Because apparently folks are confused and not looking shit up, this is the missing “sub”. It’s literally a metal tube.
It fits 5 people.
There’s no crew y’all. This isn’t Disney’s Atlantis. There’s one guy who presses a button on a Logitech controller to go up and down. Everyone else is whoever can afford a ticket.
Hope this helps cause I’m seeing some wild ass claims in the comments.
elon should take his submarine and personally lead the expedition to find them in the icy depths, with any luck he'll get lost down there as well and we'll be free of the emerald boy
I highkey think this is HILARIOUS. Because it’s a bunch of rich hacks paying 250k a seat in that nightmare tube. And the Chief Executive Fuckwit of that nightmare himself is in the thing this time.
Mans thinks safety features is wasting money it’s why no one can find the thing there’s no “we’re lost and need help” bonus safety features on the tub.
And even funnier imo is I heard that like. They’re bolted in from the outside? Even if they manage to surface they can’t get themselves out without someone on the outside letting them out.
Safety features exist for a reason and y’all just potentially killed yourselves.
Even better… the company itself posted this article that attempted to explain why this was. Apparently, most maritime accidents are operator error and not due to the failure of the vessel itself…

As someone who’s training to be a deck officer, I think I can add some of my own knowledge here:
In the maritime world, there are organisations called classification societies that basically inspect vessels and make sure they’re up to international standards. This submersible was never inspected by any of these bodies, so it was never deemed to be up to standard by anyone.
Even better… the company itself posted this article that attempted to explain why this was. Apparently, most maritime accidents are operator error and not due to the failure of the vessel itself…
Which is usually true, because vessels are safe because they are inspected and up to standard. Titan was not. And evidently, their steps to keep the submersible safe didn’t work either. So why was the vessel unclassified?
Because the CEO complained that the regulations for passenger vessels were ‘obscenely safe’ and prevented ‘innovation.’
If innovation is making a shitty pressurised tube and sending it to the bottom of the ocean that’s new to me. So basically this idiot ignored every chance he could have to make this disaster sub safe, and is now paying the price because he’s presumably a fine pulp on the ocean floor right now.
No one explained the concept of survivors' bias to these people
Also: one of their innovations? The thing was made of carbon fiber. Do you know what material absolutely does Not fail gracefully? Carbon fiber.
