All I can think about is the resources and time wasted recovering the puddles of these rich bozos from a submersible they signed a waiver to board, a waiver which noted it was an untested, experimental vehicle

A vehicle which was piloted with a fucking logitech controller of a model I owned that was absolute dogshit, but I bought because I was cheap and poor

    The Logitech control pad, cheap and shitty as it was compared to something better or even purpose-built, was probably the least problematic issue with that sub.

    The son was basically still a kid, he’s the only one I really feel bad for.

    The old man apparently knew that the submersible was made of crap and extremely dangerous. The fact he didn’t think to maybe warn the others makes it hard to feel any kind of sympathy for him.

    It seems like they did to identify what they handed back and also had a couple buckets of them(plural)

    She said “there wasn’t much they could find” of her family’s remains, which were recovered from the seabed and separated and DNA-tested by the US Coast Guard.

    They have a big pile they can’t separate, all mixed DNA, and they asked if I wanted some of that, too.

    What are they even gonna do with the forbidden slurpee? Just leave them be at the bottom of the sea.

    I think the men goo should be returned to the sea.

    “My first thought was, thank God,” Dawood told the newspaper. “When they said catastrophic, I knew Shahzada and Suleman didn’t even know about it. One moment they were there and the next they weren’t. Knowing they didn’t suffer has been so important. They’re gone, but the way they went does somehow make it easier.”

    Uhh... No. There's been reports that they have audio recording of them realizing what was happening and were in a blind panic. They scrubbed said report from the main media outlets though.

    Tigger: There's no difference between falling a thousand feet to the jagged rocks below and tumbling out of bed.

    Piglet: Oh. Really?

    Tigger: Sure. Except for the splat at the end they're practically similar.

    i don't believe this. i'm not an expert but the explanation i heard of the physics involved was that between the pressure the vessel was under and the failure mode of the carbon fiber hull, any noticeable crack would lead to the immediate smoothiefication of any part of the occupants that wasn't incinerated first. ig anything's possible but unless that recording comes up i'm inclined to believe they had no more information about the safety of that bullshit than when they got on.

    Fair, and that thought did occur to me in the back of my min. It's probably the correct analysis that it's wish casting.

    i mean, don't get me wrong. listening to stockton rush talk for 10 minutes in that coke can would have me breathing heavy too. there's certainly the possibility he accidentally let slip how the vessel had been progressively cracking apart. it's just it's a weird thing to cover up.

    Ms Dawood was meant to be on the trip herself, but gave her ticket to her son.

    They probably used a submersible with a standard suction specimen capture rig to slurp up some implosion soup that pooled on the seabed, and gave her two portions of the soup.

    How to make a billionaire smoothie. Step #1, build a backyard submersible. Step #2, add billionaires. Step #3, submerge submersible.
