    Thing must have been crushed in half a second under that kind of pressure, people inside probably literally didn’t know what hit them, one moment you’re alive, and the other you’re not. Likely happened hours after they submerged, that glass porthole was definitely not going to withstand that kind of pressure for very long.

      At that depth, a crush death would be near instantaneous just like you said. They would have been liquified so quickly, their nerves wouldn’t even have the time to even send a pain signal to the brain. Let alone the brain being able to process any stimuli of what happened.

      Morbidly, that is the most humane death they could have had, as the other options were dying of extreme hypothermia from the water temperature, hypoxia from running out of air, or dehydration if they somehow managed to survive a day or two longer.

        Technically, they were evaporated before liquifying. The incoming water does so with so much force and speed that the air in the boat retains its heat but is compressed extremely fast, so the temperature rises sharply until ignition. Someone in the posted sub did the math, about 1100 degrees celsius were reached. So they went poof like in a diesel engine a few micro seconds before the water mushed everything together.

        But yeah, too fast to feel or notice anything.

        Hypoxia is actually not a bad way to go. It’s hypercapnia the one that is a terrible thing to die of.

          Unexpected hypoxia might not be to bad in a case where a person is unconscious such as carbon monoxide poisoning or cabin pressure loss in a plane, but if you’re slowly losing air and are awake, aware, and panicking the entire time… That death would be psychologically horrific as you’re well aware that you’re dying and there is nothing you can do.

            The process of reaching hypoxia would be indeed terrifying, but once you are there and oxygen begins to run out things become much more peaceful, and not only for the sensation in itself but because one simply begins losing the ability to think of the fact that they are going to die and about everything that surrounds them. Under those circumstances, one simply dies unaware of their own death.
