I'm not arguing it doesn't slow it down, but this event (again) shows part of the justification for it. The Deepsea Challenger that took Cameron down ~11000m was certified and built with support from the certification body.
Titanic tourist submersible missing | Sub's debris found - crew "have been lost"
- Thread starter Solius
- Start date
Near, far, wherever they are, I believe that it's too late if they aren't located on the surface and found ASAP.
Their hearts won't go on for long.
I have one other account I follow which also follows this
I am truely disappointed in "Out of Context Dogs" who are now unfollowed
I doubt they'll ever find it
I thought they had until midday?
If you read about the trieste, which went to the bottom of the Mariana trench, it says it managed to establish communication with its ship on the surface by sonar/hydrophone ? Haven't looked into it properly but that's further down that this no?
Also this was in the 60s.

A thought.....How much noise does Carbon Fibre even make? If they are banging inside of that sub then I presume its not like banging on alloyed steel like a normal sub. Is this banging even a thing?
The Titanic really doesn't like rich people.
That's the estimate on oxygen. I'd imagine there will be continued attempts to fins it after that window has passed "just in case" but it won't be long before efforts to locate it are seriously cut back (unless the families of the people in it want to throw some money at continuing the search).
The central "tube" bit of the vessel is carbon fibre but the curved ends are supposedly Titanium and I suspect the main hatch will be titanum too. The teardrop shape at the rear is just a cowling - it's essentially a old school boiler tank shape that is the crew section.
That step son reminds me of Jimmy De Santa from GTA V, only much, much worse.
Unofficially out of oxygen right now, perhaps the experienced persons would have indicated how they could preserve as much as possible but even then, they aren't even located yet so definitely over with by now.
Must be an awful, awful death, just sitting there in complete darkness, cold, just waiting until you inevitably get dizzy, fall asleep, and never wake up again. Horrific stuff.

In a 2 litre milk carton
Best case at this point is it losing contact because of some sort of structural failure killing them all instantly.
Hamish Harding has apparently done the following previously, so no stranger to extreme adventure:
Been to Challenger Deep (Mariana trench), about 3 times the depth of the Titanic
Flown pole to pole circumnavigation
Flown to space on Blue Origin

It’s horrific. I wonder if it crosses their minds that each person around them is depleting the remaining oxygen. Imagine having thoughts of eliminating some of them to give yourself longer to survive.
Lotta morbid predictions here. 'The pressure's too high, there's no oxygen blah blah' and you'd know that how exactly? Get down there often do ya?
It's probably fine.
It's probably fine.
you just need to add the same amount of pepper to balance the seasoning.
They're sending and deploying another advanced ROV, but it wont be at the site until 50-60 hours from now... Surely no longer a rescue mission by then?
I like your attitude. You're a straight-shooter with upper management written all over you!
Surely they perished from hypothermia days ago? It’s about 4° down there.
Just think, they could’ve gone to Tennessee to see the Titanic for like $40.

still a better option than going to the south
when they do it, it’s all “oh imagine those poor people, trapped, pooing in a milk carton.” but when i do it because i’m too lazy to get out of bed, i’m some kind of weirdo.
Almost certainly not. By retrieving the sub, it would at least bring some closure and allow groups to be able to do more thorough investigations into what happened. Who knows what they were/are doing but I'd imagine they may record some videos on their phones, whether good bye messages or some or possibly explaining the situation as to what happened.
Yes, because PS controllers are well known to have ABXY on the buttons.

It's just a generic PC controller. Unsurprisingly people have been hitting the page with 'hilarious' submersible related reviews.
The video I saw was even worse - just a tiny little compartment where a bottle is stored to piss in. Sub doesn't look big enough to have a shitbucket
After day three they begin to question why the entire place doesn't stink of piss and shit. The CEO just says "I'm opening the back door and putting it in the backup escape submersible, which takes the stuff to the top and then comes back down again for the next load. Why the feck are you all looking at me like that?!"
I was hopeful 2 days ago but I don't think it's realistically a rescue mission anymore at this point either. It would take a miracle for them to still be alive on top of the miracle of finding them in the next hours.
If it were still sealed to the standard needed for that depth and something else failed, would their bodies even decompose without anything having gone in there? Would they turn into mummies despite no humidity leaving it?
Talking to an anaesthetist at work who deals everyday with patients breathing whilst under GA’s, pressures and gasses and he said this. IF they’re still alive and running out of air they’ll hyperventilate which will consume oxygen faster and increase Co2 levels. This will effectively ease them into hypobaric sleep state which will slow their breathing down. Then the opposite will happen as less oxygen is consumed, what’s left will increase so they will probably awaken again then the whole scenario repeats itself until there’s no Oxygen left. Good god.
Looks like you've been missing a lot of work lately.
fecking hell.
Their hearts will no longer go on...
Hopefully those investigations conclude that allowing idiots to charge other richer idiots a fortune to get in a metal tube and be lowered to the ocean floor was a spectacularly stupid idea.
I have to say this is the most morbidly funny thread I've ever read about a group of people dying in a submarine.
Yet
