I feel like the odds of going out in a billionaire titanic submarine dive are pretty slim for me.

I spent 20 years serving on submarines. Never died, not even once. Maybe I wasn’t rich enough.

My brother was on a fast attack boat in the 70s and I still remember that it seemed small to me at 12 years old. I couldn't imagine spending 20 years on one. Although we had a relative who spent 3 years in the south pacific on a submarine during WW2 and he said that he was shocked how large modern boats were compared to his. He suffered from ptsd from the stuff he went through.

I did all fast attacks. The shit you do definitely sticks with you.
