Now this is an ironic way to go

I've been following this one closely since I heard about it this morning. Crazy that 100+ years later, the Titanic might take another 5 lives.

This is the equivalent of a terrorist group flying a plane into a sight-seeing  bus full of eager tourists that just so happened to be driving by the new world trade center building in NYC.

There aren't many more terrifying ways to die than being trapped at the bottom of the ocean in a little box like that, knowing you've got two days or so of oxygen.

I wonder what they're doing now? What would you do in their situation?

I hope a miracle happens.

Lost communication and sub didn't come to the surface. I'm guessing they are all dead and were killed instantly in an implosion of the sub.

Why would it just implode?

Why would it just implode?

Probably from an unnoticed flaw in the hull which caused it to implode from extreme pressure.

Controversial influencer Andrew Tate has been charged in Romania with rape, human trafficking and forming an organised crime group to sexually exploit women.

His brother Tristan and two associates also face charges. All have denied the allegations.

Obviously innocent until proven guilty but I did find it a bit strange that he lives in Romania. I can't think of a single reason why anyone with his wealth would want to live there. But if you asked me to think of countries associated with sex trafficking, it would be top of the list. Could be totally innocent but that does seem odd.

I know next to nothing about this guy BTW, other than he's a controversial person who has been accused of all sorts.

I don't know much about Romania and I usually think of Thailand when I think of sexpats from Western nations but I found this video of him talking about why he moved to Romania...

Looks like wreckage from the sub has been found.

RIP.

Only two of them were billionaires and one of them was a teenage student?

But either way a shit thing to say especially after your problem with TR and his military post.

Nah I don't care about rich people dying that don't contribute to society and just hoard all their wealth. I do feel bad for the teenage kid though
 He didn't even wanna go but he was only doing it for his dad. Sure it's sad that there was a lost of lives but honestly they knew what they were doing. They signed waivers saying that there was a possibility of death.

Also you can't compare the two scenarios so I don't know why you brought that up. The TR stuff.
