Codependent Poster posted:lol they're dead. No way they drowned. If there was *any* way for water to get into the sub, it'd be coming in with enough pressure to cause a rapid unplanned disassembly of the sub and kill them instantly. But don't forget the wildcard option: freezing to death. It's highly doubtful they were equipped with compressed O2 in significant excess of the duration of their planned excursion; but if by some chance they did bring enough air, they certainly don't have enough electrical power to keep heat running to hold back the chill of the 2°C water they're immersed in for very long. And once the power goes out, a metal tube is going to get cold very quickly.

Necessary job qualifications: * At least 6,000-8,000 hours experience with a game controller * Able to operate under pressure * One, ideally two working fingers to press the button. * Ability to text at 20 WPM * Documented body compressibility ratio of at least 160:1 * High school diploma, or equivalent work experience.

I'll be having a sub sandwich for lunch today, in remembrance of the souls and the billionaires who were sandwiched within a sub when it violently imploded upon them.

Hang on a second. Rolling the sub isn't going to do poo poo to get that emergency ballast off the hook. Because the hook itself is a free-hanging S-hook, so as the sub rolls, the hook will move in the same direction and keep the ballast attached. You'd have to roll the sub the other way to disengage the top of the S-hook from whatever its attached to; and if you're doing that then the emergency ballast still wouldn't disengage because by that point the ballast will be sitting on the body of the sub itself and the ballast's weight will no longer be providing force to rotate the S-hook.

Pekinduck posted:I think the s-hook is welded to the pipes That appears to be true but does not fix the problem that the orientation of the top of the S-hook is such that the sub would need to be rotated ballast up to disengage that S-hook. The angle on the top of that S-hook would necessitate >90 degrees of rotation, and if you're rotating that much, the ballast itself is probably resting on the sub and no longer torquing the S-hook.

Live video of the submersible (a pressure differential of 14.7 PSI, for reference).

Shaman Tank Spec posted:So, if I'm not messing my calculations up... roughly 1/277 of the pressure difference compared to the depth the sub dropped out of contact at, 2800m? Yeah more or less. So imagine that, but 277 times more powerful.
