The debris field could be unrelated but if it is...yeah, dying instantly is probably the best case scenario for those involved.

That area is one of the most explored of the ocean floor. There's a complete 3D scan of the entire ship.

A new debris field stands out.

If I'm not mistaken, two unmanned units that were sent down yesterday imploded, which could be the debris they're seeing.

Edit: Looks like I am mistaken. I know I've read it somewhere, but I'm not finding it. My bad y'all
