AMIT Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) 4 hours ago, JustHoran said: People making fun of people dying just because they were rich Terrible. I mean, they found themselves in this kind of set up because they were rich. Not saying this to justify or excuse anyone ''celebrating'' this though, that's just tasteless. But I don't think you can fault anyone for not feeling bad for them. They weren't in a mission to find a cure for a 3rd world disease or something, they were there because that kind of money allowed them to, money that could be much better spent elsewhere. But most rich people are greedy and selfish and don't think twice about ruining the lives of others just so they can get and/or maintain their lifestyle, so can you really judge people for not feeling sorry for them?

umich Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 1 hour ago, Winged said: 'Landing frame and a rear cover from the submersible' among the debris We have just had an update from dive expert David Mearns, who says the debris includes "a landing frame and a rear cover from the submersible". Mearns is a friend of passengers aboard the Titan. David Mearns has told the BBC that the president of the Explorers Club (which is connected to the diving and rescue community), says the debris includes "a landing frame and a rear cover from the submersible". Also: Quote The debris discovered within the search area of the missing Titanic submersible has been assessed to be from the external body of the sub, according to a memo reviewed by CNN. The search for the crew capsule of the Titan vessel continues, the memo says. The debris was located on the ocean floor, roughly 500 meters off of the bow of the Titanic, and it was located around 8:55 a.m. ET. So is it in a different debris field perhaps?
Orsay Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 so is it confirmed they imploded? well at least thats quick and painless and they didn't have to spend days in blacked out terror sitting in eachothers' waste, waiting to suffocate RIP

I hope the utter lack of empathy is just forced pretence cause if not would somebody PLEASE think of the rich, naive men?! 5 1 1

Did the TEENAGER going with his dad spend millions of dollars to lobby the world's governments? No? Don't know? Then you can afford to show some empathy 1
Domination Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 4 minutes ago, umich said: Also: So is it in a different debris field perhaps? CNN is hesitant to report that simply due to the credibility of the statement. The implication of the press conference along with the reports about debris relating to the craft means that it is likely true but not official.
Shelter Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 1 minute ago, suburbannature said: People laughing about five tragic deaths while being just wanted to fulfill a dream of seeing the Titanic. Empathy is free. I have always been interested in Titanic but I don’t get why anyone would want to go down and see it through a tiny window. Also no one cares about the sister ship Britannic which is not as deep or dangerous. Just go visit that instead. Titanic should be off limits. We have seen everything there is to see at this point.
harwee Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Yeah I try not to make fun of death. But I don't like people who tell me I shouldnt then turn around making fun of people, dead or alive, on another thread. 1 1

harwee Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Also,, I feel like the location is supposed to be protected historical location. https://news.un.org/en/story/2012/04/408092 Did anyone ask why they're there in the first place? In a waay they disrespected a memorial, the environment (given the site is already falling apart as it is). How do we know these tourists aren't taking souvenirs, etc. Its commercial exploitation of a tragedy. Just cause they can, or their money can?
Sombre Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 OceanGate just confirmed that the people have "sadly lost".
WildAmerican Posted June 22, 2023 Author Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) They're presumed to be dead, according to the official press conference. Edited June 22, 2023 by WildAmerican
Starshine Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Well RIP. I find this situation even more bizarre than the Titanic itself.
Sombre Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) Not to sound insensitive but I hope we get to see pics of the debris. Edit: 5 confirmed "major" debris pieces Edited June 22, 2023 by Sombre 1 1
Jotham Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Debris is reportedly consistent with a catastrophic implosion

You can't feel empathy for four adults dying? Do a bit of self-examining about why you're so desensitized rather than being so wildly myopic. 7

In a way there are some parallels with how both suffered their fate partly through hubris in the face of nature’s forces + warnings from the outside
Sombre Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 are they certain that it imploded on Sunday at ~7:45am, or could it have imploded like maybe on Monday? does anyone know?
OnlyManInTheWorld Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 I’m so tired of this being all over the news
