Posted this in a thread awhile ago, but my gramps served in the navy in WW2 and apparently if you showed any nervous tics whatsoever, even biting your fingernails, they wouldn't let you anywhere near a submarine. It takes a certain kind of personality type to be able to get in a sub and be there for a sustained amount of time and about 99.9% of people shouldn't be doing so because they can't handle the stress and they will almost certainly lose their shit once they realize they're way the fuck under hundreds of feet of dark water and that there's no escape.
You don't just go from being a wealthy NEET Pakistani kid playing vidya all day to becoming a seasoned submariner overnight. If you stick the average person in a tin can hundreds of feet below sea level with no training they WILL freak out. Think about your mom or your girlfriend or your youngest sibling in that same situation and honestly ask yourself how they would react, because that's basically what the Paki dad put that kid through.
Here's what probably went down
>They get to a serious depth
>Hull starts creaking
>Kid freaks out
>Paki dad and other billionaire don't want to waste their money because of some kid being a little bitch
>Argument ensues
>Paki kid freaks out and lunges for the controller
>Everyone starts wrestling
>Sub starts tilting the wrong way due to everyone fighting over the controls
>Pilot is desparately trying to yank away the logitech from Paki kid
>Ballast gets deployed due to button mashing
>Kid hits the wrong button
>*poot*
100% chance they were at each other's throats down there for at least a few seconds before shit really hit the fan and they all abruptly got smushed

>Submarine ended up pointing straight downward and the ballast got activated
My grandpa fought in WW2 in the navy and apparently if you so much as chewed your fingernails they would deem you mentally unfit for submarine duty. Even back then they knew they couldn't have you freaking the fuck out down there when you realize you're trapped in a tin can hundreds of feet below the sea with no way out.
You just know that one of the tourists who wasn't used to submarines lost his shit, there was a fight over the controller, and it got busted in the ensuing scuffle which caused their demise. There's a reason the navy puts you through rigorous physical and mental training to be a submariner and they don't just hire pudgy middle-aged guys off the street.
