How about a tiny hole or a bad seal in an observation port. Water comes in at 5000 psi pressure slicing thru anything in front of it. Then slowly the cabin fills with water, electricity is lost and they drown, ultimately assuming ambient pressure and temperature on the bottom.

With my moderate claustrophobia I’m perfectly safe. I wouldn’t go in that thing alone for five minutes, with the door closed, on dry land, let alone a couple miles down, locked in with four other people

Me either.
I went inside a WWII submarine at the USS Alabama Battleship Park in Mobile, Alabama. It was terrifyingly claustrophobic inside.................

This type of operation being done in a commercial setting is bound to be far more dangerous. Corners are bound to be cut and there is no instant support team.

An acquaintance was scheduled to be a diver assisting them with the sub on the surface. He was sent home because of a medical issue, fortunately. He said there were issues with it that concerned him.

HaHa!
I grew up on Cape Cod in the 70’s. All summer long at camp there would be rumors that Ballard had found the wreck and then one day he did.
My own opinion is that they should cease these trips. It’s like gawking at a car wreck. The North Atlantic is a brutally beautiful place, but much caution is needed. I do not hold out much hope for these poor souls.

Enough of these dives to the Titanic. The site should be declared an international grave site and further dives banned. There is nothing important to learn about her sinking and retrieving artifacts in my opinion is tantamount to grave robbing. Let those poor souls rest. Sadly a few more souls may be added to the Titanic dead.

Back in 1969, my parents took me to Disneyland. I had a Disneyland picture book, prior to the trip, so it was my goal to take the submarine ride. Well, that’s how I first learned of the word “claustrophobia”, cuz my poor dad made them stop that ride short so that he could get off! Now, as an adult, I can sympathize. No thanks!

Right? At least there is a chance you’d meet up with the green chick.
