I don’t think they could blow the hatch from inside anyway. It was all bolted in from outside, from what little I know of this submersible. It’s more likely they hit the thermacline and it was catastrophically breached due to a defect somewhere.

We'll never know, but I wonder if they had any warning at all. With those pressures, I can see it going from "everything's fine" to "squished" in milliseconds. At least it seems like they wouldn't have suffered much this way.

Reason #5 to make sure all bolts are within proper torque specifications.

I wonder if the window was the culprit. Probably will never know for sure though

One of the reporters at the end asked "are the bodies going to be recovered?" Really? |

I have no compunction with the pile-on at CP. That's what we do and I'm proud to be a part of it. But the social media celebrating is a bit much...

There aren't really separate bodies at this point. Just a compressed lump of mush. They might be able to find DNA traces if they bring the craft to the surface.

I just hope nobody is lost retrieving whatever is left of them. That would be a real tragedy. As it stands right now, this whole mess is just the billionaire edition of play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

James Cameron, who does know a thing or two about submersibles and ocean depth, depicted an implosion in The Abyss. It's from Hollywood but still ....

I'm not sure people fully appreciate how extreme the pressures are we're talking about here. It's somewhere around 400 atmospheres, so about 400x the pressure we're used to. Or in psi, it would be about 6,000 psi. Even calling it "mush" is probably being generous.
