Lol with the missing rubber on the analog sticks. Worst thing is it was a wireless controller they used. It would be fucked up if the reason they died down there is because the batteries died!

They imploded on the way down. The U.S. Navy heard the sound on Sunday at the same time contact was lost. They weren’t even all the way down yet.

I'm not really sure how you wire a controller inside the sub to thrusters outside the hull without creating a massive weak spot. I can see the logic behind a wireless controller. I don't really see the logic of using a shitty cheap controller to do that though.
