    Yeah, having a shittily built submarine for a billionaire to visit the most famous shipwreck in the world while then joining those who died there 100 years ago, is a pretty unique story that we’ll now always remember whenever we talk about the titanic.

      There’s a real irony in naming your submarine after a shipwreck, neglecting all safety devices like the shipwreck, and talking about how the hull was indestructible.

      The ticking timer is news gold, it creates a real sense of tension…

      you’re right - if those on the sub do happen to have met their end, at least it was done in pursuit of their dream?
