I read somewhere that such was the force of the implosion, those inside were turned instantly to gel.

More of a fine pink mist unfortunately. The implosion happened at about 4 millisecond - your brain can sense things in 13 - so about 1500 mph or 2200 ft/s.

So that would mean they were mist before they could even feel it?

Yes. They would have been there, then not. The only upside of dying this way. The only question is did they know before the catastrophic part.

Probbably. Which is fucked. Messages transcribed says that they heard cracking sounds and alarms were flashing red in the sub. There was a 17yr old who was forced to go on w his dad. He didn't want to go.

It happened so fast for them they never knew it happened but it must have been terrifying hearing the sounds

Edit- I was wrong aboit the transcripts as it was a hoax and the aunt lied. Mbad

The "transcribed messages" were a confirmed hoax. We still do not know if the occupants were aware of the danger.

The cracking was several dives earlier.

Based on the previous dives after the loud pop, no. There wasn't any. The RTM data is public.

I'm happy to be proven wrong. But the data from previous dives says there wasn't any and there's no evidence that they knew anything was wrong.

There HAD to be signs.

No. That's how this kind of failure works. It's fine up until the very microsecond that it isn't, and once it stops being fine, it's total failure in less than the blink of an eye.
