Or even if they have the electricity to be able to see at all.
It occurred to me that their final moments could truly be: trapped in an airtight tube, 3,800m below the surface, dwindling air supply, and no. light. Pitch darkness. No way to know if anyone is coming, how long you’ve been down there, or if the sub will instead (mercifully) give way to the pressure and crush you instantaneously and without warning.
His interview with John Oliver is funny.
I stayed off of it for a bit after the first 48, because I needed one of the support subs there. Then the Titan news was going on and the wealth of shitty remarks about the people in the sub was too much for me. I get the whole ‘eat the rich’ mentality, but the sheer vitriol people had against someone they didn’t know didn’t exactly paint the commenters in a favourable light.
Hoping that such opinion is tempered somewhat over here.
