From what I heard they had two bottles for urine and a bag to deficate in. It would have been freezing and extremely humid inside after even a day as well.

A implosion would be way better than days cramped together suffocating and starving in a inescapable freezing stench filled coffin.

100%

100% agree here. But then again, you wouldn't catch me in a tiny enclosed space God knows how deep, no thanks. I'll look at titanic videos on youtube.

you choose of your own free will to contract with this company knowing the risks.

But that's just the problem with free market/small government, isn't it? You can't know the risks because there is no oversight to prove people aren't cutting corners and selling bullshit.

As long as it is more profitable for people to deceive and cut corners, they're gonna do it.

I should be free to experience as much atmospheric pressure as I want!!

Hopefully the company goes out of business and there is someone held accountable but I won't hold my breath. Its sad for the families all the same.

I was messing around with this like sub warfare simulator game a while back and I blew up a whale with a torpedo because it showed up on my sonobuoy network as an unidentified contact 😅

Complaining about non-existing things is a new phenomenon on the internet I guess. I haven't seen a single person cheering about the billionaires' death but I've seen dozens of people complaining about people cheering about their deaths.

It's like those upvoted comments in reddit threads where people say "number of comments in this thread about XX is disgusting" and you look for those comments and cannot find any.

You don't have to actively root for their deaths, but I'm certainly not shedding any tears for them experiencing the consequences of their own actions.

That's... What he said? Lol

"I've got no love for billionaires... but the glee people have for their deaths..."

Let's leave the "if you have any scrutiny whatsoever it must mean you're on the opposite side of everything I stand for" bullshit on reddit where it belongs and actually read what people are saying.

I believe it was the sub that leaked...

There is a certain amount of empathy I want to have about the situation. Because at the end of the day, someone lost a loved one.

But there is also a bit of poetic justice when someone visits the wreck of a ship that played a large role in making sure ships were safer in case of catastrophic failure.

Only to ignore those procedures and end up right next to it.

I think it’s sad, but not as sad as when people die who weren’t daring the universe to do it.

Are you really looking to argue with someone about how they should feel?

Yeah, this comparison is getting really strained. As the Joker once said:

Nobody panics when things go “according to plan.” Even if the plan is horrifying! If, tomorrow, I tell the press that, like, a gang banger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics, because it’s all “part of the plan.” But when I say that one little old mayor will die, well then everyone loses their minds!

A sunken ship filled with hundreds of migrants in the Mediterranean is, horrifyingly, a routine thing. It's "part of the plan." But a billionaire in a minisub possibly stranded on the Titanic? That's newsworthy. Yes, it sucks, but it's human nature and some battles are just impossible to win under the current circumstances.

Perhaps not a conspiracy, but doesn't it say something about our culture that we find it more interesting?
