    First, this is a fantastic comment. Second, this brings up the fact that if they just applied the principles of safe travel in avie terrain they would have been fine. Stay roped up, have a working beacon, don't rely on SAR cause they probably won't get there fast enough, don't go into risky terrain without a plan and a backup plan, make sure part of the team is unexposed to the danger and can rapidly get to you if something goes wrong.

    Once again, a consultation with the TGR boards could have saved a lot of hassle. We're an underappreciated and underused resource.

    We would at least have painted the sub red, and put a GoPro on it.

    They need to use the ole desert island trick.

    The best thing to do to get found is start playing solitaire, because sooner or later someone will walk up behind you and tell you to put that two on the three.

    I believe the current iteration is that eventually they’ll be found by those people who have been trying to reach them about their car’s extended warranty.

    In the interview with David Pogue, Rush admits the operation runs at a loss. Big loss now.

    Pretty sure the captain did a hull whack and shouted “DROPPING!” as they left the platform.

    I think what’s been made clear from this is that billionaires would rather slowly asphyxiate in a tube full of their own shit than do literally anything to help another human being.

    Whenever I go hunting, I bring a surveyor's stake with me. If I end up getting turned around, I'll just pound the stake into the ground and wait. Within a half hour a pickup truck will back over it and then I can get a ride back to camp.

    I mean, if you stuffed your pockets full of breakfast meats, at least you could feast while you suffocate...

    I'd probably eat too many eggs at the breakfast buffet and have horrible gas from it. They would have definitely killed me first down there.

They are being thrashed about in north atlantic swells in a propane tank sized and shaped vessel with no sea keeping design or ability, smashing into each other, no seats, puking and shitting, slowly suffocating and dying of CO2 tox, hypothermia, and dehydration all at the same time.
    True hell. Being able to see the blue sky through the window while suffocating, puking, panicking, hopeful for a rescue.


    Instant death implosion would be best scenario at this point.

    Coast Guard just announced "debris field" located near the Titanic.

    Per Fox News.

    I wonder if this accident will create a recreational submarine safety code.
    With lots of rules like have a second rescue submarine on standby.
