Ned Beatty's line is priceless.

Subway’s current signage. Swiss Army Sub. I have no problem diving into one of those.

It seems like it was more analogous to a steady increase in pressure on the hill that eventually equalized when the hull ruptured.

But then everyone is an authority on carbon fibre submarines up these days…

And here I thought it was a submersible that was exploring the ocean at depths up to 7000 feet…

I was never in the Horse and Cow but I've heard some stories from a guy who was on the USS Parche back in the day.

This is the original Horse and Cow in Vallejo when Mare Island was open.

Just thinking out loud here, but "Martin told SPANISH news outlet Nius..."

It could read weird because it's been translated from Spanish to English or even English to Spanish and then back to English. I don't know that for sure, but seems like a possibility. That might explain some of the oddities of the statement.
