I did the coral reef thing in Grand Cayman a few years ago. It was pretty cool. I think we stopped at 125 feet.

I am looking to do the exact same thing later this year lol.

Per FOX, Coast Guard just reported 40-41 hours of "breathable air" left on missing sub.

It sounds like the coast guard doesn’t have a vessel in the area

Everything I read said they lost communication 1.5 hours into dive. It takes several hours to get to bottom if not mistaken. So why is it assumed (from a lot of posts) they made it to bottom? Isn’t it just as likely they blew ballast to resurface but currents took then far away and now they are bobbing at surface with no way out?

Its likey they imploded but this return to surface would by my second guess. And would being on surface extend air?

So many questions about this. And why no tether/cable system is just crazy.

Don't get the conspiracy, are yall saying 1 person faked their death and got the other 4 strangers to go along with it also, or kill the other 4 to cover up your faked death? Makes no sense.

Subsea ROVs that are rated to that depth are probably around $10 million. Not including the multiple people needed to operate and maintain them. Now add people into the thing and that $250k per person just ain’t nearly enough money to support that type of operation

A cable is just another thing that can get fouled on the wreckage.

There’s also the issue of dealing with the weight of the cable and the complications of managing it on deck.

not a conspiracy, just an observation, as there would be no evidence 3 miles down to sort thru

and it would have to be all of them faking their deaths.

it is interesting the one guy(Dawood) was high up in the WEF

nothing I could find (so far) much on the others

seems the list is:

Shahzada Dawood, and his son

Hammish hardeing

Paul Henri Nargolet

Stockton Rush (owner)

Renata Rojas (employee)

@AP

The U.S. Coast Guard says a search covering 10,000 square miles off New England has turned up no signs of a deep-sea craft that went missing on a mission to document the wreckage of the Titanic.

Unfortunately - The "sub" is sealed by workers from the outside once the passengers are inside.

So - No, even if they make it to the surface, they are trapped inside waiting to run out of air.

This is what I had been thinking but recently read that an implosion would have caused an underwater noise loud enough to be detected by the US Navy. Supposedly, no such boom has been heard.

Thought I read he was on the rescue vessel not on the Titan. Perhaps I misread it.

They will, without a doubt, get to the bottom of this.
