A tragic accident has left five people presumed dead after a submersible voyage to the wreckage of the Titanic. OceanGate, the company behind the ill-fated voyage, was co-founded by Stockton Rush, one of the five people on board the submersible.
The voyage was initially met with shock and concern, but as more details emerged, the tragedy has been met with crass humor and memes mocking the victims.
In an interview, OceanGate co-founder, Chris Söhnlein, expressed his support for the voyage. However, as more details emerged, including the wealth of those on board, the known concerns with the Titan submersible and comments from the CEO that seemed to disregard safety, empathy gave way to crass humor.
The five people on board the submersible, including OceanGate’s CEO, faced a dwindling oxygen supply and a harsh and unforgiving environment deep underwater. The massive search for the sub uncovered debris, but the fate of the five people on board remains unknown.
The tragedy has sparked a wave of shock and concern, but also crass humor and memes mocking the victims. The families of the five people on board the submersible are still awaiting news of their fate.
