Read over on Reddit that an implosion would have taken 0.029 seconds, while the brain needs 0.150 seconds to register stuff.

Don't quote me on the actual numbers, though.

unless of course there was some creaking and cracking noises first, then maybe a little spray of water.

At that depth, I feel like creaking and cracking is probably common. However, I don't think there would be any spraying as an indicator. Based on this tweet I saw earlier.

Yeah but they had to get to that depth. With the pressure gradually increasing, I don't see why it's not possible for them to hear creaking and groaning as the pressure increased, until they eventually reached fatal depth.
