Please please remember before you callously laugh at a billionaire dying that reportedly the carbon fiber hull was heard making cracking noises while underway at depth in prior dives.
Imagine being such an entitled rich fuck that while you are thousands of feet down in the open atlantic ocean you hear the hull of your submarine cracking and you are so unfamiliar with the concept of not being able to pay your way out of the consequences (and then be praised for "solving" the issue as if you did so yourself rather than your wealth) that you continue to make deep sea dives with that sub and tell yourself you are smarter than experts who are telling you your sub is going to kill you.
Don't let the magnitude of how hilariously fatally egocentric that is slip by without taking a moment to laugh in the face of dead thieves.
The kid didn't deserve to die though :(
