This whole company and operation sounds like a really expensive way to fuck around and find out.

Thank you for this
Thanks! Will try to get them to work on mobile later.
Goddamn this site feels like the beginning of reddit all over again
I think we’re on a better footing than the dumpsterfire that was Voat
Awesome, thanks a lot!
It’s 0600 EDT as I type this. This time was the projected "best case scenario " for their oxygen supply.
Pogue read aloud from a passenger waiver he signed before riding in the craft that described the Titan as an “experimental submersible vessel that has not been approved or certified by any regulatory body and could result in physical injury, disability, emotional trauma or death.”
I can imagine that all voyages like that have a clause regarding inury/death, but the part about not being approved/certified really should ring your bells…
This is going to sound heartless as hell, but I hope they bill the company and the estates of the passengers for the costs of the rescue effort.
This whole premise, going in a submersible to visit the Titanic, is such a completely unnecessary risk to take, that I have trouble having any sympathy for anyone involved.
It’s not like they were going to have any more of an experience than they would via a submersible rover. They can’t get out of the sub and walk around and touch things. The most they could do is look out a porthole and get a view no different than they’d get from a remote camera. This was just a completely pointless waste by people with more money then sense.
That’ll be a juicy quote for the lawsuit.
I hope this is a valuable learning experience for him
He’ll be sitting there tapping on the hull and freezing his ass off thinking “I’m sure glad I didn’t spend any of my millions on a second backup sub.” Redundancy is for losers.
its one thing to have that attitude when its just your life on the line. its another when you start putting other peoples life in your hands. and something else altogether when youre taking money to put peoples lifes in your hands. fuck that guy.
