I just think about how Stockton Rush would claim, with a straight face, that there was literally no safer place to be than in his submersible. And then I think about how modern society reveres the rich as being geniuses and great innovators. No doubt, some are smart, and innovation requires some risk. But Stockton Rush is proof that many of these rich people are just high on their own farts, and are dangerously stupid. He wasnt reinventing the wheel, instead he circumvented safety regulation and defied his peers in the field who warned him his design was doomed to fail.
