Dude built his own coffin. Didn't give a crap about doing the right thing . Killed four people.

The Coast Guard and Navy knew what happened on day 1, but rightly didn't come out with any official statement or confirmation until they got visual confirmation of a debris field, physical evidence to confirm it. The Navy detected the sub imploding in the water via sonar/acoustics from what I understand. Combine that with the fact that the sub lost communications AND tracking at the same exact moment, two systems that are completely independent/isolated from one another. In a different situation, losing communication would never mean a loss of tracking, unless the vehicle suffered catastrophic damage. So all the cards were lining up early on, but for the sake of the families, no reason to say anything concretely before finding any of the wreckage.

The whole media drama show with the OXYGEN REMAINING countdown tickers on the screen and them creating a soap opera out of it, that was absolutely ludicrous and shameful in my opinion. It may make for intriguing television and get people paying attention, but the families properly suffered more as a result. I mean some of the coverage was just ridiculous.

R.I.P to all 5 man who lost their lives.

Just think how selfish they were to look at the titanic which has already been looked multiple times. Then the amount of money spent and resources wasted just to search for them. I know it’s sad but it was selfish of them to go down there.

My mom and dad went to a titanic museum I think in Vegas. It had a life size icebergs and items including a wall of the ship. they got to see more there than what the people on that submersible could’ve gotten to see.

Rest in peace, but there was a much better way to spend their money.

My cousin who was in the military and who is also a person that talks non stop had not heard this story because he hasn't watched TV in days, I told him what happen and he broke it completely down to me how an implosion occurs, he said it's like balling up a napkin in your hand, pressure coming in so tight the men had to have died instantaneously, they wouldn't of felt a thing he said because they wouldn't of seen it coming .My cousin also said he didn't want to talk anymore about it because of how horrible it is to die that way. Someone who talks a lot finally wanted had no more words.The military made him very knowledgeable about Implosions.Its to much for me now that I've learned much.

Greed & arrogance of Stockton Rush cost him & 4 others to loose their lives

[scottiedeanmcclaskeyjr]

If Stockton Rush the founder and CEO of OceanGate would've listened to the co-workers that told him that his submersible had a few flaws this probably would've never happened! But he didn't listen and he not only jeopardized and risked his life but he jeopardized and risked 4 other people's lives! And look what happened look at the result of this terrible unfortunate tragedy!

[BRICEP]

Them sharks down at the titanic really said “damn who ordered five guys”

[LastActionHero]

It's mind-boggling that oceangate has probably the money and resources, but build a sub out of hardware store parts.

[shawnjoseph]

They left at 8 am and were dead by 10:30 everyone has an opinion but this is proooobably what happened. As they decended.. they heard the creaking but kept they heard the warnings and imploded a second later

[stay.in.school.]

the violence of implosions is utterly stunning, total pressure cook off. rip too bad only we can learn from this, moms gave up her seat to the son too she was on the boat....

[carpediem]

unfortunately it is that we always go into the analysis afterwards what went wrong and then we find out that the material of the hole was not strong enough and certainly not for a number of times because material fatigue sets in, it is sad that this omission costs the lives of 5 people, the captain himself was not open to criticism, it is sad that they are now next to each other for the same reason and that is because of the stubbornness of the captains

This is off topic, but her voice can be a kind of unintentional ASMR. It is so nice and mesmerizing. I feel relaxed listening to her.

[keiraann]

It’s pathetic how this is what grabs everyone’s attention. If only humanity could actually focus on stuff that would change our world and how we treat one another.

I WAS TRYING TO WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO BUT THE KALIMBA MUSIC KEPT ANNOYING ME

SO DID HER TONE OF VOICE

Carbon overwrapped pressure vessels are good for keeping high pressure compressible fluids in (rocket fuel), not high pressure incompressible fluids out (water).

Ceo had a lot of pressure on him to succeed but it ended in a crushing defeat!

Meanwhile
InSyria, the DPRK, Yemen, Ukraini

It's going to sound horrible, but at least this tragedy has been an educational experience for so many people online. I've never seen so many new "experts" on the science of how pressure works at extreme depths in my entire life!
