A #Mythbusters clip is going viral for showing what #implosion does to a human body.

The depth of this experiment was only 300 ft., and the depth of the #Titanic is 12,500 ft., so the Titan sub crew likely experienced a much quicker implosion than what’s shown in this video.

That's at a simulated depth 300 feet, at 12, 500 feet it would've just turned into goo almost instantly.

Imploded fast enough for rebound explosions. Probably sonoluminescence. Extremely violent and faster than nerve signals travel.

Except the pressure the 5 in the Titan sub experienced was 400x stronger.

The death of the Titan passengers happened in less the a fraction of a didnt feel anything....best way to go ..

[cjpatz]

For those 5 on the Ocean Gate, I’m hoping it was quicker than that and not slow and agonizing. From what I’ve heard it was extremely quick. So quick they probably vaporized and we’re gone before they knew it. RIP

Yup, I guess the creators of that sub never learns from the Mythbusters....

[prawnkng]

It’s kinda weird that they are cheering

[SWSimpson]

It probably happened very quickly if the sub imploded not far from the Titanic. It's sad and sickening.

[blueflash]

I think this could be a new method of death penalty/punishment for the crimes since they could die instantly without feeling any pain

[E-WayPoota]

But there were 2 ‘bangs’. They’re saying first was hull cracking then about 2 seconds after the tube they were in imploded.

Even though death would have been instantaneous, those 2 seconds between hearing that first super loud cracking of the hull noise to full out implosion must have been absolutely terrifying

[boroprikaza]

are you telling me that 30 million psi can be dangerous?

[blob]

They actually never realized it happened, because it all happened in less than 1 ms, which is faster than the brain can process anything.

[nicoleserenalauer]

Crazy how this people scream and laugh watching the experiment.... sick!

[AlphaBravo]

Why would a submarine implode? Has a water outside of the craft too much pressure?

[Oldguy]

The one nice thing about eating at Subways you don't have to worry about their subs imploding.

[animula]

No one knows. The more that comes out to contradict know it alls the more clear it is that no one knows.

[aunt_crazylegs]

Even though they died instantly they still realized they were in trouble, but hopefully only for a few seconds. Still, it's absolutely terrifying.

[borntoclimb]

I remember watching this show in the 2000s, mythbusters are great.

[Tad]

Dang… Sounds just like the knocking sound they picked up

[zeejay-junejo]

its funny how the world gets to know about water pressure and crush depth just right now as if its a new discovery or something while it was a pretty old concept and lots of subs have been crushed underwater.
