Burial at sea is a time honored tradition which might need to be embraced here. Agreed. |

Hope they do find bodies for the relatives to bury and I hate to say it, but there are marine creatures on the sea bed, which keep it clean.  They will need to be pretty quick with the recovery. At that pressure there probably isn't anything left of them to bury. It's like crushing a tin can.  |

It's like crushing a tin can. water compresses less than 1% at that depth, and humans are mostly water. if we were made of styrofoam, then yes, there would be nothing left. |

The older guys had lived their lives, what I keep thinking about is the young man of 19 the was terrified but went to please his father. To me that was the greatest tragedy of all. It sounds like it was a rumor that the 19 year old did not want to go - his mother did an interview that said he took her ticket because he really wanted to go and solve a rubric cube on the floor of the ocean. So - that doesn’t make it okay that the guy died- but he was not forced to go. That poor Mom. |
