Bill Price, a retired California businessman, says that while he was a 'crew' member doing a dive in 2021, OceanGate employees shared a few nightmare-inducing analogies with those aboard the vessel.
Apparently, employees have been recorded explaining to customers that should they get crushed by pressure in the ocean, death would be instantaneous. They compared it to 'a Coke can' getting 'smashed with a sledgehammer.'
Mr Price also recalls that another analogy the staff said that an implosion would be like 'an elephant standing on one foot, with 100 more elephants on top of it.'
