Eerie banging sounds that briefly gave rescue teams hope of saving the Titan submersible’s crew and passengers have been released.

The Titan was destroyed a few hours into a dive to the Titanic shipwreck on 18 June, claiming the lives of OceanGate Expeditions CEO Stockton Rush, father and son Shahzada and Suleman Dawood, Hamish Harding, and Paul-Henri Nargeolet.

Couldn’t this be the sound of the thing breaking up?

Yellow flag on play, reason: hijacking own thread.
Penalty: coffee.

“WARNING - Not to be taken internally!” - Slings and Arrows

In 12 cup drip percolator pot, fill to 6 cup mark with water.
In filter, put 6 heaping scoops of coffee.
Medium roast works best, just make sure it’s a robust blend.
Found a maxwellhouse ‘medium roast’ that was rather anemic.
Put pinch of salt in filter, about as much as it would take to cover the surface of a dime with one even layer.
This keeps the coffee from tasting burned too quickly, it doesn’t age well brewed this way.

Brew, recirculate if need be, usually not.
Add sugar and dairy creamer.
Creamora and coffeemate are not recommended unless you like the heart racing that Ranger Pudding gives.
That, and the nondairy creamer will give you both a headache and a buzz with the coffee.

I usually put about 8 spoons of sugar in this stuff, it ends up being like Russian Kava, thick and sweet with that bitter overtone to it.

Oh, and I am NOT responsible for seeming demonic possession of the coffeepot, or the coffeepot ending up acting as if it has been damaged.

Be sure NOT to add creamora or coffeemate to the brew, unless you LIKE ranger pudding style heart racing.
When I brew that stuff for myself, I recirculate the stuff to brew a second time, but that’s me for my own personal enjoyment, and it may wreck the coffeepot.
Don’t forget the salt, it’s important to the finished brew.

First released in 1955 by Smiley Davis. Dave Edmunds released a cover in 1970. Couldn’t find that title on Dave Mason song list....did he do a cover version somewhere?

Maybe if a deep sea current was banging wreckage together

Difficult to rule out...depends on where sound was coming from...could they triangulate it? Did microphone listen to a large area?
That whole fiasco makes me ill...go down 2.5 miles in some smart guys novel non-vetted invention.....just to get a glimpse of the gravesite of others...

It’s not wrong to explore the deep.

Its wrong to skimp and skip on safety and brag how great your flawed submersible design is.
