For those who are unaware: A couple billionaires, a pilot, and one of the billionaires’ son are currently stuck inside an extremely tiny sub a couple thousand meters under the sea (inside of the sub with the guys above).

They were supposed to dive down to the titanic, but lost connection about halfway down. They’ve been missing for the past 48 hours, and have 2 days until the oxygen in the sub runs out. Do you think they’ll make it?

        The sound signals could come from everywhere. Some small volcanic activity periodically releasing air bubbles or something.

          The sound was periodic though. Every 30min interval. One of the guys in the sub is a former marine member. Some other guy from the same marine was interviewed and said this type of signaling, with 30m intervals, was something taught in said marine.

            Yaaaa and Navy pilots thought they were seeing UFOs when it was just a duck. Anyone, even experts can be unreliable, especially in times of high stress.

              judge as you want, I personally think that something periodic like that, in a commonly used by humans timeframe even, was coming from the thing. By now we’ll never know tho

                Well we have a debris field now which means it imploded, and that means the sounds were not the guys in the sub.

                  that doesn’t even necessarily mean that, the thing could have imploded after they tried signaling

                  i don’t normally like discussing on reddit because people are so fierce for no reason. seems this didn’t change
