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?

    How so? Seems like a shit way to die to me. It’s not fast. Plus you are crammed in with a bunch of other dudes.

    I guess once you pass out from anoxic brain injury, it might peaceful.

      I’ve heard that if the sub imploded that they’d have died instantly.

        Big if, because if they didn’t then they are stuck in a dark, cold tube until they run out of food, water, hope and then air.

        Very curious to see what is learned about this later, like would the ship that dropped them off, who was listening for them, not have heard the implosion if it did occur? Maybe the ship wasn’t listening in that way. Details are limited.

      As long as their CO2 absorbers hold out, hypoxia is a pretty easy way to go. Pretty much any other option sound real bad though.
