What the fuck is wrong with these people? 35 minutes ago, Brisketexan said: This. It's a fucking computer monitor, not a window. I can see all that shit from the surface. Hell, you could put me in the sub and lie about it - "yeah, we're totally descending, it'll take 8 hours. Blah blah blah, look at the monitor, you can't see anything till we get down to the wreck. And if you gotta take a dump, there's a bucket up front." And then just make the sub move around some, about 100 feet down. Profit. So they basically paid $250k to ride a shitty version of this for 16hrs+..... and then die. Incredible.

I was just searching to see if there's any sort of virtual submarine tour of the titanic wreckage. Just need an Xbox controller, a 1,000 lb propane tank, some way to pipe in hull-creaking noises, a small computer monitor, and a short video of the wreckage. There will be a sign informing riders that the shitter is out of order. Opportunity knocks! Edited June 20, 20232 yr by dcbc

June 20, 20232 yr I think they're faking it and will be miraculously "rescued" at the 11th hour. Appearance tour, book and movie deals await to make them even richer.
June 20, 20232 yr Or the men wanted to disappear and they’ve already been retrieved by another boat a few miles away. This would be a very effective way to fake your own death
June 20, 20232 yr This would be a very effective way to fake your own death So you’re thinking they had a plan before they took their dump?
June 20, 20232 yr This whole thing is just tempting Poseidon or Davy Jones. You’re gonna take a bunch of tourists to poke around what is essentially a grave for thousands of souls he already took? And get cute and name the submarine after the ship that sunk because he was angry at the hubris? Yeah……

June 20, 20232 yr When a plane crashes into a mountainside at 500 mph and they send medics out in helicopters, I wonder what those guys talk about on the way to the "rescue."

What is the point? To feel water pressure inside a tube? I don't get it. It looks like a billionaire and another prominent business person were on board. Any chance they were caught up with Epstein or something else and used this to disappear themselves and live out their days in Argentina?

We all flippantly throw small sums of money about. $250k was chump change to these cats. 2. The ultra wealthy tend to believe they are invulnerable, and behave accordingly. Seen the BS movie too many times.

If I'm spending any decent sum of money (decent in my view, or $250,000 if I was rich) to be stuck in a confined space with 4 or 5 other people for 16 hours or more, they better be cheerleaders.
June 20, 20232 yr What baffles me is why did they want to see the titanic again? We’ve seen pics and photos of it numerous times before? What was the point of going down there again? To see what exactly?

They are probably talking about how the plane was hauling ass and that because it was going so fast, it beat the medics to the scene of the crash by at least half an hour

June 20, 20232 yr Lol, this is NOT the size of a minivan. Glad you clarified they’re white. Was wondering.
June 20, 20232 yr A good friend was in Control when the USS San Francisco ran into the side of the underwater mountain. He said the scariest 3 minutes of his life was when the Chief of the Watch hit the chicken switches to do the EMBT blow and nothing happened. And then somehow it activated and shot then to the surface. These guys are at hour 60. Fuck shitting in that toilet. I would be shitting my pants
