im loving your investment into deep sea filming.

deep sea... i wonder if he could get a shot of some bioluminecent fish, deffinitely not a an angler fish but you probably get what im saying. that would be cool, just prob some technical stuff, like it not getting chrushed like a soda can.
I think you would get more dramatic effects from this if you used way more weights so its sent down deep fast before the air has a chance to get out so you get a nice cavitation
Yes ! Awesome video, you need to build your own submersible next ! Also try a one of the ceramic pumpkins from hobby lobby ! 😊

"Let's pressure test it!"
Obtain a KB4-NS/3, use it to cut the top off an ostridge egg (good omelette), re-glue the top of the egg back, and test it against pressure. I'd use an epoxy glue, try to glue it as neatly as possible, any excess might just as well cause you issues. You can also try to pierce the top with a small drill after you've shaken the egg like you're trying to shake someone back into their senses, and eject the contents through that hole, after you've made a small needle hole to blow the guts the other way around. Then you can just use drops of glue to seal the egg shell back, tho that might be a bit difficult. I know it's possible, but i've never managed to get it all out (shaking the egg vigorously breaks up the content. I know some people have it down pat and they use that technique to save time on mixing the egg.

i tried looking this up earlier but could not see any results eggs are both known to be structurally strong and somewhat permeable the membrane inside the egg has a tiny air pocket surrounded by fluid ie: egg yolk the structural stability is compromised when the egg is opened so the test would have to include undamaged eggs i wanted to see the effects of high ocean pressure on a egg because all i could find were the calculations determining how much it would take before going crack and not a actual video showing the descent until it cracks

Not sure if you're kidding or not but here are my two cents: Not any better. Epoxy by itself doesn't have much strength and is fairly brittle. It would crack as soon as the pumpkin deformed just a bit. In a composite part, the fibers are where the strentgh come from.
@JaredWyns
8 ай бұрын
@@AntiVaganza true, I was thinking that if the layer was thick enough it would be able to extend how long it takes for cavitation to start, thus hopefully a better implosion when it reaches terminal failure at a deeper pressure. The fiber does give strength, but for a thick enough layer of just epoxy that's been cured enough i'd kind of expect an extended time before a crack and then hopefully a shatter due to the then pressure difference. Might be fun to test next year myself once I've moved up near puget sound

If they filled it with epoxy on the other hand... it'd take a few hundred bar until the actual flesh of the pumpkin started desintegrating
If you want one that's going to hold then get a nice round casper pumpkin with no flower/stem indentation. They use this variety for pumpkin chunkin because they are dense and strong enough to withstand the hundreds of g's to which they're subjected.
More deep water content! What if you epoxied the entire thing? How far can you push a deep water submersible?
Based on these experiments, they should be making deep submersibles out of pumpkins.

If you put a co2 cartridge inside the pumpkin it might of exploded, even thought they are built to contain pressure I am not sure they would resist outside pressure. Maybe nothing or maybe on the way back up they would explode , if it didn't sink it back to the bottom and don't bring it home because if it did explode it could send shrapnel at you . Scuba tanks are built to do both but I am not sure about a co2 cartridge.
As a cashier at a grocery store, I LOVE the idea of imploding a pumpkin! Selling 20 lb pumpkins looses it's appeal when I have to pick up the 3+ pumpkin to weigh it!
You busted out the trusty ol' third hand to pull that strand! Brilliant

So much for my pumpkin dive helmet design. Back to the drawing board.

I theorize it always fails at the because that would be the thinnest part of the wall since it curves in at the bottom, additionally the woody portion on the bottom might be more brittle and doesn't fail at the top because it has the stem making the woody portion thicker there.

Next time get an anchor yanker (small bouy with a ring you fix around the line, go in a widening around the thing your lifting and the bouy acts as a pulley, redirecting the motion of the boat to lift. Then turn towards the bouy and take in line as fast as you can)
