[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The more I hear about this submersible the more it seems very clear to me that Stockton Rush [b]was either a conman or a madman[/b], and he very obviously misled his passengers as to the safety of the design and fabrication of the Titan - liability waiver be damned. He told one potential passenger who ultimately decided not to go that it was ‘as safe as crossing the street.’ The irony of this event is nearly as crushing as the psi endured by that submersible, and it pains to see how little man progresses.[/quote] The fact he was on the submersible makes me think the latter. If he were truly a con man, I don’t think he would have gotten on a real deep dive himself. Also, it’s not a very good con if you know there is a high likelihood of eventually blowing up your customer base. I think he really just overestimated his own intelligence and wanted to build a reputation as somewhat of a maverick. [/quote]
