Obviously, you're joking. But how hard could it be to get a Cat 395 excavator in there? Dig a little trench and bury it. Sounds like a weekend project to me.

Sounds like a weekend project to me. Has someone told the telecoms this?
- karmakurtisaani 10mo agoI think they could just drag a suitable hook behind a ship to carve out decent trench. Geez, how are we so much better at this than the actual engineers? Edit: to parent comment, I think people missed your joke.
- miningape 10mo agoI can't tell whether this is dumb or genius.
- mmh0000 10mo agoFun fact! Near the shore they actually do bury the cables with a plow[1] [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQVzU_YQ3IQ&t=50s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XQVzU_YQ3IQ&t=50s [2] [2] There are far better videos that show this, but I'm on mobile and not going to find it right now.
