Well can you summarize? I tried googling, but couldn't find anything.

No

What about an orca? I'm not saying this would work, but we won't know for sure unless we try.

Ha! They are two miles deep, and the submersible has 17 outer locks in place.

They don't need to open the sub. You just take two orcas and tie a fishing net between them (maybe 50-75 feet max). The orcas then dive down, locate the sub, and scoop the ocean explorers up in the net. Then they go back to the surface and the coast guard can figure out how to get through the 17 or whatever locks.

Again, I'm not saying this will work, but it's much more worthwhile than flying a bunch of airplanes around for days.

orcas don't dive down several miles.

Nor do gameboy remote controllers work with orcas.

Go deep for money. That seems to be all about for certain people.

Wow, haven’t seen someone get screwed this badly by a sub since Jared.

Not sure if this was posted, I'm not going to read all 45+ pages.
Here is the story of a 1973 rescue, but it wasn't nearly as deep.

They could also consider some sort of pully with magnets, perhaps using a nearby fishing ship in the area.

It's 13000 ft into the darkest depths. No dolphin or fishing boat can navigate this. Even military submarines.

You're envisioning a fun little snorkling trip . This isn't it.

And also, dolphins are mammals.

Orcas are mammals too. I don't think sharks are tho.

You don’t think sharks are mammals? Are you 3?

Sharks are fish, even though some people believe they are mammals due to how big some of them can get and because some give birth to live young. Fish are aquatic animals that were among the first vertebrates (animals with a backbone) to evolve on earth. They are divided into two broad groups:

Teleosts (tel-ee-ost) – they have a bony skeleton and symmetrical tail.
Elasmobranchs (el-as-mo-branch-es) – they have a skeleton made of cartilage and include sharks, rays and skates.
So, while all sharks are fish, not all fish are sharks!

Are you a child? Seriously? Summer vacation started?

Did the submarine captain have a Six Sigma certification?

Me, neither. And people have been doing it for a long time. James Cameron has made dozens of trips.

someone from the medical field commented that you could live longer than that without water (as I recall). I'm not sure what they had onboard. I assume some water?

You made a fool of yourself. Don’t dig in deeper.

I’ve read estimates that on the night it sank, they think it took about 30 mins between the time Titanic’s stern disappeared from view and when it hit the ocean floor. Which is still in incredibly long for a free fall and emphasizes the depth, but not 2 hours. I know they don’t just drop by gravity, but why so long?

Yeah I thought that sounded super long too. Unless that time includes “driving” along the floor to the wreckage site?

I think I read the whole mission would've been 8-10 hrs. So the 2 1/2 was for the descent (and ascent).

It's likely that the vehicle is slightly negatively bouyant until it drops the ballast after the trip is over.

So to clarify we are toddlers if we think sharks are mammals but also we are 3 if we think they aren’t . This is pay $250k to ride a faulty sub to the Titanic logic
