hire industry experts and wanted "new innovative blood."
- The CEO removed audio contact with the support vessel because it was too noisy.
- The support vessel knew they imploded for three days without telling anyone.
- PPP loan forgiveness.

They imploded at 1,300 feet and that sound wave would absolutely be heard at those depths.

there are no alarms like that on a normal sub. it's a complete joke to think you can monitor hull integrity like that. because everything important happens in milliseconds as explained. highly loaded up composite frames such as a aircraft are extensively tested and analyzed every 3 years using stuff like ultrasonics to find stress fractures, subsurface hairline cracks.. extremely small deformations a stress strain sensor would not pick up. This is very expensive and requires very knowledgeable people to do the work. I like to think of as paving a road, throwing down a single hair, paving over it, and then trying to detect it later.

edit: don't quote me on the 3 years interval

You also get a nice mechanical mixing to homogenate from the pressure wave at which point the contents are free to seek the same temperature as the compressing bulk air.

Again, I will reiterate that Oceangate's primary financial asset is in pieces at the bottom of the sea and their CEO has been forcibly disintegrated into the tides. Outside of the fees for this trip and the three or so others (which the funds from may not even exist since they apparently had to rebuild the hull due to it breaking at one point) that have been mentioned what can they even get out of suing?

Also, the knowledge that the boat knew it imploded puts that tweet by the Oceangate exec in a new light. "I'm going to take a nap and I expect results from the government to bail us out of this or names will be named." comes off a lot more conniving in light of that knowledge, assuming they knew.
