Do Light Bulbs Actually Implode on Sinking Ships?

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

I hope you guys enjoyed the cake! Thanks for all your support and feedback. Really appreciate it! Before I placed my first order for the parts, I knew I could get the chamber to work but my biggest concern was that I would run out of ideas for episodes. You guys have stepped up and alleviated that by coming up with more and better ideas I would've never thought of. So, thank you for that. I jotted everything down and you guys will get your answers. Cheers!

Another idea would be a high pressure sodium lamp. I think they contain elemental (or amalgamated) sodium so that might make for an interesting light show. Pure alkali metals inside a glass envelope might be interesting too as I'd like to see what effect pressure has on the reaction with water. Sealed Swiss cheese could be interesting too. Or any other cheese that contains gas bubbles. See if compressing and rapidly decompressing changes how the bubbles are arranged in the cheese.

How deep? "Just the tip" Scattered through the video are dad jokes, delivered dryly.

[@stevecann3394]

Love your channel!😀 Keep up the good work!!

[@jamesMwebber]

Great idea with the bulbs at the end

[@matthewsmcdill]

A+ work. Subbed for more watches! I want to see how the Swiss stuff holds up.

[@tfrowlett8752]

With CFL’s, nowadays there’s not usually liquid mercury inside the bulbs, but an amalgam of mercury to help control the vapour pressure better. Typically it’s in the form of a little pellet, which you may hear rattling around in some lamps, though typically they’re held in a special pocket or near the electrodes to avoid damaging the phosphor coating.

Congratulations! Creating this channel was a brilliant idea!

Congrats on 10,000 subs! I found your channel while looking for videos on restoring my 90's G Shock and found you imploding yours. Glad I subscribed!

[@jacktheripper777b]

Congratulations from Brazil 🇧🇷.. Big fan... Great content... 🎉🎂

[@davida1hiwaaynet]

Very interesting demo! I was expecting the CFL to take a lot more pressure versus the bulb, because of the geometry of the glass tube. Also; congrats on the 10,000 subscribers!

[@thetinkeringold-timer6934]

That was interesting. Thanks.

[@two6520]

This channel should have millions of subscribers. Congratulations man! And thanks for sharing with us.

[@mikeselectricstuff]

I wonder if the first pop n the CFL was the electrolytic capacitor in the power supply

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

That's a good point. I think you're right. I'll do an episode with caps.

[@funnyyylock]

Thanks for the cake man!

[@marcosaltran9719]

What about a Prince Rupert's Drop? It coud be interesting.... Congrats!!!! A big hug from Brazil

Mmmm..Cake. Fun videos! Been enjoying them for a while now.

As you cannot compress water how do you get the water pressure so high? I thought it was the weight of water above.

[@tasa4904]

Water is said to be incompressible, that's to make understanding simpler for certain physics concepts. Drill down to the atomic level and you find an oxygen atom, 2 hydrogen atoms, and a LOT of space around them. So there's plenty of room to jam more water molecules in. So add more water to fill in the gaps. And because the water molecules are now hitting the walls more often with the reduced size of their living space, that increases the pressure. Quite frankly, until you squeeze it to the point where all space is occupied and the water molecules absolutely can't move, you have a liquid. Otherwise you've turned it into a solid. According to Google, you apparently need 6 times the pressure at the deepest part of the ocean to make this happen.

[@MattLVSandman]

Grats on 10K!!

[@panosvrionis8548]

No i never thought of that 🧐 Always assume they turn of and that's it 😂😂 Instant click because i said... wait what really happens 🤔🤔 Great video 👍👍

[@leonardlakey7779]

Love the hat. Is it a Tillies?

[@sukmadiak945]

[@CandaceWatson-n8w]

You should do those big Halogen light bulbs.

[@butterdubs2267]

Electrolytic Capacitors and Batteries please 😊

[@daviddavidson2357]

Lithium ions cells would be interesting.

[@blandrooker6541]

Oh shit, an Asian Gilligan! 😆

[@dbx1233]

So, if a light bulb is lit in the ocean, but no one sees it, did it still make a light? LOL! How deep can a piece of birthday cake drop before it disintegrates? Congratulations on your 10,000 subscribers.

[@nghermit4922]

Very cool, think it would be possible to power them while crushing?

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

Not these bulbs. But flashlights yes.

[@dominiclobue]

What mechanism are you using to increase the pressure? It is driving me mad that I can't figure out how you're increasing pressure so smoothly, silently, and quickly! I'd love a video on the design of your machine!

[@ericesquivel5485]

I believe a collab with The Slow Mo Guys is in order😊😊😊😊😊

[@daviddavidson2357]

Last time Guam capsized the lightbulbs all broke.

[@geraldfrost4710]

Hank Johnson, the senator from Georgia, was worried about that. 2010, and his stupidity still follows him. The general who was talking to him calmly said, "We do not anticipate that, sir." That's how you talk to idiot bosses. After the congressional hearing, it is rumored that he got two drinks.

[@tomholroyd7519]

I'm asking, where in the world did that opening video come from

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

It's the largest super yacht that ever sank. The ship is called Yogi and was "the most innovative yacht of the year" before it went down in the Aegean Sea off the coast of Greece back in 2012. Still a lot of unanswered questions as to why it sank.

[@tomholroyd7519]

10:17 seriously (yo Gav this dude! bring your fast cam) but can you get Dan in there

[@the_samsung_simp]

[@ANATURALDREWSASTER]

Can’t the aluminum potentially weaken your chamber? Is the chamber aluminum?

[@friedmule5403]

Congratulation:-) I know it's impossible, but it would be amazing to see the reverse. What would happen if you had an open bottle that got closed under pressure and then fast got under normal pressure? How does a "blobfish" really look like in the deep?

[@wozzie1492]

Cheers

[@mikegilgenbach4840]

How dare you not submerge a slice of sub cake.

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

Honestly, the thought did cross my mind.

[@trekkie1701c]

Need to do a collab with Slo Mo Guys.

[@TheDeepDiveLLC]

would be cool to see other things like phones and refrigerator parts that would be on board

[@alexross26]

you should see how an LED bulb performs too

[@technicalfool]

And now I have to wonder whether a fruit cake can be rapidly turned into a rich fruit cake with the addition of brandy at abyssal pressures.

[@unmanaged]

And mercury contamination?

[@krispycool1]

Edison did not invent incandescent bulbs he was just the first to mass market them.

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

That's correct... But he did "introduce" them to the public.

[@krispycool1]

@@TheDropzoneChannel He actually did not invent anything, he just took credit for other peoples work, his main talents were marketing and theft.

[@daviddavidson2357]

Implode a blendtek total blender. You might need to seal it better, but they never blended a crowbar so their blender needs imploded.

[@eastonvonschist2283]

Anything will implode if deep enough.

[@tiinpa7093]

Great video as always, but who asked for music during the regular speed crushing?!

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

You can't have a party without music.

[@tiinpa7093]

@ but you can’t hear them straining under the pressure either 🥹

[@TheDropzoneChannel]

@@tiinpa7093 I tried not to mask it over the cracking too much but point taken. I won't put music on objects with interesting sounds like when I start crushing composites such as fiberglass, Kevlar and carbon fiber.

[@Sonnell]

That sound is not the true sound of the implosions. They do not represent how it truly sounds, but the result of a different method, probably some pitch corrected one. Use a proper audio editing software, perhaps record the sound separately directly to a raw wav format at high sampling rate, and do not use any fft based speed changing method. This is just terrible currently.

[@JumpingSpiderDesign]

If you stacked up all your subs, and put them in the Mariana Trench, they'd be really really dead... mostly.
