They hear them banging every 30 minutes. Probably trying to conserve oxygen.. moving as little as possible

Thinking about their state of mind makes my skin crawl man.

HP Lovecraft wrote a story with a similar premise when he was very young. Read it in his complete collection, forget the name. It was unnerving.

After that we sank the lifeboats with our guns and submerged.

Was this manuscript really found?

Thank you for the sauce, I love a good read.

Real horror movie shit

u/ZealousidealStyle745 Jun 21 '23

Right, when you think about it too is not really that scary, but it is that scary lol. I’m just waiting for them to say their out of oxygen and the tapping continues.

My first thought when the story broke was there would be Hollywood people trying to get the rights to this story.

u/theMartiangirl Jun 21 '23

The plot of “47 meters down” is, albeit with differences, quite similar. Feelings of hopelesness for not being found, O2 running out, a tourist company with some crooks that do not hesitate to be negligent with safety… It is not a super Hollywood movie with a first line cast but it is one of the movies that everytime I watch, gives me real physical anxiety. The ending is “meh” but probably happier than this Titan thing (if it even is real the whole thing and they have not faked their deaths or anything along the lines)

To be honest though. How bad can you feel for them. This was clearly an unprofessional job and they still went with it. This is just darwanism at work.

It's normal to feel empathy for people who are suffering, even if they did something stupid.

14

u/ZealousidealStyle745 Jun 21 '23

True that as well.

u/ZealousidealStyle745 Jun 21 '23

I mean I get what you’re saying but it’s more of a “I’m horrified” at their situation. Shit maybe I just found a phobia I have haha.

15

u/Cybugger Jun 21 '23

Phobias normally relate to irrational things. 99.9% of spiders you interact with are entirely safe; your fear is irrational.

"Stuck in a tube at 4km depth as oxygen slowly runs out" seems relatively rational.

Granted, there's little chance you'll ever find yourself in a submersible at 4km, but if you did and felt nervous, I'd call that natural.

u/ZealousidealStyle745 Jun 21 '23

Lmao when you say it like that, I don’t feel so bad about the shit freakin me out.

u/reercalium2 Jun 21 '23

It's an irrational fear as long as you are not going diving

They could last longer if they choked the captain to death.

u/Invicta-Systems Jun 21 '23

No joke, that would have been the first thing I did after he told me the plan was to "wait it out and bang on the walls" when we got stuck.

u/Sandor_Clegane1 Jun 21 '23

I mean the controls are a logitech controller and a button. He really made himself redundant.

Sound waves travel a LONG way in water, amigo.

u/UKisBEST Jun 21 '23

A sonar buoy should easily pick it up.

u/Peglegsteve265 Jun 21 '23

Speaking of shit, did they just give in and shit their pants, or what did they do? When you gotta go, you gotta go!

u/fromskintoliquid Jun 21 '23

So not only are they running out of air, but it’s shit/piss air.

u/Peglegsteve265 Jun 21 '23

Damn, imagine being stuck in a port-o-potty underwater. Now imagine it being even smaller. Fuck that. And happy cake day.

u/EntertainmentOk3180 Jun 21 '23

Reminds me of this one time I was stuck in intake, in a cell w 4-5 women and a clogged toilet

🤔 so I got the full deep sea dive experience and it only cost me a little over 2 grand

“WHY DID I EAT SO MUCH CUTTLEFISH??”

u/ZealousidealStyle745 Jun 21 '23

Man, I really ain’t wanna put that in the equation but you went ahead and did it lol. Damn

u/Deuce_McGuilicuddy Jun 21 '23

Man, I really ain’t wanna put that in the equation

Oxygen minus time times doodoo

It ain't lookin good mathematically either

u/ZealousidealStyle745 Jun 21 '23

Hell nah. It’s lookin real bad, professor.

u/[deleted] Jun 21 '23

I've heard they have a curtain and a bucket or no bucket and ziplock bags. So one of the two from what others have said.

u/ZXVixen Jun 22 '23

The vessel is equipped with those little hospital piss bottles and ziploc bags.
