Google Jeb Bush posted:also a teen and an insane French old guy The teen is the only person I feel bad for. The old guy is in his 70's and while I'm sure he was planning on living longer, going out doing something wildly stupid in your late 70s and making world news over it is not bad way to go out.

Say what you will about elite billionaires, but if there's anyone who could build, and this is important, also pilot a submarine made out of carbon fiber, it'd be Elon Musk. He's the smartest most bestest inventor alive and he could definitely do it.

Stoop Kid posted:This was fascinating, what a rescue If you haven't seen it, you need to watch a 2019 documentary called "Last Breath", about a commercial diver stranded on the seabed after his umbilical got sheared off, with only five minutes of oxygen supply and no chance of rescue for more than 30 minutes. I think it's on Netflix or Apple TV?

I just read Futility: The Wreck of the Titan, and uh spoiler warning for a 125-year-old novel but it raised a legal question: In the book, the Titan hits an iceberg while the sailor on lookout was drunk, which voids the Titan's insurance policy. The only person alive to testify to this fact is the sailor himself, and he freely tells the insurance company's lawyers. When he learns that the child he rescued from the wreck will get a large inheritance if the insurance is paid out, he refuses to testify. Would this be some kind of insurance fraud?
