Cameron's taken risks in subs that took them to more than 2x the depth and back.

The list of DSVs taking people well past the depth of the Titanic and came back is actually fairly long: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deep-submergence_vehicle#Deepe... Maybe having at least someone familiar with those as an SME would save lives and resource, because OceanGate's going to be sued into oblivion

I was chatting with an engineering student (not finished the Bachelors), and he said that the carbon fibre weave from OceanGate's own video made a 2nd year mistake for not weaving diagonally.

I was chatting with a Masters student in Aerospace, and he said CF is great for tension, sucks for compression. Their use is compression, and in essence had a plastic hull going down to 4000m.

It's not just dangerous things is dangerous. OceanGate flew in the face of basics in engineering, fucked around and found out. If only their CEO didn't flaunt regulations and peddled his shit to naive people and expose them to unnecessary risk and taking 4 people with him.
