I belive it was said with 2 dissimilar materials, adhesive and fiber, you can't non destructive test properly. That's the problem.


That's right -- the flexion of pressure applied and removed creates integrity issues with the composite. It makes sense.

Found this article on exactly what happened to them trauma-wise when it imploded.
What really happens to the human body at immense pressures.

This part really stood out to me:

quote:

As the submersible collapses, the quickly compressing pockets of gas inside it heat up rapidly, reaching temperatures that may exceed several thousand degrees Celsius for a brief moment. The searing heat would vaporize flesh and bone, but this pales in comparison to the rapid pressure changes already wreaking havoc on the body. The passengers would already be dead due to the massive bodily trauma by the time the heat wave hits.
