And....?

Head on down 12,500 feet in a vehicle not sufficient for that adventure

OR head on up Everest - ignoring the realities of oxygen deprivation, thin altitudes that hamper or prevent helicopter rescue, and let’s not forget the extreme weather and temperatures.

Let us know how you do.

Some have made it to the goal at Everest. Many did not.

Or if you think a sight-seeing adventure to Titanic is not without extreme risk, then good luck.

I read this was the submersible’s 3rd trip down. A 33% failure rate is pretty scary.
