    Some people try to bring up crew members but apparently theres literally one single guy there piloting the sub and the rest are paying customers.

    And Idk, yeah its difficult to quit a job over security concerns and all that but I feel like when the security concerns are less permanent injury or burn damage, and more "dying at the bottom of the sea because of obvious incompetent sub design and construction" you just have to put your own security first and find a less dangerous job.

      The “pilot” is the CEO. Everyone on board is a rich asshole

        Lmaoooooo thats even funnier then.

        Edit: I swear every time someone tries to add a new guilt tripping detail it turns out to be just funny. "Oh theres a literal teenager on board, how about that Mr Heartless?" and then it turns out the teenager is fucking 19 years old and there with his dad, whos a literal personal friend of the Bri'ish king.

            Apparently it’s a combination of the last names of two of his muh ancestors who signed the declaration of independence

          tbf being the son of an evil billionaire doesn't make you an evil billionaire, he definitely doesn't deserve to die, maybe reeducated, but i couldn't give less shits about the other passengers

        Everything I learn about this story makes it funnier and also more terrifying that it was ever possible
