Was this submersible a single room vessel? I mean, no chance of separate watertight compartments where passengers might have taken refuge and still be safe yet? I know, grasping at straws....

Single compartment approximately the size of a mini van.

Someone described it as having about as much room as a small SUV. It was one cylinder. The sub guy I follow on YouTube said that carbon fiber shatters when it fails. When it failed, they didn’t live but a few seconds. Probably long enough to recall the number of times “death” was mentioned in the waiver. (Three times.)

A lawyer I just listened to mentioned enough evidence to indicate gross incompetence and negligence on the part of the company that owned and operated the sub. Not to mention they didn’t want any “fifty-year-old white men” involved.

Yes it was a single carbon fiber tube, no other rooms. Essentially like being in a 4 foot culvert.....................
