4:10 / 14:18 The people being able to breathe . . .:
What they have on board, they have air for about 4 days. And also, they have a scrubber system similar to what they have on spacecraft. That converts CO2 back into breatheable air. They also have backup scrubbers. They also have, for final emergencies, SCUBA tanks beneath the floorboards.
4:41 / 14:18 Drinking water . . .:
One of the things that has not been mentioned, is how much water they have. The human body can only survive about 3 days without any water. . . They each only took along a canister of water. The dive itself was meant to last about 8 hours. 2.5 hours descent; 3 - 4 hours observation at depth, near the seabed; 2.5 hours ascent. They lost communications around 1 hour 45 minutes.

I was wondering if the submersible was equipped with some kind of CO2 scrubbing tech...
He didn’t hire 50 year old white guys because they all told him he’s stupid.
5:38 / 14:18 According to 1 report . . .:
They have 7 types of redundancy systems on board. They can re-float this vessel, if they get into trouble. And numerable of those systems work, if there is a power failure. If lights go out, and there is no power, they can still resurface this vessel. There are weights that they can drop, to create buoyancy. There are propellors that point up, in order to push the vessel up. There are airbags that can be inflated, in order to lift the vessel to the surface.
Now one idea is, that the vessel has surfaced, and it is bobbing around, waiting to be picked up. Possible, but unlikely; if on the surface, they could use radios in order to communicate. They might only have VHF and shortwave radios on the vessel. [His previous remark about they're not having radio - he apparently meant, no radio communications at depth.]
If power was lost, scrubber’s don’t work.
The problem with this DEI stuff is that there is only so much “D” to go around, roughly 12% of the country. So the harder it’s pushed, hiring has to take place further and further down on the quality scale. And so now the deaths it is becoming more and more apparent, numerous, and frequent.
Well, of course. The fact they were rich doesn’t exclude the fact they are still Paki’s
I am guessing, that they “hit a snag” ran afoul of something . . . somewhere between 8,500 and 9,500 ft. That puts the submersible in the 1.75 hours, time zone of descent.
If they have a redundant atmosphere scrubber system (mentioned in 1 report), then that redundant scrubber system might use a separate, emergency backup power source.
Yet, “the snag” might be “simply” the very cold water.
North Atlantic, at depths over 4,000, the seawater may be around 32 - 38 deg. F (0 - 3.6 deg. C).
Very quick video of what happens.
For now, if I conside that a catastrophic implosion - occured, there is certain gear of the submersible that floats, and that gear is not within the submersible capsule.
There is a chance that at least one of the large, bright orange, inflatable buoy devices would get clear, inflate automatically and make its way to the surface.
And probably some other gear would make its way to the ocean surface.
So, if an implosion took place just after 1 hour 45 minutes during the descent, I would expect that some debris would show within an observable surface area.
“One wonders if the real reason he didn’t hire any 50-year-old submariners is because they all took one look at the specs on his sub and said “I’m out.””
yep ...
Yup. He has no problem taking their money, does he? Would never hire them if they wanted a job, of course, as they lack “inspiration”. Hypocrite, indeed.
Whether this was the result of a freak accident, incompetence, murder, or terrorism...
Deep State will never come clean about it if it doesn’t serve Deep State’s purpose/s.
True, some debris will surface however spotting that in a very rough Atlantic is almost impossible.
The same people in the Biden Administration who want jet pilots chosen based on the democrat KKK rules?
