LOL what 'bodies'? In the fast jet world, we are told to tell our partners not to ask for anything like your wedding ring if you pile in. Sandbags in the coffin time, your body is nothing bit tiny bits of matter and everything else is crushed and mangled

3800 metres is FUCKEN deep ( as the article states this is how deep the Titanic sunk )
Tomorrow on my inevitable morning stroll I’m going to try and measure out 3.8km and try and imagine just how deep it is.
It’s about 2000 guys my height standing on top of each other…….
I was thinking about this today and the mindset of anyone who would do something like this. At what stage do these obscenely wealthy people sit back and just say enough is enough and realise they’ve “clocked” life ? When are they satisfied ? Is buying a sports team or a helicopter or a super yacht not enough ? Gold plated toilets ? Is snorting cocaine out of a supermodels arsehole every night not enough ?
Why do they have to have these “thrills” that are so out of reach for the rest of us ?
It’s really bizarre to me.

I can't say I've ever wanted to visit it, but it can be a more eclectic mix of wealth than the current crew.
From 2017:
Renata Rojas has longed to visit the wreck of the Titanic since she was a girl, years before the ill-fated passenger liner was discovered on the seabed three decades ago.
Next year, the 49-year-old New York banker and diving enthusiast should finally realize her dream, and she is shelling out more than $105,000 for the privilege.
“I don’t own an apartment. I don’t own a car. I haven’t gone to Everest yet. All of my savings have been going towards my dream, which is going to the Titanic,” said Rojas, who last tried to visit the wreck in a 2012 centennial expedition that was canceled.
“I’ve made a lot of sacrifices over time.”
