In that scene, he gets into an escape pod that has the air pressure as the vessel at the bottom of the ocean, which is the same as the water pressure at that depth. So, the pressure in the escape pod is not changing as he ascends but he explodes anyway, despite there being no Delta P inside the escape pod. Now, if he reached the surface and opened the hatch without decompressing, yes. A big mess. Or perhaps I'm missing something.

I wonder what countries can do in the future to prevent this?
Since the voyage occurred in international waters, the only thing I could think of would be countries banning companies that have commercial vessels that aren't tested and certified from being on their soil/water? |

It is true that he is absolutely full of himself. And he's a d-bag. I wonder about pretentious, though, because he has actually been actively involved with submersibles for decades now. He's even descended into the Mariana trench. I figure that when it comes to this type of event, he has a lot more practical experience and knowledge than large swathes of the population so I would listen to what he has to say. If he's talking about other matters, not so much.

wouldn't you imagine that they were turned into crab patties and pretty much consumed by whatever creatures exist down there. I mean, I can't even imagine there was any structure left to their carcasses after implosion

Boeing flat-out said they never worked with OceanGate and UW said the only relationship was they let OceanGate use their facilities for testing (without any UW faculty present or having any input), and NASA saying they only recommended some inputs for the design and nothing else. I could see how someone could say **** it if they believed OceanGate had meaningful relationships with reputable institutions and experts, but in this instance it seems that the summary of their relationships were either extrapolated or outright inaccurate. This whole search costs $$$. And while it is purposeful to help people out in need, you can't just consistently spend time and $$$ to try to rescue people in dire conditions that are in a vessel that cut corners on safety regulations. |

Yes, same with the Abyss implosion scene. I get that it's a movie, but it's always bugged me.
I remember watching that scene as a kid with one of my brothers. One who doesn't understand a thing about science/physics. I got punched in the head, again.
