When I was going through my nuclear training in the Navy, we were told of the USS Thresher and Scorpion -the two nuclear subs America has lost at sea. The subs likely reached crush depth, at which point the hull imploded, which caused a subsequent ignition of the atmosphere aboard the sub due to the diesel effect. Everyone onboard probably died instantly, so at least they didn't suffer (although they probably knew their fate for a few minutes before the sub eventually imploded). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted June 21, 2023 Share Posted June 21, 2023 It’s strange to me that billionaires want to either be strapped to a giant weight and dropped into the ocean or strapped to a giant rocket and shot into space.

CastlevaniaNut18 Posted June 22, 2023 Share Posted June 22, 2023 I mean, I don’t like the idea of billionaires and think they shouldn’t exist, but this is a horror I really wouldn’t wish on any human being. I don’t really feel a need to joke about it. It’s kinda cringe. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
