Your hardly going to want to have a chain above you running for miles that you can't see when negotiating your way around a mssive shipwreck site.

I can’t find any reference to it online but it was real because I have a photo in one of my books on the history of steel manufacturing. If I recall which book it was in I’ll post it. Sheffield were the manufacturers of specialist equipment…there was nowhere that could create the things created in Sheffield, even mass carbon steel cities used to come to Sheffield for the equipment they needed to cut their own steel. Armour plate, ship hulls, crankshafts, anchors etc they all came here for them. Largest ingot ever created was in Sheffield too. |

The freakish length was just an example…I wouldn’t have suggested that sort of chain, the links were as big as a man

Oxygen has run out, this should be the last time the UK/US award a license to these companies.

There are a number of issues that will need to be addressed. Sadly Dusty is right in some of his assertations not matter how disgusting they appear.

Ten years from now there will be another entrepreneur offering dives in a submersible to view the Titanic with a bonus trip to view the resting place of the Titan

I didn’t say I hoped they died, I said I think they deserve to. If you read about the list of issues ppl brought against this vessel how can you not determine it was unreliable risky for them to sign something referring to ‘experimental’? Even the glass at the front wouldn’t be authorised to be able to go to that depth by those would manufactured it. |

Fair play to the CEO imo. We only move forward when people like this push the limits of engineering, sometimes too far

By:
The only thing you can say is he went down on it
But what exactly did they learn, other than you need to get a certification from the authorities? |
|
By:
The biggest lesson is for the Billionaires!
I do support the pushing of limits but they were playing Russian Roulette and lost. |
|
By:
We learned a way to study the ocean that works but is dangerous, id like to think his work will still be of use to someone.
The billionaires signed a waiver and gave their money and lives to science. Thanks i suppose. |

By:
We learned that there weren't enough good puns to go with this one. A disappointing haul.

Dusty, it's proven that people who are cruel to animals often go on to be cruel or abusive to humans, possibly even murder.
That's because normal functioning brains are not compatible with cruelly harming animals for sport. That includes firing pellet guns Etc at birds for no reason other than being a Cant. Hth. |

Might have found part of the titanic...

No pecker, didn’t help much
Considering all my years and the number of animals and humans I’ve encountered and the only time I handled a rifle I aimed and shot a scavenger (great shot btw) with a pellet. |
|
By:
Shot didn’t even have the power to kill it, was a shot from distance.
Think it just annoyed it…it was the dog’s jaws that killed it. |

Doc interviewed earlier was certain of "a structural failure... all aboard ... turned into biomass" ...

At least if that is correct it was quick ^ They were never likely to get them up from the seabed anytime soon.

All them planes flying round searching. Youll never guess where we found it

Doc interviewed earlier was certain of "a structural failure... all aboard ... turned into biomass" .................. How come fish don't implode down there  |
|
By:
Those knocks were Jack trying to get rescued, similar to Clooneys character in Gravity knocking on the shuttle hatch
|
|
By:
Jacks in for a shock when he finds out it's 2023, and once he's seen the state of what society has become he'll sling himself back in the north Atlantic

So the knocking has stopped?
It was every 30 minutes ? But debris suggest some disintegration on landing ? So they crash landed but survived and couldn't rise up again ? Confused |
|
By:
The media will make it all sound illogical it's their job
The thing imploded days ago end of |

By:
Friend of passenger confirms its the sub?
Why is a random friend telling the media that and the media are reporting it as confirmation? Why aren't the authorities confirming it to the media and the public? |

OceanGate statement in full
And here's the full statement from the company. "We now believe that our CEO Stockton Rush, Shahzada Dawood and his son Suleman Dawood, Hamish Harding, and Paul-Henri Nargeolet, have sadly been lost. These men were true explorers who shared a distinct spirit of adventure, and a deep passion for exploring and protecting the world’s oceans. Our hearts are with these five souls and every member of their families during this tragic time. We grieve the loss of life and joy they brought to everyone they knew. |
