As an engineer, I appreciate his willingness to try an unconventional approach in the face of disaster. As a diver and casual bystander, I think he got his ass handed to him and should have left it to the pros.

My understanding is that he did leave it to the pros.

  By calling them pedophiles?

    Of course! What else would you call them after they saved several lives and told you that the little gadget you made up on the spot didn't work? There is literally no other choice!!!

> As an engineer, I appreciate his willingness to try an unconventional approach in the face of disaster. As an engineer I disagree. His proposal was pathetically devoid of any of the mission's basic requirements and feasibility analysis, and in essence boiled out to nothing more than a maketing ploy to promote his own public image. Pulling that stunt at the expense of a disaster that could have ended with a dozen deaths speaks volumes about his character, as does is smear campaign targeted at one of the divers which went to the extrene of Musk himself accusing him of being a pedophile.

  He showed himself to be the narcacist it's obvious he always was. To use the lives (and potential death) of children for PR is abhorant.
