Wasn’t that an implosion and therefore instantaneous?

I think I read recently that they had dropped their weights something like 45 minutes before the implosion. Seemingly indicating that they knew something was wrong and were trying to resurface. 🤔

Either way, not enough for a full Shrek movie. 🤷🏼‍♀️ (Sorry if it's too soon)

They knew something was wrong for 45 entire minutes? Every new piece of information about that submersible awakens fresh nightmares, thank you.

Maybe it did ominous cracking noises during those 45 minutes

Very likely.

It was much less than that, only a few seconds.

Yes, but that just increased the speed at which their IQ was dropping.
