[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“Safety is pure waste,” said submersible CEO now trapped in unrescuable submersible: https://bestlifeonline.com/missing-titanic-submarine-ceo-safety-is-waste-news/[/quote] The guy knew there was no rescue if the vessel failed at depth. He can't say that, of course, since that would spook the paying customers. His whole attitude is "Why bother?" because he knew that any failure meant death. It's why they didn't even bother putting an external anchor device on the vessel - they couldn't get towed out from 12,000 feet. There is no rescue or recovery of a 22,000 pound vessel at those depths and pressures. It's not feasible. Basically, he was prepared to die every time he went down. It's a binary outcome - you get back to the surface on your own or death. That's the jist of it. [/quote]
