Quoted: I’d imagine it would be more about the searching and rescue than the days in the tiny can. View Quote You need to add a supernatural element. Like they all pass out and are suddenly on the titanic on the night of the disaster, and they have to warn the captain about what happens, but he won't listen to the weird stowaways, and they have to survive the sinking |

Quoted: . Coincidentally I may resemble that remark View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: A question for those who know something about carbon fiber structures, because I don't. I thought (could be wrong) that carbon fiber is very strong in tension but not so good in compression. Therefore with a pressure vessel, a carbon fiber construction would be good if you were going to put 5-6000psi inside the container. That way the container is trying to expand, like a balloon, and carbon fibers are in tension and that's where they are strong and the container works. But with this sub the carbon fibers are being compressed by water forces around the outside. If carbon fiber is weak in compression isn't this whole design wrong? . Coincidentally I may resemble that remark I'm with ya though, my thoughts exactly on the material science of carbon fiber. |

The final scene is the implosion at the time of lost contact. |

Quoted: Correct, CO2 poisoning is suffocating because you can't exhale/off-gas. We can survive ok, down to about 14% O2 (for a little while) but if CO2 gets too high, we can't exchange gasses. At 40% CO2, you would suffocate even if the O2 concentration was a normal 21%. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: CO2 poisoning is not "falling asleep."

Your brain would be crushed before it could interpret any visual signals.
Should be a lights out situation with the nearly instantaneous compression acting on every surface. Plus the inrush forces would cause a huge pressure spike one all the gasses were compressed. I can't math that one out but it is way over that constant 6000psi. |

I know, F CBS and all, but give this a watch. It seems the reporter was less than impressed.

had a thought which I'm sure has already come up seeing that this thread increased by 40 pages overnight but i Haven't read through them all yet
shouldn't the "mother ship" have had a second sub or at least one of those remote unmanned ones to be able to immediately go after the tourist sub when they lost contact? |

Quoted: The Titan incident is the exact opposite and pushed to extremes, rather than getting sucked out a small hole or having your blood boil (de-compressed), they are going to get crushed into a layer of pate' between two layers of hull. View Quote Nah, carbon fiber won’t crush like a can it will shatter. They will be impaled by shards and crushed by the pressure at the same time. |

Seeing all the bullshit build quality, I get the impression that the CEO dude would have tried to reach orbit with a rocket made of sonotube and bottle rockets.

The documentary Last Breath is a great watch. This story reminded me about it, though they're different scenarios. Worth the couple bucks to rent since it's not on Netflix anymore.

Quoted: Quoted: Bob Ballard described what a sub implosion at great depth would be like. He said the incredibly fast and violent compression of the air inside the vessel would basically cause everything to ignite like diesel fuel in a Diesel engine. Then immediately be extinguished by the water Would you even see a flash? Not if you blinked. |

The Challenger Deep model cost $48 million in 2018 so the Titanic version should be cheaper. If I was a billionaire and wanted to see Titanic why not just find someone who has one and ride down with them, paying for the cost of the surface ship and everything else? No, instead go with the carbon fiber knock off Xbox controller woke new submarine company. |
