They say it on page 340/510, it's far from their last words
It's not even the final words in the screenshot lmao
It's the last by that speaker though?
Sure, but it says last recorded broadcast of the ship, not the person
You’re hired
From the source 2M has spoken at 7:26, hours afterwards
Yeah, but you said the screenshot
He still said it during a life or death situation. I respect that.
The last few pages of the transcript are chilling. I don't know who this helmsman, AB-1, is, but I deeply feel for them.
(Implied) heavy content

Yeah I read the Wikipedia page and it went from "rhut row" to downright depressing real quick
On October 5, an unidentified body in a survival suit, presumed to be from El Faro, was found but was not recovered. According to the rescue diver, the body was unrecognizable, its head three times normal size
how tf does that happen?
My guess is a combination of bloating from decomposition and, more importantly, pressure from the depths
waterlogged, cells are swollen with ocean water probably
classic boneswell of the skull
I started looking for confirmation a bit ago and really appreciate your source. A search for ‘Merchant Mariner Ship ruh roh’ led me to the El Faro, but no articles contained the actual quote. On my phone browser it was quoted on 339, just as a heads up for anyone else.
