Being instantly crushed to death by water pressure after paying $250k and signing a waiver to load myself into a makeshift submarine built well below safety standards is not exactly the most nightmarish death I can imagine.
There’s a chance they are still freezing to death down there, getting really sleepy by now
Fair enough. Either way, I can find worse ways to die with a five minute tour of wikipedia; no imagination necessary.
The news has been reporting banging sounds being heard every 30 minutes or so. So it sounds like they’re still alive and stuck down there, in a dark, cramped metal can, victims of their own hubris, unable to move, too deep for rescue, contemplating their impending deaths from asphyxiation when their air runs out less than 24 hours from now.
I’d almost feel bad for them if they hadn’t brought this on entirely on their own lmao.
I don’t buy the noises thing. If you’re gonna make banging noises you’d do it in a pattern or tune that is very obviously human. Shit makes a lot of banging under the sea, rocks, things crashing into the side of the titanic from current. Without a noise having a pattern like SOS in morse code or a the typical jaunty door knock tune I call bullshit on these sounds being human.
what material comfort does to a motherfucker
The rich also have the power to have the media depict them as main characters suffering an unfortunate death. The workers that die every day under their hubris don’t get that and instead are viewed as a nameless number.
Agreed. If you’re laughing at their deaths rather than causing them you need to do some serious introspection and self-crit
It is kind of funny but also kind of horrifying just how thoroughly these people owned thermselves and set themselves up for one of the most horrifically claustrophobic and depressing deaths imaginable, just no innate sense of self-preservation to even whisper “no”…like just on a human level it makes me worry how badly I might one day own myself
