It was that good in the 70s when my uncle heard a sub implode with it.
YES
it is despite what you hear on the budget floor
man made sounds are very very different from nature.
a crushing collapse , would be very noisy in the scheme of things

a leak in a drop or a spray in a submarine...maybe they could fix it, but its not a submarine.
its a really thin walled bubble and a leak would go from HEY its wet, to HEY we are dead extremely fast


not so sure about the sudden HEAT from imploding, but i can see it from a science standpoint
lots of energy to displace really fast
think boat propeller cavitation and the bubbles that eat at a prop surface

those people probably only had time to think Oh, if at all

a shame
Supposedly they knew they were in trouble and dropped the emergency ballast to come up, but they imploded too fast.
