I keep thinking about that 19 year old kid and what James Cameron said...that there’s a good chance they heard the sub failing before the implosion. Imagine being that young, not wanting to go in the first place, and then learning “hey those are very bad sounds and we are all about to die, and by the way we have no way back up or out because this isn’t a submarine it’s a deep sea death cylinder”

they had audio sensors installed in the mesh that would have picked up anything before you could hear it and alert them to abort the descent . It failed without warning based on all the available information and no one on board had any idea before they were basically vaporized

Yeah it happened in a fraction of a second. They had no idea

U sure? Didn't they even drop the sub weights basically immediately stoping descent? They only do that because they must have known something is terribly wrong

Indeed, that's what the latest news is saying anyway. A morbid part of me finds it somewhat...fascinating? If they did have a short period of fear and panic, but the better part of me is glad they died instantly and painlessly.

That could’ve happened because of the implosion.

Just under one millisecond, thats shorter than popping a balloon, 13 times faster than the human eye can process vision, just about 50-150 times faster than the human brain can process pain or even feel anything.

If you seriously believe that the game controller submarine had advanced audio sensors to detect failures in the hull then you might want to put down the kool aid

I hate to break it to you, but using a game controller isn't that crazy of an idea. It's intuitive and everyone knows how to use it already. The US military uses them https://taskandpurpose.com/tech-tactics/us-military-video-game-controllers-war/

The game controller gets all the attention meanwhile the submarine was built with plumbing parts from Home Depot and pre-used/expired metals

Difference is the US Military uses them on UNMANNED DRONES. Otherwise they are used in roles where their use does not directly involve being responisble for human lives. They use them on stuff like submarine photonics masts.

honestly incredible you dont understand the difference between a pilotless piece of tech and a vessel carrying 5 human lives.

In retrospect, yes. Regardless, having a video game controller be your one and only method of locomotion on the seafloor is buttfuck stupid.

Especially a Logitech, I wouldn't even trust a Logitech with playing Diablo IV nor controlling a carbon fibre cheaply made submersible, 13,000 feet below the surface and being produced by a rich under-qualified 61 year old.

A 61 year old who had grad students design his sub without any experienced people involved in the process, as they were all left on read after they raised any kind of concerns.

Young minds have their place, ideally as part of a team that includes experienced ones to balance innovation and safety.

%100, dude drank his own kool aid just like ben.

Only difference is Stockon claimed he wanted a diverse team, not just "old white men" his solution was grad students, and nothing against them, but uh, they were cheap hires. All of them. Thats the real reason he hired graduates, he paid the full price in the end though.

Young fresh minds absolutely have their place on a team - but that team should also have actual experienced people on it as well as to maintain a healthy balance between innovation and safety. These guys did not - they consulted a few people and then left them on read after they eventually raised concerns.

One of the criticisms of that acoustic warning device is that it might only detect a flaw milliseconds before a catastrophic loss of pressure. It is so harrowing. I’m just astonished by the hubris of this fucking CEO

But if you listen to the implosion audio, there is a loud crack of the hull buckling or deforming, followed by the actual implosion 2-3 seconds later. They definitely had a moment to realize how fucked they were

It would be waaaaayyyy faster than that.

You wouldn’t even know. First off The surrounding water flash-boiled hotter than the surface of the sun, it compressed in HALF a millisecond. The people inside were absolutely eviscerated. It’s faster than the electrical impulses in their body could reach their brain, and or faster than it takes light to reach your eyes.

You aren’t even biology anymore you are physics now. your individual cells don’t even survive that. You’re just particles.

Yeah, still, its best to just remember them for what they did for the earth positively, Stockton Rush, Hamish Harding (one who I exceptionally was a fan of prior to his death) Suleman and his dad Shahzada Dawood along with Paul-Henri Nargeolet were all great people in the end.

Nah they were all about themselves.

They were greedy and thought that they were better than everyone else and that was their demise, they thought that they were invincible.

Good riddance to them.

Oh, it get's worse. The carbon fibre he bought was expired carbon fibre for cheap from Boeing. Expired meaning it was already used before and it has lost it's structural integrity and is no longer useful for building purposes. It's a feat how they managed to be as cheap as possible in every aspect of construction and operation.

Ight I’m just going to say this, cuz I notice a lot of people don’t comprehend how crazy/how fast this was. People think they were crushed like you get crushed in a car accident no.

Yes exactly, no pain. you don’t even know what happened. you can’t register it.

Thinking about the 19 year old kid just made me sad, even nowadays when Im in my 140s I still tear up at the thought of someone dying against their will at a young age and having nothing they can do about it.

I've seen the families of these people get harassed online and sent simulation videos of the implosion, its sad and miserable to see how they just dealt with the death of 5 great people with thoughts and aspirations.
