I’m just thinking what if someone has to use the bathroom? It’s like no place to go.

You guys can call me heartless or whatever you want to, but why would anybody get on a submersible operated by a video game controller? Dumb rich folks. Nobody should have to suffer like that but damn, have some smarts.

If it was me, I’d say fuck it and open the door so I could die real quick.

How long were they supposed to be down there?

I didn’t know there was a toilet. Well, there’s 5 people onboard, CG. How long do you think it’d take to fill up a toilet that small since Sunday? C’mon now.

The hatch is bolted on from the outside. They can't open it from the inside.

From what I read, the crew/passengers were instructed not to eat prior to the departure so as to reduce the need to go. If they're not eating or drinking much, then I imagine there's not much output. On the other hand, the fear and distress that could set in could loosen the bowels.
Regardless of if it was a foolish decision to go on an experimental sub ride to a nearly unrescuable depth of the ocean, I do feel bad for the amount of regret they must feel, especially the father who brought his son with him. I don't wish that sort of ultimate despair on anyone.

Well, I hope they are rescued soon. If it was your loved ones down there, even if you felt they made a not so smart decision to go down there, you’d still want them rescued, Phrozen.

Hope they find them — but you wouldn’t see my ass down there. Nope.
