[PSUBS-MAILIST] New video of bathtub submarine

Wed Jul 12 12:03:48 EDT 2017

The bathtub itself is mabe not the problem. But look at the outfitting..

Imagine seating under a hatch, flat and made from plywood. Say 0,45 x 0,6 
meter or 0,24 m2
Means a waterpressure of 240 Kg (500 pound) per meter or 1,44 ts at 6 meter 
deep.

Question - how many of you would like to seat under a sheet of plywood and 
somebody put 1,5 ts of lead bars on it?
In the center of the plywood a hole with a plastic pipe periskop made of 
material for rain drain pipes.. Never designed for any pressure.

I think this guys will not be intesst to build a real psub.
A real psub will be safe - and the video will be just shared by some 100 - 
500 psubers in the world.
And not 100.000 of kids. I think they want to be build something looking 
unsafe. And the best way to do is building something unsafe.

Carsten      -32 years of accident free submarine operations, okay.. 
somethimes it was tight..-

I have a feeling they will be sticking to this adventure for a while.  In 
the last video they had, they dove it down to 6 meters but I don't think 
they are planning on diving beyond 10 meters (The have it attached to a 
float on the surface)  I already sent them a message but I think everybody 
should  because since they are popular I have a feeling it's going to 
encourage some more people to do what they are doing.  
Does anybody know what the strength of those tubes are?

Hi Ludwig,

When I first saw these guys in the first video, I thought the same.  When I 
look at the latest video, 
I get the feeling this is just a joke to them and they are seeking youtube 
subscribers.  They don't seem interested in being responsible at all, and I 
doubt they will listen to reason.  We just have to hope they move on to 
their next attention seeking adventure before they get hurt.

I was just going to ask you guys about these people!  

I assume they are not members here, but I would say it's part of our 
"mission" to reach out and educate them and have them join this group.  I 
think what they are doing is amazing and ambitious, and we should encourage 
what they are doing but help them make the sub safer before they go about 
injuring themselves and giving a bad images on personal homebuilt 
submersibles.   

Here's the link to contacting them through the website and I highly 
recommend everybody to contact them into joining this group so we can help 
them with their project.

So I wonder if it helps (or is part of our mission) to reach out and 
educate (or warn).

Carsten is right. Every time there is an accident (or a repeated story 
about an accident)  we all get closer to being shut down.

Its show just how important it is to design a proper submarine.

A drop weight will not help if the boat itself, or the hatch or the windows 
of such a trash submarine
will collapse in estimate 3-5 metre deep.

At the end of the road from accidents by such people will be a new law:
Selfbuilding a submarine without certificate/classification forbitten.
And this will end all our hobby for cost reason.
