Im referring to the quote about hiring young pilots.
Sure, he said that. But it doesn't appear he actually did that as he himself, a 61 year old man, did the piloting. So to say, "this happened because he wanted young pilots", seems rather pointless. Unless you want to make the point that you believe this happened because of a failure to find a pilot young enough, therefore he did it himself. But i'd venture to guess he didn't find a pilot because he's a cheap bastard and would rather do it himself. Could also be that he thought he was the best pilot for the job since they're his subs.

I don’t think his desire to hire young people was just about saving money. Sure that was part of it, but I think bigger than that was he could avoid having people on his projects who would have more knowledge and experience to question what he was doing with regards to designing and building the thing. It wasn’t lost on him that the submarine community was not happy with his projects but he didn’t care and just wanted to get things done seemingly as quickly as possible, but also with a dash of ego that he could do things better than whatever industry standards exist.

IF I was a real asshole who did tik tac, I'd probably make a video of this submarine with the "dumb ways to die" song.

So was it just recently that they got a ROVs down there? Seems like if the submarine or its debris field was near the Titanic it would have been spotted pretty quick once the ROVs started working.

If it imploded that would’ve been the best thing for them instead of just sitting down there waiting to die.

Underwater remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) were deployed Thursday morning to search the Atlantic Ocean floor for OceanGate's Titan submarine, which vanished Sunday morning with five passengers onboard.
