      In one article from last year, the reporter said that someone has mortgaged their house to go on the trip. It’s not even rich folks. It’s fucking idiots.

      Still a horrible death, being trapped in a can with no way out.

      Well, I expected a bit more than an oversized soda can controlled by a knock-off Playstation controller when I heard “sub that can reach the Titanic”.
