Five people paid $250,000 each to go in a Submersible and view the Titanic at the bottom of the ocean... we have since learned that all five aboard have died as the submersible imploded under the pressure of the ocean a mere hour and forty five minutes after decending (should have taken a total of 9 hours).
I see a lot of people online joking around about this, even after learning that everyone has died... but I'm not going to sink to that level.
Any thoughts? Anything to add?

If I could have voted tragic AND they knew the risks I would. At least their death was immediate and they didn't slowly suffocate. It is interesting how much attention was paid to these 5 wealthy people, and the enormous amount of resources that went into trying to save them. Every day in Ukraine, far more people die who are just as worthy of living, if not more worthy. And so long as they are willing to keep fighting and dying to defend their democracy from tyranny, we should happily keep supplying them with anything they need.
