   It happed so fast, Stockton Rush didn't have time to be an idiot. He just ceased to be. Sadly he took 4 people with him.

   The dude loves the ocean. He uses his status as a director to film out at sea, or anywhere that can hold a LOT of water.

   The lesson learned is a simple one. All subs should be certified, nevermmind what it would cost. Wwe have 5 people DEAD because of Rush's hubris.

   I have watched few interviews of James regarding the tragedy and he seems really disappointed with Rush.

   Dr Ballard is a fascinating person. He goes looking for 2 sub wrecks.. finds them then has 2 weeks free time and money from funding and goes looking for a famous shipwreck. Finds it… 😂

    I really like how Bob made the distinction between innovation and tourism. I think he is very wise in doing that.. we need people who are willing to put it all on the line, everything worth having has come at a cost but it does not mean you sell tickets to take folks with you and this case they sidestepped that in a very shifty way so it compounded the tragedy

    This was a senseless IGNORANT waste of money & lives, just like Titanic itself & we added 5 more lives to her in vain. They had no business being there, it adds nothing to science. Just rich people splurging money.

    They knew these risks going in, I hope what they payed also covers a large part of the search. It probably won’t, what’s sad is how many die at sea daily with no one looking for them because they aren’t billionaires. 🤦🏻‍♀️ How about they donate part of those fortunes to actually make a difference?

    They were effing around with the relatives for 4 days, giving them false hope, instead of telling them what they had actual proof of… I bet the media loved the extra clicks… Disgusting corporations, have some respect towards people!

    How long do you think the Titanic sink from Surface to 13,000 below water. Timing wise?

    Titanic was destined to sink and it did and yet we continue to test nature, God, fate, and safety these being the very reasons why the Titanic sank in the first place. In my opinion it should be left alone because further from being a historical site it’s also a massive gravesite and God knows how many souls were lost that day and the amount of souls it still continues to take. Curiosity really does kill the cat.

    I work in a fucking Deli and know that you do NOT use composite materials on a hull for deep diving. Everything reacts differently. Which is a no go at that depth. An All carbon fiber hull would have be fine if it was tested and approved. Stupid mofo tried to do everything on the cheap.

    Just like you can have all the money in the world but you can’t make it rain in the most drought ridden places on earth.
    Just imagine they could have died on the surface sealed in without air by bolts or died in an implosion. Either way, they had no plan B. “Only the rich make the world delusional to suit themselves”

    I dont want to be disrespectful to victims and their families, and I'm sorry for saying this…
    But this smells to me like a perfect opportunity for Cameron, or other film makers, to make a movie based on this. Film directors just wait for tragedies like this (again, not in a bad way, like they wish for that)

    Deep diving in the ocean with the sole intent of only viewing things through a porthole is a foolhardy endeavor for ANYONE, even Cameron. ROVs are capable of
    performing almost any function desired including filming, observation and some retrieval. Yea you survived, lucky SOB!

    The main Titanic lesson is DONT UNDER-ENGINEER. Titanic sank cos they discounted the possibility of a major hull breach. So they didnt bother with sealed bulkheads. Under-engineering. The water could not be contained. Ii could not NOT sink.
