Chefs Severed Fingers Killed 22 Men

The idea of being in a chamber on a sinking platform, being unable to simply open the hatch. Having to increase the chamber pressure because that is how you predict you could be rescued, from the sea floor. Nightmare fuel.

I think one of the worst part of it all is that it started because the captain cared about the well being of a crew member. Time and again we see the result of callous disregard for the others - this time it was the opposite.

I've never considered the possibility of the ship carrying a pressurized saturation diver team sinking, let alone catching fire.

And not to mention what the operators must have felt having to abandon those divers on a burning ship. Brutal

[@ald1144]

Not to marginalize losing a couple fingertips, but given the circumstances (and doing my best to ignore the benefit of hindsight) it seemed like an insane amount of risk to evacuate the cook. In the military the highest priority for evacuation is life, limb, or eyesight: if any of those are at risk, more risks will indeed be taken to get somebody to medical care. Short of that, they might have to just suck it up for a while.

[@colinlieberman]

exactly! I'm about halfway in, and it's like the slices of swiss cheese are lining up in slowmo over an injury that's pretty treatable without specialized equipment or training. I feel like there's got to be more to it than "the tips of two fingers", because in those weather conditions, with all the damaged equipment, "wrap it up and keep it elevated, we'll deal with it when the weather clears" feels like the obvious option, and the safest for everyone involved

[@limbeboy7]

It was dumb. Why try to park a 300 ft ship in the middle of the ocean in stormy conditions? They dont evwn do that at a port by land. Also they dont have any life boats that they could've sent? Why risk 300 ft ship when we can send multiple life boat attempts

[@bookcat123]

I’m still stuck on “if you bump the corner of this platform with hundreds of people on it, it explodes” - like yes, they were risking collision, but collision at low speed doesn’t have to be catastrophic and I’m guessing maybe they were trying to save the fingers which is time critical? Too big a risk, in hindsight, obviously. But when they were doing the calculations were they weighing the risk of “ships may be forced together by waves and take damage, could be expensive” or did they realize “ships may turn into instant fireball”?

[@EM.1]

It wasn’t even two fingers only two fingertips. The injury can be treated on location? YES It’s life threatening, might be contagious or spread uncontrollably? NO Weather is too dangerous for the helo? YES Sea conditions are terrible and rescue by sea can’t be done safely? YES If the first question has yes as answer all the others questions for different opinions are not to made. Clean the injury stop the bleeding and apply whatever first aid kit tool is more appropriate. For a minimum injury they have overdone like it was a life threatening situation with multiple people injured or possible casualties.

Most mariners would have reacted to slicing off the tips of 2 fingers by covering the wounds with a clean rag or paper towel then wrapping the fingers with gaffer tape & carrying on with their job!!! Most chefs don't have feeling in their finger tips anyway from burning them so often so would also just cover the wound, put on a disposable glove & finish food prep!! For 2 grown men in positions of authority to consider that a medivac was required for such minor injuries is ridiculous. I can only assume the guy was screaming his head off & making a real menace of himself, his ship mates just wanting rid of him as the response is so overkill for the injury. As for the person commenting about chefs using knives at sea being too dangerous, how do you think the centuries of mariners that came before us survived, they definitely didn't have freezers for ready meals when the charted the globe, they set off with live pigs, chickens in crates for fresh meat, even sometimes a cow for milk at the start of the voyage, then meat when they ran out if fodder for it, & none of them were medivaced for slicing off finger tips 😂😂😂

[@ritishify]

I think there are what we could call "tubes" with a drill in them, extracting oil from down under the sea bed, in this case they said they were 12km. deep (10:35). When they ruptured it with their ship, gas and oil started spraying upwards to, I suppose flames of at least 10 meters high. Given the amount of gas this probably lasted a long time, enough for the fire to eventually find flammable components of the ship and the platform. The oil probably also accumulated on the ship and platform, basically just waiting to be ignited. But yeah I thought that too.

[@truescotsman4103]

@@ritishify the twin towers were full of fuel and soaked with jet fuel. The element nobody talks about is the draft effect. Once you have a raging fire you have heat rising. You a draft at the bottom where air has to rush in and replace what's drawn upward by the heat draft. That inrush of air creates a furnace effect and amplifies the rate the fuel is consumed and increases the heat in the fire. Fire can weaken steel beams if it's hot enough. The furnace effect is how heat is heated for forging red hot.

[@ritishify]

@@truescotsman4103 It's true that I hadn't given that aspect too much of a thought but it makes sense, I know other details about the specific structure that made it possible for the towers to collapse like that.

[@JustDatBoi]

⁠@@truescotsman4103Urban Moving Systems agrees

[@FlorenceSlugcat]

You dont need anywhere near melting point to cause a structural collapse. Fire can melt steel under the right conditions. Draft, size, and energetic combustible materials are factors. Remember that smelting metals down is basically just a fire melting metal (nowadays other methods are sometimes used such as electric arc furnaces, but fire providing the heat is still used for steel). Thats what a blast furnace is for. Proper fuel allows for much higher temperatures. Oil burning increases temperature much more than paper or wood. Additionally, you dont need to melt metal to collapse a structure. Metals behave more softly the hotter it is. By warming up a metal, it takes significantly less force to bend or buckle the metal. Several hundreds of degrees above room tempera, steel will be much weaker than normally is, and so it will not be able to support the weight of the structure.
