>his dream is to explore the deep

>fires the cucksoyboys who told him he was wrong
>visits titanic 80 times
>dies in his own invention and takes 4 people with him
>no fucks given
all the mainstream media hit pieces on him is proof he was a mad scientist that they don’t want to see more of. they don’t want him to have the respect he deserves

>>512491421 (OP)
What was he really motivated by though. Cash or ocean exploration. He was reckless and a danger to humanity

>>512491421 (OP)
He was a complete retarded.
At least he took a few jeets scammers with him.
I guess everything balance itself out in the end.

I wonder if somebody sabotaged the sub. The people on the sub were fairly high value targets.

>>512491546

>scientist

What hypothesis was he testing? The fastest way to kill people?

>>512491421 (OP)
imma just leave this here for your consideration.

>>512491568
Nah. There were warning signs the subs hull integrity had already been compromised. He was just retarded and arrogant.

>>512491568
No. The guy was a pompous fucktard. Literally anyone would tell you taking an angle grinder to a carbon composite pressure vessel is retarded.

>>512491568
it definitely would have imploded on its own after a certain amount of dives. The shape was wrong for pressures at that depth and carbon fiber is good for airplanes to resist against conditions where the outside pressure is lower than the inside, but for a submarine of similar cylindrical shape when the outside pressure is massive due to the sea, carbon fibre will experience a stress that makes it unstable.
Just listening to the acoustics of your fibre popping as an indicator for possible danger was a retarded idea at such depth.

>>512492298
that was just the hull seasoning. also in all the news pieces and documentaries they added in their own tapping sounds in post production. they weren’t audible on the cameras

>>512491421 (OP)
I think people are missing the point. The sub worked. It went down to 4000 metres 13 times before it went kablooey. This technology could definitely be made to work with better manufacturing standards and it would revolutionize submarines and just because Stockton Rush was a deeply dishonest slipshod engineer doesnt mean the principle of carbon fiber submersibles should be abandoned.

I don't think CF is inherently bad here, if properly manufactured. The problem I understand, it's almost impossible to properly manufacture a 5 inch thick tube of CF. They had to do it in 5 layers, and subject it to an autoclave 5 times. They should have done it in one layer.

Also, Boeing recommended 45 degree plies which Stockton ignored. Also 7+ inch thick.

Also, it's very difficult to monitor a composite like one can do with steel.

Who cares what flavor of mutt are we talking about, they are still mutts at the end of the day.
They also look jeet asf.
Then again, it reach a point on the mixing devolution that it all blends in, in the day.

>>512492504
If it had proper maintenance, perhaps the catastrophic failure would not have occured. In the end he did not, there was an extremely callous disregard for quality control.

no animation is ever going to actually show us what happened

at least this gave animators some joy

This, if it was properly reinforced and tested, that is fine, Rush refused to acknowledge there was a problem with his hull despite engineers clearly pointing out that it can't withstand higher amounts of pressure.

>>512491421 (OP)
You said it though, he dived a lot of times and didn’t pay enough respect to the stress on the boat. That’s not “mad scientist” it’s dumb scientist. He killed a bunch of other people including his own son.

Such is the case of rich people

>>512498467
My understanding was, it could handle that pressure. But the longevity of it was an aspect he refused to address and hid behind his monitoring system. If I recall, there were concerns over the integrity of that vessel from another trip, and he still went down in it

>>512491512
both in order to make more stupid "inventions" to explore he needed jeet $$$

>>512498720
>my understanding was
You understanding SHOULD have been that it immediately showed signs of impending failure, and was then used past the point of ample warning.

>>512499023
there was no way to predict this with the data they had. a french submarine expert signed off on everything

>>512499237
>there was no way to predict this
Multiple people warned this would happen.

>>512499237
>It just wasn't POSSIBLE to predict catastrophic failure after the loud bang happened!
Some of us know what a failure mode is. Basic materials science. The kind you could pick up within 10 minutes.
Carbon composite? Brittle fracture.

>>512499552
lying documentary and news media companies added in the sound

>>512492076
Yeah, agreed. He was completely reckless, and likely deeply depressed. He tried to go deep without big-money sponsors. It was doomed from the get-go. I hate these guys that cut corners everywhere. Far more interesting is the work of Triton subs and their Triton 36000/2. It's a testament to human progress, and a lesson in just how difficult it is to safely go to the deepest parts of the ocean.

>>512491421 (OP)
I actually applaud him, their should be more copycat billionaires taking other billionaires in a rust bucket to the bottom of the ocean

>>512491568
It was James Cameron, he didn't want other people going to the Titanic so he fired his torpedos

>>512491421 (OP)
There are people that have an actual death wish. You know the type …skydivers , base jumpers , wing suit faggots.
Every time he went down he thought “ is this the time ?”
And “ imagine how stupid these idiots are to pay me to kill them “ .
He knew exactly how dangerous it was.

> French submarine expert
Is there a French expert in anything besides surrender ?
