If it imploded, know that there's about 6,000 psi of pressure down there.  Their bodies would've been vaporized before their synapses even knew what was up.  Realistically that's the best way to go, if you're going to die down there.

Sounds about right lol. I dont think the operator was at least, while using a video game controller to steer  :laugh:

The pilot of that sub was the owner of the business and the one who built that sub.

Apparently the glass in that small window wasnt designed for pressure in 4000 meters.



And the CEO was aware of that.





The submarine made a couple of successful trips to the Titanic and I´m thinking the sub got worn down during those trips.

I thought I saw a young female was the pilot. Maybe Im wrong lol.

Apparently carbon fiber will fatigue with repeated use.  So I'll bet either the carbon fiber failed, or the viewing window failed.  I guess the end result is the same either way.

Best case scenario - The hull ruptured on the initial dive killing everyone instantly.



Worst case scenario - They lost power, drifted to the bottom and sat there until it finally imploded days later.



Guess we'll never know.

The US Navy's acoustical detection system recorded what they believe to be it imploding right around the time communications were lost.

They should have just said so at the start instead of dragging everyone along with a false hope. Stuff like this is why I don't trust the media.

Irony: wealthy people going on a sub that ignored safety standards to see a ship with lots of wealthy people aboard that ignored safety standards and sank.

Oerdin

Wow.  So the U.S. Navy knew that the mini sub imploded and sank last Sunday based upon its under water listening network but the Biden admin refused to release that I fo and kept the story in the headlines intentionally.  Why, you might ask?  Well Monday-Weds Congress was having public hearings about whistle blowers in the FBI about Biden political appointees knowingly and illegally hindering the investigations into Hunter Biden's crimes and Joe Biden's bribery case.  The Biden admin literally wanted to distract people from Biden corruption and weaponizing official government agencies and legal actions so they just made sure a competing story stayed on the news.

The Navy did tell search and rescue that once the sub was reported missing, and they had a chance to listen to their acoustic defense system recording from earlier in the day, but I guess although it was most likely the sub imploding, that can never be 100% confirmed until they actually find the sub, or what's left of it.  Search & Rescue guys would keep searching as long as the sub still had a supply of oxygen at the very least, then they no doubt would've scaled back.



Perhaps another reason is that acoustic defense system is supposed to be top secret.  I guess the Navy doesn't want others to know too much about its capabilities.

Herman

Here is what a wise man has to say about the sunk sub.
