After looking at the photos of the submarine that’s missing, I have no clue how people who are as rich and successful as the ones who were on board could pay such insane amounts of money to board that tiny tin-can of a submarine and go 12,500 feet under the sea without having a sense of, “You know what? This probably isn’t the greatest idea ever. I probably shouldn’t do this.” It boggles my mind.
