Nice little submersible you've got there...

hey cortana what's that snappi-

>>214232839
he never said that
>>214232860
he said this

If he used a Hitbox would the crew still be alive today?

>>214232914
hitbox sucks, levers rule.

>>214232914
>cheatbox

>>214232977
evo players use button boxes and ps5 gamepads now. It's disgusting.

>>214232914
nah, he should have gone with madkatz. they might have found atlantis while they were down there but they went with logitech but something i always thought was funny was that james cameron dumped all his logitech stocks before the faggot crashed his submarine, kind of a coincidence methinks

was this the best xbox exclusive?

>>214233021
James Cameron was on the titanic on 9/11, then sells his LOGITECH stock the day before covid killed the entire crew of the SS Stockton?

This was as forced as unfunny as that Willy Wonka warehouse thing

what was that sound?

>>214233147
Is he wearing a beanie in case there's a sudden gust of wind inside the submarine? lol baldies

Do you think they actually heard the delamination in real time? What were those last 30 minutes on the sub like??

I bet you could write a great movie about it..... heh

>>214232811 (OP)
The funniest thing is that the submarine was designed with clear limits he ignored.

>>214233052
i heard he was riding shotgun when jfk got ganked too

>>214233247
Seasoning

>ceo is a psychopath
wow never knew that

Why are boomers so obsessed with this ship?

mushy

I envy him.
A quick death in under one second.

>>214232914
He would have died sooner. He needs an analog stick for the finer movements.

>>214232811 (OP)
you have to respect him for actually going on the trip with them
If he was just a scammer he would habe found an excuse not to go and let them all die while running away with the money but he actually believed that his crappy sub would work and wanted to prove to the entire world that undersea exploration is profitable and not that expensive

Reminder that he was sucking cock like a damn whore meer moments before the sub imploded

>>214232811 (OP)
is this the least hilarious meme in the history of the internet?

>>214232860
>James said calmly

>>214233839
The movie, not even joking. No one gave a shit before then, it was just a tragedy thst could have been avoided and people moved on

>WELL ACKSHULLY WE KNEW IT BLEW UP INSTANTLY BUT STILL LED THE MEDIA ON FOR A WEEK.....BECAUSE
wtf were they covering up?

>>214232811 (OP)
I honestly revere this man. Like how is it even possible to convince people to pay half a million dollars to sit in a little tube to "see" the titanic through a peep hole? They gladly paid all that money and they smelled each other poop and looked at the Titanic on a dell monitor. If he wasn't such a cheap asshole he would be the greatest salesman of all time.

>>214235709
it was all a distraction for something we've now memoryholed.

>>214235709
The navy didn't say they detected anything until they came out and said it imploded. The Coast guard picked up a knocking sound but both the CG and Navy said it was probably debris or ambient noise. The media led everyone to believe it was them banging on the wall based on some random statement.

>>214235784
Both orgs picked up the sound of the sub imploding just after they lost communications with it so they were lying niggers

>>214235725
what I would have done is make a model of the titanic in a big fishtank and a little tiny camera attached to a tiny drone controlled by the Xbox controller. No real windows on the sub, just a monitor made to look like a window showing the fishtank cam. dunk the sub in water just deep enough for it to feel as if they're going deep underwater. so long as the water in the tank is a bit cloudy they won't suspect a thing when you "open the window cover".

There you go, happy rich people, quite safe and costing a fraction of the money it should be so you can hide loads of money from the taxman too.

>>214232860
Jim did lose his friend Paul-Henri Nargeolet (RIP) in this accident though

>>214235709
Imploded, not exploded

They would have survived had he used a controller with a real mans joystick.

>>214235342
Dunno about that. It was sort of interesting for its time but hardly anyone talked about it a year later.

>>214232811 (OP)
Was it a closed-casket funeral or just a service with no body, no coffin, just a picture stand?

>>214232914
imagine him smackin the buttons hard like players do in tat little submarine giving everyone a headache before they die -- ya I think let's go w/ the hitbox

this is all even funnier when you find out how small of a window they had to look out of. Super murky water + super small window = basically zero visibility. You'd legitimately have a better experience in VR.

>>214235725
He was a solid salesman, but i think that CBS dweeb in Netflix documentary essentially explains what people were thinking/how they were sold on that shitbox " i was sure it was safe because he wanted free press, so he wouldn't put me in a dangerous sub" in the same way other people probably thought "it's safe because he's down there with us".

>>214233405
My favorite part is their whole acoustic system. Everyone made fun of him for it, he kept insisting it works. Well, it actually DID work and told him his sub is failing, so he turned it off LMAO

Let's be real, if you couldn't smell the bullshit coming off this guy, you deserved the death trip.

this incident taught me that apparently i'm one of the only people on the internet who is not an expert on deep sea submarines

>>214238610
IIRC there was a couple of times they straight up landed ON TOP of the wreck and still couldn't see shit, so they had to return. But yeah, i'll never understand why people just couldn't use ROV to see it, even in the sub you're still "not there", not like you're swimming around.

>Captain their shields are down. We can now tow their vessel back to the surface and save them from implosion.

>>214232839
why are rich weirdos so obsessed with the deep ocean

>>214238811
Because if you were poor you couldn't explore the deep ocean

Did Jim actually hate Stockton?

>>214233014
>ps5 gamepad
/v/ gamesir marketers told me the dualsense dpad was shit

>>214238724
To be fair, i think it was one of those situations where everyone in the company has gotten so used to the bullshit, they couldn't see how fucking crazy it looks from the outside.

For example, they left the sub out in the open in doc's parking lot for the whole Canadian winter. Ask an average person if they'd do that to their car.

>>214238810
>pictured Primarch Davidius Cameronius, 924.M41

>>214238874
The whole community hated Stockton, but i doubt they were THAT worried about lives of passangers, i think they just didn't want to be forever associated with his actions. It's just straight up bad business for them.

>>214238844
I wouldnt want to regardless

>>214238811
it's like space but slighty cheaper to explore

>>214232811 (OP)
This and that debate about toasters basically killed libertarianism as an ideology.

>>214232977
>a controller that works is cheating

>>214239641
what happened with toasters now?

>>214239768
It was that debate a decade ago where libertarian candidates argued driver's licenses shouldn't exist and compared it to a toaster license, meanwhile the former Republican in the room was booed for saying they were wrong

can someone post the pic of his ghost sitting on the bow of the sunken titanic please

It was a super-luxurious boat seen as the pinnnacle of engineering at the time. It went down on its maiden voyage with a lot of famous people on board including many of its architects who boasted how safe and unsinkable it was.

Picture Elon sending up a rocket with a dozen celebrities plus himself in it bragging that it can't explode, then it explodes.

>>214232811 (OP)
If I was on that submersible it wouldn't of gone down like it did. There would have been a lot of banging in that cabin and then me saying OK, we're going to hold our breath, dont worry.

>>214235342
>The movie, not even joking.

The titanic came back into pop culture when the wreck was discovered in 1985. It was a huge story and there was even a live TV special in 1987 hosted by Telly Savales where they took artifacts from the wreck and displayed them. Before that the titanic had just disappeared into the void like MH370. The reason they made the movie was because everybody knew about the titanic again because the wreck was found.

>>214232914
is this the controller the Melee player killed himself over because they wouldn't let him use it in their competitions, even though literally everyone there were destined to also have their hands destroyed by taking a kid's game too seriously

young people dont know people did not talk much about the titanic between 1912 and 1985. There was a good movie made in 1958 with Roddy McDowell and the guy from man from UNCLE much better than the James Cameron chick flick.

>>214233619
I know you are just shitposting but James Cameron really was on the Titanic on 9/11.

it's a faustian thing. rich boomer libtards are the most faustian people on the planet. rightoids hate and deny this but it is truth.

>>214243105
The one young kid not wanting to go, but he went because his dad wanted someone to go with him, that shit bothered me man. Iirc his mom was supposed to go and he swapped with her so she wouldn't have to.

>>214233839
Its sinking only killed 30 out of 1000+ passengers on board, completely rookie numbers compared to the sinking of the Titanic

>>214238811
Last place to explore that doesn't require 100 years of scientific development (space)

>>214232914
Now I’m imagining OceanGate being controlled by a DDR dance mat with Stockton busting sick moves to pilot them to safety.

>>214232882
He did, but he was tricked into saying it by a racist prosecutor.

The Titan sub was sabotaged. They didn't want literally whos to be exploring in the deep sea for pennies on the dollar.

>>214246952
It was so fragile it got destroyed by the teenager telling a knock knock joke onboard

Friendly reminder they were murdered to make a documentary about it

>>214238439
realistically, would they have heard anything beforehand? or just instadeath

>>214242401
Elon has said several times he would never actually go into space himself, much less on his own rockets IIRC

>>214247389
His engineers spent years begging him to let them actually make something safe that wouldn't implode but he overrode them all and said "no, it will be fine." There were years of warnings.

actual retard. this ship has been obsessed over for so much longer than the movie has been around. it was the defining event of 1912 it was global news at the time its just one of those things that became a massive iconic event in history. "the movie" you're talking about is like the 5th titanic movie to be made. people have always been obsessed with the titanic.

What did he mean by this?

They didn't want Stockton Rush to discover the truth.

There's no way this wasn't him committing suicide in a fanciful way for attention, right?

how do submarines make themselves go more upper if they already made themselves go down?
