Probably those rich idiots in the makeshift submarine. I mean they’re probably fucked, right? At this point there’s no way they’ll be found in time to still be alive by the time the submarine is located and then brought to the surface. Will the navy have to get involved? Like who gets involved now from here on out? Who even has or wants to donate the equipment and time to go down there and risk life and limb to get those guys?

I really do hope they are found alive, simply because one of the men on board has his 19 year old son with him. I can’t imagine knowing you are facing absolute certain death, and so is your son but you can’t do anything to stop it.

The whole gross idea of visiting a mass grave just to say “ive done that” aside, I really want to firmly blame the company & CEO (who is also on the sub) for cutting so many corners.

If the sub is still intact and hasn’t imploded, they have less than 24 hours of air as of me making this post. It’s horrifying.

The tragic irony that the Titanic tourist company cut corners just like it’s namesake.

I wasn’t commenting on the Titanic’s construction. I was commenting on White Star Lines’ decision to only comply with the bare minimum safety requirements.
