I did that test to figure out the best compromise mattress for me and my gf... Helix advised me to get a different gf...
good on you for advertising $1000 mattresses in a video in which you also film a sleeping homeless person's face without their consent! very typical of the sociopathic selfishness we've all come to expect from hyper-rich tech types. the Memorial Day sale really puts a bow on it, given how many homeless people are ex-military
@@gloverelaxis You could always, you know, just go do something else instead of trolling the internet. That's a thing too.
So can you keep those scooters since they were abandoned?
@@gloverelaxis how dare he to film in public
Even the RC Submarine has a better Controller than the Titanic submarine
Lol

I would totally watch hours of you just finding treasures on the lake floor and then pulling them up with the bag and the compressor. Great content
Ever heard of magnet fishing? If not, check it out. Your comment makes me think you would enjoy it! 👍🏼
indeed
They need a hand winch to help pull stuff up
I then watch all the video other people make when you send them treasure to play with.
Or have a build off using only lake parts.
You think that would work with the airplane? ;)
Crazy how the stainless steel exhaust is still pristine looking on that old radial...
Low oxygen environments do crazy things for preservation. Lots of fossils got produced the same way.
I figured it was stainless based off of how untouched it looked haha. Definitely interesting seeing how all the different alloys hold up underwater.
@@thewatchworks1372 That too, yeah. It's all part of the equation.
@thewatchworks1372 especially fresh vs salt water
Can you guys post the timestamp i lost it
It's almost like we only need a remote control submarine to investigate wrecks!
😭😭
I heard militaries actually use controllers
@@jrozlie2280that is a fact. The echo chamber of the MSM and internet would have you think otherwise for whatever reason.
Not just that, help with underwater cave recovery missions with smaller submarines would be cool
@@GoodMorningJuiceBox exactly. the fact of going to the titanic on a sub controlled by a playstation controller is not dangeourus, its just the cheap, unreliable and dangeourus submarine itself that they went down on.
That plane has a ball turret on the nose, tall single vertical stabilizer, and blister turrets on the side. I'm pretty sure that's a Consolidated PB4Y-2 Privateer. The Privateer was commonly used as a patrol bomber by the Navy and Coast Guard during WW2 and the Korean War.
As said at 0:11
@@MaxFlorian1001 The presenter misspoke and called it pby-4 instead of pb4y. Pby-4 is a Catalina flying boat variant.

Yep, thats what i was thinking when i saw it had " seattle" painted on it, where it was based from.
Glad you enjoyed our 3D model :)
the claw?
The rideshare recovery looked like a great deal of fun. Crazy to think of how many are actually underwater though.
people really don't like those lime scooters very much lol
@@jerrymartin7019 yeah, they didn't taste like lime at all.
@@jerrymartin7019 It’s dirtbags throwing them in who don’t have anything better to do.
Just utter A-holes throwing away someone else's property, and jacking up the prices for those who actually use them properly.
@@peytonmac1131 Not only are they dirtbags for throwing in someone elses property, but they're contributing to environmental pollution
There is a similar crash site near where I live: A P-47 Thunderbolt that is only about 5-10 ft underwater. I've gone freediving in the area before and still am always amazed by how in tact it is after almost 80 years of sitting in salt water, even surviving a hurricane that pushed the wreckage hundreds of yards away from the original crash site
5 to 10 feet under water!?! Dude what lake? I've got to see that
@@neonryder8897 I live in Hawaii. The plane is in Kailua bay. The story behind it is the engine died and wouldn't restart right after takeoff when it was low over the water.
@@azuresstuff2363 I imagine the coastlines of Hawaii are littered with plane wrecks from ww2. Very cool when they're accessible to snorkelers, though.
Wonder why they wouldn't have retrieved it if it is so shallow. Apparently they did try to get this PBY4 out of the lake but it failed and sank back to the bottom
@@MarcusBrannon "was moved hundreds of yards from original crash site"
Now I want someone to make a submarine like this that can do realtime 3D mapping so you can get a little 3D map of where you're at like in the movies. Would help massively with navigating I Imagine, especially if they do 360 cameras that can track where the cable is as well.
Or maybe a LIDAR
@@GospodinJean LIDAR doesn't work well due to the high absorption of light from the water (and also the mud), same reason you can't have long distance radio contact.
A 3D-Sonar mapping would possibly work though, especially for very limited distances.
most fish finders will already do this pretty well.
i wonder if one can do bunch of lidar sensors. not terribly expensive and can be used to map as well as proximity sensors
I think a lidar sensor. You would have to set it up to filter out small items (floating crap)
I love these diving videos lmao. We really need more of these because I love seeing you guys salvage this neat stuff.
this is great. you and Peter should partner up for a boat trip rc junk mining tour
I took intensive scientific diving classes to work underwater, use lift bags, etc. The instructors always emphasized that scuba is often the wrong tool for the job, even if fun. So cool to see you experiment and learn without risking life or limb.
If you're trying to get a football out of a tree, scuba is DEFINITELY the wrong tool for the job 🤣
The PB4Y privateer is basically the Navy variant of the B-24 Liberator, so unlike the most famous PBY the Catalina, this is a land-based airplane. Well it was until they crashed it. The PBY designation means that it's a patrol bomber produced by consolidated, it doesn't follow quite the same letter number sequence that they would standardize in the Cold War.
Reminds me of my SCUBA days. RC is safer, deeper and more comfortable. Catalina Island had lots of fish. It was another world. Congratulations on flying underwater.
Just the fact you can buy this stuff is incredible, when a few years ago it was the territory of research vessels.
Excellent content as always.
I work as an industrial subsea ROV Pilot, and filling bags with nitrogen and achieving equilibrium is the way we move things around subsea. We lift items weighing several tons using lift bladders, and a load monitor under the blader tells us how much we’re lifting, so that the ROV (with a lift capacity of 500kg) doesnt overload it’s thrusters. Usually we make it so it lifts around 100kg, giving us 400kg buffer.
How to get Hired at your outfit?
I would love to have a job like that
@@benmcreynolds8581 are you good with regular drones? If so, simply apply to an ROV company and tell them what they want to hear, and that youre good with drones
@@nokbeen3654 that makes me happy. I'm really good with drones, video games, and it would be so cool to get a job helping science studies, or explorations.. the list goes on. Even doing mundane things in a job like that would be so interesting
Finally a submarine that made it to its destination
💀💀💀💀
At least the controler is working
"It's too deep for me." Mad props for realizing your limits as a scuba diver, even though the circumstances (line directly to the wreck and what seems to be pretty calm, non-busy water) woud make it very tempting to just go there and see it for yoursef.
It really is too deep, at the depth regular compressed air is poison. You need a tri mixture of inert gas, then you would have to do decompression stops, plus for saftey you need a surface compression chamber in case you get the bends. The navy dive tables were set up for young fit men.
150ft is completely reasonable depth to go to on 1 cylinder of compressed air (S100/15l) if you know, what you are doing. PPO2 at that depth is 1.15, which iirc is around what you would have as a setpoint if you were on CCR. The concerns are mostly nitrogen narcosis (though at that depth, you shouldn't get affected too much) or simply running out of air, because the werck is gorgeous and it'd be very easy to forget about time.
The margins are fairly tight though, so such a dive should definitely not be attempted solo.
@@harrodharrod5239 with all due respect, youre clue less.
What a time to get recommended a submarine related video 👀👀👀
Try titanic bro
When you were exploring the plane I could not shake the feeling that something was going to pop out. It just triggered something inside of me and my fight or flight response was just always on. GREAT VIDEO!
THANK YOU I was convinced something like that was going to happen.
Like the Jaws jumpscare?
This is like those guys that find stuff in the water with magnets, but better.
That controller is better then the one on the sea gate sub💀
You mean oceanfence
@@Michael-cb3uw you mean river door?
@@AhmeddoesRC You mean LakeLatch?
@rctestflight, we dive the PB4Y often using UW scooters from shore/Magnussen park, it would be swell to do an ROV + divers video at some point. Please ping me if you are interested.
going through that dust feels like sci fi movie hyper flight
This was the best video of the bomber I’ve ever seen. I’ve got about 10 hours diving on this wreck. This was so cool to see someone else enjoying the wreck as much as I have!
Ever since I've seen the Titan submarine video.. I've been getting these 💀
Same
Doing better than the Oceangate Titan
Ekranoplans, fiberglass repair, electric outboards, submersibles, autonomous airplanes and boats!!! I wanna be Daniel’s assistant! So very cool! 👍🏼
That "thing" on the side of the fuselage at 11:06 looks to be the port waist gunner position. They were mounted way out on the side in order to be able to shoot downwards, as it lacked a ventral turret like the B-17 or B-24.
the front part with the middle glass shows it is a b24 because of the glasses viewing up and the b17 not having a central glass but 2 in the center
@@SentyNel904 the dude in the video said it's a PB4Y bomber according to another comment basically the Navy variant of the B-24
algorithm 💀
have you seen the Tom Scott video ?
i did ......
@@fergabmmx many times
I hope the control doesn’t disconnect
Lmfaooo TH-cam was like: why the hell they ain’t used this🤔 let me recommend this video rq😂
this is the right way to do it
Next time go to the titanic 👍
I read that there are about 50 WW2 aircraft on the bottom of Lake Washington. Most were intentionally dumped off the Sandpoint Naval Base. The Seattle Flight Museum has a Corsair that was raised from the Lake and restored. I think some of the parts early in the video may be from a Curtiss Helldiver and not the Privateer. There’s supposed to be a Martin Mariner Flying boat sunk out there too.
The bag made me think you might consider creating an emergency tether cutoff. It could be actuated by a servo that uses a CO2 cartridge to force some shears closed to slice the tether near the sub and inflate a bag to bring the sub to the surface. That would at least save the sub, and I'm sure you could pull the bare tether back through whatever it caught on and maybe even reuse that. Would at least add some peace of mind while exploring :)
This guy predicted the future
is everyone getting recommended this after the submarine incident
What brand of controller are you using?
😂😂😂
a drone sub? WRITE THAT DOWN, WRITE THAT DOWN!!
Can you explore the ocean gate titan sub
It ain't a thing anymore
Something oceangate should've done
Watches it throught a monitor ✅
Moved by a controller ✅
Has to pay $250.000 each ride ❌
Has to sign a death risk term ❌
this is so funny.
considering one of the scooters started coming back to life just by regenning, shows a lot of ptential hacking abilities
you should try exploring the titanic next!
💀💀
Dont use a logitech to steer it
my man you just won the youtube algorithm lottery
This was super cool! If you're ever lacking for engineering content, feel free to go all in on the scavenging in between projects. It's strangely super entertaining to watch y'all just pull garbage/salvageable scooters out of the lake. Great video!
I've recovered hub motors that have been underwater and they still work! You'd be surprised how resilient the hub motors are I was able to recover hoverboard motors that had water in them for months and they work fine. Some did need new bearings. One was rusted to the point where it was completely seized. Soaking in vinegar and replacing the bearings and shockingly it works great now!
The algorithm loves anything submarine related now.
I love how that really was the thumbnail for your motor build video.
gee I wonder why this video was recommended to me
Hmmm ummmmmmmm
Next, look for the titanic
💀
This kind of exploration is the exact reason I’ve always wanted an underwater ROV. This is brill
25:18 I laughed so hard i couldn't breathe (Like the people on the submarine)
can’t wait for the nest video where you explore the TITANic sub wreck and find that rich dudes wallet 😉
Thanks TH-cam, what perfect timing.
💀
Lol
💀💀
this sub don't disconnected
bruh this is showing up in my recommended at the wrong time
Why is TH-cam continuosly reccomending Submarine related videos now?
thanks for including a 3d model in the description there, its cool to see and to try and visualize where the drone is
POV: You got recommended this video during the Titan Submersible implosion
I hope you consider doing more submarine scavenging in the future.
What controller do you use?
Probably a wireless ps4
@@Michael-cb3uw no he uses 40 dollar logitech
I guess the titan should’ve used it since it works so well
One of the most entertainment videos ever and it's two guys pulling out things of a lake and visiting an old airplane, great!!!
This is really really cool. I'm currently getting into aviation. I'm super into lakes/river water recovery. I'm into diving. I'm super into military history, specifically aviation. So this is hitting all the high notes for me. Its like you browsed my analytics and made a video just for me lol
“I hope our friend doesn’t mind the noise”
3 meters from an air compressor 😂
I wasn't aware a PB4Y-2 had been lost in that lake. Good video! Dad was a nose gunner on one of those in WWII. VPB-109, Pacific Theater.
Very cool and crazy to think about whats at the bottom of lakes. Could easily watch hours of you guys looking for stuff. Everything has a story of how it got there
The algorithm is based.
This plane crash is a popular diving location in Lake Washington. Nobody died in the plane crash and it isn't correlated to ww2. Along with the plane, there are many ship wrecks. Because the lake is deep it became a dumping ground for old ships and other trash, and the lake was not safe to swim in for a long time until a large scale clean up effort was made.
Well this is gonna blow up..
more like blow in!
@@TempyTheKnightsmart
That airbag was a really neat trick. If you practiced some more you could get some really big stuff out of very deep water with that. Just need to make sure everything is neutrally buoyant when the bag is empty (as possible).
Awesome look at that bomber, btw! Nice job getting unstuck too. It seems like that rover could use a swivel cam.
We know what happens to submarines that are controlled buy controllers 💀
the batteries in the controller died 😰
You can’t even spell by
@@JamalChosen whoops I made a mistake who gives a fuck
@@JamalChosenconsume cyanide
When I was a kid in the 80s, we had a friend that would go diving quite often, and he told me a story about a Jaguar that rolled off of one of the ferry’s in Edmonds just after leaving for one of the islands. He said that it was left there for divers to explore and because the insurance company did not want to go after it. You should go and see if you can find it.
Oceangate could take some design inspiration from this.
Hope the Logitech controller doesn’t die
aint no way this was recommended to me at this time
11:07 that is a blister observation canopy. They used those to check the blind spots of the pilots. They would check for enemy aircraft, spy on ships, and look for survivors.
I'd love to see you do something with those bikes and scooters, like getting them working or using them in a different project, or a combo of both
Titan, take notes
bruh
I didn't realise at first that you're 150ft down. It's crazy how we can just get clear live footage from all the way down there. Spooky too
These guys are so chill I swear
Gotta do more submarine adventures !
What an amazing little contraption. That was fun.
Don’t let your sub implode please
I am 79 years old and i really enjoy you juat meesing with stuff a nd making it work. Hooking that bag to the bike and inflaring the bag was m 27:32 mezmerizing. I waa actually cheering you on. I subscribed to see what else you are doimg. Loved your dyson powered plane.
very cool. i've heard lots of local stories about the planes in the lake, and now I've seen them. thanks!
Watching your videos is always the best part of my week
This was pretty epic! Your a man of many talents and have cool friends as well. I’m envious of your projects and skills.
The PB4-Y is one of my favorite looking American bombers for sure and had lots of defensive guns. At 16:22 in the video those are blister turrets they’re side mounted twin .50 cals with a lot of degrees of motion
I would watch dozens more of these exoloring wrecks, super great footage! Really happy it didn't get stuck haha
Titanic submarine good ending
This is incredible! I’ve seen this in my recommended for a while and had just ignored it, but today I have some time and decided I’d watch it, and it’s just amazing! The sub looks like it’s a super item, I’d actually love one myself to help out with fishing! Incredible video!
Great video, incredible detail.
id pay 250,000 to ride in this
Bro where do I sign up
Get some batteries for the psp controller
Nice find!
NAS Sand Point (on lk Washington) was a large USN float plane base as well.
I’ve been living up in the puget sound area for 2 years now and I never even thought about all the cool stuff under the ocean. Great video!
Please do more treasure fishing videos! Maybe fix a few things up, or at least make sure they get disposed of properly.
