Titan crew said 'all good here' before submersible imploded
Titan crew said 'all good here' before submersible imploded
Two-week public inquiry sees last communication before deep-sea disaster near wreck of Titanic last year.
It was, infact, not all good there.
Nah, I'll just watch Iron Lung, thanks.
Thanks, I hate it

If subnautica taught me anything, he voiced the actual sub.
After decades of journalists attaching the suffix "gate" to anything even remotely scandalous, I was disappointed that I never heard anyone embrace the full stupidity of this practice by referring to this story as "Oceangate-gate"
After some thought, I've decided that we should refer to this apparent lapse by journalists as "Oceangate-gate-gate"
Now... Which dialogue choice did he take?
-
"All good here"
-
"All good here" (Lie)
To be fair, at the exact moment he said "All good here" it probably was. It just became very ungood, very quickly.

All good here 👍💥
Followed shortly by ‘oh shit’ and ‘we dropped two weights’ then ‘guys, it’s getting kind of wet in here…’
Just kidding, mostly.
Serious question: how does a submarine know how much it weighs?
Explosive decompression is almost instantaneous at that depth. They wouldn't have had a chance to even blink.
Implosive compression?
Yeah, it was definitely intended as
humoran attempt at levity.Yeah, the ocean was decompressed by a tiny bit..
Explosive decompression
Doubly backwards
I assume that the submarine producer gives stats like empty weight from which the current weight can be calculated.
However, weight isn't the important thing in a sub. It's the weight to volume ratio, or buoyancy.
A sub sinks when buoyancy is negative and rises if the buoyancy is positive.
There are three common ways to achieve the changing buoyancy: the most simple one is a vessel with positive buoyancy adding droppable weights until the buoyancy is negative.
Other ways are a neutral buoyancy vessel that uses it's engine power to push itself up or down. Or a vessel that can change it's buoyancy by filling up tanks with water (to reduce buoyancy below neutral) and blow them out with air or other gases lighter than water (to raise buoyancy above neutral). A combination of several methods is also possible.
It was good
Amazing how intact the back half is given, you know, explosive decompression.
