The correct way would've been to cut to a black screen. Even that would've been slow.

[rapaladude]

They wouldn't have even been able to register what happened. They died faster than their brain could process it.

[bobbart]

Too slow. It was 1 millisecond. Our eyes can’t even process that quickly. It would’ve just been fine one second and then instant blackness

[sewmanjose]

Computer too slow for a real implosion 😂

[Saltwaterfrog]

So that’s wrong,


First of all, it was pitch black
They had to save their power until they reached the wreck, and the ocean has no lights (apart from bioluminescence, but there was none of that where they were) so they were in pitch black, they never reached the wreckage.

The Sub had actually had a minor creak under the pressure before the initial implosion, so they knew what was going to happen to them before the actual implosion,

Implosions take a millisecond, out brain takes 100 milliseconds to process pain, and our eyes 13 milliseconds to process visual info.
So instant.


Edit: I love how people are hating on me when I’m literally just trying to give information, I didn’t infact get my information from YT shorts, I got it from actual news sources, I know, shocking.

Also love how people assumed I was a man. This feels oddly necessary to point out bc I’m over here laughing my fuçking asš off

[Steve]

Instead of showing the glass breaking, just cut to black.

[aaronwalderslade]

Suddenly everyone's an expert on this shit.

[Coryiodine]

You couldn't get me on a bike with training wheels if its called the titanic.

[TheLovelorn]

Just go from regular footage to black screen the next frame over. That’s how fast it was. Like faster than lightning reaction needed

[MartinDreu]

There is absolutely no way I would willingly get into that submarine... I can only imagine the panic of those people😢

[TheBozn]

Actually, it took just about 5 milliseconds for the entire inside volume to be compromised. The sea level pressure atmosphere inside where the crew sat experienced a sudden 40 Mpa overpressure which is about the equivalent pressure you measure at 1 meter distance from a 1000 kg (1 ton) TNT explosion(~38MPa). So not only would any soft tissue dematerialize immediately, but the passengers would have gone from normal consciousness to black instantaneously.

I am not in material science or any expert in submersibles but I am an engineer and has read some papers, reports and simulations on this tragic but avoidable incident. Here below are some facts I can share with the ones interested,

There is absolutely zero chance for a human to registering any sensation like visuals(>30ms), pain(>100ms) or fear since that would take much longer for the human brain to register.. This would be the quickest death you can get.

Based on composite material researchers simulations the CFRP cylinder is most certantly what gave; an implosion due to cyclic fatigue. Not the acrylic glas. Simulations show that the acryllic window wouldve been ejected outwards, away from the submersible after the implosion, followed by the two hemispheres being pulled towards eachother right after the collapse. Multi-variable analysis that take into account the construction process, design techniques and inherent material properties has shown that the safety margin probably was about 1.4-1.5, contrary to the designed 2.25.

Regardless of that, to certify a craft like this for manned use there are three tests you have to go through. First you have to test five crafts to failure, meaning you have to implode 5 subs, and compare the results with your calculations, and show that they are consistent and accurate.
Secondly, you have to put your craft through 1000 hours at 6 times(safety margin of 6) your rated pressure, not just a test dive with your 2.25 margin rated vessel like OceanGate did. Thirdly you have to cyc

This takes about 2 years and is expensive, hence it was ignored by OceanGate.

As stated by Oceangates Stockton Rush as an atgument for the safety, "there hasnt been a sub fatality in 35 years", is probably because most manned craft are tested and certified to these standards. Most submersibles are also made for much more shallow depths, whilst the few really deep sea crafts are all built using proven materials and geometries, like spherical titanium hulls.

[TheGamingCanadian]

First of all: Not a submarine, it’s a submersible
Second of all: It would’ve been instant

[evergreengaming.]

Dude, it took less than a single millisecond for the submersible to implode. Idk where you got the info that it was that slow.

[sandstrommadam]

looked like according to whom? This is about a million times slower than it really was

[BMarie]

No it’s not. Their eyes wouldn’t have even had time to register any part of it. And this is..nowhere near what an actual implosion would look like from inside.

[lesco]

It's insane to think it was much faster than this. It probably brought peace to the victims families knowing there was zero suffering

[williamperez]

One moment they were here and the next they weren’t. Then all of a sudden Captain smith and William Murdoch are helping them out the sub.

[gamingbutter]

Wouldn't there be cracking? Just because they didn't feel it doesn't mean they didn't know it would implode. Stockton knew.❤

[FlorianGuitar]

Right, that’s how slowly it happened.

You just forgot the band inside the submersible playing „Nearer my God to Thee“ during the implosion.

[KingGrumpkin]

The events of the Titan happened in less then 1 millisecond, and it takes 13 milliseconds to process vision. So it would be way faster
