- In this video, we test what happens if the airlock of a space station is accidentally opened, causing all the air to escape in an instant. We also simulate another extreme scenario: a saturation diving chamber accident where a pressurized chamber is mistakenly opened. Watch as we explore the effects of sudden pressure changes on the environment and the potential consequences for anyone caught in these dangerous situations.

This comment made me laugh so much! Thank you for that! X'D
I was just coming to comment this 😂 well done.
just look up the Byford Dolphin Diving bell accident. gruesome
You beat me to it fella! I just made my comment observing the same tragedy then saw yours underneath mine. Its cool that people like you are so well informed. Yes they were all killed via Explosive Decompression, killed in a micro-second!
I like the cut of your jib.
@@Stikkzz I heard about that years ago when I was watching some dive disaster videos. Absolutely nasty that one...
Except comparing that to atmospheric pressure is like comparing a squirtgun to a fire hose.
@@custos3249 That's why I was wondering why of all things the Oceangate sub was made of carbon fiber. I manufactured that stuff for years and it doesn't hold up to thousands of atmospheres with only one atmo of pressure inside. Would be better for use in space.
The ISS space station has normal atmospheric pressure and is "made" of oxygen and nitrogen. The air humidity is approximately the same as on the ground, which means there is moisture. If the air was completely dry, it would be a big problem :)
There are also tiny leaks all over the place. They just get patched when they are found.
It's not ISS space station.
The "SS" is short for space station.
So you call it the ISS or International Space Station.
You don't say "ATM machine" or "LED light" do you?
Because if you do, then you're talking wrong, being redundant and wasting oxygen, while upsetting pedants everywhere.
LED is light emitting diode, so "light emitting diode light" is redundant.
ATM is "auto teller machine" so "auto teller machine machine" is redundant.
That's just my 2 cents. Redundancy gives me heartburn, that's why I don't study the sending and receiving of packets through broadband. I'd get an ulcer.
@@Boogie_the_cat you were redundant after the third line. You typed 3x more redundant shit after you made your point than you needed to.
Hope your ulcer isn't gonna be too bad, since you seem to be on a self destructive path.
@@Boogie_the_cat wow, you are definitely fun at parties 😂😂

What is generally forgotten is that the pressure differential between one atmosphere (space vehicles use 1 bar only) and hard vacuum is only one atmosphere / 14psi.
It's not like the pressure differential on a deep sea submersible
It's not really forgotten. It's just very unintuitive concept to understand because we don't have readily available vacuums to see and test in our everyday life. And many examples that we have appears to prove the opposite at the face value.
For example, if you shake a can of soda made from thin sheet of aluminum, it will have multiple atmospheres of pressure differential but works just fine. However, you never see vacuum chambers made from thin aluminum sheet that could withstand the pressure. If you suck a vacuum to a soda can, it will buckle way before reaching one atmosphere of pressure differential.
Understanding why this happens requires much more knowledge about physics than what you can simply infer from looking at buckling or bulging soda cans, and most people don't have it. It's very unintuitive and against common sense, which makes it hard to understand for laypeople.
@@anteshell -- Soda cans are more like 1.2atm; that's why they don't bubble even when shaken on a submarine which typically operates at 2atm.
@@zmgehlke The exact numbers are irrelevant to anything I said, because I'm not talking about the math. I'm talking about the reasons why people don't understand this phenomenon.
And still, soda cans absolutely do bulge and I've had a couple even exploding to my hands due to too much pressure inside, if you mean that by "bubbling". But that is also caused by the liquid bubbling and releasing co2, so that happens too if you used the word "bubble" correctly.
@@anteshell -- The difference matters, because a vacuum is 5x the pressure difference between a soda can and outside air. You're trying to make it mysterious, when really, it's just a higher pressure differential.
@@zmgehlke Take a long and hard look to my comment, read it slowly and as many times as needed until you finally understand it... I'm absolutely not making mysteries out of anything.
"Today we have chosen violence."
Lol😂😂😂
I know we're about to have some fun!
The only thing missing is when they show rapid pressure change in the movies there are always loose sheets of paper flying around to increase the dramatic effect.
Breathing vaporized chicken, just what the doctor ordered. I hope there were no salmonella or other infection..
My friends and I used to crush different things in the trash compactor in high school, and as a result this channel holds a special place in my heart.😊
Mmmm....vaporized salmonella. Now that would be dangerous to astronauts or divers lol.
Now that's a cheater bar!
mua on aina ärsyttäny kun leffoisa tulee avaruusalukseen kolikon kokonen reikä ni sisällä pöllyää ja jengi menee siitä reiästä läpi :D todellisuudesa eka ku painaa peukalon siihe ni saa piänen fritsun ja homma ok :D
And, on the ISS, that would be even less of an issue. They work in almost pure oxygen under 0.2 bar. (3 PSI)
Ja ISS:llä se olisi vieläkin pienempi ongelma. Ne toimivat lähes puhtaassa hapessa alle 0,2 baarin paineessa. (3 PSI) [translation by Google translate]
@@Kualinar they are at 1 bar too. First I thought that they are at lower pressure so the "suction" effect would be about as bad as vacuum cleaner but seems that the lower pressure with higher oxygen % causes more problems so they are using 100kpa nowadays
Joo ei tule mieleen kuin The Expanse missä tämä on ollu oikein.
@@Aisamiez OK, my source for that turned out to be out of date🥺 My bad.
I can see how a lower pressure can wreak havoc with the cooling of all those computers on the station. Lower pressure air can't carry enough heat away.
«If somebody opens the door you are not going to see shit!»

"I think our astronauts tomorrow are going to like this."
astronaut relaxes 😅 I'll be fine
Can someone remind me, please? At what point did they decide that a staged, exaggerated laughter is a feature of the channel and attracts viewers? It scares me every time.
well thats one way to cover your shop in salmonella lol
Hey hydraulic press channel! It was all Timo's strength that loosened the stuck window! Ride ride ride!
At TFC (Tampere Fried Chicken) the meals are served with broken bones and little meat...
Hannah's laugh at 9:07 is kind of terrifying 😅. Put that on a track and put it in a haunted house lol.
We all know that Hannah could have taken that window off using her fingers!

I wouldn't be opposed to watching in all Finnish with English subtitles.
Everyone buying these swivel head ratchets lately, there been an offer on? 🤣
It's a breaker bar, for when you really need to break free an over-torqued bolt.
If you want to get rid of all moisture, you have to apply vacuum pump for the chamber long enough before sucking in the nitrogen. Luckily, it's really easy to fill the chamber when it's under vacuum and you open the valve to nitrogen tank.
No torque multiplier at the machine shop?
7:50 This channel always delivers. If at first you don't get mayhem, try again.
You know things get serious when he says "Okay, time to go apesh*t." 😂😂😂
So the good news is if you're ever on a space station and the door is opened, you will probably not be blown out. You will however suffocate rather quickly, the air in your lungs will be forced out at 14.5 psi, your blood will begin to boil and after quite some time (poor thermal transfer), you'll freeze. The bad news is you won't see shit, not because of the water vapor but because the fluid in your eyes will also boil. How will it escape? GRIM.
They may have invented chicken mist here, but Costco actually sells chicken floss.
Space station are usually below one bar, as they have a rich in oxygen environment.
I just do not remember the exact number (0.8? 0.4?) but is pretty much high altitude city pressure.
... I imagine that most astronauts (in the quest for a balanced world) think its now appropriate you produce a video of an experiment / diorama duplicating your test lab and what happens to onlookers if the polycarbonate barrier fails during one of your more energetic explosions...
Try your device inside a vacuum chamber equivalent to the vacuum of space I think you will get a better result than this in our normal atmosphere
Well, the common misconception is being sucked into space, when it is being blown into space by the air behind you. It sounds like a minor difference until you realize one would spaghettifiy through a small hole as you are "sucked out". The other just ends up with your thumb blocking the hole as the pressure difference of 1 atmosphere is not actually that great, or vacuum cleaners would be WMDs....
It's the pressure difference that does the work, and pushes... So if you are in a sealed airlock, which door you were up against would make all the difference, the inner or out door. The outer door would have the mass of air beind you pushing you out. The inner door the air is just flowing away from you, anything behind you will 'push'
I can't help but wonder why you needed help getting the end off your test chamber 🤷🏻♂️
You're obviously plenty strong enough, and you have all the right tools for the job. 🧐 Your little 150t press definitely could've held that chamber down without any problem 😉
I love your channel, keep the videos coming 🥰
Reminds me of Unknown Hinson's Liquid Chicken commercial.
Yes, it's on TH-cam.
Doesn't take much pressure change to make clouds. A science project a long time ago demonstrated it by punching a sheet of rubber down over a large mouthed (4L/1G) glass jar.
rapidly decompressing any chamber is an endothermic process. I would think that suddenly decompressing any gas would result in some amount of vapor production as some amount of the gas turns to liquid, since the energy distribution won't be uniform and some molecules will get cooled more than others. I've never seen a gas cannon of any kind that didn't produce some vapors when fired, whether it was powered using air, nitrogen, or carbon dioxide (those are the only gasses I've seen used this way, the other setups all burned whatever gas was used for more propulsion)
0:17 This needs to be on a T shirt!
What you need is a vacuum chamber big enough to put your pressurized vessel in, with a metal frame, thick polycarbonate walls, a wireless remote to open the "hatch". Pressurize the "space station" close all valves on it, disconnect all hoses, and place it in the vacuum chamber. And then conduct the experiment.
It would be really interesting to see 1bar into a larger vaccum.
I cant imagine the station is pressurized more than 1 bar and space is a total vacuum. That one bar might do way more damage than you think into a vacuum.
What if you put a ballistic gel head in the pressure chamber and pressurized it with water, then opened the valve?
Do you think it would be forced through that small opening? Or would the water just bore a hole through the head?
You'll be glad you did that at the end of summer otherwise there would be a funny smell in the shop for ages unless you managed to find every bit of pulverised chicken 😂
The fact that Timo suggested making a video about something, surprised me. Older generations don't often adopt youtuber-mindsets like that.
😂 Well, hey - you did get the right kind of mist in the end. I'm pretty sure the last thing you'd is just white air. Also I really like the idea of "what will go through the valve?".
This wasn't a disappointing video at all. I watch your videos for the commentary and Hanna's screams. She's such a scardey cat. Holy Sheet! haha
A big enough door opening fast enough will "blow" you out into the void rather than the void "sucking" you out.
Also, there's no vacuum in space. It's just 0 pressure. There's nothing there to "suck" anything.
And on the subject of moisture onboard space stations. They had an electrical fire onboard Mir and when they removed the panels, they found a huge blob of organic puss that had grown there. Just because moisture, bacteria, filth and everything such takes on another life when in space. I have not seen pictures of it, but heard it described, and based on that I feel no need to.
It would be neat to see this recreated with a internal mounted thermocouple to see what sort of temperature is reached due to high P and constant V. Havent seen many PVT diagrams for pressures needed to cook chicken, but im not sure if thats still considered raw at the other end.
u dont need a vacuum pump just put the pressure vessel you used to shoot jets of water and run it backwards
you can mae a super vacuum chamber just by making a large cylinder and remove the piston to make a fast vacuum. imagine making a 2 foot long chamber that a rod is removed from at high speed to make instant vacuum.
atoms cant be pumped out well because they need to migrate to the pump but increasing the chamber volume will seperate the atoms immeduiately to the vaccumnes that would take a hour to pump down to with molecular pumps.
9:29 OMG she looks like Mat Armstrong's dad if he had long blonde hairs😱 Am I the only one who see the resemblance?
It’s kind of crazy that this channel now only gets views from .5 percent of their entire audience. It’s interesting how a channel needs to evolve to stay alive.
I think the point your missing is the zero gravity part.... the theory is with no gravity its easy to get sucked right out. But i dont believe its realistic. Might move you a decent bit but your mass is much greater than the mass of the air leaving.
Airlock opened in space is not sucked but blown, a simple misconception.
True, there is no such thing as "suction, and it is good to understand that; but that word does serve well to describe the effects of differential pressure.
It is just a pressure differential. There is no difference between suck and blow from a physics perspective only a mental one concerning the source of the power. If you added another module outside the airlock of infinite size then pumped the air out of that, then opened the door between the two the result would be functionaly the same. The bouncing air molecules don't know where the motor is. So things are blown into your vacuum cleaner as much as they are sucked into it.
I’m really surprised that the astronaut didn’t get sucked out in any of the reasonable tests. Does anyone know why?
In the _Byford Dolphin_ accident several men experienced an explosive decompression whilst on an underwater drill rig saturation chamber out at sea. All of the men died, instantly. One man was sucked through a tiny 18in aperture, his entire body was shredded into mincemeat, his innards were sprayed all over the compartment walls. I think it was 9 ATM down to 1 ATM in one millisecond.
If I remember correctly, it was the gap formed by one of the doors being blocked from fully closing. So more like a slot a couple inches wide. Regardless, it was over so quickly those guys don't even know they are dead. I highly recommend NOT searching for images of the incident.
9 ATM to 1 ATM, but yeah. Nasty.
@@phizc Thanks I amended my error. 0 ATM is in space...lol
@@HarmanRobotics Yes I believe you're right, it was the gap in the door he got sucked through! I saw images of one of the guys who exploded, just a bit of torso with a fragment of thigh and half an arm attached. Terrible but thankfully killed in a micro-second!
Very interesting!
Maybe you should be called "Hydraulic Press and Pressure Channel "
Lauri you should try to build a satellite carrying a HP and do press tests in space. I actually think you can do it!
The latest technology for de-boning a chicken; will wonders never cease?
I feel like the chamber model has a scaling issue. The space station has open space distances way longer than the depth of the chamber.
I was not disappointed that was the cutest holy shit I ever heard, I like her T shirt 1,000,.000.
I can't believe I only just discovered these nice people, great channel 👍🏼
You better get all that meat cleaned up or it's going to stink like the Body Farm on a hot summer day.
Me when I’m torching out the rotor on an internal gear pump: “It’s hardly tight at all!”
In a day or two the shop is going to stink and you'll be overrun with flies. :)
Yes!!! I was so happy when you pulled out the chicken drumstick!!
Te teette kyllä niin loistavaa sisältöä, että ei pysty kuin nauramaan. Samalla niin älykästä ja samalla niin "let's maximize the mayhem" totaalisen viihdyttävää ja ai että miten hauskaa teillä on. Keep on going! 🤣
No. Not "sucked" out. "Blown" out. Space does not suck! 😉
Not blown out either. There is only one atmosphere of pressure differential. You can probably fart stronger than that.
It's now proven chickens have at least 3 states of matter: egg, chicken and aerosolized
Interesting to hear you guys speaking in finnish. I´d rather listen to finnish than english :)
why not try that with a steak and see how tender you can get it and if you can cook it do you notice the difference between that one and one that is not "tenderized"
Vacuum does not 'suck'.
Pressure pushes.
"Welcome to the Pneumatic Pressure Chamber Channel"
I don't wanna be the asshole here, but I'm not a fan of the messing with food thing sorry
Not so much an astronaut simulation, more like a Stockton Rush simulation.
Will you get the succ?
I never seen anything like that before in fact I didn't see anything at all😮
you should add camera mounts to your pressure chambers, so when they move, the camera moves with it
proof that if you try hard enough you can eat chicken through a straw.
Actually, you get get blown out by the escaping air.
Give me a big enough lever and I can move the world.
there is no such thing as suction or vacuum, only less pressure.
There would be lots of moisture in the space station?
Try to use gelatin next time, is pretty close to meat.
In polycarbonate, we trust. Indeed.
Lauder tried to catch the chicken with a polycarbonate shield... Mist...
"All of the bones are broken and most of the meat is gone, so... Its not great..."
The shop is going to smell like carcass in a week lol
Byford Dolphin simulator!
Wasn't tight at all - says the man on the end of a 3 metre lever
"Time to go apeshit. I think there's no other option."
I like that phrase, “Time to escalate things”
No, won’t get sucked out, will get blown out.
... all of that pressure! Or lack of... is scary!
