Crew of Titan sub believed to be dead after 'catastrophic implosion'
The bodies may never be recovered, the US Coast Guard says, after debris from the vessel was found.
The US Coast Guard is giving a press conference following discovery of debris from the sub.
I feel sorry for the 19 year old, who was terrified and didn’t want to go but went because it was Father’s Day weekend.
That CEO, though, he got what he earned.
Oh no.
Anyway, there are thousands of refugees getting drowned every day and they don't pay $250K to kill themselves and their kids in a sub made by a guy who thinks safety is stupid.
Wow, relax, dude. This isn't reddit.
People are so mad about other people having opinions on billionaires doing stupid things lol
This is getting way more attention than it deserves indeed. Random guys made a terrible decision and died. Aside from one being a billionaire, one his hesitant son and the way they died being quite unique, this is hardly worth more than one news segment.
I don't even know who that guy was or why I should care. Way more people probably died while I was writing this.

Now imagine this, but deeper down, where the water pressure is even higherEdit: Mythbusters - Tanker Implosion (SFW)
Video #1 looks like an awful way to go - I thought I'd read somewhere that it would be somewhat instant and the meat man suit looked far longer than instant.
This was a controlled depressurization (they used a release valve and let the pressure creep in). This shows what the pressure can do over time. Now image that be happening instant because the structure holding back the pressure failed all at once.
Well yeah, the entire implosion takes a little longer than an instant; but the death itself would be fractions of a second. The "body" in that suit was dead long before the blood started falling out its head.
