      The last thing I can imagine the victims of Titanic would want is for more lives to be lost at the sake of glimpsing at a rusty wreck. The history of the 1912 event was wrought with its own blunders, oversight and hubris - and that led to more rigorous maritime engineering standards for a reason. You can still get out of bed and live a life of reasonable risk mitigation, despite what Mr. Rush has to say

    What he experienced to cause his emergency was currents at the bottom near the ship - this OceanGate tourist sub was only an hour and a half into the journey when it lost coms. Suggests to me that even if a current hit them it wouldn't cause a collision into anything seemingly. I think we will learn it was a catastrophic failure bound to happen due to insufficient design/materials/testing. In other words directly due to Oceangate negligence.

      There is a chance that they are on the surface. The sub had 7 mechanisms to take it to the surface. Even if they lost electricity they can still make it to the surface. If they are not there I would a assume there was a breach and they already parished. I think it’s very unlikely for them to be at the ocean floor alive right now.
