Dark thought for literally the darkest day of the year: if the Titanic submarine guests killed the CEO, they could extend oxygen for another day.
Hamish Harding has quite the resume. Bit of legend.
He is the second Blue Origin passenger to die. The first one was Glen de Vries in a small plane crash.
Am I the only person that doesn't see this as a tragedy? A voluntary dangerous venture to satisfy someone's ego.
Same with people dying on Mt Everest. No one is forcing them to do the climb.
Mt Everest is way worse. That's littering.
I think untimely deaths are tragic inherently. There are certainly degrees to tragedy though, and I agree that this is less tragic than most. It's just a big story because it's quite a spectacular incident.
Oh for sure. It's a high profile event, but I can't seem to see it past 'play stupid games, win stupid prizes'
Nope. Unless the sub has the equivalent of the sun in lights you wouldn’t see shit anyway. It’s all going to be covered in sand and undersea debris. It’s a flex to say you’ve been, no one’s actually interested in seeing shit cause you WONT see much.
Why stop at killing one? Survival of the fittest!
the 19 year old might need the knowledge of the scientist
Good point. I can see you've thought this through
I'd be concerned that a rotting body might consume more oxygen.
That's why you eat it
Preferably before the rotting
Very much anticipating the outcome rubs hands like raccoon so much room for imagination as to what happened. I'm impressed that the oxygen could last them 96 hours though. That's something.
Initial accident trying to stay calm, trying to establish communication, testing all the systems, beginning to blame the CEO, learning about the maximum time they have, rationing the food and drinks they brought, the toilet filling up and god forbid someone needs to poop, REALLY blaming the CEO, maybe some other system failing. I seriously doubt they'll survive but if they do it will be a horror movie. They don't even need to change the crew for extra personalities. The scientist knew the risk. The aviator knows engineering. The CEO has been cutting corners. And two passengers are family.
I knowwwww. I mean it's gonna be a miracle and a half to get them back. I definitely think there may have been a scene where the billionaire goes to the CEO "I'll give you half of my money, get me outta here!!" shaking him violently by the shoulders and then someone tries to stop the billionaire tripping some switch off.
And the sub is so tiny they cannot even stand in it. It'll be a core muscles-straining half bend half crawl over to the CEO.
