Quote:On 18 June 2023, the submersible Titan operated by OceanGate Expeditions went missing in the North Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Newfoundland.

Reading that really puts shit into perspective...
It's just one of countless vessels that have perished in those unforgiving North Atlantic waters.
But do we really gotta keep bringing Newfoundland into this? I get that they disembarked from NFLD but...

Is it really super duper fair to continually use NFLD as a place marker for where the Titanic is??
It's actually like really far away from there. It's bad press.
Rant aside...
Notice in that map pic, "Anomaly Ridge"...

Quote:The ridge consists of anomalously thick oceanic crust that formed as a result of a major volcanic pulse during the Cretaceous.
It's called "Anomaly" for a reason.
I've told you about the magnetic anomaly off of Grand Bank...

Due to some type of magnetic anomaly I would assume.
One of these areas that I personally know about is right off the southeast coast (Grand Banks) of Newfoundland, Canada.
It's nearly impossible to track down any info besides the graphs that show this magnetic anomaly online.
But it's even harder to find anything about the heartbeat/pulse coming from deep below the water in that area.
There used to be a few info sources about it 10 or 15 years ago in a Google search but they're gone.

It's an asphalt volcano.
There's some speculation that there's a similar anomaly going on with the Bermuda Triangle.
I dunno if that's true, I don't personally believe it.
There's proof of an actual magnetic force off the coast of Newfoundland and I'm pretty sure no such thing has been proven about the Bermuda Triangle. That said, I've never looked into it that much because I'm not very interested in the Bermuda Triangle.
Anyway...
I'm not saying I think it's related or anything.
But the positioning is quite interesting when you compare the maps...

This is all I could find when searching for whether or not any magnetic anomalies have been found in the region of the Bermuda Triangle...

I don't think any of it actually has to do with the Bermuda Triangle, just seems to be using it as a turn of phrase.
It's interesting nonetheless.

The submersible had taken 10 dives... after the 6th, it was probably dangerously compromised. The lack of ping suggests implosion. It's just not there anymore. They know it's imploded, they're just doing their due diligence to search for it before they announce the truth.

What's left is probably down on the ocean floor the size of a crushed soda can... they'll never find it.

Trapped in a net or in the Titanic wreckage isn't likely just because of the lack of ping. There's no ping because there's no vessel.

They would have spotted it if it was floating. It wouldn't have gone all that far.

Well actually, it would have imploded and then exploded as well... so there's probably just nothing left of it at all.
You'd think an implosion would have at least caused a blip that may have been recorded by some kind of instrument, but the sub was so small, I don't think a blip is even a given.

Pinged every 15 min. so it must have imploded in the space of the 15 min. after the final ping and it wasn't quite down to the wreckage site yet, so I doubt they ever saw the Titanic. The pressure was just too much for a compromised vessel. Likely that some small component failed, probably nothing big or obvious like the porthole area.

What really weirds me out about this situation is all the comments I've read on the various videos on these news channels.
People saying they feel bad for the passengers, and oh the horror and terror they must have felt.
Like no, if it imploded, they wouldn't even know. So you can't use the whole loosh harvest 'terror' tactic on this.
If you search YT for content about the Titanic, the amount of views those videos get is completely insane...
https://www.youtube.com/results?search_q...er+footage
It's a bunch of very creepy clickbait videos like these...
https://images.sectual.com/upload/2023/0...5fdf48.png
What do you wanna bet there are people out there dumb enough to believe there was actually a camera around on the voyage with recoverable film? Just stupid, my friends.
But it's worse than stupid...
It's an obvious sign that humanity is nothing but a bunch of bottom feeding, trauma obsessed fucking freaks who like to pretend they watch the horror porn because they "feel bad" for the victims.
Sorry, no. You're not capable of feeling bad... you're evil, vile, wicked scum.
Need more proof?

"Titanic's Last Hours" ASMR style.
Comments full of "Oh the terror, those poor people, they were sooo scared!"
This is just the newest video like this. They make one every year.
Posted 2 months ago, one million views.
This is what humanity loves.

I can't understand the fascination with the Titanic.
I was intrigued by the topic when I was younger, because I was a kid when the 1997 movie came out and they made a huge deal out of it.
They hooked the audience with a BS made up love story.
Even when I was a kid, I recognized that it was just a strategy to invoke an emotional response out of people.
Then when the 20th anniversary of the movie came around, they roped in a whole new generation of Titanic obsessors with the drama.
They just keep on capitalizing on this loosh harvest, it's clear as day.
I stopped being interested in the Titanic over 10 years ago when I finally found out WHY they took it out, to get to John Jacob Astor IV, et al. It demystifies the situation and if you keep being interested in it beyond that, I don't know about you.
Most certainly anyone obsessed enough with it to pay $250k to go down there on a rinkydink jerryrigged sub has got issues that they need to think about long and hard.
Again, not being judgemental of the dead...
There are plenty of people who are still alive who have gone down there to gawk at the ocean's most famous graveyard. They need to check themselves.

It's very unnatural to go to those depths in the ocean... no human is ever supposed to be down there. Just the same as no human is ever supposed to be in space. Yet they insist on doing both... clearly with a lot more interest in going to space so they can colonize and fucking ruin another planet. Admittedly, it's probably easier to go to space than it is to go to the ocean's depths. Doesn't mean they shouldn't develop the tech to master their own backyard before they try and go out to space to take a shit in somebody else's though.

25:00 Steve's right man...
If they did hear banging and they believed the passengers were alive and just trapped underwater in a net or something, they wouldn't tell the public, it's just too disturbing.
I have a hard time believing any banging coming from the vessel would even be audible.
If they could hear banging "in the area" then they could absolutely find the sub.
Maybe they did find it but there's nothing they can do so they're not gonna tell the public that.
I dunno. I find it hard to believe that it didn't implode.

Maybe initially assuming implosion was way too positive an outlook.

That's probably what they are doing, and found one. Then shut off the stream.

0:50 hmmm... could they have possibly made it to the debris field? What if they really did get caught up in the wreckage and couldn't get loose, AND they lost power too? That'd be seriously fucked up. I guess it's possible. I still don't think that's what happened.
6:26 lol... I like this Aaron guy.
8:07 the synching of spare remotes is a really good point.
9:50 another great point re: the oxygen supply. I doubt they really tested it to that degree. It's possible if they were stuck and knocking, they may have run out of air yesterday when the knocking supposedly ceased.
12:40 well after seeing this, I have no doubt they're definitely dead at this point, whether it imploded or not. Just the plot holes with the air situation alone is enough to close the book on the question of whether they're still alive.
16:03 he's right, the fact that loss of comms was so typical suggests they might have just gone ahead and started exploring around the wreckage because they were so close to it at that point. The mothership probably just figured they'd reestablish contact hours later on the way back up. Maybe something went wrong and they got trapped. That's the only reason they wouldn't utilize the various methods to get back to the surface.
I mean... Stockton was the main dude behind this whole operation and he was on board. Harding had done all kinds of insane shit, I'm sure he figured it would go fine. Maybe they felt emboldened because of their previous experiences with exploration. How common was it for Stockton to be on board?? Did they all feel like this specific trip was a special occasion just because of the people involved?? They were all pretty much billionaires. It's not always mega wealthy people who take that trip, sometimes it's just hardcore obsessors. Maybe they felt like they could push the envelope with exploration in this instance because of who they all were?
I would imagine that the passengers themselves in this specific situation could have a lot of sway on whether or not they abort the mission as soon as something "typical" goes wrong, or they choose instead to push the envelope and go on with the mission anyway.
19:00 "ridiculous and unsafe"... I think that sums up the whole operation very well.
19:13 well there you have it. This was Stockton's attitude about things. Looks like they decided to mess around down there even after having lost comms because they just didn't take the situation seriously enough, and they all paid the ultimate price for it.

That's what I was thinking too...
Can you even call it the Titanic anymore??
Not really.
It's just a deep sea bacteria covered blob now, if anything ran into it with much force it would probably just collapse.

After watching that video, listening to a guy who actually knows what the hell he's talking about when it comes to subs...
They may not have even lost power at all. Just comms. Because it was so typical and probably even expected.
It really is seeming more like they may have gotten snagged on something and couldn't get free.
I'd rather believe the implosion angle, but now I have my doubts.

The banging sounds supposedly detected by the sonar are a lot more plausible if they got snagged after they lost comms and couldn't get free from whatever they were trapped in.
With the doubts that Aaron guy raised around the air system... it seems like they may have gotten stuck down there and ran out of oxygen way before the 96 hours we keep hearing about.
It seems totally possible that they detected the banging on the sonar, but never had eyes on the sub because there aren't even any subs that can get down that fucking far.
I just never considered those possibilities because I was sold on the likelihood of implosion.
Needless to say, OceanGate is never gonna be operating again. I hope the families can sue the shit out of them somehow, because wow.
The idea that they actually made it down there and started poking around the Titanic graveyard and then got stuck...
Well that's just eerie, yo.
In that case, running out of oxygen far sooner than projected would have been nothing short of a blessing.
