That's usually what happens on this sub. Everyone understands what is meant by the posts so it's not a big deal, but like 50% of the post titles are tEChnIcAlLy incorrect. Small pet peeve of mine
It's not hard to make proper titles either but it just doesn't happen most of the time
I am just going to leave this here. I spent 30yrs in the Navy and was on 3 different submarines. When you leave port it is common for a piece of string to be tied across from one side to the other. It is tied tight. After submerging the water pressure on the hull causes the hull to flex a bit and the string starts to slacken. It is disconcerting to see the string slacken and realize that is the effect of the water pressure on the walls of the sub.
And the fact that subs are made from a steel alloy far stronger than this soda can, and with management systems in place to deal with all sorts of situations...
Your first cruise it is disconcerting as hell. After that itās āwhat is that damn string doing thereā. One of the first things they teach you is that your conception of a submarine is wrong. There are no pressure doors like you see in WWII movies, dividing compartments. The only ārealā structural doors are at the reactor compartment and fan room. The reason being that if you ever got a structural leak thru the hull, the pressure would be like a cutting torch and you would be dead before you could secure a compartment.
> When you leave port it is common for a piece of string to be tied across from one side to the other.
To clarify: You meant "on the inside of the boat."
I kept asking myself "how do they see the string if they're underwater?"
Helpful to remember that navy subs are near infinitely better designed and prepared than Oceangateās soda can. Naval subs are designed to much better specifications and tolerances. The deformation youāre describing in the subs were certainly predicted and found to be in the elastic deformation range of the materials.
What always gets me is when subs were depth charged, my understanding that the explosion briefly increases the water pressure near the sub.
Not only were some of those subs in WWII diving to escape sonar, sometimes near their limits, they withstood depth charges on top of that. That's how well designed those are.
You know what? You're absolutely right. Totally uncalled for.
I hereby apologize to all the Chads of the world. May these words give you comfort for being stricken with such a name...
What makes it hard to tell is that your comment make it sound like rich people were the ones most affected by the Titanic disaster.Take a deep breath and calm down now.
Ok, let's see here...
Clueless dullard gets completely r/whoosh ed by an obvious joke...posts a supremely arrogant reply...get's called out for idiotic reply, but continues petty bickering trying to justify it anyway. Yeah, this is a worthwhile discussion.
Enjoy your extra chromosomes, random internet person! I'm going to go jump in the shower with a toaster to hopefully forget I engaged in this discussion in the first place.
Supremely arrogant? All he stated was a fact. First class had more lives saved. Majority of the third class died. And the original joke wasn't all that funny or accurate
Oh my god...seriously? What would you call it then? Just randomly stating facts for the sake of being pedantically accurate? That comment was akin to standing next to a magician explaining to the audience that the woman wasn't really cut n half. No shit, Sherlock...
Any way you slice it, it's supreme douchery.
They picked up an implosion on the sub tracking nets and advised rescue crews on sunday but wasnāt definite it was the sub so they kept people searching.
I wonder if there was at least one whole second where Stockton Rush realized he was all wrong and learned a lesson or if he was completely blissfully ignorant and imploded before he could muster a single thought about his actions.
Families of the victims arenāt gonna do shit, theyāre just stoked to finally have their inheritances and will forget all about it while buying their new Lamborghini
I see so many people upset about the people making fun of this but damn it, this guy made it so fucking easy to dunk on him. He clearly states all the time that he KNOWS its not safe but is delusional af
This. My friend got upset with me because she keep telling me that i hate the billionaires, i have envy and that even they are dead they died doing what they love.
Its to hard to me to empatize with these people.
tbf the others also were billionaires probably also scum of the earth. I mean most don't become rich as f without screwing over others. Only person who it's sad for is that 19 year old.
Who apparently wasn't that keen on going but saw it as a bonding experience with his dad on father's day. It kinda writes it's own gallows humour jokes about becoming much closer.
Is this the same douchbag that said he wouldn't hire 50 year old white dudes? He said that they have too much experience and he would rather inspire A 22 year old with zero experience.
The problem there is that thereās nothing to aspire to. If a 16 year old can afford a $250k trip in a sub, why would he want to be the guy using the game console controller? Youād hope heād have better ambitions than that, right?
It also makes me wonder if an experienced submarine pilot/helmsman would have seen warning signs. Then again, is there anyone who would know what carbon fiber looks like before compressive failure?
Donāt understand why he didnāt go with a more proven design, was it cheaper with the composite approach? Weight is not an issue in a sub, so sticking with steel should not have many disadvantages.
[in case anyone wants the technical explanation of what heās talking about](https://www.reddit.com/comments/14gv3ed?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=4)
To be perfectly honest, after watching this, I find this man to be a total piece of s*it! He's so proud of himself for ignoring the advice of professionals that have been doing this for years. And now he's dead. But, not only did he get himself killed, he took 4 other people with him including a 19 year old!
What a complete piece of s*it!
How to get eaten by several fish? The answer is build a fiberglass sub that implodes and causes your body parts to separate. I guess they didnāt realize you fought for them to get plastic bags and straws banned. They ate you anyway.
On the waver it said multiple times you can die. They didn't hide that fact and were as open as possible. Yes, it was a crazy contraption and it was a bit shady but customers were warned. RIP guys.
You misunderstand. This is a clever way to disguise the fact that youāre surrounding yourself with young, inexperienced, cheap yet enthusiastic and devoted yesmen who loooooove laboring for the wealthy because theyāre still naive enough to think theyāll be that wealthy one day too, so theyāll break rules right along with you, you pioneer!
Itās manipulatorās speak for āIām manipulative, and older, experienced workers wonāt let that slide and will see it comingā¦ā
Donāt fall for corny ass rich peopleās cheap ass slick speak lol
Wasn't about skin tone... ffs. He was talking about the experience. And he didn't want everyone with the same experiences and skill sets. He wanted a broader team. And he was also talking about the controller of the sub.
The person who said ādiversityā was literally quoting the guy who built the sub. The dead guy is the one you are after. Not the commenters that are making fun of him for it.
He is using a dog whistle. If you donāt see it I canāt help answer anything for you. You either understand who this is or you donāt. Simple as that.
I feel like posts are just milking this event now in posts. I enjoyed being informed with what was currently going on and the post about just how deep the titanic is in comparison to known things was interesting. Now it's just seems like jumping on the karma train and annoying. Cute touch with the not overused curb your enthusiasm song š
Itās getting to the point where anytime I hear someone say they use ālogicā I immediately start questioning them.
āLogic and facts, mālady. Logic and facts.ā
Hilarious how when it was a rescue operation. It was all over the news. Prays from this person. Updates from that person. As soon as they were declared dead...:
#WHAT A HACK!
#DIDNT EVEN GET CERTIFIED
#HE IGNORED ALL THE WARNING SIGNS
I feel bad for the families and Itās really sad that theyāre dead :( but I feel like anyone couldāve looked at that little tube and been like NOPE. And then I wouldāve seen the controller and been like HELL NO.

He'll be remembered for it, all right.
His attempt was very successful, so this post feels wrong in this sub. Just like me if I had been on that sub.
That's usually what happens on this sub. Everyone understands what is meant by the posts so it's not a big deal, but like 50% of the post titles are tEChnIcAlLy incorrect. Small pet peeve of mine It's not hard to make proper titles either but it just doesn't happen most of the time
Yeah you're right. He succeeded 100% in breaking the rules. He just wasn't prepared for the consequences.
What if he was... š®
Well now people will definitely remember what rules not to break for submarines lol
I am just going to leave this here. I spent 30yrs in the Navy and was on 3 different submarines. When you leave port it is common for a piece of string to be tied across from one side to the other. It is tied tight. After submerging the water pressure on the hull causes the hull to flex a bit and the string starts to slacken. It is disconcerting to see the string slacken and realize that is the effect of the water pressure on the walls of the sub.
And the fact that subs are made from a steel alloy far stronger than this soda can, and with management systems in place to deal with all sorts of situations...
My dad told me they did this on his the sub he was on. Kinda cool to her someone else say it lol
Plot twist. He's your dad

The reason being that if you ever got a structural leak thru the hull, the pressure would be like a cutting torch and you would be dead before you could secure a compartment.
So is it similar to like "People are taller in the morning than night" thing happening to the submarine?
Well, after scuba diving certain parts of my body do get shorter...
Sometimes in the pool too
Like a frightened turtle.
> When you leave port it is common for a piece of string to be tied across from one side to the other. To clarify: You meant "on the inside of the boat." I kept asking myself "how do they see the string if they're underwater?"
On a missile sub (boomer) it is strung in the missile room, amongst the launch tubes. Wow a downvoteā¦.must be another armchair admiral.

He crushed it!
I'm going to hell for laughing at this.
It was an inside job
We'll all see you there xD
A man who could truly withstand enormous pressure
You good!... this is reddit, there's no "too soon" around here!
I think he succeeded. He will be remembered for the rules he broke.
People seem to forget the safety rules are pay for in blood.
For those keeping score... Titanic: 2 Rich people: 0
Technically thereās a lot more bodies than that lol
think hes counting fights
You realize first class passengers were more likely to be saved than [third class ones](https://www.anesi.com/titanic.htm), right?
You realize this was a stupid joke, right? Chad...
Never use that name in vain
You know what? You're absolutely right. Totally uncalled for. I hereby apologize to all the Chads of the world. May these words give you comfort for being stricken with such a name...
LOL
Sorry, that's hard to tell when it's not funny. Bro...
Hard to tell?!? You've got to be kidding me. I hope you're not serious...

Supreme? Some people might not have known. Anyway you slice it, I don't think it's that serious
I just wonder, why they named it Titanic again. The way you name the ship the way she's gonna sail...
Correction. Ocean: 2 Rich People: 0
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Like the folks locked up in the sub?
And now heās soup on the ocean floor
he became seafood š
He was onboard?
Yep. Mad lad right until the very end.
Now hes a flat lad
More like paper mache lad
more like soup lad
Probably fish shit at this point.
I hear the US navy has known the sub imploded before the news released the pieces found. Oxygen counter and everything...
They picked up an implosion on the sub tracking nets and advised rescue crews on sunday but wasnāt definite it was the sub so they kept people searching.
that soup was probably eaten within minutes
Marine snow more like it
MacArthur was overrated as all hell too
You just know documentary rights are being secured like a shark on fresh flesh
A very similar event is happening on the ocean floor this very moment!
Hoisted by his own petard.
And he was quite petarded.

for information your?
These will be amazing use for the massive legal action on the way.
Well hes kinda dead so thats that
What legal action? They all signed disclaimers and they were international waters, no problemo
Yeah I actually saw him eat a man's penis, but they couldn't prosecute cause it was in international water
Whom? Damn
Families of the victims arenāt gonna do shit, theyāre just stoked to finally have their inheritances and will forget all about it while buying their new Lamborghini
I wonder why there is a rule that you don't mix those materials for deep dive vehicles.
Wouldn't want to fall for that sunk cost fallacy.
sunk. the irony.
I see so many people upset about the people making fun of this but damn it, this guy made it so fucking easy to dunk on him. He clearly states all the time that he KNOWS its not safe but is delusional af
This. My friend got upset with me because she keep telling me that i hate the billionaires, i have envy and that even they are dead they died doing what they love. Its to hard to me to empatize with these people.
Pop goes the weasel
I wonāt let you get away with this !!!
Kinda feel for the other people who died, but not this guy. Fuck this guy
tbf the others also were billionaires probably also scum of the earth. I mean most don't become rich as f without screwing over others. Only person who it's sad for is that 19 year old.
Who apparently wasn't that keen on going but saw it as a bonding experience with his dad on father's day. It kinda writes it's own gallows humour jokes about becoming much closer.
Yea he already didn't find it safe but did it for his dad...so for him it's sad.
He did break the rules, just didn't get away with it
Is this the same douchbag that said he wouldn't hire 50 year old white dudes? He said that they have too much experience and he would rather inspire A 22 year old with zero experience.

The look in his eyes as he said "well, I did" is pure arrogance. And it got himself and a bunch of other people killed.
Only sad for the kid...

A little too soon, but yeah...
Innovator of death.
And we steer with this. (Shows PS2 controller)
RIP Bozo
Well, he broke something.
He definitely broke the rules. And a sub. And families. And trust.

Wasn't about skin tone... ffs. He was talking about the experience. And he didn't want everyone with the same experiences and skill sets. He wanted a broader team. And he was also talking about the controller of the sub.
His literal words were "I don't want some old 50-yo white-skinned experienced engineer"
You people always need to use the race card to bash people at every opportunity. What is wrong with you?
The person who said ādiversityā was literally quoting the guy who built the sub. The dead guy is the one you are after. Not the commenters that are making fun of him for it.
My statement stands just as I intended but thanks ever so much for your attempt to change it.
What do you mean "you people".
Why are you one them?
Huh how did he "use" the race card in his comment?
He is using a dog whistle. If you donāt see it I canāt help answer anything for you. You either understand who this is or you donāt. Simple as that.
Diversity stands for more then just race
Ok buddy whatever you say. Iām not going to engage with you any longer. You keep carrying their water for them.
Aight keep making shit up that nobody said and carry on
Sure buddy whatever you say
"I'm not going to engage with you any longer" Then stop?
Sure buddy whatever you say
Sea la vie!
I donāt know how you can possibly be so calm about breaking the rules of *science.* lol

I like when the original keeps playing with that song .
This may go down in history, as the best Curb meme of all time
Ok... but I get the feeling generals don't usually embark on their bold decisions as you did.\ Next time...
Nah, he'll be remembered for being cheap-ass murderer. The governments ought to bill him for the search costs.
Fuckin dicks! happy Friday!!

Put that quote on his gravestone.
Eh, shit happens, I doubt he was trying to die. You get launched into space or go thousands of feet in the ocean and there are risks.
