Missing Titanic sub hours from running out of air as search intensifies
Missing Titanic sub hours from running out of air as search intensifies
Five people aboard a missing submersible near the wreck of the Titanic had just hours left of their presumed air supply.
Honestly, as much as I couldn’t care less about billionaires stuck in a sub because they ignored all safety mesures / warnings, they’re still human beings and I’m sure they're scared as hell. Couldn’t imagine being where they are right now.
That being said, I wish the boat that sank with hundreds of people sinking on it had more coverage than this is getting…
Yeah they're bunch of over privileged entitled pricks and I'm angry that people with that kind of money to blow exist and got themselves into this mess because they think rules don't apply to them, but I am absolutely unable to feel any glee in this because it's a really fucked up way to go if they're trapped. Just imagining it makes me nauseous. I just hope the sub imploded and they died a quick death.
I happen to watch a news channel that covered that immigrant ship in Greece as it happened but the sub definitely attracted more interest and conversations... I do think the schadenfreude has to do with a lot of it.
I wonder what effect it could have if he was rescued at the last moment. Either he would become recluse and nuts or become the most altruistic person ever. We may never know since they ain't found shit.
Yeah we really don't know how they'll be after this if they're found. Will they be careful next time and listen to reason? Or keep a YOLO mentality? Who knows.
this is so sad
Won't someone think of the billionaires?
I'm no fan of billionaires, but at the end of the day these are human lives, and this is a pretty unique and interesting situation that a lot of people are understandably interested in and curious about, so will you get the fuck off of your high horse?
If you want to criticize how we're not doing enough to help with other emergencies, then go ahead and do that, in fact, I encourage you to do that, spread awareness, try to make a difference. Use this situation as an example of the kinds of resources that are out that that could potentially have been mobilized for other disasters but weren't, you can even try to make arguments that maybe some of these resources could have been better used for other current situations.
Just because there are other, greater emergencies, doesn't make this one any less sad, and it certainly doesn't this one any less unique and interesting.
Searching for a bunch of rich sissies who died of their hubris.
Can you think of a bigger waste of resources?
