Anybody can do it with a good sub

I went drove across the US in my car once. Does this make me a car designer?

OK.

>In 2023, during the expedition of the submersible 'Titan', James Cameron (whose role involved playing himself as a deepsea expert) was surfing with co-stars when the vessel was dragged under the waves and began to struggle to return to the surface.

>As OceanGate employees rushed to help, Cameron held out an arm in front of them, stopping them and was reported saying by Wendy Rush (who was monitoring a video feed on the nearby support vessel) "The waves have claimed him, let him fight for his own life". The crew, dumbfounded, proceeded to watch the Titan until the submersible imploded beneath the waves.

>We later spotted him outside the Stockton Rush's house, making imploding gestures and thanking the family for their child's sacrifice to the great ocean.

>>212485912 (OP)
You remember that one documentary series where a famous nigger actor was the host? He acted all smart and know it all. Like dude you're just a dumb actor reading shit someone wrote for you.
That's basically Cameron when it comes to submersibles. Kek

Yes

The Carbon fiber hull did work though, it made 13 successful trips to the titanic. All they had to do was build a new hull for every season and only use it five times or so.

Imagine a billionaire dressing like that

i don't have to imagine it's literally right there in front of my eyes

I know we all hate the other dead billionaire guy but if you really think about it, wasn’t his boat thing more impressive?
He did successfully go down there numerous times keep in mind.

ftfy

>>212486076
No.
But you'd have the right to laugh at car designer who designed a car that killed him after travelling a much shorter distance

Ok back to your country got a new royal family protocols

Alright Lysander Spooner, not trying to ruffle any feathers. Just making a point about people deserving of mockery.

>He cut me off, the prick. I chased after him but he ended up plonking himself on an old sea mine. Should've learned the give way rules. I'm glad he's dead

A little harsh but Jim makes a good point about being courteous

>>212487768
Again that's not true it went to its intended depth several times. Which proves that the design worked in principle. The main problem with the design is negligence when it comes to post-diving inspection and maintenance. Was the material choice not ideal? Yes, Definitely, but worked non the less. Which shows that they put some thought into it. They failed miserably at understanding that the service life of the sub was limited due to the nature of the material.
Trying to come up with new ways to solve an existing problem is what drives innovation. What's tragic is that they killed people who were not involved in the project. A (car) designer who gets killed by his own creation is no laughing matter. A car engineer that kills others while testing his creation is what's a tragedy. And that's where they were at. At the testing stage of the design.

This. Meanwhile Cameron was gallivanting underwater in a Russian submarine he probably paid Putin to use and he has the stones to say that Stockton Rush was a bad guy? What a hypocrite.

if its good enough for a sports car then why not a submersible?

>>212486065
mate, there's a queue to the everest. Literal kids are climbing it. Cameron is a real expert

this is the same argument people used for why airplanes would never work btw

I drove my car to the store 13 times, the 14th time it killed my family. It was a success

>>212488746
You buy experimental cars? Where did you get that from? Are you a thief?

>>212488772
Also submarines and submersibles had already been invented, he just made an incredibly shitty one.

>>212488267
>>212487405
>>212486625
Holy pseuds. The hull breaking on its 14th trip is not impressive, it's a total failure that killed people. It's lucky it worked a few times but it was always destined for failure. No one is looking at this as a success, no one is copying the design, no one is saying "carbon fiber submersibles are the future".

>>212488772
The analogy would work better if someone tried to make a plane out of balsa wood and fly it through hurricanes.

Crashes. Kills hundreds of people.

You're retarded if you think this applies here

Go google up how a real deep sea sub looks and compare it to this grade school class project powered by a amazon controller

>>212488860
Yes. That's why I said it was an experimental sub that proved that in principle it is working. In no way should it be used to transport people except its inventor. Also since the weaknesses of the material were know and people warned them they should have put more emphasis on preventive maintenance and inspections to find the limits. Then replace the hull.

>>212488674
Fucking retard, deep sea submersibles already existed by the time oceangate was glcreated.

>>212489201
>>212488939
Airplanes already existed you fucking retard.

>>212488672
airplanes worked on a small scale so people just build bigger ones.
This sub failed on every small scale test so they build a bigger one which ultimately also failed.

>>212485997
>man who designed and subsequently piloted his own deep sea exploration sub and lived to tell the tale explains how you go about designing deep sea subs that don't kill you

>>212489342
It worked on small scale too. They just didn't test it extensively enough, which should be the highest priority in any machine intended to transport humans. Stockton was an ignorant dreamer that's not the point, but having a rich boomer talk about shit he just heard somewhere trying to imply he's James Cousteau is just a joke.

>>212489451
>Gambler who got lucky and made millions on scratcher tickets explains to you how to get rich dumping your life savings gambling at a gas station
Face it, you only fail once with submersibles. Stockton gets unlucky one time and now he's a joke, while Cameron who's on a lucky streak gets to talk about himself like he's a genius.

>>212489051
>inspection of the hull and it's limits
You have no idea what the fuck you are talking about. Inspecting the hull wouldn't have prevented it because the failure of the hull wasn't predictable because carbon fiber isn't built for compression. I can take a carbon fiber strand and pull my car with it reliably, it has good tensile strength. I couldn't push a cup of coffee around with the same strand because it is not a reliable material for compounding pressure. Literally the sub was built on the idea of pushing rope.

>>212489247
Before the Wright brothers lol

>>212488930
I'm convinced anons on /tv/ would defend that

>>212489541
Cameron's been on a "lucky streak" for 40 years. At what point do you stop attributing it to luck and start attributing it to genius

>>212489604
Yes inspection would have helped. You can see delamination multilayer fiber composites just fine with ultrasonic inspection. Even thermography could be used. It's a gradual process that is triggered by cycling shear stress in the polymer layers between the fibers. Hence it worked several times. You can define a limit after carefully gathering data from multiple hulls. Normal engineering practice. Eventually he would have had to acknowledge that his concept is not economically viable without killing someone.
