If I knew somebody in that sub I wouldn’t be too happy. But America is losing its sense of humor so it’s good to have the BB!

> Free Nintendo Wii remotes (redeemed in gift shop following successful tour)

Saves a lot of money by waiting until afterwards.

Being in the carbon fiber industry I would love to see their drawings, layup drawings, their FEA structural simulations, how they tested the vessel.

OceanGate promises that for their next submersible.

1) Despite the cost savings, it will not be made from “repurposed” Bud Light cans.

2) Venomous snakes will no longer be permitted aboard.

3) No fragmentary hand grenades in the future, either.

4) The new model will no longer have flush toilets.

5) Propulsion system batteries will be upgraded from AAA to AA.

6) Communications will no longer exclusively use discounted Samsung Galaxy Note 7 smartphones.

7) To no longer use Tannerite and Ammonium Nitrate as ballast.

8) “Having played video games” will no longer be considered as sufficient experience for a pilot.

At publishing time, tickets had been snatched up by a single customer, the director of Canada's medically-assisted suicide program.

You want your dark humor? THAT is dark humor.

Well played Bee. Well played.

The utter stupidity of this project needs to be ridiculed. A high school science class could have done a better job by at least diving the vessel, unmanned, to its test depth.

And they would have consulted a 50-year old white man with submariner experience.
