For me it was when the restless souls of the dead emerged from the hull of the doomed ship to drag the submersible and its crew of sacrilegious rubber-necking grave robbers into the murky depths of the sea, never to be seen or heard from again.
What was your favorite scene from Titanic?
Imagine dying in a submarine. That’s a fricked go way to go. I’d rather be that zoomer who got ate by a shark in the Bahamas.
If it helps they most definitely lost power and suffocated together in the dark.
Titanic claiming some new victims.
They should keep them there out of respect for the ship too.
3 days of oxygen
Fun thing is there’s a toilet bucket on there. Imagine the smell right now
they were almost certainly crushed by extreme pressure
>Imagine dying in a submarine
At least it's quick.
The brother of my grandfather died in a submarine that sunk during WW2
Rest in peace, sorry to hear that, bro

My god thats terrifying
sounds like the plot to a horror movie
>Sub specifically takes people down to the wreck and back
>Somehow missing
Have they tried looking near, oh I don't know, the fricking Titanic?
assuming they even could locate it before they all suffocated to death, how are they supposed to get them out? They are stuck down there, there's not enough time to get the right equipment there (which i would assume be a giant winch or some kind of inflatable device)
ΔP
this is just a marketing stunt. you can clearly see how serious they are in this video
>marketing stunt
>they're all dead
missing. soon to be saved by heroic effort and uncompromising competence
The sub has a maximum of 96 hours of air on board (supposedly) which honestly seems highly optimistic to me, and assumes people aren't freaking out and breathing heavily.
Regardless, it's a moot point, as there are no rescue subs that can reach them within that 96 hour window, even more, there ARE NO RESCUE SUBS capable of doing frickall for them at that depth.
The only possible thing another sub could do is go down and snip some cable or entanglement that's trapped themed them, maybe. But even that's doubtful, but there's no sub capable docking with them, or towing them, etc. They are utterly fricked.

I guess a few more rich people might have just died with the ship
Seeing a few reports suggesting they might somehow be stuck on the ship. This would suggest that the Titanic is active and has started killing again. If they know where this thing is then why not bomb it until there's nothing left? Is 1500 not enough?
What are you saying they awaken an ancient evil by dive to deep? How fricked are we?

>all those people trapped inside air bubbles on the titanic at the bottom of the ocean
Yikes
Did this thing have an emergency beacon to broadcast its location in the event of mechanical failure?
no, but they had you sign a waiver before departing
?t=158
so... uh... do you start killing or what?
so they went down there without some kind of emergency buoy to call for help?
what are the odds they're fine on land somewhere
It's "balloon boy" all over again
i have a sixth sense about these things. those guys in that sub are long dead
That's not a sixth sense, you're just playing the odds.
i know it in my bones
>go to bother the souls of the dead
>die
pottery
Reminds me of that diver who went to try and retrieve the body of his buddy who died while cave diving, then got stuck due to the body and died in the same cave.
So why the frick can't they just return to the surface and shoot some flares?
The sub can't be opened from the inside for some reason.
fire them from the torpedo tube
well probably because doing so would kill them anyways.
they would be in a much better off place on the surface than under the surface. it's basically a 2 part search. 1 is over the surface in case they come up and the other is under the surface. they could be sealed with air but they can also be dead from some catastrophic failure. my money is the thing flipped over and it fricked up everything and they are stuck
It either popped or for stuck/lost power. You know how things float in water? It's the opposite when you get deep. The pressure actually keeps you down and you can go up without something powered. Watch the nightmare fuel I linked below. At the end he tries to inflate his buoyancy vest and you hear it fricking poo and blow bubbles.
%3D
>Watch the nightmare fuel I linked below
Nope
>poo and blow bubbles
Holy shit autocorrect you gross prostitute.
Diving is different since the human body is soft, so as you go deeper your lung volume decreases reducing buoyancy.
But in submersible it's hard shell so no change until it catastrophically implodes.
Either the pressure vessel failed and imploded and they died instantly or their control systems totally screwed up and they're stuck on the bottom waiting to die.
I'm guessing it imploded since it's carbon fiber and even in power failure they should have some back up way to trigger assent.
>he probably won't get arrested in Canada
he's on the sub lol
In the interview they did say that the controls and thrusters were "McGuyvered" but the hull itself was designed by NASA. So it's possible they got stuck and are slowly suffocating without being able to resurface due to being caught under a rock or something.
>POGUE: It seems like this submersible has some elements of MacGyvery jerryriggedness . You’re like, “we bought these handles off camperworld.com”. You’re like, “these thrusters are modified from some other purpose.”
>RUSH: (cont’d) So, the pressure vessel is not MacGyver at all, because that’s where we work with Boeing and NASA and the University of Washington. That part, once the pressure vessel is — you’re certain it’s not going to collapse on everybody, everything else can fail. It doesn’t matter. Your thrusters can go. Your lights can go. All these things can fail. You’re still going to be safe. And so, that allows you to do what you call MacGyver stuff. You just have to be very careful that the life support system, the sub itself, the oxygen system, the carbon dioxide scrubbing, all that stuff that needs to be buttoned down.
>here's your controller bro
Ah yes the "younger sibling special" controller.
>bounce diving
add that to the list of shit I'll never do
I don't understand what's happening in this video
He descended too quickly and became disoriented by the sudden change in pressure, which causes "the bends" where you basically become drunk and confused.
>Goes a bit too deep.
>Gets disoriented from
>Fricking free falls to an oceanic shelf couple hundred feet down in his delirium.
>Looks at depth gauge and sees this. Knows he's fricking dead.
That's from nitrogen narcosis, if you breathe deep enough underwater you start to feel sort of drunk. I've only experienced it at ~120 ft. At 300 ft it would really mess you up.
The bends is different, that's from when you come up too quickly and the nitrogen absorbed into your blood turns to gas.
they should link up with the survivors in the titanic air pocket
How come they dont have a ready to go rescue plan for this scenario?
They don't even have a fricking tracking beacon system.
you cant really send signals through 3 miles of water, the signal would attenuate. you'd need a cable
then attach the whole thing to a cable, I try to rely on my phone battery as little as possible, if I were plunging 3 miles into the briny deep I'd keep everything plugged in
>I try to rely on my phone battery as little as possible
Good way to kill the battery.
i was under the impression these things can operate with a cable (more like a tether) or without. they were just so deep that 3 miles of communication cable was cost prohibitive i'd imagine. what submarines normally do is run a cable out the back as it's antennae to get a low frequency range but they may have been too deep or it was also cost prohibitive. im guessing there is no cables whatsoever
Use smaller drone subs as a relay.
Nah it'd pass. 12,000 yards is doable. Nothing fancy, but mech tranx would work on a towed sonar array
inb4 cannibalism
>sub doesn't have a basic ass safety system like a beacon that automatically detaches from the hull in case of emergency and floats to the surface so rescuers can begin the search closer to the sub's actual location
Ideally you'd have some 2-3 that detach at certain intervals to account for currents dragging the sub along and whatnot, shouldn't even be hard to do.
it's literally controlled with a bootleg xbox controller
The true horror is knowing there are a bunch of skeletons rattling around in the ocean just waiting to plot their next move
No, the true horror is they're recruiting more
>they've been down there since Sunday morning
Rip
Pretend it's you in this five man coffin, you know the other paypigs on the trip are probably old rich fricks. Do you kill them by surprise, or do you try to argue that one person should be sacrificed for the betterment of the group?
This could be a really kino low budget short film tbh
What time exactly did the start the dive, and thus should we all be starting the 96 hour countdown?
They said 70-96 hours. I think by Thursday you can pour one out, and on Friday ask for the wills to be read.
I would hope we would all accept our fate and take it like men, but I'm above sea level so that's easy for me to say. It's definitely a good thought experiment.
Unda da sea!
Unda da sea!
Rescue's not coming
No redundancies running
Soon they can't breathe!
So the big dive hit a snag
Two days of shitting in to a bag!

The crew all wanted to see the ship
But jack's ghost has spoiled their little trip

How are these always so on point? Like someone got hold of an unfiltered version of ChatGPT.
Believe it or not, before ChatGPT most songs were written by actual people
I don't know how long you've been on this site but people here used to be amazingly creative. Every other day you'd have at least one thread that'd make you laugh, or some random new comic or edit. Something like editing a known song to match the thread was par for the course and board musicals were born for a reason.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!
i cant imagine a worst dead than dying cuz lack of oxigen
>i cant imagine a worst dead than dying cuz lack of oxigen
Burning to death maybe?
death by oxygen asphyxiation is fine, it's not painful, you just get sleepy. You fall asleep, and you die in your sleep, it's a great way to go tbh.
How about depressurisation?
Would it be almost instant? Going in and out of consciousness while your lungs burn and the body shuts down us much worse.
if i know im gonna die i would rape every female in that submarine, im going down, im going down cooming
But that ship can't sink.
>Shes made of carbon fiber, sir, I assure you she can
>Carbon Fiber
Can some science gay explain if this material is moronic for those crush depths
if the ship wasnt brand new there could be lots of fatigue. but it looks like it actually was rated for crush depths so i doubt it's a crush issue unless it is for some small component.
i bet someone FRICKED UP and they were dead due to some mundane detail that was overlooked and caused everyone to die. people been lazy and all about themselves lately
From an interview with Stockton Rush, the CEO of the submarine company and one of the people onboard:
>You know, there’s a limit. You know, at some point, safety just is pure waste. I mean, if you just want to be safe, don’t get out of bed. Don’t get in your car. Don’t do anything. At some point, you’re going to take some risk, and it really is a risk/reward question. I think I can do this just as safely by breaking the rules.
I would think travelling to the ocean floor is one of those times where you can't have enough safety.
He's referring to diminishing returns. He's not wrong.
t. Former sub guy and Westinghouse nuke engineer
This seems criminally reckless to me. But unless he said something bad about minorities/lgbt folks he probably won't get arrested in Canada
Barring this being a media stunt of some sort, that's some cosmic justice.
Reminds me of this. I read this quote before it was revealed she was a fraud, I knew it was moronic, but I told myself "she is far more successful than me, maybe she's not wrong, maybe I just don't understand something about this", but like clockwork, yes, she was indeed moronic and had committed fraud on a massive scale.
Wow, I hope she removed the airbags and seatbelts in her car just to prove that idiotic statement true.
always calculate a safety factor
*sigh* Somehow, the Titanic returned...
they only have a rudimentary system for sending messages, and that is very short low information messages like "100 yards west and 50 yards north" all that happened was they stopped getting this signal. could they be fine?
>all that happened was they stopped getting this signal
Not a great comparison basis but in most stories and every game where you go investigate after "we just stopped receiving the messages" everyone is fricking dead.
>everyone is fricking dead.
it's a race against time, i doubt they will find shit and this will be the next MH 370. maybe they wash up somewhere in a year or three
>wash up somewhere
you don't wash up from 12000 feet below the surface, but it could happen.
i didnt mean the whole wreck, probably just bits of wreckage like what we have with MH 370. there's lots of coast nearby and it's a busy area for shipping
Assuming they didn't implode, they can drop the ballasts and return to the surface. I've read that they use material that dissolves in 16 hours to hold the ballasts down. Best case scenario, they're already on the surface, awaiting rescue.
Interesting passive fail safe
There's also the third possibility, that they got stuck somehow.
>No one thought to equip the sub with a radio
They're fine and also just decided to spend two days underwater.
They slipped the captain an extra 20 bucks to get the special tour.
HOW THE FRICK DO YOU DIE ON THE TITANIC 111 YEARS AFTER IT SANK
TIME IS A FLAT CIRCLE
I am 90% sure they are already dead and died die to explosive decompression. cause if they are still alive right now they would be living through a nightmare trapped down there.
>Sub was named the Titan
Frankly, they were asking for it.
Dubs and they're just floating on the surface somewhere
You saved them. Good job
>thank you all for being with us here to see the titanic
>there was a moment-
WE JUST GOT AN IMAGE FROM INSIDE THE SUB
In an interview they explained the sub could ONLY go down and up. They were even bragging about it because it was so simple.
Is that accurate? Aren't there serious currents and shit that would affect them if they can only go up/down. Seems reckless beyond belief
they have some maneuvoring capability i'd imagine but nothing like how a navy sub can operate 100% underwater and go from port to port

At what point do you give up and start the sucking and fricking?
We really need to know the passanger manifest, where there any bangable chicks on board? Any girl turns into a 10/10 in your final hours, regardless of her consent.
It was all dudes, though there's apparently a lot of chicks who are obsessed with the Titanic because of the movie. I went on reddit to look up news about the sub and I stumbled upon a subreddit dedicated to the Titanic, and a lot of the women there were like "It's sad that they died but I really hope the sub didn't damage the hull ;__;"
it was 90s soft porn, it was too early for fanfiction.net shit, but had that cursed site existed then it would have been so many stories of girls making snail trails for Leo, and giving up there spot on the door to keep him cozy
Was this guy driving! Is this the "We gaaan" for subs??
Don't tell me that's what it's supposed to look inside ? I thought there would be more space, this just look like a fricking barrel why would you go that deep down in that thing.
Are they actually near the titanic or got lost on the way? Because regardless, on that depth there is hardly anything that can even rescue them in time.
They are going to die and we will never get any wreckage
Why would anyone need to die if no one is ever going to find the wreckage?
I'd expect at least one of them in the wreckage, brother.

>higher ups know there is something out at sea and it MUST be stopped at all costs

>centuries go by
>some idiots with a glorified drone stir up the slumbering beast
Better hope someone out there still remembers what has to be done, and that we have enough brave men left to do it.
You know, death from asphyxiation is only painful because CO2 buildup is painful. If you're trapped in a room with helium or some other inert gas you just get lightheaded and pass out. So if I were on a sub I would take a helium tank and escape bag myself once it became clear it was game over.
