What the Titan sub still represents is so multi-layered, so complicated in its complexity.
So much so that I don't think anyone can really put into detail or in any way catalog everything about it.
As a, kind of as an analyst, so to speak, an observer, I am taken aback, or amazed, I should say, not taken aback, by how the story does not go away.
And how people are incredibly just fixated on this.
The recovery team, the stories of the recovery team are just horrible.
We'll talk about this and how this...
How this fits into the mosaic of what's going on right now.

This week, it was really something to see the leader of the search team, I guess, not even the recovery team, but the search team, That discovered the remains of the doomed, imploded Titan submersible, not submarine.
And during the course, this Ed Cassano was moved to tears.
He said that after the, it was June 18th, think about it, after the disappearance, His company was brought in for the search and rescue.
And he said that we were always conscious of the crew of the Titan.
Plain and simple, we were focused on rescue.
And they deployed, apparently, what is a remote, an ROV, a remotely operated vehicle.
The Odysseus 6K.
And it reached the Wreckage, roughly 12,500 feet underwater within 90 minutes.
And they knew right away that any hope of this was gone.
Shortly after they said they were arriving on the seafloor, they discovered the debris.
And that's it.
And it's just...
It's incredible.
And what everyone is saying is that this was doomed.
It was a disaster ready to happen, and the recovery team is devastated by the horror.
Whenever you see something like that, whenever you put things together, even though you're in the business of supposedly doing it, it doesn't remove the humanity.
It asks you, it makes you think.
It really does.
You know, when we talk about life and what is life and God and that which is presented to us, we really have to ask ourselves,
when we, in essence, throw it away through what amounts to foolhardy lunacy Especially because now they're saying it was a carbon filament.
There were three sources of problems.
Carbon filament, titanium, and plexiglass or whatever.
You can't have multiple materials and a porthole provides the perfect pressure point and disaster locus for these types of problems.
In fact, they said one of the reasons why you don't see a submarine With a porthole is because of this!
A porthole that doesn't even work.
You can't see.
They had cameras on the side.
And when you...
I don't know how many times you've seen the David Pogue thing, but when you see the CEO's rather cavalier attitude, like, yeah, well, you know, you...
Look!
If you're going to have to worry about the rules and regulations, you're going to have to, you know, it slows you down.
And it was this, it was ghoulish, the horrible, terrible, brutal irony, irony of what he is saying proves to be almost their doom.
It was a prescription for their doom.
And everybody says this was a disaster waiting to happen.
Absolutely waiting.
Waiting for that moment.
Waiting to happen.
And it's something that is so incredible and so...
I don't know what the word is.
And I'm still trying to figure out in my own way this notion of how this notion of how people were so Shocked by this.
Still.
People still.
There is an endless litany of news and stories about basically something which is, for all practical purposes, over with.
But it's a combination of a lot of thoughts.
Daring do is one thing.
Thrill seekers.
Are you sure about that?
Thrill seekers.
And people who...
How you can believe.
It's why people do drugs.
It's why people do a lot of things.
When you walk into something and you say, oh, this is interesting.
Well, these people must know what they're doing because, after all, they've done this before.
Do you know that the Ocean Gate site is still up?
Or was yesterday.
Announcing.
In fact, let me just always to make sure.
Announcing.
Trips for next year.
It's the most incredible Ocean Gate Expedition.
You're invited to dive with us.
Yep, there it is.
Upcoming events.
Upcoming expeditions.
OceanGateExpeditions.com I thought you have got Azor's Expedition.
Explore hydrothermal vents.
Now, is this, could this be, in essence, just Oversight?
Somebody didn't think to take it down?
Or could there be something this detached from reality?
Something this devoid of thought?
This fascinates me.
Who are the people who are involved in this?
I don't know.
These are the things.
In any event, in any event, in any event.
We're not going to see the end of this.
And watch what happens.
And here's the deal.
And this is the most important.
And this is a very, very libertarian question, dare I say.
We know somebody who went and, after a period of apparently depression, went and killed herself.
Went to a foreign country and paid for some euthanasia proceeding and killed herself.
Basically, committed suicide.
And I'm not arguing right or wrong.
And people said, well, it's her right, and you know what, I would tend to agree.
If you want to do something that is, for all practical purposes, just crazy, scary, whatever it is, being an astronaut, oh no, no, that's heroic.
Okay, maybe.
Putting people in harm's way through war, circus performers, Boxers.
Going into being a boxer.
Going into being a professional football player today.
Let me tell you something.
The number of people that you're going to see, the number of quarterbacks and players that are going to be drooling in their oatmeal one day, you're going to be shocked.
But the question is, should they be able to do this?
Should they be able to do this?
And should they be able to exercise this notion called assumption of risk?
And I say yes.
Absolutely.
If that's what you want to do with your life or what remains of your life, have at it.
But be prepared for the consequences.
And, you know, minor kids, that's a whole other story too.
You're going to be seeing calls now for the regulation of these, whether the government should come in.
It's a very simple question.
This is your life.
I believe you are able to do with it what you want.
And there are many, many people who say that their life is fulfilled by doing things which are, for all practical purposes, dangerous.
I jumped out of an airplane twice.
Tandem once and AFF level one.
The second one, and I'm telling you, those vibes, that adrenaline rush...
Is incomprehensible.
Once I know I could feel like that, it forever changes.
It's like the way people describe drugs.
I mean, not drugs, but acid and things like that.
So I don't think you should ever have the government be able to say, no, you can't do this.
But look at how people who have to clean up after you're daring to, look how they respond.
We'll be talking more about this.
