There was a week spot in the hull, and it finally gave way after many dives. It’s very possible noises from stress on the hull and even a leak ws occurring,,so they may have been aware of their fate momentarily before forces hit them like standing next to larger bomb. It was probably a partial hull crushing in and water coming in behind instantaneously.
We know it imploded and they didn’t drown from a slow leak or the vessel would probably be intact.
They were dead in less than a second when 6000 psi crushes you into mush.
