  • Piers Morgan Uncensored is joined by oceanographer Dr David Gallo, friend of explorer Paul-Henri Nargeolet, Fred Hagen, and submersible expert William Kohnen to discuss the latest on the missing 'Titan' submersible as recent reports suggest there are reports of 'banging' noises being heard from the depths of the sea.
    David Gallo explains that he was initially skeptical of the reports of the banging noises - but admits that the sources that reported them are "very credible" and so now he is more hopeful and optimistic of a potential rescue.

    Titanic was a cautionary tale of how arrogance, hubris and lack of safety regulations killed many people. And it's these same things that led to this tragedy.

      How is he a visionary?🙂 By ignoring engineering principles and ignoring the concerns of his former employee and ignoring the regulatory body of engineers who sent him a letter citing each item of his sub that did not meet regulatory requirements? Including the XBox controller? The sub as a whole did not meet requirements. The best part is the Titan owner who is now trapped down there boasting that he did not want to , " hire a bunch of 50yr old whhyte guys," to design the sub. Of course not. Go hire diverse flakes.

  • @_.borahae
    @_.borahae Год назад +570

    The vessel has 7 possibilities to resurface, such as when the electricity fails. But it didn't show up. Because of this, I think there are mainly two scenarios what happened. The ship couldn't withstand the pressure and imploded or it's stuck somewhere. Stuck in the Titanic or craters on the sea floor... and that's why it doesn't reach the surface. I'm always for hope, but these people are 99.9% dead. A quick death from implosion, or a slow and painful death from lack of oxygen. Even if the vessel hasn't imploded and they locate it, it's already too late to save them. There's no equipment that would be able to recover this vessel at such a depth in time. I feel sorry for the families and the passengers. Especially for the 19-year-old boy who unlike all the other passengers was too young to make a mature decision to board this ship. The Ceo that fired the manager that warned him back in 2018 because of security issues... I have no words for his behavior.

      The problem is there are so many lives which could be saved and buoyed up by resources. This was a uniquely talented group, and it is so sad, but not sure why throwing unlimited resources at people who signed up for the risk makes too much sense, especially when it risks others’ lives searching for them, and unfortunately they are not alive.

Nothing was ground breaking with his submersible other than it was a back yard built death trap. The lights and one switch inside the entire sub was purchased at camper world. Other parts were from Home Depot. The craft was controlled by a gaming controller. If they were floating on the surface miles away they are bolted in and cannot open a hatch! Death trap!

    I've been interested in the Titanic since I'd first watched the 1950's film. I was convinced while watching this movie that the Titanic was long enough to hit the bottom with part of it sticking up as I had no perception of how deep the ocean really is. A few days after watching it I went to the library and borrowed Robert Ballard's book for kids that goes into the tragedy and the discovery of the wreck in 1985. The book has a few drawings that try to demonstrate how far down she is and just the illustration was enough to freak me out. The blackness in those 80's photographs of the boilers, the debris field, the railings, and understanding that no sunlight reaches that depth. The only aspect that later frightened me more was learning that those two and a half miles are almost shallow when compared to places like the Mariana Trench. It apparently takes something like four or five hours to free fall from the surface to where she is and, no. Absolutely not. As much as I love reading about and watching things about the Titanic, I could never be persuaded to visit her. The claustrophobia, the depth, the emotionally charged site... No.

    To Fred Hagen: I think it’s just fine if Stockton wants to go deeper, faster, whatever, in a tiny sub. It’s the fact that Stockton is selling his version of risk to unsuspecting people that is at issue. That’s what a “tourist” is, a person who has little knowledge of what “ride” he has chosen to ride, and wants to enjoy a little of this and a little of that, usually not in familiar surroundings, without worrying about anything. A tiny sub is a place where big worries can happen, much bigger than $250,000 per person, and I believe that Stockton knew this, and was irresponsible offering his version of risk to those who knew nothing about what they were getting into. NO KUDOS FOR STOCKTON ! You don’t get a pass for being irresponsible just because the government doesn’t pay for the research you think the government should pay for. FYI: The Wright Brothers weren’t selling tourist spots in their first plane.

They deserve everything they got coming to them for being so incredibly dense and such a strain on society with their decadent stupidity. All of this should expose the notion of meritocracy for the ideological myth that it is. According to bourgeois ideology these people have their positions and wealth as a result of sheer merit, intellectual superiority and work ethic. Never mind primitive accumulation, the fact that they are the beneficiaries of the fruits that violent conquest produced and never mind the state apparatus aka the biggest stick in the yard that sustains this arrangement, THESE are the most competent and hardest working people on the planet.
