When you don’t cut corners 🫶🏿
The difference in interior equipment says it all. The titan was playing with fire(or water I guess)
@@jordanbolm8517 It’s baffling especially when you think nearly all your clients are millionaires and billionaires.
When you dont use a gaming controller and dont buy the sub parts on camperworld =)
This sub cost $37m to build, it's a masterpiece, it could dive to 10000m every day and never have an issue
How would you know it will never have issue?
@@fahadabdulraheem1407
Cuz it's tested for it.
@@fahadabdulraheem1407for example alvin has 5000 dives
when will we see more of this i can't find much on the DSV LF
@@fahadabdulraheem1407 Pretty sure they are referring to an implosion issue which for spherical pressure vessels made of isotropic materials the fatigue failure lifespan is provably calculated and more importantly tested physically with such levels of confidence that you can say it could dive repeatedly without issue.
Victor and the team showed us really how it's done professionally. These guys are just killing it in deep ocean dives..
I love the look on her face as she boarded the Limiting Factor! Pure joy!. "...pretty excited, I feel really calm...I feel like I'm going home..." And her smile when she returned to the surface, and the Support Vessel - just what I needed to jolt me out of the funk I've been in since the Titan loss. A restoration of confidence in our technology, engineering, and scientific method. It works fine, when we do it right. Thank you, Victor, and bless you, Nicole - ALOHA! Congratulations - Caladan Oceanic! BRAVO!
Congratulations Nicole! Kudos to Victor - America's Richard Branson, for having the vision for making Limiting Factor a reality and for arranging this expedition.
Victor has achieved far more things that are of true worth and historical significance than Richard Branson
@@MrRandomcommentguyI don’t think you know what you’re talking about
This guy is what Elon Musk wishes he could be lol.
She was such a great choice for someone to bring down....A person with expertise and deep deep reverence for the ocean.
As a daughter of the Mariana Islands,, this makes me so happy to know that a Pacific Islander was given the opportunity to experience such a rare opportunity.
I have a fear of deep water, heights, big underwater structures, but maybe even I could dive in this machine ( as a passenger). It looks really safe and well-designed. An inspiring video! 😊😊
The idea of extra submersibles with cameras and lighting being dropped, to record the Limiting Factor descending and ascending, is brilliant. Also its helpful because its not pitch black if lights are there. Just brilliant.
This is how it’s supposed to be done ✅.. This is true professionalism and one of the most brilliant submersibles ever built… The only way to explore those depths is with this type of vessel.. It’s State of the art .., Certified, and proven over and over and over .. Well done 😊
Victor is a great person wow. What an incredible mentor! Excited to teach, he shook her hand when they landed! like! UGH :(
this is so freaking sweet. I really wish I took a different route in life. This is too cool. This is amazing.
This is real science not some billionaires toy. So glad Gabe is ensuring this company keeps supporting research that will help us all
Congrats and happy the sub is being used to expand humankind’s knowledge
That sub is sitting down there at 36,000 feet with triple the force of the depth of the titanic. Idk how you build a sub to do that but wow. I’m gonna see how that thing is built. Titan ocean gate should have learnt from these guys
For real, i watched the building of it. Its a great vid, titanium sphere is the answer!
Money, a massive near perfect titanium pressure vessel is very expensive. They tried to do it with composites
This little fella is amazing.
I can't even imagine Ocean Gate's take on design that'd be intended for such depths but it would probably be something in the lines of yep just slap on 5 extra inches of carbon fiber past its shelf life. Surely that will hold, what could go wrong.
It's crazy to see how much more spacious the pilot chamber is when compared to the one seen in the Deepsea Challenger submersible used by James Cameron. That one looked hella cramped!
He was the first person to make it down there since the Trieste. A lot was learned from his dive.
CONGRATULATIONS VICTOR AND THANKYOU FOR YOUR AMAZING RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT FOR MAKING THIS MASSAVE PROJECT HAPPEN REALLY AMAZING
This is one of the best teams and designers in the industry!!!!! Love you guys stay safe! Much love and respect!
Having seen this video I will go inside this sub any day all day. It makes what Oceangate did looks like child's play.
Viktor is a legend.. stockton should have learnt from these guys not worked against them
You damn well know stockton was a cheap mf. This submersible is literally three times the networth of stockton
So many 'Experts' on the subject now 🤣
She has s lovely spiritual connection to the ocean and her ancestors. Everyone should have the opportunity to feel like that I think.
"The first Micronesian to dive to the Challenger Deep", as if people from most countries had already been there lol
As in the first Pacific Islander. That’s a huge milestone for us.
I really like the diverse group of people he brings on these trips, seeing their reactions has been my favorite part of these videos.
What of they were all black people?
Spectacular!
Together, we can do more amazing things compared to what we can do when apart.
Wrong, one group dominates invention and innovation. Then you have the first (insert race/gender/ethnicity) to do/copy it. That's called reality, lesser people call it racism.
@@sonnydelight5737 I'll agree to disagree and respect your perspective.
@Sonny Delight, comparing reality (scientific fact) with racism (artificial privilage through imaginary superiority) is like comparing mathematics with fictional literature.
Man you are living the dream! Aquanauts at work!
amazing to witness the beauty of the Ocean and at such depth, unbelievable.
Wow, super inspirational! Way to go!
Very cool , it can be safe fun and a valuable experience when all the precautions are taken seriously.
Wait... 19 people before this had been to the bottom of Challenger Deep? I was only aware of 4. When did these other expeditions take place? Is there any publicly available footage?
It looks like a boom of challenger deep exploration happened from 2019 to 2021. Now more than 22 people have gone there apparently. Until James Cameron there were only 3 people
So Awesome!!
Victor, true adventurer and amazing preparation
Amazing! Wow. Really what an incredible experience
That's awesome!
this sub is amazing!
Man victor is such a cool dude.
I love that LF has 2 seats! so sick!
No one can ever say she is shallow.
Balderdash
😂 Thankyou
Congratulations Nicole for that magnificient ones in lifetime experience going down to the bottom of the chellenger deep
Now this is an expedition done right. This man didn't make the sub to make money. He made it to empower others. True respect!
I'm not sure if they're not paying some amount to be able to participate in a dive, even if it's for research-purposes. I think it's a pretty expensive process to get the ship with the submersible, all the equipment and people to the right place. But maybe Victor Vescovo owns every part of this project and he finances most of it, that's possible (or funds the projects with business partners).
Wow it’s amazing when you can feel the love one has for something
I just loved it when she gave the 'Hang Loose' gesture. I haven't seen that for a while. Well done, gal...
This is what being human is about. Pushing the boundary of what is possible for all mankind.
I want to go Victor!
Wonder how well Stockton rushs design would handle that dept of 30 thousand fret?
I saw the construction video of this wonderful machine, the shere coming out of the external fuselage, 8:00. What a marvel.
At 5:54, everything seems so calm, and quiet inside and outside, and still it mesmerizes me that at every millisecond the sphere is constantly holding the world to stop those two persons from vaporizing. Congratulations from doing things right, you just can't cut corners on this subject.
RIP everyone on ocean gate titan
I love how fearlessly Nicole went on this adventure. She surely carries the attributes of her ancestors well.
Wow one of the few on our planet to go so deep more people have probably walked on the moon.
It cost around 3.5 million dollars to visit deepest part of ocean
At least it wasn't $250,000 and death.
That's cuz you come back alive
@@thefoxita1634With a sophisticated submersible that works.
Please can someone explain to me what this is actually about? How is it like returning to her home (as she put it)? How is for her ancestors? No one had ever been there before. The Challenger Deep is in the ocean territory of the Micronesia. That's it right?
And Hamish Harding had already done deep sea dives with this guy but went for the guy that cut corners
Love you guys. …but you sure love those slow motion walking shots :)
She was the perfect size for the shuttle❤
Amazing and beautiful as well ❤🎉😇👌
37 million for this craft seems like a bargain. It's amazing what humans can achieve.
What an amazing experience for this Lady ! But Its absolutely heartbreaking to think Hamish did this as well I’ve watched his trip down to challenger deep and just knowing he went in to that titan submersible is just devastating 😢
He was warned by Victor Vescovo not to do it, that the Titan was not safe and why. He ignored the advice, so why feel sorry for him? He was a fool not to listen to his friend. Some people have a death wish, if it wasn't Titan it would have been something else. Don't forget this selfish bst'd left his teenage son behind.
@@leehighland5435 Shahzada and Suleman are the only ones I really feel bad for. They didn't know any better, and Dad was a huge Titanic junkie so I can see how they fell for Stockton's BS. Hamesh and Nargelot CLEARLY knew better though. Hamesh had been in amazing DSVs and was warned by Victor as you pointed out. Nargelot worked on Nautile and had been down to the Titanic dozens of times in capable subs. For the life of me I can't figure out why either trusted Titan other than a death wish.
@@trashasaurusi think that Rush's enthusiasm was infectious, that he was highly persuasive and he always did the dive too. Regardless what wavers were signed, the moment anyone went in the Titan, they now trusted him.
@outsidersongs2682 yeah, he was a good salesmen and had that nerdy enthusiasm I can see exciting people. I've read since my last comment that Nargelot told people he saw the risks but viewed himself as a test pilot for new tech.
@@trashasaurus
I agree. Hamish was warned and so was Nargelot, they have no excuses, anyone could see that gluing two pieces of metal to a CF cylinder was not a good idea, the whole concept of the craft was flawed. I have said if the whole thing was made from 4" Titanium would have been much safer, but others have said no, it needed to be a sphere shape. I am not sure, but one thing I would have tested it 50 times down there or until it collapsed, just to see what it could take, but he didn't even do that, he tested it with paying passengers. I would never get in something like that anyway, no ship wreck is worth risking your life for.
While oceangate proceduce at very cheap and hurriedly done without being certified by the expert, the most expensive part was the recovery of the submersable parts 😂
What an amazing sub and sooo much more room than James Cameron’s deep sub.
glad you got your mud samples
Thank you Nicole yamase.Om shanti.
I admit I would go down there with them if I could and I'm happy for her.
how come there is radio communication when they said they titan couldn't the used sound??? did i miss something?
Insane
5:13 AaaawwwWWwwwWWWWWwwww...Very cute!!!
How does Limiting Factor talk to the mothership from that depth? I thought communications at that depth were really hard for radio signals?
Radio doesn't travel through water. They use acoustics, like a depth sounder, to send simple digital messages. That's why they use simple one or two word messages.
Sonar.
Under water telephone Probably
@@andanandan6061 that would be a hydrophone.
Now if you look at this. This sub is designed to operate at 11000 meters, if i am nost mistaken actuall crush deepth is 14000m, so it can go for almost 3.9 kilometers more. Titan reached Titanic which was on 3.8km 6 times, each time there were problems. It was never certified to reach even that deepth. If you invest enough money and time and you certified your submersible to reach depth you built it for. With good maintanance there should be no problems. Yes there is always, always possibility that something will go wrong and again it doesnt mean that it will actually. OceanGate made so many mistakes, and unfortunatley it end bad for five people. Frankly if i would look at myself. No matter how safe any submersible is, there is no way i would ever step in one.
It has more than “one” button.
keep going
this sub went 3 times the depth of the titanic
Back in the days i always thought subs had to be rounded just like military subs look like a cigarette. Now i've been told otherwise. Which tells me once again there cant be that enormous pressure down there.
What a weird looking sub... I love it.
0:07 I'm a little confused by the Marshall Island flag here. Is that where the ship is registered?
Yep, registered in Marshal Islands. Look up Flag of Convenience if you want to know more, basically there's a couple countries (Panama, Liberia, MI) that don't require people to actually be from there to register ships and have super low or no taxes at all. Something like 2/3 of all commercial ships are FOC :) I went down this rabbit hole of research myself a bit ago
What is the purpose of this
C'est passionnant tout celà. Mais qui finance ?
A lady who respects herself
Titan was indeed a joke just like the owner Rush
Ocean gate should build like this lmao
look how high tech it is inside lol
do they take cyanide capsules just in case?
death from cyanide is much slower that from ocean depth pressure
She's cute.
Wow you mean to tell me her ancestors have lived in the pacific ocean for centuries and she never once visited Challenger deep? What have they been doing all this time? 🙃
Good for him for keeping his passenger safe
In this sumergible you see all the high tech unlike ocean greedy Gate
Congrats on being the first Native American to do that how cool
*Pacific Islander.
Why have we not heard about James Cameron’s trip ?
We have?
We did like 11 years ago.
2:15: “Growing up, I’ve always been surrounded by the water.”
By contrast, I’ve always been surrounded by the beer. *That* may be the reason why I’m so desperately unsuccessful, compared to these people. 🤪
Build a submersible that dives in beer
This young lady should have chosen Titan to go that deep instead of this machine.
Triton Subs: James Cameron owns a small part of this company
Deepest gratitude? Pun intended? ;)
4:43 ladies first, no?
Is the passenger trained how to pilot in case of an emergency?
Ofc
how in mother's earth name can those fish live down there? talk about resilience 😮
They are at the same pressure internally as the water. Humans are under 14.7psi from the weight of the atmosphere but we don't feel any pressure for the same reason, we're adapted to it, our bodies don't contain any lower pressure pockets to be crushed by a differential.
Better submersible than that titan 🤷
Still waiting for the first one-armed, gay, midget dive. How long???!!!!!!
Oh, im sure that will be next. We have to have diversity at the bottom of the ocean.🙄
Still waiting for the first golden fish dive, right after the first dog dive
Я тоже хочу с Виктором так❤❤❤❤
I would like to see a Tin Can taped and dived to 12K ft
The main bummer about this thing only fitting two people is...who you gonna blame if you fart?
JAJAJAJA
Lmao
“Oh god that stinks, I’m gonna puke.. opening the hatch”
💥
I like how her whole identity relies on her race. Truly inspiring.
oceangate = wish submersible
For any curious about the terms: the deep pacific region of Oceania is indigenously inhabited by those collectively called broadly part of the Austronesian group of cultures; theres 3 main subregions which themselves have actually equivalent demonyms (names of cultural groups): Micronesia(ns), Polynesia(ns), and Melanesia(ns).
So while as a Micronesian, she is not a polynesian like say native Hawaiians, they are part of the same broader like, metagroup. So fir example, when she expresses pride at the mentioned Hawaiian professor of Polynesian heritage, theyre NOT just part of the same kinda nebulously defined "cultural group", but the two are related. E.G. micronesia and polynesian are NOT interchangeable, but do share a broader kinship; for an oversimplified analogy, imagine an Iriquois person inspired by say a Sioux scoentist. Theyre not the same, and each of the two grojpings can actually be even further broken down into specific tribes, but there still may be some level of camaraderie between the 'cultural cousins' so to speak, especially in modern era where both kinds of broadly austronesian peoples have often faced related challenges, exploitation, and downright oppression in many ways
I feel like I somehow both over and underexplained this lol, but given the context of the video and common ignorance of those outside such communities it felt worth delving into even in a sparknotes-kinda way.
Also as a matter of clarification, when I say "three main groups of..." I'm specifically talking about the smaller and more remote islands the Pacific is famous for; there are other groups that generally fall under the Austronesian ethnolinguistic umbrella, such as aboriginal New guineans or Malagasy of Madagascar even, etc.
we all know why we are here
So, they didn't have to abort 7 times in a row and then go home and next year abort some 4 times more because of issues.
I thought a heard a reference to Aliens Combat Drop. “Dive Dive Dive Dive” = “Five Five Five Five” 😅👍🏻
