I haven't seen it in this thread, but you know what the best part about this is? They're literally bolted into this god damn thing from the outside lmao. What a bunch of clowns.

Cracking open and drowning sounds awful
but preferable to some of the other ways to go down there |

Again, the pressures at those depths are just beyond comprehension. There wasn't some slow drip and a drowning like The Abyss. If anything went even a little bit wrong and the hull was breached, those guys were dead within a couple seconds - TOPS.

Here's what I don't get - don't we have extremely powerful sonar sensors all over the place out there?
If it imploded, those sensors are gonna pick up the noise. It's not gonna be a gentle squish. Yet it seems like governments (us included) are still sending help out there. So wouldn't that suggest that we don't think it crumpled up like a beer can? The absolute worst possibility would seem to be getting to the surface, being lost because your tether snapped and slowly asphyxiating while you're literally above the water.

Yeah - I suppose they got it right once.
I was thinking of the scene where Ed Harris's ex wife (mary elizabeth mastrantino or something like that) drown herself to get towed. I mean c'mon - if you've got water coming in through an opening like that, how's a compromised hull not gonna buckle like it's made of tinfoil?

this tweet makes me think there was a catastrophic hull breach they had 7 different ways to surface, and the final 7th should have been an automatic surface by time, using a sand clock which wouldnt fail due to electric issues.....so if the ballasts failed and the sand clock failed i think it has to be a hull failure

I don't think it's likely that it's caught on debris near the Titanic and I believe that at some point between Sunday and now that it imploded due to a breach, which to be quite honest, would be the most merciful way to go out in this instance. What DJLN said would be the absolute worst way, or being stuck at the bottom with virtually no possible chance at anyone being able to recover the vessel and pop it open in time. |
