I hope there’s some kind of black box… what would be worse than it happenning again one day because we don’t know what happenned.

BBC said that this sub (Titan) was damaged last year, and this was its first dive since being “repaired.”

I’m betting it didn’t have a black box, and we’ll never know if the “repair” was the cause.

Why do you put a 19yo in an untested death trap like this…

That is the worst part to me. This kid’s main interests were Rubik’s cubes and volleyball. At least all these old guys had an interest in the Titanic and knew what they were getting into.

I feel bad for the kid.

It's controlled with a knockoff Xbox controller. I'll bet the "black box" is a cassette recorder bought from Goodwill for $3 and then spray painted black
