Bookmarked. Can't read that now! Reading that, he sounds like he was a right arrogant prick!

His reply to criticisms with "I take this as a personal insult" confirmed his cunt status to me.

I think I said a while back that we’d probably never know what happened down there. I now think that was spectacularly wrong, I haven’t seen such a throughly documented map of the inevitable since January 6.

What a read that is,brilliant piece of writing and absolutly haunting in equal measures.
He was a narcissistic prick and sadly innocent lives lost.
The "mission specialist" roles as oppose to "passengers" and many other points just horrendous.

What a fucking prick. James Cameron's summary is absolutely correct, it's the exact same kind of hubris and arrogance that led to the Titanic disaster in the first place.
I said on a previous page that the game controller might not have put me off like it did everyone else. Now I can tell you that in combination with all the legalese and flagrant money laundering that was involved in getting a place on board, I would definitely have come to my senses. Like the time I nearly bought a Wii U from Brighthouse

Just to echo what others have said, really - that New Yorker piece was excellent, and paints a vivid picture of Rush's hubris that was only ever going to end one way. What a colossal asshole that guy was. Unrelated, but it reminded me of this Vanity Fair article regarding the sinking of the El Faro.

Very good read, seems a bit odd it never seemed to come to the attention of the wider press etc.
