Comments by "" (@jojowynne233) on "Why rescuing a deep sea sub in the depths of the ocean is nearly impossible | 60 Minutes Australia" video.

  1. I don’t think it is. This story explains the millions of dollars and expertise that was put into the sub that James went down in compared to the $250,000 it cost for the one that is missing and runs with a PlayStation or Xbox controller. You’ve all seen the videos by now surely. James said he knew it could be a one way trip and there was no hope of rescue if he got stuck down there. So the thumbnail was correct as it explained why there’s no hope of rescue, because there’s no craft that can make the journey.

  2. @@cancerascending33 My apologies you are correct on the ticket price. I watched a YT video that stuffed that up. The point is James Cameron was saying even back then when he was in a state of the art craft, nobody can rescue you at that depth. You can be rescued in space but not at that depth of the ocean. That’s why I agree with the thumbnail and don’t think it’s clickbait. I tried to look up the cost to build the craft, but it was difficult to find. It kept going to the cost of the tickets. It did come up several times that some parts were from stores and the sub was steered using a gaming console. Scary.

  3. @@cancerascending33 I’m with you, I’d be terrified. I saw one of the guy’s reading the waiver explaining about all that and death was a possibility etc. Then he says sign me up or similar. Pretty sad in retrospect 😞
