The U.S. Coast Guard said Thursday a remote operated vehicle (ROV) discovered a "debris field" near the Titanic wreckage site where a submersible went missing.
Thankfully, if the water pressure is enough to crush the steel hull of a submarine, then you’d be obliterated before you could even think about it. That’s probably the best way to go in such a situation…

Surprisingly, the hull was primarily carbon fiber with some titanium.
There was enough pressure to crush an atomic submarine at 1/5 the depth
So they willingly went so far down into a no go depth that guarantees death just to see the Titanic? I don’t get it.
Titanic is a piece of history, and while I’m not willing to risk my life to see it with my own eyes, some are willing to.
It wasn’t even with their own eyes, the sub had no portholes. It was just an external camera and a screen inside the tube of death.Edit: I haven’t been paying close enough attention to the story apparently.
There was a porthole, it was one of the big safety concerns surrounding the submersible.
