Ah okay
Yeah I'd assume so indeed but I'd hope they realize after a while that cooperation will get them further in their situation. Plenty of time to be angry after you've rescued yourself, hopefully.Titanic tourist submersible missing | Sub's debris found - crew "have been lost"

Each person create a sort of cocoon around themselves to breathe their own farts
imagine being in there!
Agreed. The experience can be virtually identical in VR as to what you would see in real life. It’s amazing how little you get for how much you have to pay for these expeditions. For the discomfort and inconvenience too.
Interestingly he actually deleted the tweet!
I don't know I'm only summarizing. I'm no expert in fact I haven't a clue merely suggesting that the French guy who's taken 40 odd trips or so would have some expertise in preserving/ conserving oxygen. Maybe.H.. How?
Isn't it possible to ping phones without reception though? Or have BBC crime dramas been lying to me all these years.
I do wonder how agitated the passengers must be getting. I’d imagine panicking and excessive use of energy will naturally deplete the oxygen supplies quicker. However it can’t be easy to remain calm when you are aware there’s less than 24 hours of oxygen left. It must be really terrifying.
Has anyone seen anything credible on what they would do if they actually found the sub intact on the bottom of the ocean? Is there another vessel available that is capable of such depths and simultaneously able to haul it up? Or would it be a mission to attach a cable to it?
No chance. They wouldn’t get a signal for miles even if they were on the surface.
I think if the sub is still at the bottom where the ship wreck is then I fear they don’t have enough time even if they are found. I believe it takes 10-12 hours for a full round trip from the top to the bottom and then back up again. If they are needing to be pulled back up, I’d imagine it’ll take even longer. So even finding the sub with 4-5 hours of oxygen left might still not be enough.
France sent a ship capable conducting operations in those depths. They have a robot that can descend and hopefully untangle the Titan from the wreckage if it is indeed stuck. But first things first is actually locating it and identifying the issue.
Yeah. At this point it would be a miracle if they survive. Their best chance would have been if they were floating around the surface somewhere, but the banging noises indicate they are below surface. I'd say there is higher chance of them never being found than there is of them surviving.
Basically you need to do long slow breaths. That's how you conserve oxygen when scuba diving at least.H.. How?
Also just seen Oisín Fannigs interview on BBC and he's been twice and maintains they would have been conserving oxygen from day one. The French guy was a commander of submarines he feels he'd know what to do as regards situations. It's on the BBC news website.H.. How?
In all likelihood they will be in total darkness, maybe just an emergency torch or something. They wouldn't be able to see each other to fight.
Total darkness, under water. God I'm so glad I'm not in that sub.
Based on what I've read from the experts, this would be the only way to save them if they're at the bottom. And even if they found them (with a remote-controlled sub), attaching the cable would be very difficult. Such equipment does exist, but I don't think it has ever been operated at such depths. It would be a miracle if they could pull it off.
Apparently the banging noise wasn't human made sound after all.
No banging jokes please
No banging jokes please
Feel it's a bit too late now, not even located with only 20 hours of oxygen left.
If they found the vessel stranded on the bottom and it isn't tangled up in the debris field that surrounds the Titanic then the quickest option would be to attach some buoyancy bags to it and inflate them.
It would be a pretty violent journey as the air introduced to those bags would then expand even further as the vessel rose.
You would have to have some redundancy there, because if one if the bags ruptured....then it might come crashing back down again.
Attaching a tether and running it upto the surface would be more reliable but might take too long and you'd need a vessel close by with a huge a frame crane to take the load.
Either option isn't great against a ticking clock

As I saw someone say on Twitter, there's gotta be a lot of poop and urine right now is that tiny capsule. Imagine the smell? What a horrific, undignified and pointless end.
Whales trolling. "Aw, poor humans stuck?"
Go Victor, go!
Where did you read that? Better for the crew if they indeed died instantly on Sunday
Use less oxygen over a longer period of time.H.. How?
Totally get that
I hate the rich and inequality as much as anyone, but ultimately these are just people stuck in a nightmare scenario. And likely to die.
Haven't read anything that suggests they're even close to locating it, so surely we're very quickly approaching the best case scenario being retreiving bodies?
Stepson of billionaire goes to 'punk' gigs and is abusive to homeless people. We do live in a funny old age.
If one or more of them start panicking in that confined space it would be absolutely terrifying
I think they will scale down considerably when the 96h pass, no point wasting that many resources and time just to retrieve the bodies.
...under the sea?
Only just realised that the sub could be floating on the surface somewhere and a) could still not be found plus b) they'd run out of oxygen anyway, as the door is bolted on from the outside. Nuts!
Looks multiple times more high tech than the metal tube it's looking forGo Victor, go!
Yes, in the city of Rapture. Where only the free market rules.
At least it wouldn't be dark.
I'd imagine any major effort to locate them after the 96h will be privately funded.
We're already very close to a rescue being off the cards.
What a horrible way to go.
Apparently the search party got hit with fog for an extended period as well
True!
