Stockton Rush, founder of the company that owns the missing submersible craft that was on its way to view the Titanic wreckage, has said safety is “pure waste.”
This is going to sound heartless as hell, but I hope they bill the company and the estates of the passengers for the costs of the rescue effort.
This whole premise, going in a submersible to visit the Titanic, is such a completely unnecessary risk to take, that I have trouble having any sympathy for anyone involved.
It’s not like they were going to have any more of an experience than they would via a submersible rover. They can’t get out of the sub and walk around and touch things. The most they could do is look out a porthole and get a view no different than they’d get from a remote camera. This was just a completely pointless waste by people with more money then sense.
