    Ya well tragic shit happens all the time. We’re desensitized to it. This submarine is interesting and the circumstances are kind of like a movie. Of course media will cover it more. It’s what people are interested in.

      Yeah, the titanic situation involved submarines, suspense, radar, underwater drones, etc.

      The suspense was key, too. A race against the clock of oxygen running out. What happens if the drone finds them, but can’t free them? Stuff like that made it a very unique story.

      So of course people are more interested in that one.
