Titanic Tourist Submarine Goes Missing.

[Humble Narcissist]

Horrible way to go.

[TheShape.]

It also takes hours to safely bring it back to the surface even if they did manage to find it. The water pressure is immense at that depth.

[hench]

I'm pretty sure no one is actually allowed to enter or touch the wreckage.
Unless the sub sprung a leak I'm presuming they'll suffocate, imagine the panic then slowly going out like when Cohaagen turned off the oxygen in total recall.

i bet they tried to navigate the submarine inside the wreckage and it collapsed on them......

[wes]

Ironic or what?

[Kwon]

Soon they'll add tourist tours where you travel via Submarine to check the wreckage of the old Titanic Tourist Submarine...

Hope they got snatched by aliens and are safe somewhere, but not very likely.

I reckon they're absolutely fucked. Obviously, rescuers would need to find a precise location in order to try to physically recover it. It's not transmitting that data any more. Plus, with the vessel being at something like 12,000 feet, how the hell would they get that back up to the surface?

I doubt any ROV used in Oil and Gas can go that deep, and it probably wouldn't have the capabilities to recover a submersible. Saturation divers can't go anywhere near that depth, so any rescue must be hinged upon having a capable rescue submarine getting down there within the ridiculously small timeframe they have left. Hopefully the thing just got crushed under pressure and they died a quick death. Would be shit to be just sat there in your tomb, waiting to run out of air, lol.

I'd love to see what this company's risk assessment and CASEVAC plan looked like. You'd assume they had more in place than 'let's just take down extra air and supplies'.

Edit: This is interesting. I was curious to see what we have in place for situations where our military subs run into issues. Our NATO equipment can't get near those depths. The Submarine Rescue Vehicle can reach max depths of around 2000 feet. Unless they're just bobbing around somewhere, which is extremely unlikely, they are dead.

I’m going to start a submarine tour company that only surveys the Titanic submarine wreckage

I'm willing to be a passenger but only if you promise to donate my organs in the event of another tragedy. I need to make sure that my heart will go on.

[Gym Rat]

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Evidently the owner/inventor is on board this thing as the pilot and then some French explorer as the “guide”. Only three paying passengers. Reports from previous customers says the thing surprised them with how shoddy it seemed. I’d imagine they sprung a leak and the thing just broke up and they’re dead. No way you’re finding that thing in 96 hours with no radar, gps or any other communication.

Imagine being that captivated by some goofy ass ship

They are looking for the diamond!

They fucked around and found out that their money doesn`t mean all that much.

$250,000 to die in this:

You people do this stupid shit....base jumping, selfies on climbs, motorcycle stunts....   You won't find any soul brotha's on any of these rickety subs.   We've only been on military submarines...and the black folks that have commanded them went nowhere near any fucking icebergs or whales


Should have got these guys to handle that sub if they were going to use it.  They would have shook down that thing first

Its like Leon on Curb your enthusiasm when he comments about white people storm chasing
Larry says "do black people not chase storms?"
Leon.     "No, its fucking stupid."

When is the first fatality in the Space Tourism industry ?
Anyone want to chase a tornado on a tour?

SpaceShip 2 but it was a test accident...not only that the surviver was the first person to survive a space accident to begin with.....not Columbia or Challenger.   Its a clear example of privatized and government built

[ziballz]

This is the controller they used to maneuver the jerry-rigged sub 12500ft down to the titanic

I am with the brothers on this .Risking your life for this?

[Kwon]

Upgrade from their earlier controller

[Fortress]

I take no pleasure saying it, but, these folks are goners.

They spun the dice and lost.

It’s the way she goes.

[Spike]

that one reporter was talking about being inside the thing and it being all janky


said it was steered with an xbox controller ? 


imagine sitting on the bottom of the ocean , smelling peoples dying farts because the controller ran out of juice

[GymnJuice]

Hey, I was born in St. John's!

In the town where I was born, lived a man who sailed to sea...

[38 returns]

Hey, I was born in St. John's!

I'm sure that will be immense comfort to the families as they grieve.

Probably hold off on sending them wanking videos. Bit early.
