    Even if I had a stupid amount of money, there’s no way in hell I would pay someone to stuff me inside what seems to be an over-sized propane tank, then send me to depths where the water pressure is so extreme it will literally crush you.

    Just…no.

      I particularly like the part where this specific submersible can’t ever be opened from the inside, because it gets bolted shut from outside.

          You definitely wouldn’t. But what about if you made it to the surface in an emergency? I’d probably want to open it at that point. Someone mentioned how the sub reminds them of Apollo 1 and I tend to agree. So many poor choices were made!
