      Oh! Yes, thank you for this opportunity, to me this is an extra-ordinary thing for one to do! Derrick at that young age as you were, I wonder the love you had for your profession reaching to that extent! What could be that profession that made you make that trip underwater?
      If this Titan had not exploded, would you recommend one to do the same? Thanks Derrick

      Just imagine the periodic cracking noises, echoing in the darkness down there... For a time they intensify, barely, but still enough to make your heart drop not knowing, if with the next noise two miles of ocean won't come down on your head.. dog tags..All that's left from your deep ocean tin can, are mere dog tags in the bottom of the abyss.

      I literally saw the Aunt speak about it in a video yesterday. That doesn’t mean she wasn’t lying. We can only hear her side (and other family members’ sides) of what she claims her nephew said. But she definitely said it, and it’s on video here on UA-cam. Just look it up.
      I believe it because I, like many children of parents who want what they want, want or feel obligated to please or appease our parents, and feel guilted or even pushed into doing things we don’t want to do. Like we feel we owe our parents this or that because they’ve given us this or that, even if we really don’t want to do something for whatever the reason. And I didn’t even come from a wealthy family. But he was in university and his father, one of the wealthiest men in Pakistan was surely paying for it, and I can definitely understand how he might feel or be made to feel ungrateful if he refused to go, or feel at fault for disappointing his father if he said no. Saying no might even cause a strain in their relationship (depending on what their relationship was really like).

    So sad. The 19-year-old was terrified but did it for his dad. I expected the same. Pressures at that depth are extreme and unforgiving. They probably didn't even know what happened it was so fast. At least they did not suffer in pain until the end. Think of it as an explosion in reverse. Titanic is a graveyard so no one should ever go back down there in my opinion. Send down ROVs. I'm an Air Force Veteran mainly because I have been known to have severe claustrophobia, I would be terrified in a sub. I have a lot of respect for the Silent Service.
