  1. If it was a avg Joe in that thing, you think anyone would care? Just another billionaire with too much money and not enough brains.

  2. 1:33 "Extreme, extreme pressure. Almost 400 times what we feel here on Earth."

    ***NEWS FLASH*** We have all just learned from this reporter that the depths of the ocean is not part of Earth!

  3. People had too much optimism. Never stood a chance.

  4. Death by DIVERSITY?
    ๐Ÿ‘น๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿค›๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผ๐Ÿคœ๐Ÿณ๏ธโ€๐ŸŒˆ๐Ÿ‘น

    "I don't want to hire '50-year-old white guys' with naval experience because they're NOT 'inspirational"

    ~Oceangate CEO Stockton Rush
    ๐Ÿ˜‚

  5. Well, the owner of that company will now lose everything. All because he just wanted money. His greed caused 5 people to die. Now there are 5 more people added to the list of casualties of the Titanic.

  6. It was their choice with all their money to waste their lives to see a shipwreck. There is no one to blame but themselves.

  7. One of 4 things happened.
    1) the submarine exploded due to extreme pressure.

    2) the titanic is haunted and something paranormal happened to cause the sub to be destroyed.

    3) a massive sea creature living in the titanic destroyed the sub.

    4) aliens abducted the submarine, destroying it.

    ๐Ÿ˜ฏ

  8. Seem like they went out like real men. If they were banging on the hull. Maybe they found a way to scuttle it for a quick painless implosion before the air ran out. Much better than waiting weeks for a successful recovery to pull up the sub. And soon as the hatch is opened. A quicker than normal decomp begins.

  9. Maybe James Cameron found them?

  10. Welp, cross carbon fiber off the list.

  11. I say they'll be found alive. While everyone else seems to give up.

  12. Absolutely useless

  13. Honestly shocked Musk hasnโ€™t made this all about him after injecting himself into this situation and claiming he can totally save these people with his Tesla submarine, and then call one of the actual searchers pedos

  14. My condolences ๐ŸŽ‰ to the families ๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ•Š๐Ÿ•Š Their is nothing down there to see The Titanic is an underwater cementery this ship ๐Ÿšข is cursed, & still taking life's after 100 years there is no excuse to go down there only if you have a dead wish. Dear billionaire, if you have the $ enjoy life help, the poor don't seek dangerous trills, because is not worth the hype Their is a reason governments & scientists don't explore the deep ocean Is worthless… ๐Ÿ’ฏโœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿ˜…

  15. This is more like an adults toy that should only be used in a deep swimming pool

  16. More money than brains.
    Diversity hires
    All adds up to a bug hitting a windshield.
    Play stupid games win stupid prizes

  17. Imploding would've been the most humane thing. It's instant and painless

  18. There was an update on another channel that said the metal landing bracket with the bands over the pressure hull and rear cover was found. The carbon fiber pressure hull must have completely disintegrated

  19. They wasted 96 hours giving press conferences and interviews. The Navy deep salvage system and the French ship with the robot could have been onsite within 24 hours. Shameful

  20. Come on ! You had your 5 mn of fame. A little decency ! They are gone. STOP MILKING IT !!

  21. The sub was crushed like a paper cup! RIP

  22. Could have just went to Home depot and made a wench to attach to the little sub anything would be better then nothing what happen to Common sense ๐Ÿ˜”

  23. THEY HAVE BEEN DEAD SINCE DAY ONE OF THEIR DESCEND IN WATER

  24. hey it probably imploded they never felt a thing

  25. Great journalism Kristen!

  26. My guess is the Titan imploded when they lost contact and the 5 occupants died immediately !
    May their souls rest in peace…

  27. Looking at the titanโ€™s design. U can clearly see the panel gaps from the footage. If u cam see the gaps Iโ€™m sure the pressures would have caused damage to the outer haul maybe even inner layers.

  28. carbon fiber fail catastrophically often without advanced warning, one of the reason i stop riding my carbon bikes

  29. Who's paying for all that search

  30. Check the ship they were taken out on 3 1/2 hours to report to coast gaurd??? Did they have 02 on
    descent

  31. Well, they wanted to see a ship wreck. They got one.๐Ÿ˜ฎ

  32. I had no idea that below the ocean wasnโ€™t earth, imagine thatโ€ฆ

  33. What if they faked their death?
    And escaped to another part of world and changed identity ๐Ÿ˜‚

  34. It's time to admit they had an "Oh SH**" moment on Sunday. There won't be anything larger than a manhole cover. This is done.

  35. Itโ€™s posted that it could be depressurized from within, the CEO would know how , itโ€™s an all hope lost measure they may have taken. I hope this is not the case

  36. I'm just glad it wasn't the Yellow Submarine.๐Ÿค”

  37. I'm so happy I made productive decisions about my finances that has changed my life forever. I was once a nobody living in Birmingham UK, but today I can proudly say I owned two houses and I'm hoping to retire next year at 48 years if things keep going smoothly for me.

  38. Its like a giant meetel lobstar claws to France
