Very sad but also very suspicious. There is a billionare on board of this submarine. Titanic ghosts? Pirates of the sea? Let's talk conspiracy...

Really don't need a conspiracy for this: Only rich people can afford it. Shit like this is dangerous.

Rich people can afford to get themselves killed in all kinds of outlandish ways. The rest of us have to have car accidents or something.

And cars have a long history of lessons learnt, QA, etc.

I really don't feel that bad about the crew/tourists. They trained for months and paid lots of money. Consent doesn't get more informed than that.

play stupid games, win stupid prizes. i don't know how anyone in thier right mind would think this is a good idea.

Most of my questions on this revolve around things like what flag was the ship under that let them do this.

these are not tourist attractions. at best they are protected historical sites, but really its a freaking water tomb, there is no reason to be jaunting to the bottom of the sea for fun.

The only suspicious thing about this is that it took this long of that death trap of a sub to kill someone lol. Also not internet piracy related.

If you really want a conspiracy theory though: the orca attacks against sail boats have escalated, they are now performing all out class war. I for one welcome our new cetacean comrades.
