It might have happened near the surface and the sub just plunged from there...............

“Hope his company is forced to pick up the tab for the S&R.”
If the company didn’t request the rescue operations then perhaps they’re not on the hook for them. But certainly lawsuits unless the participants signed wavers.
I wonder why the vessel wasn’t tethered by a cable to the support ship.
Maybe they drove the vessel somewhere where the propellor got tangled up.

Lost?? It’s NOT Lost, they went down to see the Titanic, They are on it right now, probably sitting on the bow in their sub...

The CEO, Founder, and man responsible, is on board, his last hours must be filled with some harsh criticisms from the customers.
“Stockton Rush, founder of the company that owns the missing submersible visiting the Titanic wreckage, has said safety is “pure waste”.

Some 50 yo white guy should come up and say he’d spotted it but wasn’t inspired to go do a rescue.

“..but lost contact with its research ship the Polar Prince about 1 hour and 45 minutes into its journey...”
That’s when it imploded. Passengers at one with the sea. Here’s a plan: attach the bloody thing to fail safe cable, air and communication lines.

The bit about not hiring white guys should have been a tell. Wokeness is a mental disorder.
