I'll confess I was intrigued at 'murder' but captivated at 'midget submarine'.

I don't think that is an official term.

Yet another reason to never get into some rich guy's custom submarine.

I watched something on this. He seemed like he just wanted to get any woman to get on the submarine alone with him to kill them. It's as bizarre as it is horrific.

It seemed like it came out of nowhere, but then his whole life goal seemed to shift to killing someone.

I think they were filming a documentary about him and the project he was working on at the time.

Rich boys being weird[er].

Makes ya wonder what Elon and Marko get up to, inside their heads, in the dark of the night.

Dud’s a real psychopath according to himself. Netflix has a really creepy documentary about him.

There were narcissistic red flags when ever that guy spoke.

Patrick Bateman walking around in a Danish Bruce Wayne suit

That documentary is insane. If you didn't know what happened, you'd think the guy is just an obsessive eccentric and a bit of a creep with women. But knowing what happens, everything he says and all the red flags just clicks and makes sense. Very creepy.

Holly shit! He was also caught trying to escape prison.

That's horrifying. I hope she died quickly, at least.
