I'm shocked how brazen dude came off. And in the end, not just with his OWN life, which is unfortunate.
I wish I could see what happens to a cadaver at 5000-6000 psi. I just can't imagine the instant (30 ms) destruction of a body like that. It seems there would be instant crushing, but exploding at the same time. Is there any trace of the body left or is it just instantly gone? Wow man, crazy shit. 
It's hard to replicate that shit. If you had say a side of beef, it would react differently than a live cow.I wish I could see what happens to a cadaver at 5000-6000 psi.

I've been watching these videos, and you can see different shit implodes different based on shape, materials etc. All I know, is that shit probably groaned like Lexx in a cac bitch before it gave up the ghost.

GoFundMe Reportedly Removes Fake Sub Fundraisers Created to Help Search & Rescue
Scammers are trying to make money off the latest tragedy and it’s leaving people outraged According to TMZ

The meter was at 0!
At 5000-6000 they had to have been instantly turned into micro dust. The bodies on the Titanic were gradually exposed to that pressure as the ship slowly sank to the ground. But it was an explosion with the Titan. I imagine just like the metal part of that lightbulb was the only thing left intact, the nose of the Titan was the only thing left intact. They said it was 1600m away from the Titanic so I'm guessing the nose popped off like a bottle top and the rest was blown to smithereens.
So it was just lights out. They didn't even know they exploded.

'Mythbusters' video shows what a deep-sea implosion does to a faux human in a scuba suit | Business Insider India
Underwater, the pressure increases by about one atmosphere every 10 meters. Mythbusters experimented to see what an implosion looks like at 300 feet.

Mythbusters Ending After Next Season Just like mankind's belief in falsehood and superstition, Mythbusters is going off the air, EW reports. The end comes not from a nationwide shortage of ballistics gel but rather from the show's sagging ratings. Mythbusters has aired on Discovery since...

As an international search continued for a vessel that disappeared after setting out for the underwater wreckage of the Titanic, a man who was one of the submersible company’s first customers characterized a dive he made to the site two years ago as a “kamikaze operation.”
“You have to be a little bit crazy to do this sort of thing,” said Arthur Loibl, a 61-year-old retired businessman and adventurer from Germany.
Loibl told The Associated Press on Wednesday that he first had the idea of seeing the Titanic wreckage while on a trip to the South Pole in 2016. At the time, a Russian company was offering dives for half a million dollars.
After Washington state-based OceanGate announced its own operation a year later, he jumped at the chance, paying $110,000 for a dive in 2019 that fell through when the first submersible didn’t survive testing.
Two years later he went on a voyage that was successful, along with OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, French diver and Titanic expert Paul-Henri Nargeolet and two men from England.
“Imagine a metal tube a few meters long with a sheet of metal for a floor. You can’t stand. You can’t kneel. Everyone is sitting close to or on top of each other,” Loibl said. “You can’t be claustrophobic.”
During the 2.5-hour descent and ascent, the lights were turned off to conserve energy, he said, with the only illumination coming from a fluorescent glow stick.
The dive was repeatedly delayed to fix a problem with the battery and the balancing weights. In total, the voyage took 10.5 hours.
The group was lucky and enjoyed an amazing view of the wreck, Loibl said, unlike visitors on other dives who only got to see a field of debris or in some cases nothing at all. Some customers lost nonrefundable payments after bad weather made descent impossible.
He described Rush as a tinkerer who tried to make do with what was available to carry out the dives, but in hindsight, he said, “it was a bit dubious.”

Man, I just read up on this.
In one one thousandth of a second the air inside that junt compressed until it IONIZED...super heating until it turned into PLASMA hotter than the surface of the sun, instantly vaporizing everything in its path. They didn't even have time to be crushed. They were ERASED, ATOMIZED, like they never existed.
Physics is CRAZY and nature is SCARY.
What Really Happens to a Human Body at Titanic Depths
A Millisecond-by-Millisecond Explanation
It’s a scene straight out of a horror movie — a submersible with five souls on board implodes, deep below the ocean’s surface, at the resting place of the infamous Titanic.
Many reporters are asking if there will be an attempt to bring up the bodies.
But what actually happens to the human body in such unfathomable depths? The answer lies in the peculiar, high-pressure, high-temperature world of deep-sea physics. Join me on a journey through time — millisecond by millisecond — to explore this dark, alien realm.
The Physics of Pressure
Before we take the plunge, let’s do a quick crash course on pressure. In everyday terms, pressure is force exerted on an area. In our normal environment, that’s air pressure. But as you descend under water, that pressure increases due to the weight of the water above. Roughly, for every 10 meters (33 feet) you descend, the pressure increases by 1 atmosphere (atm), or approximately 14.7 pounds per square inch (psi).The Titanic wreckage lies at a depth of about 3,800 meters (12,500 feet). At that depth, the pressure is an astonishing 380 atmospheres, or about 5,600 psi. That’s equivalent to having a large elephant standing on every inch of your body.
Milliseconds of Terror
In our dreadful scenario, let’s assume the submersible wall failed suddenly and catastrophically. What would happen to the passengers within?The First 10 Milliseconds
At the very moment the hull breaches, there’s an immediate equalization of pressure. The air inside the submersible, previously at a comfortable 1 atmosphere, must now contend with the 380 atmospheres outside.The results are explosive. Literally.
Pascals are a unit of pressure. At this depth, the pressure on all sides of the air bubble containing these five men is 38,503,500 pascals. This is the same amount of pressure released by 292 kilograms of C4 explosive.
But this is just the start of our descent into the trauma abyss. The imploding bubble of the submersible generates intense heat due to adiabatic compression.
11–50 Milliseconds: Fiery Inferno Below the Waves
Adiabatic compression is a rapid, heat-generating compression process that occurs in gasses under extreme pressure.As the submersible collapses, the quickly compressing pockets of gas inside it heat up rapidly, reaching temperatures that may exceed several thousand degrees Celsius for a brief moment.
The searing heat would vaporize flesh and bone, but this pales in comparison to the rapid pressure changes already wreaking havoc on the body. The passengers would already be dead due to the massive bodily trauma by the time the heat wave hits.
50 Ms to 1 Second: The Speed of Pain
A human’s reaction to pain depends on the transmission of signals from our peripheral nervous system to our brain. Once the signals reach the brain, we feel pain. This process is not instantaneous — it takes time.Under normal conditions, a sensation of pain, such as from a stubbed toe or a pinch, reaches our brains about 0.1 seconds after the event. This is because the signals travel at a speed of about 2 meters per second along our nerves.
However, sharp, sudden pain can be perceived slightly faster, at around 0.01 seconds due to the involvement of faster-conducting nerves called A-delta fibers.
Comparing these timeframes to the catastrophic implosion event we’ve been discussing, the submersible’s complete collapse takes place in about 50 milliseconds (0.05 seconds). This means the implosion happens 2 to 10 times faster than the human body can register pain.
Given this, it’s probable that the occupants of the submersible would not have had time to even comprehend anything at all had happened, much less feel pain from the event itself.
The sequence of events — the crushing pressure, the searing heat of the compression of air, and the violent intrusion of water — would likely occur faster than the brain’s ability to process any thoughts.
That’s a cold, small comfort, perhaps, but it’s a detail that can help us cope with the death these five people experienced. Our brains, evolved to react to the world at the surface, simply don’t have the time to comprehend the immediate and extreme changes happening in those fateful 50 milliseconds beneath the waves.
From Tragedy, Knowledge
The sudden implosion of a submersible, while terrifying, provides a glimpse into the harsh realities of deep-sea exploration and the physics at play in these extreme environments.The lessons learned from these tragic incidents are incorporated into writing regulations for manned submersibles, the design of future submersibles, making each new venture into the depths a little bit safer.
Through tragedy, we gain knowledge — knowledge that helps us better understand our world and how to navigate its dangers.
It’s a harsh lesson, a testament to the extremes the human body can — and cannot — endure. But it also shows us the immense power of nature, the fragility of life, and the courage of those who dare to push the boundaries of human exploration.
And with each dive, with each venture into the unknown, we’re reminded just how much there still is to discover.
In the end, the quest to understand our world — from the deepest oceans to the farthest stars — is a testament to human curiosity and resilience. It’s a journey filled with risks, challenges, and, sometimes, profound loss. But it’s through this journey that we learn, grow, and push the boundaries of what’s possible.

Yep! In a nutshell!
Another thing that we learned when it comes to carbon fiber ABOVE (planes) ..... OK !
BELOW (subs) .... NOPE !!! I'm good !The more time goes on, the more I find this story hard to
fathom...
fathom...
Yeah bro, I didn't consider what the pressure would do to the air. They were air fried before they were turned into pulled pork. Chicken of the sea indeed.
They are dropping off the scraps of the Titan sub a a Canadian port. Looks like the from hole that had the window for viewing survived.
