This is probably the best case of not being able to have a single ounce of sympathy for that whole bunch, and what happened to them. The owner of that whole operation, was nothing but a smug, arrogant, self righteous prick.
The supposed "oceanographer" who went along, also knew James Cameron, who is considered to be an expert on these things. And who went to the bottom of the Marianas Trench in a sub he designed and built.
He was very vocal and critical of this POS, and told most everyone in the deep diving submersible community it was very DANGEROUS and UNSAFE the way it was constructed. And it should not be allowed to carry passengers.
About the only one I can and do feel sorry for, was the Indian kid of the wealthy father, who pushed him to go along. People said he was very scared. And only agreed to go along in order to please his arrogant, dipshit father who was pushing him.
