For those who are unaware: A couple billionaires, a pilot, and one of the billionaires’ son are currently stuck inside an extremely tiny sub a couple thousand meters under the sea (inside of the sub with the guys above).

They were supposed to dive down to the titanic, but lost connection about halfway down. They’ve been missing for the past 48 hours, and have 2 days until the oxygen in the sub runs out. Do you think they’ll make it?

    From what I’ve heard by experts, no. That chance is now extremely slim. Basically they then need to be found on the water surface. It’s a complex logistical challenge to lift a submersible at these incredible depth. I think certainly not done over a day or two even working around the clock.

    And what’s worse now is they’ve apparently heard banging noises which indicates they are submerged. :-(
