    the guy was an experienced diver who went down to the james cameron ship 37 times and still went inside that death trap

      From the article, it seems like he was unaware of how shit the submersible actually was.

        Literally anyone looking at the submarine could know how shit it was

        Like the thing straight up looked incredibly janky. Thin walls and an interior that consisted of a gym mat and a plastic Logitech controller that I could hear the plastic creaking on just through photos of it

        It didn't take an engineer to look at it and conclude it was fucked

        It's gotta be easy to prove in court that the guy was experienced enough to know better. But I might be wrong.
