once you've made/inherited a few billion, you gotta have something to be cooler than your new friends right? i herd one of the guys on the sub has been down into the Marianas trench.
these guys are dead. they might be banging on something, who knows, but they are dead. the notion that someone is going to be able to go down there and drag them up, is basically impossible. a rescue mission would be just as dangerous as the original mission was, if not more so. and there would be no way in the coming to hours to connect to them, and drag them up anyway. and remember, you gotta drag them up slow, or they will explode on the way up (the bends). its like a 5-6 hour trip up alone.
