There are worse ways to go, and at least a couple of these guys died doing what they loved best. Small comfort to their families and loved ones, but it’s something.

In terms of energy, what they experienced was equivalent to being in a pressure vessel the size of an SUV, and having on the floor in the center of the SUV a bomb made of a bit less than 60 pounds of TNT, and that bomb explodes.

That amount of TNT equivalent energy is calculated on the basis of an estimated implosion depth of 8000 feet.

What happened to the bodies is the scavengers and bone worms got them. There probably isn’t anything left of them at all.

Meat paste.

the key here is an army of regulators and a library of regulators would’ve prevented this tragedy-

just see the FAA and the Boeing Max as a shining example.

Better than owning a Bayliner, anyway.

They were “Smallerized”.

This implosion was something like a massive pressure cooker as well. When the craft’s structure failed due to the immense pressure of diving 12,500 feet, the air bubble inside compressed, causing a massive spike in temperature, roughly 10,000 degrees Fahrenheit: the sun's surface. The video points out that if anything were left, the remains would be gelatinous and expelled through the many cracks and crevices of the damaged submersible.

Jack Dawson, I imagine, would've arrived to the ocean floor relatively intact as every cell in his body filled with water and the pressure differential equalized.

Same reason they've found intact musical instruments like violins and pianos in the wreckage.

How … inspiring.

Exactly like what old white guy engineers aren’t, apparently.

Why does the end of that first paragraph say, “Also they had run out of oxygen that morning.”? Isn’t that rather stupid in light of the fact that it was determined the vessel had imploded on Sunday?🤦🤦🤦

[Does so]

Maybe time to say, “What’s that crunching sound”?

remains that are now part of the ecosystem

Well in a larger sense aren't we all part of the ecosystem that is this planet.

Disaster? C’mon! It was several breathtakingly foolish people who,in their final moments,had trouble catching their breath.

I worked for a Tier I automotive body stamping plan where the dies were big enough to stamp out a body side panel for the Lincoln Navigator.

You could have a skilled tradesman working in the thing and if it wasn't properly shut down with supports installed in the press, the gear could give out, the die would drop and the worker would be squashed to the thickness of a quarter instantly.......

Decades ago before OSHA came along, plant accidents were common due mostly to operator negligence. When I first started at the plant, there was a sanitation worker, Mr. Gates, who wore a hook on his left arm. He had lost the arm at the elbow in one of the stamping presses.........
