What the fuck was his problem?

>In the film, former OceanGate bookkeeper Bonnie Carl says that Rush “wanted to be a Jeff Bezos or an Elon Musk. … He referred to those guys as big swinging dicks, and he loved that term.”

Out of his depth.

>>211695744 (OP)
he just loved the sound of that carbon fiber popping. became addicted to it, chased it.

>>211696003
Fucking based

>>211695744 (OP)
He was just sick of drenk, feck, arse and gerls.

he had a very specific fetish

Nobody told him bluetooth doesn't work under water.

I don't think bezos or musk would go to space on an unapproved rocket

he didn't season his hull

Didn't Elon Musk get penis surgery to add an additional inch on?

>>211696546
Yeah and it went wrong and now he has a mangled, unusable dick.

>>211695744 (OP)
he had to get it on

His quote about replacing old white men makes so much more sense with the context that old white men had been telling him he was retaded at every step of the way

>>211696062

He was under a lot of pressure.

can't wait for the mobile game of trying to repair a sub while the pressure is building up compressing the occupants

no but he famously has a huge cock

LOGITECH CONTROLLER HE USED A LOGITECH CONTROLLER FOR THE SUB

>>211695744 (OP)
He had to get it on.

>>211700307
In the early tests he was using a Dualshock 4. Wonder if he changed it because Sony didnt want to be associated with his deathtrap. DS4 also will get drift too but I cant imagine dualshocks being immune to that

>>211695744 (OP)

Not usually into daddies but he was pretty hot for his age

>>211700418
Imagine if you crashed a sub because of controller drift

>Could not even get a 1/3 scale test model Titan to get to Titanc depth pressure without imploding, builds full size sub anyway and takes it down
The amount of bullshit this guy put on passengers, even the "Titanic expert" guy, is unbelievable, they were all so oblivious to how close to death they all were it is stunning.

>>211700307
That's the least of the problems with the sub though

>>211695744 (OP)
P = ρ g h

>>211700672

He did like 80 dives with it, some all the way down to Titanic depth.

The problem is that he essentially made a dispoable submarine but kept reusing it. It's like using the same condom over and over again, eventually it'll break no matter how well you maintain it.

There's nothing wrong with using carbon fiber for the sub. It has a compressive strength comparable to steel. Where he fucked up was using different material for the hemispheres. If he had made the entire sub of carbon fiber properly (which is extremely difficult and expensive to do) he would have had no problem.

>>211695744 (OP)
his problem was being a cheap fuck.

I’m convinced all billionaire-entrepreneurs are psychotic. Only explanation for why they keep going, and do the things they do. In the Middle Ages they would be conquered, adventurers, explores; today they are Businessmen.

>>211701346
just cause carbon fiber might work a few times doesn't mean you're going to convince people that its a reliable method with the potential to be like the titan

>>211695744 (OP)
He was republican

>>211702536
But he wanted to democratize sub tourism.

>>211695744 (OP)
Racism against white men, unironically.

>I want poor people who can barely afford rent and is juggling three jobs to be able to go see the titanic for a potentially modest price
Glad this idiot died before he went broke with his retarded ideas

I would have survived somehow

>>211702912
On god if I'm down there that sub is not exploding I simply ain't built the same fr

>>211702855
He charged $250k. Nobody actually hurting for cash will spend that much to go stare at a pile of junk through a keyhole for half an hour.

You'd think lolberts would come up with some cope, but no, they straight up just defend the guy who killed himself to save money.

He was an agent of Satan.

they shouldve worn armor to handle to sub imploding

>>211695744 (OP)
>What the fuck was his problem?
he cheapened out on getting a good controller.

>>211703273

What they should've done is had a couple of scuba suits in a compartment and a small valve to gradually allow the water in to equalize the pressure.
Then just swim out and to the surface.

>>211696062
In over his head

>>211703369
>dude just swim 4000 meters to the surface

>>211703446

you don't have to swim you'll just float up naturally, idiot

The real explanation was that he was the very definition of a privileged nepo baby. He was heir to literally perhaps the oldest fortune in the US (his great grandpappy or something signed the Declaration of Independence) these guys have egos the size of Jupiter and believe almost religiously that they are entitled to a 99.9th percentile status job as an adult.

The problem is is that outside of perfunctory modern gentry class jobs like hedge fund board member, non-profit exec and the NGO grift, there is an element of meritocracy to high status jobs. He decided his best way to guarantee being at the top despite being 120 IQ at best was to be a "trailblazer" in an industry with a huge entry cost (how many smart first generation immigrants are going to have the capital or connections to start a submarine company from the ground up?). He knew he could be the Elon Musk of submarines by default because there were like maybe 12 other submarine companies in the world and all of them actually care about safety and science.

Even still, the moment one of his engineers expressed the slightest criticism he fired them and threatened to destroy their life with daddy's money. He couldn't even accept that he was fated to win from the start, he had to win every micro-argument on the way, even if they were about saving his own life.

Meanwhile Gaben's submarine company is literally discovering new lifeforms

>>211704322
Do you think someone might've sabotaged his work because of bad blood?
Ultimately all it takes is one screw to be loose and the whole thing goes pop

so if people implode into mist when exposed to the crushing depths of the ocean, why don't rocks and fish do the same

>>211704771

They're made out of cameronium

Let's say the sub is mostly the same but not near imminent implosion, does contact with any objects at that depth pose a greater risk to the sub than at less depth. E.g. Hitting into the titanic.

>>211704771
Don't ask question

>>211704771
It's the change in pressure, if we fell to that depth we would be flattened out.

For non-subhumans (white people), swimming comes naturally, so no. On top of that swimming is part of elementary school physical education.

>>211701346
>It has a compressive strength comparable to steel.
Yeah, until it doesn't and *POP*. Steel and titanium are superior because they are a known quality. We know scientifically how many cycles of compression at various depths the material can take until its unsafe. Wrapping a tube in epoxy and carbon fiber with thousands of random micro voids in between layers the way they did isn't something that can be reliably tested to any type of certainty in the results.

And thats not even mentioning the fact the idiot put hard points for craning it out of the water in areas that were not designed to take that kind of lifting load safely and leaving it outdoors unprotected in fucking Canada over winter...

>>211701346
It wasn't the hemispheres constantly popping and cracking. The carbon fiber was breaking apart from the first dive.
