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.

Not for me. I would like at least one minute of warning to ask God for mercy in Judgment while I still can.
