Someone asked him about safety and he said he’s putting his money where his mouth is by going on these trips

That’s what I’m thinking.
They prolly lost communication, duke said “don’t trip I got this”
Got them down to the wreck, “hoorayyyy”
In one video he said they let others use the Logitech controller too.
So either him or someone got them stuck down there.. again im hoping a new submersible can be sent down to knock ‘em loose.

i have been hooked on story since sunday and no video is going to explain why people with all the means in the world are traveling miles under water in a can of soup with no technology. Or why billionaires are putting themselves in this literal cheap thrill position

Can't have dudes like him in the heavy industrial industry

Again, EYE don't feel sorry for him being in this situation because he worked himself into this shoot. The others four individuals should/could have done more due diligience but to the point

was making, Rush could EASILY point to his previous safe missions as evidence that his "**** safety" and break the rules stance was on point. He unfortunately has a solid enough background that he could prop himself up as someone trustworthy and believable.EDIT:
Because he has successfully done the misison before and told them that it was fine. SRS

Idk how anyone doesn’t freak out in tight space like that. My brother rolled me up in a carpet one time when we were kids and the feeling of panic was unreal. Just the thought of what they’re going through is sickening

I’ll wager they probably got stuck on something. How extensive were tests done for that very scenario? Or were the measures for it to float back up supposed to take care of that?

The dudes who signed up to be on that sub are absolutely victims.
But, for $250,000 to be apart of the expedition wouldn't you do more research or hire an investigator/expert to make sure everything is on the up-and-up? You couldn't pay me to be in that home depot constructed submarine.

If you ignore a warning letter signed by 30 industry professionals about the safety concerns surrounding your equipment and do everything in your power to skirt regulations designed to keep the end user safe, you deserve what's coming to you (death or lawsuits).

Famb. You are being EXTREMELY generous assuming that any exhaustive testing was done

To be clear - are you talking about just Stockton Rush or Stockton Rush and the passengers? I think it’s the former but I would just like to clarify.
In a perfect world, yes but his previous missions are similar to falsified returns of other folks who invested in a fictitious fund that the leader of a Ponzi scheme would use to legitimize himself. He’s a con man and had everythin set up nicely to run this grift from his background, success in other ventures and the previous trips.
