    All of this is so ridiculous that I’m almost wondering if it’s a cover-up for something. Or they’re faking their deaths for some reason.

    I can’t believe they were piloting this submarine with a cheap controller

      I believe I also saw that they were using glass graded for 1300m max for the viewport. …for a 4000m dive.

      Even if the oxygen supply wasn’t an issue, I can’t imagine that the thing hasn’t shattered by now. I swear, this was all an elaborate ploy to get rid of rich people, because nobody would actually put together a vessel so unsuited for the task.

    I would barely trust true to form meticulously engineered and tested military SSBN submarines like the Ohio Class or Delphin Class to take me several thousand feet underwater. Forget a literal welded tin can with a PS2 controller.
