    Bolted from the outside with no way to open from the inside? That is absolutely horrifying.

    Not safe enough it would seem. There’s also rumours of shenanigans with the safety approval sign offs.

    I can’t for the life of me understand why anyone would go inside that thing. It’s nothing like the craft Cameron went down in. This looked to be a bare bones metal tube with no seats.

      I can’t find it now, but I saw a clip of the CEO being asked about the cobbled together nature of it. He laughed it off saying only the hull was important, and anything else could fail and it would still be safe.

      I wonder what he’s thinking now…
