Okay.
The aircraft has an explosive decompression event at 35,000 feet.
The crew immediately initiate a high speed descent to 12.000 feet
And all in about 3 minutes.


That 23,000 feet pressure difference is less than sea level to the 30
feet underwater level.
A diver can spent 30 minutes at 30 feet with no decompression
required.


Yo have no idea. You better inform yourself before bashing others.


Okay.
Point out to me where I am wrong...
and where I 'have no idea'
FYI the barometric pressure at 30,000 is somewhere about 300 mb and at
10,000 around 600mb.
Thats a pressure differentiation of 300mb which isn't going to do
anything but pop your ears!
