I mean, you guys are wrong.

Adventurer: "someone who seeks dangerous or exciting experiences"

Just because they picked expensive, dangerous activities doesn't make them less of an adventurer.

If I lick every insect that I see, I'm an adventurer. I don't need to climb a fucking mountain to complete a dangerous or exciting activity.

and licking insects is free, bitches, so get out there and stop complaining you're bored.

Wow, also made the sub from material that is effectively invisible to sonar. Just seen it described as "looking like a Colombian narco sub"

rowing an ocean with your bare hands ( and a boat obviously )

Are you a casual oars-exclusionist?

Yeah sure, but if there's no negligence what are they being sued for in the first place?

That was my point.

Sorry man trapped in a small metal tube on the ocean floor, we decided you aren't an adventurer.

It's important to be sure about the nature of the man you didn't know who has probably died in an accident.

If I lick every insect that I see, I'm an adventurer

please, we prefer to call ourselves gourmands tyvm

For a truly adventurous life, try a visit to Australia and an attempt to lick every species of insect and snake present. You will get an entry in the Guinness Book of Records, or more probably the Darwin Awards.

If you're just licking them are you really a gourmand?

Because you weren’t bolted into the buffet hall from the outside.

And you don’t have to shit behind a curtain mere metres from strangers.

This would be my version of a 50 Shades pleasure room

The Guardian says it could be bobbing around on the surface, waiting to be found. But it doesn't even have a satellite beacon to tell people where it is. And the passengers would still have the same time limit before suffocation because there's no way to let air in. This is the best case scenario. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/jun/20/missing-titanic-submarine-best-and-worst-case-scenarios

If the prospect of being lost adrift at sea makes the reader uncomfortable, it would be unwise to google ghost ships.

All this talk about safety protocols is the sort of red tape and government over-regulation that prevents millionaires from becoming billionaires.

Finding it will be a nightmare, I recommend watching this on how they search on a moving seas to understand the complexity of it (it got captioned)

Thanks for sharing, quite informative on several subjects: TIL the worlds militaries have hydrophones submerged around the world to detect vessels.

This is all very well, but should I be buying or selling shares in the companies owned by the current submariners?

hydrophones submerged around the world to detect vessels

They've been doing that since the 50s https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SOSUS. But they don't talk about it much. If one side is routinely able to detect the other's submarines they wouldn't want anyone to know. It would make the submarines pretty much useless and something much better would have to be developed.

They're probably at an all time low...

I knew they bugged undersea cables and marine passes, but the thought of a sole listening device in an undersea trench out in the middle of the Atlantic never really occurred to me.

If those chaps are floating on the surface, they’re bound to get seasick as hell with the wave movement and no static visual reference points.

Not looking good for the company even if they’re found ok.
