Szymanski himself acknowledges the dark humor that has emerged but wrestles with the ethical dilemma of profiting from a tragedy. In a heartfelt tweet, he expressed his conflicting emotions, emphasizing the profound horror of real people facing a situation he had imagined. While he appreciates humor as a coping method, he firmly believes that no one should endure such terrifying circumstances.

The sales of Iron Lung surged in the wake of the Titanic sub saga. Sadly, the company responsible for manufacturing the submarine involved in the Titanic expedition has made a grim announcement, stating that they believe the missing individuals to be deceased. As the focus shifts from rescue to recovery, the thoughts and condolences of people worldwide go out to the families and friends of those lost in this tragic incident.
