"youre remembered for the rules you break"
oh boy was he ever
definitely wasnt wrong
@@82Catfish indeed
Did it occur to you that's exactly what he wanted?
there's a difference in breaking the rules of how stripes can flatter the female body and breaking the laws of physics and material science.
Man has the worst and most accurate quoteables in history
The OceanGate people failed for the same reason Enron did: they were smart enough to get around the rules but not wise enough to realize why the rules were there in the first place.
Just like Captain Smith ignored safety warnings on Titanic, so did Stockham Rush on the Titan
Rush knew the dangers involved but insisted on using his unproven design, I'm guessing because it was quite a bit lighter than steel- But as we found out also weaker than steel. Of course when lives are on the line you MUST go with a tried & true design. Period.
One doesn’t simply defy the laws of physics
Beautifully put
@@davinp Captain Smith did not ignore safety warnings. Learn some History.
"Submarines are statistically very safe" - Probably because of all those safety standards.... the ones he ignored.
A year later it is still mind boggling that they got as far as they did with fundamentally flawed decisions and logic. Carbon fiber as a material choice is the equivalent of a chocolate castle in a desert
My same exact though 😂
We've seen all the submarine movies . You don't go below the crush depth. The guage will label it red.
"Submarines are statistically very safe" - Said by a man who has no idea how many submariners have died in the past century.
"He's very intelligent"
Low Budget, Boeing and Macklemore. This was a truly a recipe for disaster.
"Safety is just pure waste" is one of the scariest phrases you could hear when planning to take a trip into the ocean.
Ocean trip? Hell I'd be worried if someone said that while cooking on a stove.
The full quote is generally reasonable. Yes, every action in life is a risk-reward analysis, and the only way to absolutely minimize risk is to never leave your bed. You take a risk taking a shower, you take a risk cooking, leaving the house, etc etc. All completely true, at some point safety is just pure waste. Where he failed was at the part of "breaking all the rules being just as safe." The goal should be more efficiently follow the idiot-proofing rules, not throw them out...
@@randomlynamed3353Handling scissors, also.
He’s such a typical billionaire lol
@@giin97 yeah, exactly my thought: how can a guy be that smart, and not even realize the faulitness in his own "as safe while breaking the rules" analogy...? driving a car, there is always a rest of risk, yes. but it is lowered BY FOLLOWING THE RULES!!!! how on earth do you want to make it "as safe while breaking" if FOLLOWING the rules IS THE THING that makes it less dangerous????????? PRINCETON FFS!!!!!!!
“Low budget submersible” is something you never want to hear when you’re about to get on a submersible.
Those ticket prices sure as heck weren't "low budget." Someone should have reinvested in his business. Could have had multi million dollar subs created by a total think tank of mental giant engineers which would have made his business safer and far more sustainable. And ultimately over time far more profitable.
The man indeed had those billion dollar clients, all the more to reinvest in his equipment.
I mean...a PS1 controller?
Low budget, submersible, Flyng vehicle, high speed vehicle.
HELL Motorcycles are low budged vehicles, and you know how dangetous they are.
Yep. Like budget condom but with the opposite effect - fewer people rather than more.
Yes Affordable, Low Budget, or Discount are words you never want in the same sentence with the word submarine.
Boeing disagrees
I love how he always brings up how statistically safe subs are but proudly ignores the rules that make them safe
And never mentioned that none go that deep
fr he's a businessman selling a product first and foremost wearing the skin of an engineer
Also fails to elaborate that commercial subs fall into two categories - shallow water for engineering or tourism, and deep water scientific, and they're worlds apart in terms of design, cost, and usage.
What he tried to do was bodge the first category design and build into the second category usage.
The bit that kinda baffles me a little is the passengers who never thought 'I wonder why this doesn't look anywhere near as substantial or over built as James Cameron's one?"
He conveniently leaves out the part where none of those subs were made of carbon fiber.
@duncanhamilton584 the entire premise of the company was to introduce deep sea tourism. To be profitable you have to take enough passengers. There are too many reasons to explain here why the traditional titanium sphere submersible cannot be built large enough to accommodate enough passengers.

@@kylemiller2920 Yeah i think its hilarious that if you say that theres a 0% of volcano deaths here so its fine if you jump into the volcano.
Subs are statistically the safest vehicles on earth WHEN YOU FOLLOW THE SAFETY REGULALATIONS 😂😂
I love he added the caveat of commercial Submarines which are few and far between. The Navies of the world have and still do bear the brunt of submarine fatalities.
They're statistically the safest because there is significantly less of them and experts control them.
Put as many subs as there are cars in the ocean and let regular men and women control them, and they'll be the most unsafe.
"Subs are statistically the safest vehicles on earth" ... but our sub is nothing like them - and breaks (not just the rules).
"So many rules and regulations" paired with "no sub fatalities in years" really starts to make sense in hindsight.
@@Blxz It truly amazes me when people see an activity with low rates of injury or death while also having a lot of regulations and rather than assume the regulations keep them safe, they assume the regulations must be unnecessary.
You'd think billionaires would be able to afford to go on actual certified submarines.

Good enough joke, I guess, but lots of tombstones don't always oversee a buried corpse; including the cremated deceased

@@KingStr0ng and that's the problem education not gatekeeping is what we need to focus on.
@@adamsmiths3016 It's not gatekeeping to stop someone from risking the lives of multiple people. That's called justice.
I don't think removing the fence was the issue. The issue was they never really tested the submersible. They should have made it do like 100+ downs then ups, then cut the thing in half and examined it. Engineers at the company wanted to do that, but were told it would be too expensive. There's nothing wrong with innovating, they just weren't checking their work. If you look at like a spaceX rocket, they're doing crazy new things, and destructively test vehicles to find out what to fix next. Oceangate could have done something similar and created a truly innovative vehicle. I'm sure the final thing would have been quite a bit more reinforced than the Titan, but it would have been safer. Oh well.

Man...
Bro really said “at some point safety is a pure waste” when dealing with 1000s lbs of pressure 😂
Doesn't mean that's not a true statement though. There is definitely a point of diminishing returns when it comes to safety measures. There is also a point where the "safety gains" are so minuscule relative to the cost increase that it becomes pure waste. This is true in just about any industry one can think of.
Bro didn't meet the point of safety bringing diminishing returns, he's at the point of no returns from the bottom of the ocean.
OSHA gets in the way of progress.
@@Withlovefrominterentwhat are you talking about. In what sector would this be true ? Safety rules always stem from previous faults. That’s why the rules were developed. Dude broke the first rule of engineering thinking he knew more than he actually did. Saying your an expert in aerospace is the most ridiculous things I’ve ever heard.

@@nmlss-r9 " what! nobody brought spare batteries"

All the jokes aside, Stockton did ask one interesting question: "Could a carbon fibre hull work for depth diving."
From an engineering and scientific perspective, this is an interesting question. It's just unfortunate that Rush and his team of cavalier cowboys, instead of a competent team of engineers and carbon fibre experts, took a swing at it.
From what I've read, the carbon fibre winding that was used for the Titan hull was significantly weakened because of the single direction of the winding - it would have been stronger in a diamond pattern but that would have significantly increased cost (Stockton clearly was pennypinching)
Hopefully some professionals take up this challenge and answer this question in the future
@@scroopynooperz9051 Not an expert afaik carbon fibre is really bad for this, no matter the shape it doesn't have the qualities that make metal good for subs.
It's already an amazing material for other uses, leave it for those and make subs with titanium which is already good for this.

I hate that he never even got to learn his lesson. He went to the grave thinking he was smarter than everyone else, and he dragged the rest of the people in that sub down with him.
It’s more likely than not that he was aware that the hull was failing in the moments before he died. There was a hill failure alarm that detected damage. He had at least a few moments of terror and seeing the terror on the face of his innocent victims. It would have sounded crazy, like thousands of glass shards smashing. Loud and terrifying.

Hard to believe this guy had an engineering degree. The level of disregard for data and professional practices is stunning.
I'm just a chemical engineer but even I know that carbon fiber works great for tensile loads but is weak in terms of compression and shear stress a sub would experience underwater. It's great for gas bottles, maybe it's good for spacecraft but it's not supposed to go into a sumbarine. Also I don't get the problem with weight to buoancy ratio he speaks of. Why even care? Some styrofoam floaters cost nothing. You could even make a submarine using steel. It would be extremelely thick, heavy and big but it's possible.
@@alexmin4752 Styrofoam would deform too much.
Also, the bigger problem with carbon fibers is that it's not an homogeneous material and it's very hard to test its aging and imperfection accurately.
probably paid for it instead of earning it
The competency crisis will accelerate
A degree isn't proof of intelligence or competence, it's just proof that some place gave you a degree, which usually means just remembering the list of things they want you to remember long enough to regurgitate answers for a test.

@@andyjasso3050 They used the 5 minute gorilla glue from Lowe’s
@@andyjasso3050 Not only that, but it's useless when it comes to compression stress. Carbon fiber is unbelievably durable, but for tensile strength only.
@@WobblesandBeanjust look at the new cars with carbon wheels, they always crack under heavy compression
Also, from my understanding, the deal with carbon fiber is that it's not as easy to find flaws or cracks in the haul unlike steel.
On steel hauls they can use X-ray sensors as well as other methods to find micro cracks withIN the steel itself, cracks that might not be visible on the surface but is present within the metal itself.
I also heard that basically the very first dive is pretty much the strongest the haul is ever going to be (with microfiber), but after repeated dives ANY micro cracks in the microfiber haul are _WAY_ more dangerous to the structure because of the characteristics of MF.
Micro cracks aren't wanted at all, but if they showed up in steel then at least the structure is still very strong. In micro fiber it's critical.

And even for free time activities, going to concerts is dangerous. Skydiving is dangerous. Hiking is dangerous. Going on a vacation is dangerous. There's a lot of things we do that have a little bit of elevated risk, something you can't account for, or something that would be exceedingly expensive to account for (e.g. we could make cars almost perfectly safe if we limit the speeds to 15mph everywhere! But that's not acceptable in most people's eyes, right?)
But obviously Rush miscalculated the risk of his submarine, ironically with the one part that really needed to be safe, that he knew needed to be safe.

Audio damage control system be like: (if you hear strong cracks it is severely damaged and is about to sink, quite simple!)
Warning: maximum depth reached. Hull damage imminent.
its the grim reaper instead
That acoustic monitoring system was the most absurd safety feature they have. The moment even a single fibre broke, it means the strenght has been execeeded and shell is done for. On its max depth where it really matters, there is no way back from that single failing strand.
I bet the real story is they met a torpedo
The three strikes rule is crazy…I fly helicopters for a living, if ONE thing is out of the ordinary I don’t fly until that’s fixed.
..and that commands common sense. Hard to understand. Sounds to me it was not a rare occursion, that one or two things were out of the ordinary with the titan...and therefore they came up with the three strikes rule.

This is the best comments section EVER.
"this is so safe! why are there so many regulations?" is such a wild take to have
Like was he mentally ill? Suffering from psychosis?
He said this after around 80 people died in a Argentinian submarine a couple years ago. I served on submarines for around 8 years and I agree that they are safer than most people would think. But the kicker is when something goes any bit wrong on a sub, it goes very wrong.
I was thinking the same, and it was a military sub non the less!
44 dead, not 80
yeah the second I saw that (I had never seen that speech before) I understood just how deep his hubris went. Subs are used mainly by militaries, with trained people who follow strict rules. Not by the common man every day. Rhe fact he thought crash/casualty rates were comparable between the most common means of transportation versus a fucking submarine. is just ignorance. It's like people who think the A10 has a hogh Blue on Blue rate. Is it high? Yes, it is. Now compare it to planes that routinely called in to help soldiers with munitions within a hundred feet of soldiers. It's not comparable.
And you know, all those pesky regulations that Rush ignored might have been there for a reason, regulations are written in blood, the fact that they're safe is because of how strict the rules for them are.
As argentine i can tell you our submarine was imploded because of the disrepair and corruption all these sailors died sadly
"There has been x dives with no accidents and it's the safest form of transport. Therefore we won't bother with safety, compliance or certification and the law of averages will ensure we are safe"
Rush didn't think each of those dives strained his janky carbon fiber hull actually increasing the risk for each dive

Right? Like the sun isn’t just gonna turn off, it’ll expand into a red giant and engulf the entire planet
Whether or not there will even be any Earth left after the sun swells up is up for debate.
@@nexaentertainment2764and for anyone who cares - as a hobby chemist/potter, I suspect the end game will be a ... big, glazed pot. Green/brown, semi transparent on the edges, and very sharp. Kind of like how they described Mandalore on that show except more dark. Here's some numbers.
We are 92M miles away, from the sun, which could become around 100M miles in diameter when it becomes a red giant. bit of a margin of error, but let's assume it will be 92 ish, ie the surface of the red giant will be very close to earth's orbit.
the red giants we know about, range between 4500-8500F at surface temp. Let's assume our sun will be the lower range of that.
The Earth has some pure molten metals in the center, but outside, its full of refractory oxides - alumina, silica, and trace metal oxides. The boiling point temperature for all of those is quite high, around 4000-6000F. If we stay below that temperature, we will essentially have a very long (millions of years) kiln firing of the entire planet, the ingredients of which .. add up to terracotta clay.
When you fire clay "as intended" it is fully opaque, but when you overfire it, it turns into a glassy obsidian substance (you can do this with an acetylene torch around 6000F).
If the clay doesn't have too much alumina and iron, it will be transparent, but the iron gives it a green hue (thanks to boron), blue (thanks to titanium and phosphorus) or just brown (oxygen.)

The media trying to portray this guy as a genius and an inspiration when he was the one who caused his own death and dragged 4 other people with him. He should be placed in every health and safety advisory as a reminder.
Rush has contributed greatly to the diving community. Now others know what not to do. He gave it his all as well as four of his friends for the pursuit of knowledge and shortcut engineering that will come in handy for generations of engineers to come. If I ever build a submersible I will definitely take a look see at Rushes designs so I will be better informed on what mistakes to not make. A lot of people will be appreciative for his contribution to the field. Example: We have learned to not take over inflated egos down to that depth because it leads to all kinds of problems.
@@charlesmiller8107Rush’s “contribution” is the equivalent of putting square wheels on cars, against the advice of everyone else, and “discovering” that they indeed don’t work as well as round ones.
The media loves billionaires and ESPECIALLY pseudo-futurist tech bro billionaires who promise all the cool looking stuff we see in science fiction. Rarely do they actually do the due diligence of questioning or verifying the claims of these billionaires. They just uncritically glaze them parroting whatever nonsense they put out because it _sounds_ cool. Look at Elon Musk for heaven’s sake! A total snake oil fraud who fancies himself as an engineer but profits off of the designs and work of other actually qualified people. What happens when he personally has a lot of say on a project? Look no further than twitter or the cyber truck.
@@Zarastro54 but now we can with proof say that square wheels don't work
@@charlesmiller8107 The *real* contribution of his will be *how* he at all managed to build this thing legally thanks to a lot of loopholes. Several knowledgeable people voiced their concern and were worried *before* the disaster but to no avail. First and most foremost he operated a deep-sea submersible which had *not* been independently tested in the rigorous safety tests proper deep-sea submersibles are and that *alone* should have made his operation *illegal* .
From what I've read he bypassed all that by having the passengers sign a waiver that they "knew" they entered an "experimental design". Not sure it said it had not gone through the regular tests required for classification but even so I doubt Stockton Rush's customers actually read the entire waiver or gave much thought about what they actually signed (a legal pretext freeing Stockton Rush from any responsibility of their deaths).
Another thing: In order to bypass regulations he arbitrarily made his passengers "mission specialists" so they in essence became trained researches overnight. *What a joke* .
We live in a world where you have to do your homework. Be it buying a new car, house, booking a trip, investing in X, Y or Z... and especially so when you embark on a particularly dangerous deep sea dive.
Stockton Rush should *never* have gotten away with it. So his real contribution is all the questions and all analyzing which will reveal how this was allowed to happen at all in 2023.
Rush is legitimately responsible for the negligent homicide of those passengers. Him being smug while saying “submarines are the safest vehicles on the planet” and then deciding that all of these safety measures are unnecessary is proof that he’s nowhere near as smart as he thought he was. Almost every story about the Titanic focuses on the hubris of man and the proclamation that it’s “unsinkable.” Not once did he appreciate the irony of his own ego.
They *were* the safest vehicles on the planet until he came along.
its pretty ironic to claim they were the safest when he himself disregards the very safety measures that made these subs the safest
Pretty sure he lost any intelligent credibility when he said "When The Sun extinguishes, there will still be Hydrothermal vents".
Correct.
Well said.
21:56 was a Freudian slip he said ''but'' and then carried on speaking they KNEW it wasn't safe
the fact that the safety checklist was managed in an excel sheet rather than in an automated sensor driven system is incredible
Right?! And what they showed on screen was obviously just an ad-hoc list of issues they had identified (including some guy's workbench being cluttered...), rather than any sort of systematic procedure. Excel is a terrible tool for either task, anyway.

"because when the sun extinguishes there will still be hydrothermal vents"
When the sun extinguishes there will be no Earth, ma boy
Actually, there could be. If no outside factors change it, the Sun will swallow Earth but then it's too small to go supernova. So it will go into a blue dwarf and finally go out. The Earth is a big ball of magma with a thin crust. The Sun will likely extinguish all life and melt the rock but once it burns off all helium the outside of Earth could cool off and become a rock again.
Or at least no sun to keep the core hot, everything would freeze🤷🏾
The sun is not what keeps earth's core hot lol
The scientific consensus is that the Sun will expand so as to envelop the Earth. The Sun will be very sparse at this point and my understanding is that it will slowly vaporize the Earth, though it will take a long time.
what about gravity, would it work the same way after the sun extinguishes? its density would change... I'm pretty sure we won't be able to just keep going.... what the hell, to each day its trouble.

"If we mess it up, there's not a lot of recovery". He got that part right.
