I looked into it a bit and turns out you can get one of these certified luxury subs for $15m Rated to 13,000ft depth. Makes you wonder why these morons cheaped out for an infinitely worse experience
I feel the same. I have no feelings either way. It's like if someone loved to swim with sharks.. paid great money to swim with sharks and one day one killed him... $250K to go down to the Titanic.. and for what? Bragging rights? They knew the risks.. I'll save my empathy for the 37 people in Paris and 4 critically injured, not those on the submarine, though I do hope for a happy ending.
Few days before this happened there was a migrant boat with 500 passengers that disappeared at sea. 100 were kids. Did it even make mainstream news? 3 of passengers were billionaires. The other was the son of a billionaire.
That's the soon to be widow
“The stepson of the British Billionaire, Hamish Harding, who went missing, posted a tweet of himself at a Blink 182 concert and asked an OnlyFans star to sit on his face, while his stepfather is MISSING. This has led to him receiving heavy backlash, as many people believe he's showing a lack of remorse.”

ok how much money is she going to get?
Lol, is this real? It can't be. He's basically a more sociable version of Getbig's Spamith.
Was reading an article about a passenger last year. He said they made it clear it was very risky. Had to sign at least 3 waivers saying this could result in death. He said when he kissed his wife goodbye he knew it might be his last time seeing her. So I think they knew it was extremely risky but rationalized the risk which is human nature as "It won't happen to me". But it did.
I’m starting to think they faked this whole thing. Rich people wanting to get out of shitty marriages with no prenup. They’re all smoking Cubans and drinking scotch laughing their asses of living somewhere in Australia.
they are fucked,
The submersible is in fine shape and when it's found can be put back in service.After a thorough cleaning.
This guy Hamish had made a previous trip (in a really good submersible) to the bottom of the 32,000 foot deep Mariana Trench, the deepest on Earth.Based on that he probably though this 12,000 foot dive was a piece of cake.
According to the news (2 hours ago), the oxygen will run out today
Am I the only one that doesn’t find these jokes and memes funny about those people dying in that submersible? I don’t get it. What a slow, horrible way to die
