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?

    It can be done. They have equipment and protocols for rescuing people from submerged subs.

      They do, yeah, but not from the depth of the Titanic wreck. If they are truly at the bottom, there is only a small amount of machines that are capable of going that deep. This is all new territory for rescue teams.

      Not saying it can’t be done, just that the prospects don’t appear hopeful to me, especially given they only have around 24 hours of oxygen remaining. They still haven’t even located them… I seriously hope they are rescued, but I think probability is against them unfortunately…
