Am I the only person that doesn't see this as a tragedy? A voluntary dangerous venture to satisfy someone's ego.
Same with people dying on Mt Everest. No one is forcing them to do the climb.
Mt Everest is way worse. That's littering.
I think untimely deaths are tragic inherently. There are certainly degrees to tragedy though, and I agree that this is less tragic than most. It's just a big story because it's quite a spectacular incident.
Oh for sure. It's a high profile event, but I can't seem to see it past 'play stupid games, win stupid prizes'
Nope. Unless the sub has the equivalent of the sun in lights you wouldn’t see shit anyway. It’s all going to be covered in sand and undersea debris. It’s a flex to say you’ve been, no one’s actually interested in seeing shit cause you WONT see much.
