Subo Kayak Submarine

[@Skymaxy]

Not just an idea but a working concept, no CGI. Formidable realisation and also your craft is unique. I build Aeroplanes so I understand the technical problems you have overcome. Just achieving Neutral Buoyancy is a real challenge in a lightweight craft, Congratulations! Please call it the "Nautilus", it looks just like it.

[@brenoe]

To call it that, he would have to kill a swedish journalist.

[@topsecret1837]

brenoe To be entirely fair the original idea is older than public domain allows in any country with a sense of decency, but Regardless, your point is valid.

[@edstud1]

Would love some verbal detail explaining design processes.

[@Captain_Of_A_Starship]

Fin propulsion is a nice touch.

[@epicninja9303]

BenjaminFranklin99 It was using the Kelpy Effect. Look it up.

[@pixelspring]

I am awesomely happy that you made this. I had a dream of doing this with my kayak only today - except mine would likely leak and buckle under pressure. Very nice custom build !! .

[@RobbsHomemadeLife]

it is videos like this one that makes me continue to love KZbin. I can't wait to see more of your submarine. Thanks for making and sharing!

Imagine you're hanging out at the beach and this guy just surfaces out of nowhere, paddles in, and says "sup"

That was the neatest thing i have ever seen . Thanks for sharing

Olivier Feuillette nous fait rêver... et à sa manière, si envoûtante, il concrétise nos envies d'aventures lues dans "Tintin et Rackham le Rouge" ! C'est simplement sensationnel. Un grand BRAVO et MERCI à lui ! Pierre-Yves Gires

[@locouk]

Dose it have an emergency floatation system?

[@kokopelli314]

What a great project! Congratulations on a successful dive.

[@DjKhaled2408]

Thank you for the feedback.

[@iluvjuly4th165]

+Ridah Parker I'd add to your comments about the inner hull having the same pressure as the outside pressure. That's a key missing detail. I think most people are unaware a properly designed sub needs to have the inner hull maintain the same pressure as at the surface.

[@iluvjuly4th165]

***** Yes, feet are generally ugly and smell.

[@bassel.m2988]

vety nice project!!

[@paulanthony873]

is this a semi wet submarine

[@richrenwick3123]

do u have a blueprint? cause id want to make one!

[@GrillMeACheeseStream]

Love the use of the prop like the tail of a fish/shark/whale. Genius and such a fitting concept.

[@atlas184]

Can you please make a video that discuses how this masterpiece works.

[@ralfiasz]

It's not enough to say that I'm speechless. Hybrid technology at it's best!

[@Kayakdude]

Subo, the kayak submarine. This is a really cool invention. kayaking is more versatile than I expected.

[@oceanchaser]

Very inteligent to design and build something that's sealed and holds back so much water presure . I'm impressed

[@ianburnham]

reminds me of the jules verne nautilus. working on the plans to build myself something similar, hopefully in the next few years.

[@mrnickbig1]

I love the propulsion system. I had been kicking around the idea of using diving fins for propulsion for about 20 years.

[@icarolearningtofly]

You did it yourself?..... congratulations man.... .you are great!

[@henningklaveness7082]

One of the few times I saw something on youtube and thought to myself "I'd never want to try that". Kudos for the enormous balls needed to get in that thing.

[@TheReal_Georgewallis]

This is my motivation to get through the week.

[@rb30athorn]

WOW! I guess pedals somewhere round the feet for that sculling paddle! Stealthy

[@deburgh65]

So cool! Imagine diving this in a clear tropical sea...wow

[@moogybannahilstopaflingon6803]

Dude...such an awesome video! This is what KZbin was created for! Exploration of everything that humans can do. Bravo...

[@hybriddyneguy]

Suddenly I feel sane! Thank you for posting this wonderful video!

[@danielchadwick8513]

The changes that you have made improved and progressed since your first build over 9 years ago is what has got your design to where it is today and that is what you should legally register and put into production as your own business

[@littlebull8881]

Well done Olivier, awesome build and free to go where many of us can't. How long can it stay under

[@rodneyjohnston6280]

kayak submarine is so cool that is the most intelligent underwater vessel that anybody ever made

[@hkm_865]

At the beginning of this vid I was skeptical but that's actually super impressive!

[@michaelrussell4561]

Amazing creation!!! Whats the deepest dive you have completed so far? I would love more information on the build. Its could use a little bit more sanding, but looks great.

[@DrBleck35]

This is brilliant. As long as the air inside the hull is the same as the water pressure outside the hull, nothing blows out or leaks. Freaking brilliant.

[@curtismarean6963]

Coolest thing I've seen in a long time! I like this guy's invention! Lot of work went into this.

[@1stDayon]

Needs a rebreather to reduce those bubbles.

[@segitarius3272539]

Sir what is the name of this Soundtrack ?? Your sub-kayak is awesome but the music in background makes me watch this video several times a day :p

[@BJ-bw2sg]

Extraordinaire. Bravo Olivier !

[@maddocmucmaddocmuc5341]

C'est super impressionant. J'adore la propulsion avec cette petite palme en arrière.

[@eerojlehtinen]

Unreal Oli! Keep coming back to the surface!

[@kenpole3058]

Reminds me of a comic strip in the UK I used to follow decades ago; the central character was a boy in the bubble canopy of a robotic swordfish.

[@richardmoody5172]

Very ingenious! Bravo for an excellent example of hard work and bravery. I like the propulsion fin, too. I am curious about max. depth and how the seawater tanks are emptied to ascend back to the surface?

[@boobye6305]

[@burbman60]

Pretty cool project for a guy to build and sail. Kudos to you!!!

[@edstud1]

Amazing vessel. Wow!. Must be a genious to engineer such a craft.

[@jdmdealers]

Really impressive idea. A personal mini sub/ kayak for special needs. Now if it could be made affordable it might catch on. Could even have some military purposes.

[@iluvjuly4th165]

+jdmdealers It's not impressive. It's wet-less scuba diving, which means you can get the bends, unlike a real submarine. The pressure in the inner hull is the same as the outside pressure by design. The midsection is not super strong to have the same pressure as the surface pressure. source for that assertion: www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/10/25/kayak-submarine-olivier-feuillette_n_4163742.html

[@jdmdealers]

ILuvJuly4th- Well, I agree it is not high tech. But, it did impress me & that is my humble opinion. Not many people design and make their own private transportation products from scratch. It takes a person with drive, talent, and determination. Many traits that seem to be declining.

[@iluvjuly4th165]

+jdmdealers Well, most new inventions will be occurring in a lab nowadays. The basic discoveries have been exhausted. That's probably why you feel the way you do.

[@jdmdealers]

ILuvJuly4th- There are always new ideas and products to create threw life. I am sure other more great ideas and products will be made in time. It is rather refreshing to see a individuals with a creative mind and the ability to invent and produce something that functions. I see this feat as much more difficult than a regular company with unlimited man power and money. You just do not see many gifted people doing everything to produce their own working product like this one. This is just my humble opinion.

[@iluvjuly4th165]

jdmdealers I disagree wholeheartedly. I think most engineers like myself would cancel this project if the surface pressure could not be maintained inside the cabin at all times. It's a waste of time and money to build a wetless scuba unit (because you have to monitor depth/time there at all times plus have a slow return to the surface) that happens to operate like a submarine. This is not an engineering marvel. It's like building and flying an airplane that cannot be controlled on its 3 axis (Wright Brothers competitors). I don't see methodical problem solving in this video to maintain inherent control and safety in it's creation process by design.

[@King-qv1pd]

Lucky for him Sharks didn't see him. That would be very scary running into a shark in this. Pretty cool and great idea for engine. It's similar to a sharks fin and the way the fin moves.

[@rubenskiii]

Not really. Sharks would maybe be curious but they wouldn't attack it. Maybe if they see him from uderneath and misidentify him as a snack but it has to be a freaking big shark to take a bite out of that.

[@DavidDAVID-di8dt]

bravo Olivier, j'adore ton idée

[@darrenmartin2195]

Really impressed with your work. Thanks for posting.

[@ThaBoris]

Wow, the fin part made my jaw drop, i wouldn't come up with that. Good Job!

[@drevilatwork]

i was sarcastic until a saw that it propels itself by fliping it's fish tail. nice machine!

[@trangenusa]

Okay, that is PRETTY KOOL, and the music in the video is pretty Kool also, Great Job!

[@towhichenddrops1912]

What an awesome build! Would you consider posting the schematics?

[@aryanprivilege9651]

Whom?

[@TheBurman]

you teased us with a video 5 months ago, now we all want more from you. Who's fault is that mate.. ??? Well done with the sub. I don't care it goes slower than a walking pace but as far as I know while the whole planet walks, only you dive with your kayak. I guess that put you in the same league with Wrights aka Wright Brothers. Now can I at least see more teaser clips of your submarine .

[@cedricdef4640]

It's pretty amazing how that propulsion system gets the job done

[@andrewsullivan2110]

i like that it doesn't need propellers. you can just use foot pedals for the "tail".

[@Mainbusfail]

That was brilliant! I truly enjoyed watching this

[@TheMrMikeo]

Oli that is absolutely awesome :-), keep us posted with your next projects.

[@jclayton59466]

Thats fantastic! Well done on the build!

[@jamesmaxwell2294]

OMG that is seriously bloody clever Olli. You're some kind of evil genius. Brilliant.

[@scrammy]

Cool prototype. You need to power this thing to make it a beast.

[@BrooklynAvenue]

If he works out a way to attach wings to it and make it fly, he will be the greatest man ever.

[@thargitai]

Your genius knows no bounds. Amazing!

[@ИгорьОсипов-ы4в]

May God bless you and your loved ones and keep you! How is your underwater kayak currently traveling underwater?

[@mindofganza]

I was impressed to see that thing float.

[@stephsail]

Superbe ! La bricole a du génie, parfois. Et de cette bricole découle un nouvel usage. On dirait ici que l’outil crée la fonction... Je suis désormais vos évolutions de près, et en particulier le système de propulsion qui me semble être le point le plus remarquable du projet.

[@AlaskaSkidood]

You're gonna be in the next James Bond movie, dude.

[@zanejoseph627]

Can you do another video on it possible a walk through

[@DerekPetersonLives]

I want to know how that propulsion fin works! Great idea!

[@bailey7175]

Very Very Cool, You must be a scuba diver to put all that together:)

[@Aluminata]

Scares the hell out me-absolutely incredible. DAMN!

[@julesboss79]

this song is just amazing man

[@GaryMcKinnonUFO]

That's bloody amazing! Do you need a special license and/or regulations? What's that swinging rudder thing at the back, stability control ?

[@topsecret1837]

This craft gives me a sense of optimism regarding the possibility of shrinking its size; ie. creating a smaller craft based on the foundation of a recumbent tricycle, and/or a Velomobile (a human powered land vehicle based on the recumbent design but with an shroud completely covering the entire frame). The idea would be making the shell of said velomobile airtight against water pressure; a propeller at the rear could power the craft in the water. In addition the wheels at the bottom could be retracted into the craft and sealed in compartments, as well as having the nose holding the front wheel rotate until it is directly upwards, creating a frontal dorsal fin or sorts.

[@zacharymohrmann4329]

I think it to be a pretty good design...! I enjoyed your video presentation, and would have liked to have heard more about it, and as well as other questions which I would think the more intelligent viewers would have asked... But thank your for sharing with us your marvelous Kayak Submarine...

[@Scoutss21962]

Inspirational! Thanks for sharing.

[@ocaladiver]

I so want to build one! Anyone going in one of these should be a properly trained and experienced scuba diver though. I would recommend some sort of overhead environment certification (i.e. wreck diving).

[@SA-vh7hz]

What a fantastic machine!

[@YourDailyLaughz]

DIY nightmare coffin

[@Scoutss21962]

Absolutely brilliant!

[@TheThreatActor]

this is giving me subnautica vibes

[@CrowTitanium]

I'm working on a small submarine that's similar in some ways - it's driven & steered by a fin like this one, though I was only planning on shallow dives. This is some machine.

[@skeeter7932]

Do you get wet in there? It looked dry but when you surfaced you looked like you were soaked. And do you have any worries that the tail thing whipping around like that will get stuck and then you will be stuck?

[@coacoamclaughlin7598]

You should use escaping air bubbles to turn a small propeller or generate electricity to turn a small electric motor to propel forward.

[@DirkaDirka07]

pretty sweet. needs a rebreather option and a prop would probably be more efficient

[@razzlevision3562]

That was thoroughly entertaining an awesome video

[@AntoniodaPisa]

Sei un grande....mitico!

[@topsecret1837]

The geometry of the design as well as it’s use of buoyancy might be something to be tried with retracting wheels at the bottom. Essentially a go-anywhere, anytime vehicle. A true Jeep.

[@chrisguidry3852]

Pretty awesome. Looks like a lot of dedication. How much does it weigh? Battery Driven?
