A search and rescue operation is currently underway to locate a submarine that went missing during an expedition to the Titanic.
The U.S. Coast Guard was looking for the submarine Monday morning after it disappeared during the expedition from St. John's, N.L. The infamous 1912 wreck is located more than 600 kilometres southeast of the province in the North Atlantic Ocean.
The trip to the Titanic was being run by OceanGate Expeditions, a U.S.-based company. It uses a five-person submersible named Titan to reach the wreckage 3,800 metres below the surface. OceanGate's website advertises a seven-night voyage to the Titanic for US$250,000 per person, or approximately CA$330,000.
"We are exploring and mobilizing all options to bring the crew back safely," an OceanGate spokesperson said in an email to CTV News. "Our entire focus is on the crewmembers in the submersible and their families."


Those tours are a series of five eight-day missions to the Titanic with the money raised by tourists going towards Titanic research. Posts on social media show the ship launched from the St. John's area last week.

Did they really have 5 people in this?? Or do they have a larger version??

It is weird to think that we’ve had submarines on earth for 250ish years, but it’s still some awesome challenge to go 2 miles deep. It’s so tough to do that if you get stuck down there you’re just ****ed. Nobody can save you.

Coincidence? I think not!

They both have a creamy center?

Neither are big enough to insert a Chiefsplanet sized cock into.

Which shows how more wild the advancements we've made with space tech over the course of basically 60-70 years.

I made this thread not knowing the depths
of emotions that would arise
from the bottom of;
my heart, thank you breathlessly
it has breathed in me new life
to have others to ride or die with
like you fellow travelers & semen

I just saw that they heard 'Banging" down there. I just can't imagine them having sex at this time.

Yeah hey, sometimes people get their dicks eaten off in international waters where no laws prevail

It was a tonka toy compared to something like the Trieste... Ultimate Death Defying Exploration on the cheap, what could go wrong?

Just seems like some govt agency should've stepped in and saved them from themselves

Best decision this dude made... apparently he bailed out when he saw the Xbox controller

A multi-millionaire who planned to join the passengers of the submersible missing in the North Atlantic depths said he backed out after learning the vehicle is steered with a cheap video game controller. The Sun reported that 61-year-old Chris Brown had agreed to join Hamish Harding, one of the missing passengers, on the sub while the pair were vacationing on an island owned by Richard Branson. Brown, who reportedly met Harding on a trip to Antarctica in 2016, put down an 80,000 euro deposit, but backed out after learning more about the ship’s steering apparatus. “We decided the risks were too high in this instance, even though I’m not one to shy away from risk,”

It's weird how much attention people are paying to the controller. They're used all over the place, including some uses by the Navy.

I'd be much more concerned about the other systems.
