ThehushSound Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 I know due to legal stuff the media can’t say the passengers are dead because we don’t have any physical proof (bodies). But the presumed dead kills me, like do y’all think this is The Abyss and some Alien ass mothafuckers saved them before the craft imploded?

They lost communication at 1:45 hours into their trip which is when people are guessing the submarine imploded.

Baby Judas Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Think of the millions and millions of $$$ spent mobilizing the ships, the submarines etc to find the wreckage. Would this have been a big deal if these were just ordinary people and not billionaires with political ties? Hmm.. I hope the oceangate company is paying all of that, not the ordinary taxpayers.

Sergi91 Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 It’s sad this happened. I feel for them not because they were rich but because they were humans too with families… especially the young guy 2
EriKills Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 (edited) This is so sad, especially given how avoidable this all was. I'd like to think literal BILLIONAIRES truly believed the submarine was safe. We NOW see just how (almost comically) bad this submarine was built, but did they know that...probably not? Given the 100% confidence in safety from the CEO and him attending every trip, the fact there had already been previous expeditions to the Titanic with this very sub as well as other subs, that if each trip is costing a quarter of a million dollars per person, you would assume they are using the best and safest material for the submarine no matter the cost, especially given the importance of the clientele. I still can't help feeling bad for them idk. Of course they never should have done such a pointless trip to the Titanic in the first place, but if they were to then they definitely should have done more research. but like I said above I can see why they didn't think it would be as dangerous as it ended up being (hindsight is 20/20) that trash CEO gets NO sympathy though. Straight up LYING and saying his submarine was "obscenely SAFE" despite a worker lichrally being fired for having safety concerns no safety inspections. Failed trial runs. Skimping on material for the submarine (using a combo of titanium and carbon fibre instead of just titanium, I assume because it was CHEAPER)...death was inevitable. And he knew all this and still was charging people a fortune to go on these trips. He can ROT Edited June 22, 2023 by EriKills 1

There won't be any physical proof of the bodies because they evaporated immediately when the implosion happened. They literally do not exist in any physical shape or form anymore.

Misguided Ghost Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 It's so tragic, especially for the families grieving their loved ones. Condolences to all of them. At the same time it's ridiculous that all of those grown people (minus this young guy) willingly put themselves in a situation like this. They chose to be put on a fragile tiny capsule to travel into the deep sea to watch Titanic through a tiny window for literally minutes.
Coldpurry Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Implosion is the worst case scenario I would rather run out of oxigen but have a slim chance of survival...

mystery Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 Titanic almost collided with the SS New York right before it departed. The suction of its propellers was so strong it drew the other ship in. Weird to think how if that collision happened none of this would be going on right now. Titanic would have gone for repairs and done its maiden voyage at another time, it wouldn't have struck an iceberg and would have gotten sunk during WWI or scrapped for parts. Most importantly all the people who perished on it would have survived, going on to do and affect things that would for sure impact the world in a way that would make it just different to the one we know today. The people on the sub would have no wreck to die trying to dive to.
Vermillion Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 And there you have it. They never stood a chance.

Yes it would. Like I said before. Was it only rich people on other disasters like MH370. They can’t just say ok we ain’t going to look for it.
Magdalene Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 if they were just stuck in the sub with nowhere to go, slowly losing oxygen while panic sets in that you won’t escape, if any of them puked and or died in the sub and you’re unable to do anything about the smells, probably going crazy with the lack of space implosion sadly really was the best way to go, it’s so instantaneous

Lost In Paradise Posted June 22, 2023 Posted June 22, 2023 I really hope they can hold someone else at the company accountable. underneath a crazy CEO there are usually at least a few enablers. James Cameron was able to go down 33 times, and on one of those times he got stuck for 16 hours, and yet still returned safely. this company clearly just wanted to take advantage of crazy billionaires and secure the most profit possible, meaning cutting costs at literally every corner. who are the investors? was there a board of directors?

You would rather sit in a completely dark cramped space for literal days in hope of someone finding you, until oxygen run out? That’s a literal nightmare. Even if that was the case they would all be dead by the time that vessel would make it up to surface
