How and why has this become utterly hilarious and almost a celebration of their deaths? Not just in here, but everywhere. Weird as fuck. I’m having some time off the internet 

 

It's okay, they were above an arbitrary wealth limit.

On average 5 people die each day on UK roads and 84 seriously injured. 5 rich nobs in a stupid boat thing off to look at the Titanic is a bit funny. Suffocating over days would be a bit mean. being crushed to the size of a peanut in a millisecond is a bit funny esp costing hundreds of thousands. I would not have gone if they had paid me that. See Darwin awards.

I don't think people are taking the piss because of the wealth, it's because of the self inflicted nature of it, like these lads on scrambler bikes who get splattered. 

 

If your plane crashes and it's a 747 being flown by a professional pilot, I've got complete sympathy for you.

 

If you decide to build your own plane out of a microwave and an Arari joystick, and everyone who knows anything about flying tells you its dangerous, and your general response is "fuck you dickheads, it's your lack of vision that's been holding back the airline industry for decades, make way for my visionary, daredevil shit." 

 

Then you crash.

 

I claim my sixth amendment right to think you're a tit.

 

 As Jairz said, the only one who deserves sympathy here is the lad.

None of us want them to have died. It's the usual racist GB brigade trying to level hypocrisy when the reality is not a single decent human would have wanted them to die if we could do anything about it but if it so much as smudged their new trainers they'd not bat an eye-lid.

Being trapped, will the rescuers get to them in time?

 

Yeah, completely different 

 

Ha. One was working in a mine, the other wanted to have a look at a boat.

 

It's like comparing a pizza delivery driver and someone doing the Isle of Man TT.
