For those who are unaware: A couple billionaires, a pilot, and one of the billionaires’ son are currently stuck inside an extremely tiny sub a couple thousand meters under the sea (inside of the sub with the guys above).
They were supposed to dive down to the titanic, but lost connection about halfway down. They’ve been missing for the past 48 hours, and have 2 days until the oxygen in the sub runs out. Do you think they’ll make it?
This guy risk-rewards.
This is going to come up in engineering safety classes for years. If the CEO says safety is a pure waste, you need to leave that job.
He has a slightly valid point, that at some extent safety can be overdone and you’re wasting time and money. However… repeated instances without a disaster (short of say, decades worth) don’t prove safety precautions are unnecessary, but one catastrophe can prove the the opposite.
