Do you know the only scientifically confirmed avian species to live in the ocean depths is the Wavebird?

 

[Cyberpunkd]

you cant think of this with a mindset of a peasant.
Coke and hookers are easy when you are a billionaire. Can't brag them to your other billionaire friends. Hence, you'd want to seek new thrills, something no one else can easily do.

Ok, fair point. But...Titanic? This is big dick energy, going down to shit shipwreck that sunk 100 years ago?

Isn't it better to grab 3 Victoria's Secret angels and have an orgy? Or even pay to be lifted to Mount Everest in your BIG and TOUGH alpine suit?

Do these wavebirds have an added rumble feature?

In a scientific nomenclature cluster fuck, I believe only the Mad Cat Wavebird, ironically named, is capable of rapid vibration. Maybe.

As are many of the Wavebirds natural prey - humans. It's rumored some have a vestigial memory card slot leftover from the Paleolithic era.

This guy is planning to take a Triton manufactured sub down to the wreck of the Titanic, so he should be relatively safe and do it with ease.
I think people haven't looked up Triton the sub company. Unlike Oceangate, Triton builds some of the most sophisticated subs on the planet, that are capable of going to the deepest parts of the oceans like the Mariana trench and do it multiple times.

Triton built the the DSV Limiting Factor, which has reached all the deepest points on the planet. It might be the most sophisticated deep sea submersible eve built. These guys know their stuff.

It's crazy to think that James Cameron made 33 trips to the Titanic wreckage, considering how dangerous it is to submerge so deep under water. Especially in the light of the recent accident.

 

[AJUMP23]

I wonder if they can get insurance?

 

[Laptop1991]

Didn't this go wrong before!, what is it with these billionaires, you'd think they could find better safer things to do lol.

 

[nush]

Isn't it better to grab 3 Victoria's Secret angels and have an orgy?

They already did that, now they are looking for more unique challenges.

 

[BlackTron]

That looks like a journey only Mad Catz could handle

When you're at 12,000 feet, actually more reliable than an Elite controller

But its not. Complex yes. Dangerous no. Oceangate where idiots...thats why there dead.

 

[M1chl]

Nah, Mussolini isn't worth bringing up. Dude was a loser even as dictator.

As a joke obviously, due to him being looser. But you might not be European, so you might be out of loop of our country shit talking

I guess it’s something I’ll never be able to experience, but it seems that they manage to get tired of it

Take Putin. Could be on a yacht with an harem of young Russian blondes and fucking all day every day. But noooo, start a war and now probably never gonna be able to go international. Blows my mind.

 

[Mr Hyde]

But its not. Complex yes. Dangerous no. Oceangate where idiots...thats why there dead.

To say it's not dangerous is pretty ignorant. Of course it's dangerous diving to such depths. You need to deal with a lot of safety precautions and do a lot of research to even try to attempt it.

I think I'm with newtypepilot on this one. Guess you can't brag about your coke and hookers when all the other billionares are doing the same.

Or maybe they just grew broed of it.

If you had money, would you visit The Louvre? The Pyramids? Machu Pichu?


Similar thing here, just far more dangerous and exorbitantly more expensive. If I had the money though? 100% I would do it. There is seeing it via videos and photos and live images, and then there is seeing it with your own eyes.

 

[Outlier]

Even playboys get tired of the game, eventually.

I just think he should do it himself and not drag others to their potential end, with him.

I mean what's he hoping to find, other than an eroded failed English boat.

According to Cameron the science of deep summersible reached a point along time ago where the risks of a collapsed hull are non existent. The hull are supposed to be made of titanium and manufactured to be perfect spheres capable of depths in far excess of the pressures they will be diving at. Yes there is some danger of systems going bad but the science of preventing what happened to oceangate has reached a point where its not an issue.

[AREYOUOKAY?]

This guy won't make the same mistake as them. Sparing no expenses for the trip.

It’s not dangerous if you put importance on safety. Cameron is well know in deep diving circles for his expertise in ocean diving, he is not just next rich guy treating this as a hobby.

If I was allergic to coke I would shoot myself in the head with penne.

On topic: he should spend 3 billion to make a submersible out of coke and hookers.

I am German. We don't really tend to shit talk other countries' dictators.

I’d fill the submersible with coke and hookers, the feds won’t catch me down there.

Why’s that?

 

[Hudo]

Why’s that?

It's still fun to shit talk our own dictators

If they press Turbo inside the submarine, they will travel back in time to the night the Titanic sank.

 

[FeralEcho]

Life must be so miserable for these wealthy people...Why do something like this when there's so much else you could do,unless you already did everything else.

Is that the blonde sister from seven heaven?

 

[AeonGaidenRaiden]

It literally makes more sense to me you climb mount everest than go see the alge covered wreck of a ship through a tiny window when you will have way better footage anywhere else. Yes, experience but you cant touch it you cant go inside it you just float around it with a torchlight and call it a day. For a premium price. Think its cheaper for Bezos to send you into the stratosphere.

I agree.

Ever since Epstein Island was closed, some billionaires are having trouble finding fun things to do.

 

[Toots]

Sneak peek of the sub prototype.
They added little wrench arms for emergency repairs, and floaters because it looks cute.

That's nebula I think.

 

[GymWolf]

That's nebula I think.

Really?

That's not beverly mitchell...

Edit: oh the actress of the gif is nebula, not the blonde chick from seven heaven, got it.

You can make her whoever you want to be. Even a goat in the movie the Witch.

Where was this dude during Oceangate?

Where was this dude during Oceangate?

Quietly taking notes when he found out how much people would pay to go on the death sub.

They'll upgrade to the dualsense.

only for the battery to run out when they are down on the sea floor

Triton Submarines has a perfect safety record.

You can buy a Triton 36000/2 that has a depth rating of 36,000 feet. The Titanic is only 12.5k.

Honestly, this isn't really that big of a deal.
