The Titanic

An expert on tonight’s Dan Walker show said about the tragedy even a very small hole puncturing the vessel would fire a jet of water in at such huge pressure it would kill you.

I used to visit a place called TMC in Tytherington which cuts all kinds of materials accurately by Waterjet at 87000 PSI (means nowt to me) including metals and alloys for the Aerospace Industry, very high safety standards for obvious reasons.

Those high pressure water jet cutters are incredible. It’s astonishing what water can do.

I’ve seen videos on them cutting massive lumps of solid rock.
 
It is sad that a young lad has died at the whims of his father, but I just don't get how if they sealed themselves in a windowless pipe and was gonna look at the remaihs through a streamed link not with their own eyes did they not
a)not bother and jist send a drone dowm to see exactly the same streamed images
b) the boat captain didn't just blag them and lower them into the ocean enpugh to feel lile they were deep underwater then send a drone and let them think they were captqin nemo while safely bobbin around on a winch completely unaware.

Seems a senseless waste just to watch a tv screened camera show on a whim, as Cameron has said the whole thing was doomed from the start

Could it be that you don't climb Everest just for the view at the top? The getting there is the real buzz

It does have a window to view it through. Well, it did

There is a plexiglass window at the front made from acryllic, which is likely to have shrunk under the intense pressure, causing the implosion. It was brought up during the construction process that it would not be capable of deep sea exploration but was apparently ignored with a "it'll be fine" attitude.
