New evidence strongly suggests that OceanGate’s submersible, which imploded and killed all passengers on its way to the Titanic wreck, was unfit for the journey. The CEO, Stockton Rush, bought discounted carbon fiber past its shelf life from Boeing, which experts say is a terrible choice for a deep-sea vessel. This likely played a role in the submersible’s tragic demise.
I mean, it’s insanely easy to avoid being crushed at the bottom of the ocean in a homemade discount sub that everyone has tried to warn you is unsafe…just don’t try to go to the bottom of the ocean in a homemade discount sub that everyone has tried to warn you is unsafe…
Everyone warned the CEO, but it seems the CEO did everything he could to cover that up and mislead the passengers.
Also the 19 year old was apparently pressured into going despite his fears by his dad.
Tell me about it! I’ve been able to avoid it for 30 years, and I haven’t even really been trying that hard!
I mean things like the travelling funnfair are still a thing, people die on travelling carnival rides every year…similar thing, thrill seeking dangerous shit
