13000 ft down in a home built submersible just sounds like a bad idea.
In theory, there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice, there is.

The owner/pilot sounds like a real toolbag. Fired an employee for pointing out safety issues with the sub. Read an interview with him where he pretty much claimed safety regulations were stupid.

Yeah, he lists the passengers as "mission specialists".
There's not even any seats in that thing. They're barefoot sitting on the floor.

“Everything else can fail. Your thrusters can go, your lights can go — you’re still going to be safe,”
Stockton Rush, CEO of Oceangate, currently on board the sub testing weather that statement is true.
Also Oceangate sounds like Watergate don't it?
I am not causing global warming, I am just trying to hold off a impending Ice Age!

I've been watching it closely, a lot of artillery just showed up in form of ROV's, 5 or 6 of them that can all go even deeper than the Titanic.

As land creatures humans have “learned the hard way” a vast amount from the sea. Humans have “learned the hard way” a vast amount from mining deep down into the earth. But there is an old folk saying: There is no education in the second kick of a mule. The first many kicks of the mule here were all the avoidable mistakes in the original sinking of the Titanic. I can see taking risks and spending of funds of diving deep to explore “Black Smokers” in the deep sea or looking for nodules of needed minerals on deep sea floors, or looking for the sunken Czarist Russian Navy warship with a payroll of Gold coins, but this “adventure tourism” is consuming tax dollars for rescue and luring “clicks” for advertising $ in a bad way.
