New bet to add to old bet:

2 weeks to find the wreckage. Takers?

[wardd]

i bet it leaks in the rain

Because it would be tethered to control the unmanned decent and no strong

points are evident, some kind of sling or net may be used hopefully

containing the post implosion shrapnel. I'm not sure why one would look

for concrete remnants anyway.

Would you care to guess at the crush depth?

Tom, it cannot crush! It will just sink through the leaks, and have the same pressure in- and outside.


And wellmer has found another field of sensible operations at sea:
Designing a plastic bottle island/floating platform
what a marvellous, inventive spirit!

Speaking of implosions, check out this 10 000 meter failure:

I see your point...

We can bet on different things, hear bookie!
Demise depth
Implosion or not
Time to recover wreckage
This is getting harder than fantasy football

Nite nite peers,

give me a call when the fun starts!

DIVE, DIVE, DIVE!

We seem to have lost Willy to the floating plastic barge thread.

Is it wrong to laugh so hard when alone?

I'm dam near in tears here...

No no, I wont hear another bad word about Wellmer you crass ingrates. He has discovered the ideal use for egg shaped concrete structures - cruising the worlds oceans and picking up plastic and other valuable rubbish.

The aerodynamic shape of the craft will enable him to navigate easily through the huge "plastic sea" circling in the middle of the pacific. He can fill the craft up with the stuff, and what he doesnt burn for power, he can sell at profit.

This guy is a genius - we want more!!!!!

[apex1]

You´re right rw.

We should applaude to the genius of that man!











And of course I will applaude!







Immediately when he "sets sail" with his concrete sub.



I mean, if ever the sub becomes concrete..........................

[wardd]

and of course we'll get more, there's no stopping him

You´re so right wardd,

he´s now harvesting the oceans, and makes the next billions in junk:

Mining the Great Pacific Garbage Patch

well, he is a expert in junk, so that fits.

Why can't the submarine catch the floating garbage?
