The 70-year-old’s official cause of death is still under investigation, but the coroner said “blunt force trauma is evident” from the crash.

    Dead billionaires are a dime a dozen this month. At least the last ones were interesting.

    I know, I know… but the submarine story really was an interesting news cycle. It was filled with weird shit and no one felt too bad about the outcome because it was the best outcome for that scenario and pretty much everyone involved was… not the most sympathetic.

    1. Deep-Sea Titanic Tourism Diving is a thing? (Who knew? I didn’t.)
    2. How much air does a man need? [News at 9:00].
    3. The Schrödinger’s Billionaire Problem explained. [BBC Reports].
    4. “I hope they died quickly in an implosion, but the alternate horrors are too horrific to ignore”. Let’s discuss.
    5. You made a submarine out of what?
    6. And all of this seemed like a totally good idea? To everyone? People pay for this?

    It would have been nice if everyone had been saved and no one suffered for days, but the second best outcome (sudden catastrophic implosion) really was the best outcome. Mainly because no one suffered.
