Yup they actually said even getting in your car is a risk so therefore its normal to sink down to Titanic depth in a squishy carbon fibre box 📦 that crackles and pops, cos life is a risk
He even fired the REAL engineer when he alarmed him about the flaw on that sub. Reason for fired because "he was old and slow". Then he hired 3 leftards for "young and fast" and this is the consequence of that action.
So if these messages are real, they knew for at least 18 minutes that something was terribly wrong 😱😱 Poor kid, who had already been terrified to go. He probably had a premonition. Imagine the sense of utter dread and panic, knowing you’re totally doomed 💔

This debate is most likely false, carbon fiber doesn't make cracking noises, when it weakens it almost immediately breaks into multiple pieces, and since the hull was made of carbon fiber, I'm pretty sure to say that ~20 minutes of 'noises' harassing the crew and passengers is a indicative of a false debate
2:03 the last message made by the submarine at 09:46:37. They were at 3,457 meters according to the message They didn't respond to the next message so they probably died within 2 minutes - but instantaneously. RIP, Titan sub and its occupants.
@Reddzion that's not what they said. They were just tracking the time until their oxygen would hypothetically run out and thus it would be impossible to save them. They only found out how they died a little bit later In truth they were there to confirm the deaths
@@Reddzion Rush’s partner is no less than a jerk. I think he was hoping against hope. Cameron said notes were being shared in their small community to understand what happened. I think it is this same script circulated. But their conclusions were not being heard.
If these messages are real, I'm glad we're finding out more information on what caused this terrible, terrible incident. Rest in peace the victims and condolences to the families. Must've been absolutely terrifying hearing the crackling sounds. -edit
I always find the scariest stuff at 10 at night. I feel so bad for the loss of the families. Makes my skin crawl thinking of being down in the ocean and knowing you might not make it out.
James Cameron said he suspected the occupants would've heard the de-lamination of their carbon fibre hull before it imploded. A "crackling sound", I guess, would be how that sounded.
The people on the sub all knew they were in huge trouble. They could all hear the crackling and crunching of the carbon fiber failing, all around them. They tried repeatedly to drop the frame from the sub before it dropped off and still the sub did not want to start surfacing. Somewhere on that sub, parts never meant to retain seawater were retaining sea water and therefore adding weight that was not allowing the sub to surface. It could have been battery cases swelling as sea water forced its way inside and blew them up like a balloon of weight. It could have been hose exteriors doing the same thing. Even worse, there could have been an exterior carbon fiber delamination that sea water was prying apart and creating a void that sea water was rushing inside to add weight to the sub and hold it down. Every person on that sub knew they were about to die. And they knew from before 9:28:16 to 9:46:37. Eighteen minutes is a long time to see death coming for you and to know you are in the very worst place you could ever be to meet it. You have no escape. This is the legacy of Stockton Rush and his statement, "Safety is relative." Safety is not relative anymore.
@@yorick9874 This is what @ecsyntric said: the key is they could not ascend. it was very slow. normally once weights are dropped, all air tight capsules float to the top quickly nothing incompressible is affected even if water infiltrates into spaces with equipment even if the hull is delaminating, there is nothing to compress - doesn't add weight to the sub so nothing "blows up" in these conditions only thing pulling sub up is the thruster and the buoyancy from the air inside the hull only thing pulling it down is the total weight they jettisoned the weights/frame but still could not rise the only conclusion is either (a) they were overweight from the start (b) somehow slowly lost buoyancy which is hard to explain [c] thought they dropped weight as communicated but did not drop enough in reality
Even if that's not how physics work, you paint a haunting picture. I can imagine invisible hands slowly picking and prying at the hull of the sub. It's finger slowly slipping into cracks and pulling slowly, letting just that bit more water in. Eventually getting all the way through before suddenly ripping the sub in two and imploding on itself
I still don’t get how anyone would dive to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in this thing. If a group of my fellow engineering students had been given a task to construct a submersible that can bring about 4 people to the bottom of the local lake, on a 500€ budget and about 4 weeks time to do it, the solution we would come up with would look something like the Titan.
@@geoff-lukebihler6157 Are you telling me that hull is not even stell but some weaker material? That they would use at least steel, if not something stronger, I just took as an asumption when you're building a deep see submarine.
I'm sure everyone on board was terrified in their last moments hearing the obvious sounds of the carbon fiber hull cracking knowing they were all doomed.
Makes you wonder what the last thing they process is. They definitely feel fear, but then in the few seconds before failure did something happen that _could_ make them understand they're about to die. They have just a bit of hope they might make it out, but did something happen that made them understand their fate was sealed? Or did they only feel fear and vain hope before suddenly...

I think the saddest part is what the guy above me mentioned about the refugees, at least 80 died and there are 500 missing people but no one cares about that
That messages, if true, show many things. One is that panic might have occurred inside the sub, with all passengers so close to each other, they were all aware of the alarms and what the CEO was reporting to the ship above. The other is that oceangate knew right away that the sub had imploded. That was no way they would take so much time to report the missing sub, that disappeared sending distress signals, if they didn’t know they were done for. I mean, it was on everyone’s best interest to have the sub come back safely, so…
Honestly, at that depth and all the pressures involved, difficulty of even doing a rescue, etc. the second I first heard the report that the sub was missing I was immediately like "They're already dead."
They’re not real. This sounds like high school fan fiction to be honest, it’s inconsistent with transcripts we have from documentary recordings ( we know how Stockton communicates to surface)
It’s horrifying to know for a fair few minutes there they knew they were goners but the madness that would have followed that thought process will haunt that part of the ocean for quite some time😔

@@elpersonpl576 they were a bunch of goons with how dumb it was to go into the ocean in that thing to begin with, tbh. Call me disrespectful all you want, but this is just a classic case of natural selection.
for me it's the thought of sliding into death like it's a slipper. one second they're aware of their surroundings and the situation, and not even a millisecond later; nothing. sure, they didn't experience any pain but it's such a weird thought. no more different than going to sleep, but one they'll never wake up from.
well, all except the kid who was dragged kicking and screaming (literally) into his own tomb. He knew that this would be a horrible idea, yet just like always, nobody listened to the criticisms or analysis. If it wasn't for that innocent kid being taken with the crew, i'd have said good riddance to the lot of em. Sadly though, idiots always know the best ways to make those around them suffer for their ignorance.
The Titanium end cap popped off aft. The carbon fiber was actually under 5 inches thick on both ends. The video of titans assembly clearly shows tapered ends for the titanium rings to be literally glued on. Stockton Rush actually says the fit must be uniform and small but not too small. The carbon fiber Epoxy was cracked enough for the vessel to lose the round shape or even a pin hole seal was enough to give way and boom! The ring and titanium cap came off aft following implosion and only caps left
these scripts already gave me goosebumps and it disturbs me imagine how those passengers felt during their time inside that sub, the cracking sounds, the panicking inside, the struggle to ascend, that terrified kid who doesnt want to go, and then suddenly lights out...brutal but a quick death...
@Ryan-qm3rm it wasn’t a false rumor his aunt said the opposite of what his mom said, either or could be true. The loss of life is sad though may he rest in peace
what i still find weird is that their death was instant, like no pain, just lights out. instantly, and its literally like you closing your eyes right now.
As sad as it is it is a pure example of physics. One second youre here exhisting on this earth and within miliseconds you cease yo exhist and are nothing more than particles in the ocean. Reduced to mere atoms.
those final minutes prior to the implosion had to so gut wrenching. knowing something is going wrong and there isn't a single thing you can do about it other than cling to hope. at least the moment of death itself was instantaneous.
I feel most bad for the wife of the father and son that passed. She was supposed to go on the trip 2 years ago (i believe the article said) with her husband, but covid delayed it. Their son became old enough so he went instead. She probably feels terrible, I know I would. I feel bad for everyone involved, i just feel the most sympathy for her.
The 19 year old, breaks my heart. The adults, eyes wide open, knew what they were doing, proceeded anyway. But the 19 year old is never on this without his dad's input. As a father of 4 young men this one really hits me, I cried for this young man I never knew.
I feel bad for the kid but have absolutely zero sympathy for the CEO. He wasn't an innovator, he was a cheap liar. I hope the company gets sued to hell and sinks.
It gets me even worse because he was genuinely terrified and didn’t want to go according to one of his family members but was pressured into it to make his dad proud...
What's crazy is, I'm fairly certain the Titan sub made dives before and somehow didn't break, so the fact that something so shitty like this was able to happen multiple times is crazy
1:55 This is where it happened. Their death must have been instant and painless, but I start to think that they must have figured out something was terribly wrong because they reported cracking sounds.
"Gosh! Maybe we made a mistake getting into a sub held together with glue. How could I have been so stupid?!" In the words of Mr. Miyagi - "Squish, just like grape."
The sub would have survived if the entire hull was made out of titanium which would have cost much but much more than the lives of those onboard. Another thing is they should have cancelled the hole thing the moment RTM sign went red and alert. Recovery and aborting of the mission at that point could have possibly saved them.
@@mikhailvasiliev6275 few layers of reinforced glass with the minimum opening so that the pressure on the surface area is equally compensated also if that hinters the sight multiple cameras all round could be used.
This is truly terrifying. They dropped the ballast and the frame and still could only ascend very slowly. That means they were probably taking on more weight somewhere in the form of water entering the hull under enormous pressure. If so the hull was already compromised. Death was only seconds away at that point.
@@leolen8029 My guess is that the ballast didn't drop as intended. Likely only lost a portion of it, and the system failed afterwards. They mentioned multiple attempts at disconnecting the frame, so it's likely there were other failures as well.
One of the prime reasons regulations like OSHA exist yet people still treat it as some joke until tragedy strikes. Humanity being the best competitor at the darwin awards as always.
Watching this at quarter past 2 in the morning 💀 seriously tho at least they werent terrifyed for hours and their transition was quick, rest in peace, may safety be the top top priority for any such vessels from now on!
Allegedly, these detailed conversations were impossible, and only single words were possible. If that is true, the above conversations are a fraud. I guess we should be careful what we believe. Sanjosemike (no longer in CA)
Too many people to blame. But Rest their souls. I don’t understand why there was so many warnings and yet this sub WAS STILL continuing to operate despite how dangerous it was.
Holy f*** that's so creepy, is like... everything is going wrong and any attempts to reach the surface again are in vain... and then the silence, the spine-chilling silence...
Honestly, I find it highly unlikely for this to be real. There is no way they wouldnt ascend with a normal speed after jettisoning the ballast, because thats not how physics work. That would mean the sub is either smaller than usually or significantly heavier, which could only be explained by water leaking inside, which at these depths isnt possible. Its either no leaks or implosion. It would also mean they would have descended significantly faster than usual, which they would have noticed.
They did notice the faster decent. That's why topside asks if they need to adjust velocity. Also, iget what you're saying about it is either no leaks or an impossible but seems water may have been leaking in to the exterior of the sub, between the outermost layers of the hull. That would explain the reduced buoyancy and a descent rate that kept climbing as they went deeper
The USS Thresher had a similar issue but had a completely different ballast system. The Titan ballast, while ridiculous, is pretty basic. Drop heavy thing, heavy thing no longer weighing you down. And even further, drop frame, frame no longer holding you do. Pretty simple. This leak doesn’t seem true. But only the NTSB knows for sure right now.
@Ryan-qm3rm OceanGate was obviously image-conscious. Maybe security on the Polar Prince prevented it from being exported at first and it wasn't possible to leak initially for some reason we arent aware of. Or I suspect it was leaked more or less initially and we are only seeing it now.
@Ryan-qm3rm I'm not saying it is necessarily real, tough to say at this point. I'm just saying the timing of the publication of it is actually totally consistent with a realistic leak. So timing alone is not a good reason to discount it.
They were descending too fast because they were too heavy, as evidenced by the fact that dropping their ballast did not cause the vessel to rise as it should have. Even after dropping the frame, it was still rising too slowly. Combine this with the use of carbon fibre and you have a recipe for disaster.
My take is Rush pushed for a fast descent to maximize time at the Titanic. If they can only be under for a set number of hours, why waste more of it with the trip down. Then he could also brag about how his "innovative" design allows passengers more time at depth.
It's spine-chilling !! So technically the implosion may have happened at around 09:46:37 (about 1h 45) into the dive, however, the trouble started at around 09:28. So, 18 mnts of trouble-shooting and uncertainty......Gosh that's hard to imagine !! 😢😢
RIP to those people. And thank u for not making a meme about it or something. People who laugh and make memes about it are just monsters. Imagine being their families and having to see a bunch of people making fun of their death. I'm so glad there's still a lot of people who are nice about it like you, and most people in this comment section ❤️ 🕊️
People are like "so glad it was instant, they never knew". Lmao. They were in panic mode for 20 minutes at least before contact was lost. Mounting panic as they struggle to try to ascend. It was hell in that sub, trust me. Trapped at the bottom of the ocean, hearing the hull crackling...
I'm late to comment but from a dissection by someone that knows about submersibles A) They were descending too fast B) They weren't communicating back enough info to the top, CEO thought it was annoying to do so C) They couldn't ascend because sea water was rushing in where sea water has no business being in D) As soon as the cracking started, their fate was sealed, they died in about 1 milisecond and couldn't even register what happened
the cracks started and ended before they died, not saying its not related to the final implosion, but that the cracks you are refering to were not the exact cause of the implosion.
I imagine there were huge arguments that erupted when those cracking sounds happened, with the CEO assuring them it’s fine and then when they couldn’t ascend
The only silver lining to this entire situation was it happened so quickly that they were dead before their brains could even register something was happening
Note at 2:15, the texts from the sub have bad grammar, and are short and lowercase, this indicates rush was probably panicked and urgent to fix the problem
I’ve heard that (what I guess is) stock background music/sound in dozens of these videos now and it’s still as creepy as the first time I heard it. It only adds to the real life dire and unfortunate situation that this crew found themselves in. The ocean is a demonic place.
I guess that he had such a ghoulish love for the Titanic wreck that he became part of it. Sad - and even more tragic is that he took four unwitting souls with him…
They obviously knew there was a problem and we're trying to work the problem out for about 20 minutes so that must have been terrifying hearing those sounds cracking their last 20 minutes must have been torture this is really awful news
The horror building up to the imposition must’ve been horrible. The quiet noises becoming loud and soon shaking,it’d be horrible. May those 4 men and that innocent boy rest in heaven. ❤
@@SharplyDressedPlagueDoctor You think people dying is funny? There was a 19 year old who was scared to death to go on it but he went on it for his father. Basically your saying death is funny.
This whole tragedy is a cautionary tale for people to listen to their instincts and speak up at the first sign of trouble. Even before the trip in the titan, why weren’t there bells going off when Rush was showing everyone the kiddie gadgets he was using to run the sub? He was playing toy ship instead of properly handling a sub and it got himself and four others killed because of the negligence.
It's also a cautionary tale for people to ditch a progressive mindset when people's lives are on the line. Rush fired experienced Navy safety officers because they were "old white dudes" and weren't "inspiring" enough. Rush intentionally ignored legitimate safety concerns due to who was saying it and that negligence resulted in innocent people dying.
I can only imagine the mayhem that ensued inside that thing once it became clear they wouldn't resurface. People tend to get violent and go into full panic mode once that realisation sets in. Imagine 5 people cramped in a place just a bit bigger than a porta potty panicking and realising they were about to die. They were probably already preety injured before the implosion.
there was one video where the late CEO said that they "would hear noises LONG before there was a problem".....well, they likely were leaking water but at that depth that was a death sentence. When the sub imploded, the force was stronger (and faster) than if they had 30kg of TNT go off in front of their face. They all died so fast that the would never have seen or felt anything. I suppose that would be "better" than freezing to death in the depths or suffocating on the surface since the sub had to be opened from the outside and they had no way to exit themselves.
So lets go over what this says The sub made it to 3400 meters before the entire hull was compromised Crackling sounds, possibly the thruster shrouds being crushed? Loss of power Total loss of communications after releasing both ballast and frame They absolutely knew they were dead, right there. If they lost power and sank to the bottom, the sub was never going to survive, and they never reached the surface again.
My favorite photo to come out of this was the side by side comparison of James Cameron's submersible, which is crammed wall to wall with technical equipment, versus the Oceangate submersible which is an empty tube with an Xbox controller.

Every single person that warned the CEO was an "old white dude", and that is why he ignored them. Progressive mindrot at work, and sadly it led to the death of innocent people.
Yup they actually said even getting in your car is a risk so therefore its normal to sink down to Titanic depth in a squishy carbon fibre box 📦 that crackles and pops, cos life is a risk
He even fired the REAL engineer when he alarmed him about the flaw on that sub. Reason for fired because "he was old and slow". Then he hired 3 leftards for "young and fast" and this is the consequence of that action.

@@LittleLulubeeA later report from the mother contradicts that and says he was excited to go.
This debate is most likely false, carbon fiber doesn't make cracking noises, when it weakens it almost immediately breaks into multiple pieces, and since the hull was made of carbon fiber, I'm pretty sure to say that ~20 minutes of 'noises' harassing the crew and passengers is a indicative of a false debate

James Cameron said he suspected the occupants would've heard the de-lamination of their carbon fibre hull before it imploded. A "crackling sound", I guess, would be how that sounded.
The people on the sub all knew they were in huge trouble. They could all hear the crackling and crunching of the carbon fiber failing, all around them. They tried repeatedly to drop the frame from the sub before it dropped off and still the sub did not want to start surfacing. Somewhere on that sub, parts never meant to retain seawater were retaining sea water and therefore adding weight that was not allowing the sub to surface. It could have been battery cases swelling as sea water forced its way inside and blew them up like a balloon of weight. It could have been hose exteriors doing the same thing. Even worse, there could have been an exterior carbon fiber delamination that sea water was prying apart and creating a void that sea water was rushing inside to add weight to the sub and hold it down. Every person on that sub knew they were about to die.
And they knew from before 9:28:16 to 9:46:37.
Eighteen minutes is a long time to see death coming for you and to know you are in the very worst place you could ever be to meet it. You have no escape.

absolutely wrong .. read my comment
@@ecsyntric And what does your comment say? Because i'm not gonna search through 400+ comments.
@@yorick9874 This is what @ecsyntric said:
the key is they could not ascend. it was very slow. normally once weights are dropped, all air tight capsules float to the top quickly
nothing incompressible is affected even if water infiltrates into spaces with equipment even if the hull is delaminating, there is nothing to compress - doesn't add weight to the sub so nothing "blows up" in these conditions
only thing pulling sub up is the thruster and the buoyancy from the air inside the hull only thing pulling it down is the total weight
they jettisoned the weights/frame but still could not rise
the only conclusion is either (a) they were overweight from the start (b) somehow slowly lost buoyancy which is hard to explain [c] thought they dropped weight as communicated but did not drop enough in reality
"Safety is relative"? 🤨 Sounds like something a guy who didn't want to hire "old white men" to virtue signal would say.
Even if that's not how physics work, you paint a haunting picture. I can imagine invisible hands slowly picking and prying at the hull of the sub. It's finger slowly slipping into cracks and pulling slowly, letting just that bit more water in. Eventually getting all the way through before suddenly ripping the sub in two and imploding on itself
I still don’t get how anyone would dive to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean in this thing. If a group of my fellow engineering students had been given a task to construct a submersible that can bring about 4 people to the bottom of the local lake, on a 500€ budget and about 4 weeks time to do it, the solution we would come up with would look something like the Titan.

That messages, if true, show many things.

The other is that oceangate knew right away that the sub had imploded.

The carbon fiber Epoxy was cracked enough for the vessel to lose the round shape or even a pin hole seal was enough to give way and boom! The ring and titanium cap came off aft following implosion and only caps left

worse, the hull wasn't inspected after each dive.
That's because the previous dives were causing structural damage every time they went down. These folks just lost the lottery on when it would fail.

The sub would have survived if the entire hull was made out of titanium which would have cost much but much more than the lives of those onboard.

This is truly terrifying. They dropped the ballast and the frame and still could only ascend very slowly. That means they were probably taking on more weight somewhere in the form of water entering the hull under enormous pressure. If so the hull was already compromised. Death was only seconds away at that point.
You don’t take on water at that depth, if water got in its at the implosion.

Risking your own life in a sub you know isn't safe is one thing but putting 4 other lives in danger is straight up devious.
Honestly, I find it highly unlikely for this to be real. There is no way they wouldnt ascend with a normal speed after jettisoning the ballast, because thats not how physics work. That would mean the sub is either smaller than usually or significantly heavier, which could only be explained by water leaking inside, which at these depths isnt possible. Its either no leaks or implosion. It would also mean they would have descended significantly faster than usual, which they would have noticed.
They did notice the faster decent. That's why topside asks if they need to adjust velocity.
Also, iget what you're saying about it is either no leaks or an impossible but seems water may have been leaking in to the exterior of the sub, between the outermost layers of the hull. That would explain the reduced buoyancy and a descent rate that kept climbing as they went deeper
The USS Thresher had a similar issue but had a completely different ballast system. The Titan ballast, while ridiculous, is pretty basic. Drop heavy thing, heavy thing no longer weighing you down. And even further, drop frame, frame no longer holding you do. Pretty simple.
This leak doesn’t seem true. But only the NTSB knows for sure right now.
@Ryan-qm3rm and why is that
@Ryan-qm3rm OceanGate was obviously image-conscious. Maybe security on the Polar Prince prevented it from being exported at first and it wasn't possible to leak initially for some reason we arent aware of. Or I suspect it was leaked more or less initially and we are only seeing it now.
@Ryan-qm3rm I'm not saying it is necessarily real, tough to say at this point. I'm just saying the timing of the publication of it is actually totally consistent with a realistic leak. So timing alone is not a good reason to discount it.
They were descending too fast because they were too heavy, as evidenced by the fact that dropping their ballast did not cause the vessel to rise as it should have. Even after dropping the frame, it was still rising too slowly. Combine this with the use of carbon fibre and you have a recipe for disaster.
My take is Rush pushed for a fast descent to maximize time at the Titanic. If they can only be under for a set number of hours, why waste more of it with the trip down. Then he could also brag about how his "innovative" design allows passengers more time at depth.
too many fat billionaires
Damn, I feel bad.
The death of all members on board is freaky, sad and haunting. Hearing the cracking must have been nerve-wracking

I don't really think that makes it better
I'm late to comment but from a dissection by someone that knows about submersibles
A) They were descending too fast
B) They weren't communicating back enough info to the top, CEO thought it was annoying to do so
C) They couldn't ascend because sea water was rushing in where sea water has no business being in
D) As soon as the cracking started, their fate was sealed, they died in about 1 milisecond and couldn't even register what happened
the cracks started and ended before they died, not saying its not related to the final implosion, but that the cracks you are refering to were not the exact cause of the implosion.
The thing that gets me mad is that we ignored 500 other deaths and payed so much attention to Titan
I imagine there were huge arguments that erupted when those cracking sounds happened, with the CEO assuring them it’s fine and then when they couldn’t ascend
The only silver lining to this entire situation was it happened so quickly that they were dead before their brains could even register something was happening
They knew something was happening that’s the scary part
they knew they were going to die for over 18 mins
Note at 2:15, the texts from the sub have bad grammar, and are short and lowercase, this indicates rush was probably panicked and urgent to fix the problem
I’ve heard that (what I guess is) stock background music/sound in dozens of these videos now and it’s still as creepy as the first time I heard it. It only adds to the real life dire and unfortunate situation that this crew found themselves in. The ocean is a demonic place.

@@basketrobins yes
This whole tragedy is a cautionary tale for people to listen to their instincts and speak up at the first sign of trouble. Even before the trip in the titan, why weren’t there bells going off when Rush was showing everyone the kiddie gadgets he was using to run the sub? He was playing toy ship instead of properly handling a sub and it got himself and four others killed because of the negligence.
It's also a cautionary tale for people to ditch a progressive mindset when people's lives are on the line. Rush fired experienced Navy safety officers because they were "old white dudes" and weren't "inspiring" enough. Rush intentionally ignored legitimate safety concerns due to who was saying it and that negligence resulted in innocent people dying.
I can only imagine the mayhem that ensued inside that thing once it became clear they wouldn't resurface. People tend to get violent and go into full panic mode once that realisation sets in. Imagine 5 people cramped in a place just a bit bigger than a porta potty panicking and realising they were about to die. They were probably already preety injured before the implosion.
there was one video where the late CEO said that they "would hear noises LONG before there was a problem".....well, they likely were leaking water but at that depth that was a death sentence. When the sub imploded, the force was stronger (and faster) than if they had 30kg of TNT go off in front of their face. They all died so fast that the would never have seen or felt anything. I suppose that would be "better" than freezing to death in the depths or suffocating on the surface since the sub had to be opened from the outside and they had no way to exit themselves.
So lets go over what this says
The sub made it to 3400 meters before the entire hull was compromised
Crackling sounds, possibly the thruster shrouds being crushed?
Loss of power
Total loss of communications after releasing both ballast and frame
They absolutely knew they were dead, right there. If they lost power and sank to the bottom, the sub was never going to survive, and they never reached the surface again.
calling this incident as a cost of innovation is like calling pranksters that get hurt or do damage with their pranks brave
