Ridiculous take that it’s OSHAs fault for not investigating. Why should they prioritize a small tourist operation over all the complaints made by larger factory and construction workers?
Also, would this really even be OSHA? Why not department of Transportation? Or the coast guard or something?
I don’t think OSHA or NTSB has a lot of standards surrounding submersibles. They’re probably focusing on more widespread technologies that affect more Americans.
When it comes to stuff like this, it’s dive at your own risk. Standards are written after the fact to prevent stifling of technological innovation. Today we have learned one new way to not build a sub.
(150 characters, counting…) What I think is the whole endeavor was frivolous in the first place, and any such disaster could have been avoided if embarking on one……….
I remember the James Cameron interview where he was just ripping this company and its founder Stockton Rush apart, telling stories about how he and multiple other divers told Stockton he was being fucking stupid in every way.
