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 just checked the BBC news website. The sub wreckage has been found. They are confirmed deceased.

      Interestingly, they’re saying that the Titan imploded but that they’re “believed to be dead.”

      I guess you need even more evidence to pronounce someone officially dead.

        It’s not like an airplane where if you find a wing you might find some survivors down the road.

        If you find a submarine window there are no survivors down the road waiting and waving flags at 5000 meters under the surface of the water.

          Ahh, yes, sorry. I was being a bit sarcastic that they had to use the term believed (probably legally) even though the thing imploded.

        Yes. Maybe “confirmed” was the wrong word.
