250k to go see the Titanic wreckage? Now submarine is lost, 5 people on board.

[Archie]

vax claims another 5

They signed a waiver and knew about the risks. Isnt the submarine makeshift ? I read its driven by an Xbox controller and has old pipes.

Part of me doesn't feel sorry for them. You buy the ticket and take the ride.

Another part of me gets claustrophobic just thinking about it

 

[Wagerallsports]

What's the update?

 

[Wagerallsports]

The exploration is around 8-10 hrs correct?

If still no contact unfortunately they are at the bottom of the ocean

My God to be stuck in that little thing together running out of air

 

[easy_street]

I read they have until June 22 of oxygen

 

[Wagerallsports]

The sub had up to 96 hours of oxygen supply, the U.S. Coast Guard said

With every step that has to be made to rescue them said by this expert in this vid, sadly it just isn't going to happen

Imagine it's nearly 12,500 feet below down. To make a trip down to that part of the ocean is a really huge risk. tsk tsk.

 

[Wagerallsports]

The passengers are actually bolted in from the outside

So they have to find the vessel first, then find a way to get it to the surface, then get the thing unbolted to get them out

Buried alive at the bottom of the ocean how terrifying

yah but how cold is it down there might freeze to death

True

I wonder what really went wrong on that submarine. This is like the version of MH370 that went missing, but only in the air.

If you watch that video I posted above it talks about some of the things they used to control it are cheap stuff you can buy over the counter in stores

Of course you would think they would have backups to those items and I'm not saying that's what went wrong but it's a possibility

tsk tsk. The odds are low and looks like they really need a miracle rn.

 

[Wagerallsports]

They need to preserve all the oxygen they can but we all know being in their shoes there's no way to remain calm

 

[JDS]

Imagine paying for your death, unreal.

 

[Wagerallsports]

I would have already snapped in there & the others would have to go ahead and end it for me for their own sakes

It sounds like a horror movie. What are they eating? Bathroom?

Titan sub: Cramped vessel is operated by video game controller

The world's only privately owned manned submersible has a unique design and some surprising features.

www.bbc.com

What's it like inside?​

The sub itself is extremely narrow, measuring just 670 cm x 280 cm x 250 cm (22ft x 9.2ft x 8.3ft), and can carry a crew of just five people - a pilot and four passengers.

While it is bigger than competitors, passengers are required to sit on the floor with limited room to move around.
At the front of the vessel is a large domed porthole offering a viewing point, which the company claims is the "largest viewport of any deep-sea manned submersible".
The walls of the sub are also heated as conditions can become extremely cold at such depths. Wall mounted lamps are the only source of light on board.
Unusually though, it includes a private toilet for customers at the front of the sub. A small curtain is pulled across when it is in use and the pilot turns up some onboard music.
However, the company's website does recommend "you restrict your diet before and during the dive to reduce the likelihood that you will need to use the facilities".

Definitely not something for claustrophobic ppl

But I betcha if these ppl are rescued, those on board will now be claustrophobic for life
