I knew it was silly even as a kid but it was all tongue firmly in cheek. I remember going to see the Michael Keaton film at the metro centre and thinking it was shite in comparison. A view which has stood the test of time tbf 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig 12389 Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 Shows how fucking ridiculous inflation has got. Half a million quid to see Titanic … back in 1997 it cost about £4.50 to see it! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 50772 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 It seems the step son of one of the billionaires on board went to a Blink 182 concert whilst the search was going on. 1- Who knew they were still gigging? 2- I hope they played this … 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 27805 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 This Titan submarine was well fucking dodgy. None of the components certified. There was a bloke on C4 news last night who was due to make this trip but backed out as he was concerned by the lack of certification. Smart move. This thread is great for anyone interested in how to do things properly (as in Deepsea Challenger) and how fucked up this Titan sub was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread is great for anyone interested in how to do things properly (as in Deepsea Challenger) and how fucked up this Titan sub was. The thing was controlled by an off-brand gaming console controller. The ones that your kid is disappointed with if they get one in their Christmas stocking. They had no voice communication with the surface because the CEO didn’t like being disturbed on dives. It was made of carbon fibre, based on cf pressure vessels designed to withstand internal pressure, as opposed to the massive external pressure it would be dealing with-This is mental btw, how the fuck did they ever get to the point of taking punters down in it? The viewing window was only rated to 1500m, not the 4000m the wreck lies at. The only good thing really, is that the CEO insisted on leading every dive in it, so with him now Shippam’s spread for deep sea lobsters, he’s not going to kill more people with his insanely dangerous “projects”. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 27805 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Shame he had to kill a teenager to prove what a great rule breaking entrepreneur he was. This is a great example of why regulations and certifications are necessary. Anyway, these people can get fucked. Doing this purely to boast at their champagne enema parties that they've visited the titanic. They're not explorers, they are contributing nothing to the World and doing this for pure vanity. Meanwhile hundreds of immigrants die on a fishing boat in the Med, not a single name will be remembered. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkeys Fist 50772 Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 In other news, but a similarly ominous potential for fuckery and death… https://phys.org/news/2023-06-mission-dead-satellites-atmosphere.html A British firm plans to capture old satellites and drag them in to the atmosphere to burn up. Nothing can possibly go wrong here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
