Bodies were probably almost completely disintegrated
So, just goo. That douchey stepson can hire Blink 182 to play his fricking birthday party now, if he wants.

They def knew.

They’ll write it off as a real world training exercise. they probably knew what happened to them fairly early on but there is still a lot that can be learned from the search. You don’t gain value experience if you just immediately throw up your hands up and stay home because you’re fairly certain they’re dead anyway.

If you look at the Acoustic chart someone posted, you can see the line starting to get a more "thick" look to it at the 39-40 minute mark. That goes on a bit before the big boom. My guess is that was the moaning of the hull structure.
Man, if I had that amount of time to know I was about to die, I would go ham on that OceanGate CEO dude. This was his creation, his idea. Am I am dumbass for getting on this thing? Yep. But I may as well take my frustration out on this dude. I bet the other 4 dudes beat him to death before they imploded.

Basically 5 minutes of WTF is that noise inside before POOF.

So they maybe had close to 5-15 minutes of a realization that that thing is about to implode on them from the initial impulse signature until the end? Sheeesh

Are we to surmise that at the first 'sounds', they lost the ability to communicate? If not, wouldn't it have been prudent to stop, turn around and start ascending to lessen pressure?

Wasn't there a confirmed report that the mothership did receive a distress message moments before they lost communication? If that's the case, it matches up here.

Horrible way to go in that case.
Why weren’t the distress calls ever reported? Read that the OceanGate operators didn’t notify the USCG for an additional 8 hours. Seems fishy. No pun intended.

Actually a decent IQ I think.
I really didn't think of how the vessel would implode. It would probably remain somewhat intact in large pieces. It could have created the debris field.
I was thinking bits and small pieces floating all around. It wouldn't do that. I was a bit high when posting earlier.

The problem with that though is that even if you began an immediate accent you’re too far down to escape the inevitable. You’re still dealing with an immense amount of pressure even if you managed to ascend from 2.5 miles down to 1 mile down. Even if they managed to reach the surface and avoided the pending implosion, the rapid ascent would have probably killed them anyway because the nitrogen in their blood would have cooked them

Wouldn't the nitrogen in their blood be at 1 atm the entire trip?

Yeah it sounds like they lost control, lost comm’s, started sinking, then imploded.
frick that shite.
The news is saying they can recover the debris and plan to bring it up.

No one was suspicious that the debris field appeared just as the air was scheduled to run out?
They almost certainly snuffed it shortly after the 1 hour 45 minute mark when the coms cut out. 4 days of media hand wringing for something already known.

WSJ (behind paywall) just announced the US Navy disclosed they heard the implosion when it happened
Why not just disclose that up front and avoid the farce and expense of "searching for them"?

Distraction.
Same reason the Chinese spy balloon wasn't shot out of the sky.
Keep the dumb-masses occupied.
