Last I heard, $200,000.00 to take sub down to look at Titanic.

This is a dangerous form of entertainment. Doesn’t sound good. Prayers for them all.

I bet the passengers signed a very lengthy waiver.

So much for a ‘trip of a lifetime’.

If it didn’t come back up in the allotted time, they are most likely dead. IIRC, the Titanic is under 12,500 feet of water. That equals over 5,000 PSI on the hull.

Any chance, you think, that they are still alive wherever they are stranded, and rescuable? I wonder the dimensions of their craft, number aboard and air supply timeline? Probably cold too, if they lost power. Wonder if the craft had CO2 scrubbers or such to p[rolong survival time if they needed rescuing?

If it would help me in the intelligence department I would.

Just a question of time until a Space Tourist rocket makes the same one way trip.

Bots with hi res cameras and lots of lights would do it for me.

I wouldn’t need the real thing.

I remember the Kursk. When the Russians waited until they knew the crew was dead before allowing Western help. The Finnish rescue diver connected to the stricken sub at the “escape port hatch” but when opened, the Kursk was full up with sea water and all aboard dead.

No thanks, on that sort of “voyage”, for me.

Prayers up.

I vaguely remember the movie.

Admittedly I bought the score on ITunes for Raise The Titanic.

Thought it was a good soundtrack.

Oh, no. How horrific. I remember hearing about the Russian submarine that couldn’t surface and how they died. This is terrible.
