the end sections of the hull, after being machined down to length, left these pieces behind, which show evidence of delamination. on the right, they put a bright light behind it and you can see it all the way through. very bad!

@tubetime I’ve seen disposable drug smuggling boats wash up on the coast that are more resilient than this. @tubetime am thisclose to a panic attack (no, am not joking) reading this. this was a death sentence from the very beginning. when Walter Benjamin said that capitalism is a death cult, this is exactly what he meant. @tubetime "Fake it 'til you make it"-mentality when it comes to extreme conditions. @tubetime summary of the report: this is what happens when you let billionaires/techbros design and/or build stuff that should keep lives secure and safe. @tubetime Sheesh, this feels more like a movie prop than something intended to go to extreme ocean depths. We've all done hacky things but not in such unforgivable environments with risk of life for....tourism. @tubetime You are doing an important service by posting all this information. Thank you! |
the flooring material (they used HDPE, high density polyethylene) was definitely not flameproof. what if some of that messy wiring shorted out and set fire to the floor? just everything about this vehicle was shoddy.
