That's my sister Chunnie (Chun) in the interview. She made great points.

[@audreydaleski1067]

Relied on sellers expertise. Yes, things could happen. Things catastrophic never really happen. Sign this. It's just a formality.

[@Illsayanything]

I don’t think anything that costs $250,000 is going to become a “trend.” Wow. 🤦‍♂️

[@RolandDuke]

All the major news networks should fund “vacations” like this, cuz they sure love to report on it 24/7. Also we got 2 rich aholes in deep, cold and watery graves and I’d say that’s a start.

[@brentoniverson1020]

They're exploring for resources $$$$$$$. They're not just sight seeing.

[@edwardschwenk3100]

This is the first thing that actually surprises me about this cluster f*vk. That It took them this long to bring in a lawyer to interview.🤔

[@audreydaleski1067]

Cost of the recovery of a pod they may not find.

[@audreydaleski1067]

Inherently dangerous is right.

Is this channel going to stop with all the updates when the oxygen "countdown timer" on screen reaches 0HR: 0MIN: 0SEC ???

[@johnnybgoode8104]

They will start a new counter - Estimated time without oxygen 0:00:00

[@nt178]

don't doubt natures way.

[@audreydaleski1067]

Not iron clad.

[@kingstop5495]

It's some point you have to ask yourself is it really worth the taxpayers money to look for these people who knew if they were taking a risk? I mean the taxpayers are paying for the fuel the man-hours Everything that is going on right the government's are not funding any of this

[@martagoodrich4912]

Too much money Not enough sense Bored of daily shenanigans I’ll go and dive I think

[@mslady1230]

Close this business down! More people are going to die! That submarine should have had a tracking device, able to track and give the EXACT LOCATION of those aboard. This was a suicide mission and it’s just sad. The greed for money, over another human being’s safety is just selfish beyond belief! Those people shouldn’t have been on that THING in the first place!
