For those who are unaware: A couple billionaires, a pilot, and one of the billionaires’ son are currently stuck inside an extremely tiny sub a couple thousand meters under the sea (inside of the sub with the guys above).
They were supposed to dive down to the titanic, but lost connection about halfway down. They’ve been missing for the past 48 hours, and have 2 days until the oxygen in the sub runs out. Do you think they’ll make it?
I don’t care how much money I had, there’s no fucking way I would have gotten on that thing or done anything that involved going down into the ocean at that depth.
I would never allow someone to bolt me into a capsule I couldn’t manually exit. That sort of shit is insanely naive.
I think it’s a mentality that people tend to develop when they are insanely wealthy. This notion that because they have extreme wealth, nothing can touch them. I know a family who is very wealthy. The father does things all the time (extreme adventures and travel) that just seems incredibly dangerous. He seems unaware that these little adventures present danger that not even all the money in the world could save him from.
Yeah, I mean, even if your job is literally dangerous as fuck, you can get tripped up for the easiest thing. See: Michael Schumacher
So like… A plane?
Planes have emergency exits that can be opened manually from the inside.
No, because you can evacuate a plane when its landed or when it is in the water. You can’t get out of this death capsule without someone letting you out. If you dont understand the difference then I’m not even going to waste my time explaining it.
