Titanic Tourist Submarine Goes Missing

[ste d' indica]

Yeah... there's gonna be claims and counter claims, and a lot of accusations to come. But not even a little surprised at this.

Best guess is that its suffered a catastrophic power outage, no idea how it will have plummet to the ocean bed without controls, it'll have been engineered to survive much more pressure than expected to endure (basic engineering percentages) but is life support operational automatic or were they burning oxygen a matter of hours into the operation. They could well be sat in pitch black and cold, with a couple of sandwiches and a bottle of water between em. Sub could be on its side or upside down, no idea what fail safes for comms are built in, auto sos buoy? A very grim situation to face. Apparently there's at least one sub lost with all lives (three) previously?

It sounds like the guy that built lashed it together from the spare part bin at B&Q & Gamestation. His idea of rigorous testing was probably to put it in a paddling pool.
The viewing window looks like it’s off a washing machine ffs!

Has Elon Musk tried calling anyone a paedophile yet?

Came in here to make this joke, not disappointed it's been done already

Hindsight is 20/20.

Yes that is the lesson. If I’d seen this before getting in I’d have walked away….



I mean ffs…..

 

[Blue peter]

Seriously, people pay as a tourist to go and see the Titanic?

Ironic isn’t it - hope they’re found safe

 

[Yarrgh]

Yes that is the lesson. If I’d seen this before getting in I’d have walked away….

If you can't tie a knot, tie a lot.

I can’t get my head around it, they are taking it down to a wreck where bits stick out and have fallen off before, and leave so many snagging opportunities. Even the whales might fancy a chew on them…….

It’s incredibly sad of course, if that things on the bottom then they’ve got no chance. Not a chance you’re raising that from -4000m in less than two days. Can’t believe that celine dion in playing on loop as well, I’d just open the hatch and be done with it.
