    This wasn’t a normal submarine, though. It was a plastic death tube that was totally uncertified and bound to fail eventually.

    You could argue buy beware, but you could argue this is negligent and the tourists should be protected from their own stupidity too.

      Sure, and if it’s in your own personal risk tolerance, you should be well within your rights to do so.

      The kind of reactionary hand wringing on this issue is telling about how conservative the world has become.
