Built with shit from Home Depot, controlled with a literal Logitech game controller, construction pipes as ballast... holy fuck, why would anybody agree to go 3.7km below the surface of the ocean in that deathtrap?
Imagine paying $250k and the pilot pulls out the player 2 controller
Those Logitech controllers are actually pretty decent. I've had one for ages and it's still going strong.
And it's easily replaceable in case of failure. Of all the design shortcuts this one isn't bad.
lmao for real. Couldn't even fork out for a first party controller.
Jesus, is that really what they're using? 😳
Hope the pilot tried ⬆️ ⬆️ ⬇️⬇️⬅️➡️⬅️➡️🅱️🅰️ start
Made out of a fiberglass tube (catastrophic failure) and titanium end caps (cracks) instead of steel.
“Steel is real.”
Titanium cracks under pressure, I take it?
Or is the join between the cap and the fiberglass body potentially more of a problem?
Everything cracks under pressure, I'm not exactly sure what the above commenter is getting at. If the sub was steel the walls would be thinner. With titanium the walls would be thicker. Without knowing the dimensions of the material we can't know whether it was built to high enough standards.
I mean, anything will crack under pressure. The biggest issue I see is uneven compression of the two materials coupled with different fatigue behaviors. I'd feel a lot safer if the whole submarine was titanium, honestly. Barring that, a couple inches of solid steel would be just as comforting.
I would be worried about both. Joining two very different materials that need to deal with crazy pressures seems like a really bad idea.

Add temperature changes as you dive.
Good point!
Wow, that is super sketchy. Now I am not at all surprised this happened. Hope that company has a shit ton of insurance.
There was a conspiracy that the original titanic going down was an insurance scam.
There's also a conspiracy that my farts smell like rancid carrots because the government puts carrots up my butt while I'm sleeping
Why aren't more people talking about big carrot? Wake up sheeple
Absolutely ridiculous. It's huge international mega-corporations doing that.
An easily disproved one too, as the sister ships weren’t actually identical. Also the recent scan on the ship revealed the hull number 401 on one of the propellers putting another nail in the coffin of the idea the ship is actually the Olympic.
Oh i hate that stupid theory. That's like top tier "looking for a conspiracy because we've got nothing better to do"
They're playing a really long game if so. Submarines like this weren't even conceived of yet when the Titanic went down, it'd take tremendous foresight to have set this up.
It's not a great theory. I'm pretty sure it would have made more money transporting passengers hundreds of times over
CBS dude rode on it and did an interview with the owner.
So many red flags.
