They say that getting squeezed can release fealings of anxiety. Imagine how good it must feel getting crushed by titanic depth pressure.

Suleman, the teenage student, was terrified of the dive but ended up going with his dad because he trusted him and it was the Father's Day weekend.

I feel for him, and for his mother who gave up her seat so he could go. Fuck the billionaires but he was 19 - I can't feel any humour about his death, or for what this must've done to his mother.

I'm sure the others had family members too who have gone through hell while the world laughed.

We can have compassion for those people while still shrugging at the stupidity of the willing dead.

You can have my compassion, I don't need it.
