Rick Ross was following the OceanGate submersible story, just like everybody else, and offered a hot take on how he would have saved the Titanic sub.

Ross, 47, admitted he is no "seaologist" while talking to his social media audience, yet couldn't hel but wonder why the Titan was not tethered to a platform on the surface.

Fans were quick to explain to Ross that the Titanic wreckage is 12,500 feet below sea level, so it would take a lot of tether.

There's also the issue of pressure that for down the ocean, which would easily snap a tether.

One final problem with Ross' theory is that the submersible reportedly imploded near the Titanic wreckage.

The company was cutting corners to reduce costs and paid the ultimate price for ignoring safety measures.

OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush, who perished in the missing sub, was offering $250,000 rides to the bottom of the sea.

For comparison, director James Cameron paid $10 million for the Deepsea Challenger, a high-end Titanic wreckage excursion.

Ross' tether idea would have been a smart idea as a last resort, but the OceanGate sub was doomed from the start.
