Buying cheap no name brand cereal in a bag that tastes *almost* like the real thing to save a couple bucks? Sure, I get that.
Going to the bottom of the ocean in a bargain basement plastic replica of a real submersible the integrity of which your very life depends on? Who in their right mind thought that was a good idea?
yeah but it's not like he died on the first trip down there ... he was there multiple times, can't argue against that
if you ignore the engineering and state of the submersible that's quite an achievement xD
Killing a bunch of people isn’t an achievement, to put it bluntly he was silly for ignoring the design and whistleblowers who made it apparent something was wrong with the design, yes he did go down the titanic but at what cost, this could’ve happened on each of those dives that were successful.
There is...competition? Most of the pics look like research vessels and not tourist subs. And, for all intents and purposes, there is no real submarine tourism industry. Just a handful of bored stupidly rich people making money off of other equally bored stupidly rich people. The "industry" is not lucrative or tourist friendly.
When you think about it, Stockton Rush managed to convince Hamish Harding who previously had been on DSV Limiting Factor (to go to Challenger Deep) that his Titan submersible was safe and credible. I know it made trips to Titanic but every freakin’ trip was like Russian Roulette. You’d be very lucky if you make it back to the surface alive.
i dont think that this is a good post, because this has litterally nothing to do with how the titan sunk. Many more modern submarines use a controller, similar to what stockton used. The critical point where the titanium hulls because in them, unlike for steel, you could not see them being deformed under pressure so nobody noticed they where put under pressure too often. But this has nothing to do with the inside of the submarine.
This comparison is kinda stupid. The only other one that’s similar to the Titan is the Atlantis IV and its max depth is 150ft according to that pic. That’s no where near the capabilities of the Titan. Every other sub is rated for over 20,000 ft and isn’t a passenger sub in the sense. Mir- 3 people, DSV Shinkai- 3 people, DSV LF- 2 people, Deepsea Challenger- 1 person.
Hate on the Titan all you want but this is a bad comparison

Oof
3 day old account.. repost bot.
Downvote engaged.
granted, he *did* reach the Titanic multiple times ...
Until he didn’t
Gazpacho

also not life-friendly as it seems ...

But it wasn't the amount of people in it that made it implode.
Correct, take the Atlantis IV to the titanic and it too will implode
