The brain requires tens to hundreds of milliseconds to process sensory input. An implosion at that depth would have occurred in less than 1 millisecond, meaning the occupants likely never felt or realized any impact.
The passengers obviously were conned. Those stats of over 5K pounds per square inch are hard to envision in terms of the effect on the human body and the time frame, I guess instant. What a bloody tragedy for those innocents. Were they foolish?
After the Titan disaster, I saw an interview with the engineering firm that refused to approve the sub's designs. The engineer who reviewed the project was a middle aged woman who laid out all the reasons that the sub design was dangerous: Carbon fiber and the mix of materials. I could just imagine the CEO brushing her off as "uncool" and going ahead with the sub.
The submersible ‘Alvin’ which uses the original design of a ‘globe’ which handles the pressure properly, as well as tested metals, has been successfully diving since the 1960’s. For whatever reason, the designers of Titan decided to re-invent the wheel, and paid the price for their ‘hubris’. Sadly.
Susan: What a way to go! I am not a genius, but I know about the intense pressure in the depths of the ocean...and would never have considered going down in a submersible, period. I was taught to think ahead... and it has kept me alive 91 years. The people who went along with him had to be very naive and not very knowledgeable.
But some people won’t believe their lying eyes & need an expert to define a woman (99 44/100 kindergartners can & 1000% of 13 year old boys and a similar % of 12 old girls can). The Democrats put people like that on the SCOTUS, suggesting that we ought to bring back poll testing, not for voting, but for SCOTUS appointments.
The level of stupidity of the human race continues to astound me. Well, if someone wants to do something this stupid, that’s their privilege I guess. I’m more interested in how much staff time and resources (paid for by us, the taxpayers) were used up to take two years to write a report that makes me say, “well, duh”. 🙄
Why if he thought that way didn't go by himself.??? And the people who went with him were not very smart neither, and one was not only suicidal but took his son with him, a son who did't want to go in the first place but convinced him out of guilt. What kind of person do that?? They were all maniacs, people had lost common sense. People think that life is a movie or as in a movie, they cannot distinguish reality any longer. I, that I am a senior woman and an ignorant of all technology if somebody invite me to go to a trip and I have to get into a "thing" that has for control and drive a joystick with a console as in a video game I run as faster I can the opposite direction. Money, sometimes, make people dumb.
Airbus jetliners are controlled by game-style joysticks next to the pilots’ seats. Make you sure you fly on Boeing planes – no safety concerns with them
We hope they died instantly following the failure; there were no other possibilities after a failure in a single-volume bathyscaphe.
Certainly, if the ratio between the maximum design implosion pressure and the maximum operating pressure was high, for example, over 2 or 2.5, then there must have been signs such as strange noises even in the dives preceding the fatal one.

He suffered from a severe case of hubris.
Delusional, CEO Rush told customers It was Safe & Effective. Where have we heard that before. So sad that a Father & Son were victims of 5 dead.

Some people only learn when under pain. Some die learning important lessons!

No elections
Only selections
Crush the deep state NOW

Since it is a fiber, it is strong against tension but weak against compression.
Is it difficult to create a mechanism to convert compression force into tension?
Thank you for sharing this update. How terribly sad.

WE ARE UNDER ATTACK
STOP THE BULLSHIT
AND FIGHT BACK
Carbon fiber and plastics I believe both become brittle from heat and exposure and the molecules start realignment? Is that correct?
