For those who are unaware: A couple billionaires, a pilot, and one of the billionaires' son are currently stuck inside an extremely tiny sub a couple thousand meters under the sea (inside of the sub with the guys above).

They were supposed to dive down to the titanic, but lost connection about halfway down. They've been missing for the past 48 hours, and have 2 days until the oxygen in the sub runs out. Do you think they'll make it?

The only outcome we can be sure of at this point is that the company responsible for this mess is going to have to answer a lot of questions.

    The ceo is aboard the "sub," so it might be one of the few times a ceo actually gets punished for being an asshole.

    Why are we assuming the CEO is an asshole? The guy is probably about to die, let’s have some class.

    There a video linked of him (I think it's the CEO anyway) laughing as he reads a waiver saying the submersible has not been tested and could result in death and then says where do I sign.

    And some massive lawsuits to handle.

    I think there already is one. There was a guy working for that company who was fired for whistleblowing after the ceo ignored his safety concerns, and now that employee is going after the company for wrongful termination.

    That ceo knew it was dangerous but still decided to drag 4 other people to a watery grave
