I was thinking about that, then thought a tether might become tangled but they probably shouldn't get that close anyway and it could come with a release.
Sorry for butting in, hard to resist though because it had been playing on my mind.
So old mate Jimmy Jimbo Jimmy James Cameron was able to independently confirm last Monday that along with a loss of communication there was a loss of tracking (transponder) and that underwater listening devices had detected a signature consistent with implosion around the time of loss of communication.
Meanwhile the whole world's media runs some far fetched story of search and rescue without mentioning the last two pertinent points, not even a mention of a loss of tracking.
What's all that about?
Agreed, however the transponder detail is odd, to lose that along with comms would be a massive red flag as they are two seperate systems with the transponder itself in a seperate pressurised vessel, but the media only reported on the loss of comms.It probably took them two days before the Navy even looked for any information that could help and pass it up through to the brass where it was filtered as a matter of security before releasing it.

Someone else mentioned 22 or 23 dives? Do we have any real details?
So the 19-year-old boy was a “Mission Specialist who knew what he was getting into”? Yeah nahI think we are being trolled by this tourist shaming dickhead!
If they were all legally crew, or even Mission Specialists, how come 2 of them had to pay $250k each to go on the trip?
It doesn't even pass the work experience pub or strip club test.
Sounds like a good way to throw some more money at lawyers trying to prove that, so that the liable organisation(s) can claim that they did nothing wrong.
That it was all a terrible accident.
Titan passengers ‘knew what they were getting into’, says OceanGate co-founder

Guillermo Söhnlein, co-founder of OceanGate Expeditions, the company that owned and operated the craft, told the ABC that passengers on board the submersible would not “consider themselves tourists”.
“I don’t think any of them would consider them tourists. They were part of the crew. They were ‘Mission Specialists’, they were trained for it. And they were very well aware of the risks”.
“They knew what they were getting into. And yeah, and it’s just, it’s a sad thing that they died doing something that they were passionate about.”
Söhnlein, who co-founded and helmed the company, left it in 2013, before the doomed Titan submersible was developed. He retains a small stake in it.'

He probably specialised in promoting the trip to the next lot ofSo the 19-year-old boy was a “Mission Specialist”? Yeah nah
Probably helped boost the longevity of the emergency oxygen supplies in case they got lost in space again, or Octynapped by one of these majestic and very clever sea residents.What's a bit suspicious to me, is that in the real experience the tourists were given motion sickness tablets as prescribed by the doctor. It sent them to sleep.

Not exactly squillions of little pieces.
The tail cone wasn't watertight so it wouldn't have been subjected to pressure. It should be largely intact.
It looks to be the most important bit.
Interesting, from everything ive read there would be absolutely nothing left of human remains.'Presumed human remains' were discovered in wreckage of Titan sub
Human remains have reportedly been found in the wreckage of the Titan submersible on Wednesday.www.dailymail.co.uk
There would be a gelatin type paste available for DNA testing.Interesting, from everything ive read there would be absolutely nothing left of human remains.
Yeah but human remains sounds like they are taking bones etc.There would be a gelatin type paste available for DNA testing.
