I’d be pretty shocked if anyone is alive at this point. That sub was sketchy as hell.
They had up to 96 hours of air in there according to experts, so I think today is the final day they could be rescued with ideal conditions. Assuming they didn’t freak out in there and use more oxygen than necessary, which… yeah…
There’s also a possibility, however slim, that one or more passengers is dead, which, although morbid, would increase the amount of air available to each of the remaining passengers, I think?
I know this is kind of shitty of me, but at first, I didn’t care much. “Tragedies happen every day, and they knew what they were getting into,” I thought.
If anyone has survived this ordeal for so long, though, they deserve to survive. If this is true, I hope at least one person is rescued.
I hope this doesn’t turn into another Thresher situation. I saw a video a little while ago where a former submanirer goes over a recently released report about it and it’s nightmarish.
My understanding is that an aircraft picked it up and subsequent searches haven’t found anything. Hopefully this is a good sign but it doesn’t seem convincing that the sub is actually what was heard.
