I thought I'd post some stuff on the Oceangate mop up, as 'twere.

I'll keep dropping them in here as I find them.

(Stockton Rush is a 24kt cock sucker who didn't know what he was getting into and was happy to risk others in his crazy venture.)

This one caught my eye with it's 'I don't understand even basic physics' comment that Titan 'depressurized'.

If there is one thing that did not happen to Titan it was any decrease in pressure...

OceanGate hit with $50M wrongful death lawsuit over submersible implosion

The family of a French diver who perished in the Titan implosion say the crew likely experienced terror and mental anguish and knew they were about to die.

There is a Netflix docco out I watched recently that showed how Rush would bully and legally intimidate anyone who came to him with concerns about the safety of the design.

I also found it really cringy the way Rush would refer to his paying passengers as 'mission specialists'.

Stockton was a NASA wanna be space man who couldn't get in and carried this space odyssy wankery over to ocean exploration. Actually, less like exploration and more like a pay per trip Disney Titantic bus tour.

The docco shows them testing scaled prototypes in high pressure containers and you can hear the strands of carbon fibre cracking as the pressure increased and then the 'bang!' as the implosion happened.
 
My theory is Stockton Rush was a kind of Jim Jones kind of character. He knew that his design was flawed and that it would inevitably implode and kill him and everyone else on board. He likely had some sort of sick doom fetish, having people sign his contract which explicitly stated death was a likely outcome, this was part of the actual contract the customers had to sign. It goes even deeper, no pun intended, Stockton Rush was dangerously obsessed with the idea of dying on the actual Titanic, fantasizing of going down with it in 1912. His wife Wendy is actually the great-great-granddaughter of Isidor and Ida Straus, the founders of Macy's who famously went down with the ship. The very name of the sub, Titan, is merely a shortened name for Titanic. He died exactly how he wanted to, on the Titan, surrounded by rich people, with his remains forever scattered across the actual Titanic - ironically within feet of the actual deck were his inlaws would have died 110 years earlier.

That's a good point. The document I posted above argues that Rush knew the sub body was flawed, left it outside during the worst Newfoundland winter in 50 years where any moisture in the rats nest of carbon fibre which was already delaminating would expand as it froze. Despite being told not to.

The theory is that he knew the construction method was flawed and he needed to do at least one more dive with paying passengers on board to afford, at the very least, to build a new pressure vessal. The first dive of the season after the outside over winter was the one that imploded.

Yes. He definitely knew there was a very high chance of delamination which, at nearly any depth, would be instantly fatal to all on board, but he and his company failed to disclose just how high a chance this deadly scenario actually was. In the short term, after just a half dozen or so dives, the hull would have been already heavily damaged by micro fractures, he knew this as the original Titan sub was scrapped for this exact reason as indicated by his materials scientists. By the time of his fatal dive these experts had already been fired or quit out of the sheer absurdity of their boss continuing this project. He either was very stupid or wanted to die.
 
i don't blame him, i blame the fools who willingly went down to that depth (9000 feet) with him in a vessel with an unproven design.

13000' I believe...

But yes. Your point is valid.

Pressure at 13000' is 6000 psi.

My high pressure 5hp motor powered water sprayer, which can cut concrete if you spend too long in the one spot, is rated to 3000 psi.
