This guy is great, he really breaks things down as if he knows them like the back of his hand.

@longislandhillbilly4780 Ай бұрын

Excellent work in reviewing the section of the hearing, that reveals how irresponsible Ocean Gate was, in their operations! I love how “as matter as factly” and clearly, Mr. Lahey explains how submersibles should be done.

Rush was clearly suffering from Narcisstic Personality Disorder. He displayed every sign and symptom.

And he was a bully, it's clear from reports of many former employees that witnessed his outbursts and gaslighting.

@@albin2232 I worked as a substance use disorder therapist for 10 years and dealt with a lot of people with personality disorders. I believe that he is a psychopath. Beyond my professional and academic experiences, I also lived with multiple people with APD over the past 30 years. He definitely shows symptoms of a high functioning person on the antisocial personality disorder spectrum, especially considering that he put his own life at risk multiple times, in fact he was the test subject the first time that the submersible was brought beneath the surface 😭 nuts. Very sad For everybody involved, including him, even though he seems like a narcissistic pompous jeric, he had a lot of people that cared about him and loved him, and he no doubt was smart and didn't have sadistic qualities like so many of the people on this psychopath expect from that we hear about in the news. Most high functioning people on the APD spectrum are psychopathic and non-sadistic, they excel in rolls such as surgeons, lawyers and judges, pilots, scientists, other professions that require a high level of detachment and precision. People on the APD spectrum are very intelligent in some arenas, and deficient in others, very similar to those on the autism spectrum, like myself. I have a couple best friends that are on the APD spectrum come out one is a sociopath and cannot find any level of success long-term, the other is a psychopath and has everybody in his life fooled and although he's not sadistic he does cheat on his partner, have sex addictions, he lies to me about it even though I've known him for over 30 years and I told they don't care that he cheats on her 😂 he acts like it would be some moral conundrum if I knew the truth So he continues to lie. He makes well over six figures a year even though he's never graduated from high school, he's just worked hard his whole life and cuz he's very charming he can get his way to the top. He's not that smart but he's really intelligent and social manipulation and engineering. And he's extremely handsome, he's 6'6 and very striking. He's almost 50 years old and he looks like he's 30 something, he's athletic. But he does skirt the law when possible and lose by his own sort of morals and ethics. He claims to feel guilt yet he never changes his behaviors, and he only says that he feels guilt when we talk about the times that we have had s3x with one another And he's talking about doing it again 😂. Okay I better stop fawning over him. That psychopaths are interesting bunch. I dated a sociopath before who tried to take my life before and I ended up having to do a bunch of self-defense crap, get cameras, etc. I lived with a sociopath a decade ago who did some horrible stuff after I kick them out of my place. I'd still been hanging out with him in carpooling with him, I was picking him up on my way to work and then dropping him off because we both lived in West Seattle. I had no idea that he had a teenager being held hostage at his apartment! He had kidnapped some kid, some 15-year-old and had her inside his apartment and I don't even want to say the rest but he did 17 years in prison for it. He had her in there for like 6 months and never once told me about it, he would never let me inside the apartment and I thought the whole thing was weird but I didn't think that he would ever do something like that! I knew he was an alcoholic but I had no idea he was a straight up psychopath 😭 That was before I became a therapist.

This was needed to cut through all the nonsense and white noise, Nick. I do destest the modern world for its stupidity, and failure to look where it should. Even in fiction, the subs had backup plans and had a timetable to call for help on the surface if communication was lost etc. This was all laid out before they even got wet! It is not hard to see the difference between idiocy and professionalism. Quality lasts.

Interesting that Ocean Gate snubbed all regulations and classifications instituted by the Coast Guard, but then turns around and calls them first for help after the Titan lost communications. Another case of taxpayers footing the bill for ineptitude.

@Bluecedor Ай бұрын

@@desertrat7973Ya. All these move-fast-and-flour-all-rules types like Rush cynically eschew following standards and practices for personal gain. They pursue their dangerous activities assuming they’ll be saved because it will look bad if the Coast Guard just lets them die. So they use that as a fallback plan, and usually continue getting away with it. We live in these times because of regulatory capture by massive private equity, and a mindset that lack of oversight means you can just do whatever you want and ask forgiveness later “cuz entrepreneur”. These times let all the most powerful get away with murder - sometimes literally - and then try to frighten us that if we lift a finger against them, they’ll take their companies and our jobs somewhere else.

I really enjoyed listening to Patrick’s testimony. He cuts through the BS that Stockton Rush represented for their industry. His testimony was much needed. Stockton created a lot of damage for their industry. It was great that he could set the record straight. It is nice to see a professional that holds safety of others at utmost importance. He truly has a passion for what he has done. Stockton was reckless & didn’t care about others. He had an irrational obsession & he thought he was the smartest guy in the world. He instilled fear by intimidation & fired anyone that disagreed with him.

As a social psychologist, I think the Titanic should be left alone on the sea bed; it is a grave sight. In Pearl Harbor lies the wreckage of the Arizona; to this day, it still holds the remains of the sailors who were trapped and drowned as the result of Imperial Japan’s sneak attack on the American pacific fleet. And just like the Titanic, the Arizona is a gravesite. In fact, it’s officially a national cemetery. No one would ever dream of someone going down to check out the site just for ‘fun.’ In reality, you pay as little as $1 to just see the Arizona memorial because it’s a cemetery. No one in America would EVER even think of conducting diving/submersible tours AND sure as heck WOULD NEVER be so vile and brazen as to charge so much as a nickel to go down there. Likewise the Titanic is a cemetery despite the fact that the sea long ago claimed the innocent victims of another rich, entitled, white man. Leave the Titanic alone; you can have far greater views of it in the documentary programs John Cameron has done.

@katiechristensen6386 Ай бұрын

I do see your point, and I'm not trying to argue but I am interested in whether you believe people should not visit Auschwitz or Birkenau? Those aren't just mass grave sites, but sites of mass murder. Personally, I think visiting those sites is extremely important because it helps people realise the scale of what happened there but perhaps you disagree? Generally I'm not sure how I feel about people going to the Titanic.

@@katiechristensen6386I think the core point of the OP’s comment isn’t so much that we should leave the dead to lie, it is that the Titanic requires significant cost and danger to go see, even when everything is above board and legal. The Titanic is this thing that just will not leave the public psyche for some reason, and people are wanting to kinda turn it into something of a theme park ride. That’s not an issue that the USS Arizona or the death camps in Europe have, and they don’t require an entire industry’s effort to take even 1 person down to. Plus, there are Titanic museums in several states, TN being one of them. These museums rather exhaustively go over the minutiae and try to mimic aspects of the ship like the staircase. I tend to agree with the OP: If someone has an itch they simply cannot scratch for tragedies at sea, there are plenty of more access wrecks. If someone for some reason won’t be satiated by a dive of 600-1000’, become a marine research scientist and have at it, get scuba certified, something.

Someone always has to be the person to bring race into every situation To follow your logic mobsy should be allowed to visit cemeteries.. How about the non white billionaire who bought into the Titan delusion because he wanted to see the Titanic and got his son killed in the process. Titan imploded because white people bad. Good lord.

@Jath2112 Ай бұрын

For anyone wanting to see the glaring difference between this guys operation and Oceangate, I would highly recommend viewing the short documentary about The Limiting Factor... easily located on youtube. After I watched his team develop a real submersible...my existing feelings about the titan turned to horror. I watched that yesterday...after over a year of binging Titan content. I didn't think my feelings could go any further... it makes Stockton look like ...a kid pretending. Also it is incredible in it's own right. This guy is the real deal... Stockton had issues.

@Robert-d5l Ай бұрын

It seems reasonable to record acoustics and analyze the recording after your dive is over. But it seems odd to monitor them in real time. The captain reports ' sounds coming from aft section '. But there's nothing you can do about the sounds. Who cares where they are coming from?. It's as if they thought it would be some kind of warning system. It's not logical to monitor stress sounds during a dive, you just record them.

The Oarfish lives at great depths but can be spotted when feeding on or near the surface and if it washes ashore in a storm. They are almost invisible because of their polished silver skin. Others put the Mariana Trench at over 11.000m to the floor, Nick. The Wiki number given is actual the record set by the Trieste in 1960, when it reached the floor of the Challenger Deep. Important last minute witness with the navigation information - arcane.

Some rich benefactor/adventurer is paying Patrick Lahey to build an innovative new sun to take them both to the Titanic. "......... to demonstrate to people around the globe that you can build a revolutionary, first-of-its-kind sub and dive it safely and successfully to great depths,” he added. The custom sub, which Mr. Connor plans to call “The Explorer - Return to the Titanic".....etc, etc. I don't know, good idea or not ?? Felt there was a bit of company and PR promotion going on in his evidence tbh, though clearly his boats seem safer.

Stockton could have solved the 2-person occupancy problem by simply having two separate dives in one day. You get four people down in two days instead of one. Have a tape recording of P.H. like it's a Disneyland ride lmao

That video of the tail faring on the seabed. I've just noticed you can see a sizeable piece of camouflage patterned fabric stuck in it and hanging out. Got a horrible feeling it was someone's jacket that got forced up there in the implosion. Can't think why there'd be fabric in there otherwise. It's nothing gory and they've rightly been careful not to show that, but it's personal and a bit shocking..

I cant be certain what you are looking at but could it be a mesh bag full of Styrofoam cups? It is super common to send down Styrofoam cups that people have drawn pictures on and written messages etc. I definitely see a mesh bag full of cups in the tail section.

Ms Wilby's experiences working for Oceangate demonstrates what many people have observed about Stockton Rush's insistence upon having extremely young people, even students, working for him. Their youth and inexperience made them easier for Rush and his older personnel to bully into compliance or silence.

It doesn’t sound like one to me. It’s just a relatively small operation that was run by a petulant tyrant who thought he knew better than all the actual experts he routinely consulted but eventually scoffed at and derided. Rush was all about cost-cutting, barebones staffing…all the same ish that happens at a million retail and service joints every day. Except Rush was innovative!…in that he thought that kind of operation was perfectly adequate when selling hobby trips to 20,000 leagues under the sea, and in a tube of his own unlettered design.
