Comments by "SmallSpoonBrigade" (@SmallSpoonBrigade) on "Submarine implosion would’ve been ‘like crushing an egg’, says former NATO submarine developer" video.
Not really, this was all known ahead of time. What I would expect is for there to be some sort of treaty going forward to clarify who is responsible for regulating the activity and for future adventure tourists to demand that the vessels they take to these depths are properly rated by somebody that knows what they're doing and is independent of the company that built and operated the submersible. Conventional designs can be used for thousands of dives over decades when properly maintained and monitored. The Alvin has been in operation for nearly 60 years and has taken thousands of trips down to the depths without losing any crew to such a catastrophic failure. This sub was down there a fraction of 1% of those dives and had a catastrophic failure.
