“Mauger added that it would be difficult to locate the bodies because the debris showed that it imploded due to the intense pressure”
I wonder if implosion at this depth and pressure even leaves recognizable bodies for retrieval and burial? Probably aren’t many prior known cases for comparison. RIP.
He probably fused with him, briefly.
Inaudibly bonded with him, he fused with him.
Gasping for breath? One theory is the pressure
situation killed them in a millisecond. It wasn’t
a slow tortured death
At least it was a quick death.
Of all of them, I did feel bad for the kid. The others should have known and accepted the risk
But someone should tell that woman the boy didn’t suffer.
In actuality, that is the way to go. You are obliterated before your brain registers anything.
When the USS Scorpion sank in 1968 after a casualty, they think it may have sunk to up to 3000 feet before it reached crush depth.
When it happened, when the hull imploded at crush depth, the entire stern section of the submarine telescoped into the bow of the submarine at 2,000 mph, and the entire submarine was flooded in 0.1 seconds.
They said it telescoped from stern to bow so rapidly and forcefully that it left the entire screw and shaft behind the crushed hull of the submarine.
That boy didn’t suffer.
I doubt there would be a need for “body recovery” since I wouldn’t think there would be any large body parts to be found.
Also, a good father/son bonding experience would be a week camping at a state park with a little fishing and a bit of canoeing. Evenings could be spent around the camp fire discussing life experiences (which do not involve going to dangerous ocean depths).
I can’t believe a father took his son on such a dangerous excursion.
If his father was some “60 year-old white guy” and former submariner, he would have probably suggested a camping trip instead.
I’ll say they “bonded”.
Can anyone tell me the truth about the alleged tapping sound that was reportedly heard during the search? Turns out the sub had already imploded, and everyone was dead. So where was the tapping coming from? Was there really a tapping sound, or was that just a lie?
Their surely bonded now...
He bonded.
A joke going around is that the name of the submersible was the SS-Pride, and it was manufactured out of “repurposed Bud Lite cans”.
They are together in Gods hands.
Had no idea what he was getting into
This Titan saga is so full of analogs it's surreal. A few examples:
Looks suspiciously like a couple thousand years of settled doctrine (cycle fatigue) is about to implode (yikes), and those on the inside will never see it coming. Blink of an eye. Rush. Shattered into a cloud of carbon-Titan fiber hull ( גוף , קלפה ) particles.
Aunt: דוֹדָה dodah of
Suleman Dawood
Named like Solomon, son of David.
There was the odd story about the stepson of Hamish Harding going to a "Blink 182" (whatever that is) concert while the search was ongoing.
In the Jewish spheres, the obvious numeric association is that 182 = Jacob. Well right, so what.
"Hamish" looks like it comes from Hebrew "5" and more, but the simple meaning is:
Supplanter, holder of the heel
Meaning: Supplanter, holder of the heel. Hamish is a boy's name of Scottish origin and a variant of the Irish name Séamus. Borrowed from the Hebrew name Jacob, Hamish means “supplanter” or “holder of the heel.”

Hamish really got around, down to Challenger Deep. He even went with Buzz Aldrin to the South Pole:

Either the CEO was on his own stealth suicide mission hoping this would be the one, or he believed in his own superpowers, just like everyone else on the ride down.
Well, except for poor Suleman. He only wanted to honor his father, so he let that desire override his fears.
The French explorer was (is) known as *the* Titanic expert.
Poor Aunt. He died instantly. But she had to think of him in agony for days because we wouldn’t come out with the information we had.
Not a peep from or about Suleman’s mother.
Guess they’re permanently bonded now.
