I don’t understand how people can think otherwise. We don’t have submarines with the ability to go down to ground levels of the ocean because of the pressure and temperature, yet they thought this tiny capsule would be able to? The window would not be able to withstand that pressure, which would lead to it erupting and an implosion taking place. The implosion probably happened on Sunday, the day they went down there and that’s why they have been undetectable.
It’s honestly basic science yet most people seem obtuse to it all. Whoever thought this would work is an asshole and the billionaires who agreed to it are idiots.

You are not, the entirety of Reddit way saying this days ago. It was quite obvious from the start this would happen long before they ran out of oxygen.

I suspected it imploded at first, but after reading that warning the CEO ignored I was convinced.

It did work though, this vessel made more than ten trips to the wreckage site before it imploded. They need to make them stronger, next time.

I noticed the wires/cables on the outside of the sub. Is that normal? It looked as if it would be so easy for the sub to get hooked into the shipwreck.

OP is so information illiterate he doesn't know the sub went to the Titanic several times before this fatal trip.

What proof do we have about any of this?

James Cameron visited the wreck more than 30 times. His crew probably a lot more. It seems there're perfectly safe vessels. This was just not one of them. Shady company as well. I'm surprised those billionaires paid $250k for a trip and obviously did not do any research. I read there were documented safety concerns about the vessel and company.
I wonder if the passengers felt anything or if it happened really fast. CNN reported that they're trying to recover the bodies, but people on Twitter think there's just some human soup left.

It did it 20 times, OP That might have been the problem, actually - fatigue due to the repeated trips down and back up.

R15- Which was one of the warnings the CEO was given and ignored. He knew this and put people in peril anyway,

Obviously we do, given the footage and photographs we have of the Titanic. No, of course this stupid billionaire tube couldn't handle it, but there are something like 10 or 12 crafts that can dive down to that depth with people on board.

I had to completely explain the concept of implosion to my mother, it was an idea very hard ideas for her to grasp.

R19 I just witnessed a woman explaining it over and over to a bunch of adults. Crazy how many adults don’t know what it is. She also had to explain numerous times there would be no bodies in an implosion. They couldn’t get it.

I tried telling my family that it imploded and they just didn't believe me. I didn't have to say I told you so.

Also lighting a match would cause an EXPLOSION. Not IMPLOSION.

Investigating the stability of a DIY "Home Depot" submersible is the real $250,000 question. The $250,000 x 5 question.

I play a good deal of video games. The Logitech branded wireless controller was something they were asking for to fail. I have multiple Xbox controllers - even the worn-down ones have 10x more reliability than that cheap piece of shit. And all I do with them is play video games! Not control a makeshift submersible made in a garage holding billionaires.
Greed, greed, greed. Greed imploded the Titan, and the souls on board that also forced their children on board are terrible.
