Why Underwater Welding Is The Deadliest Job In The World | Risky Business | Business Insider

You should think about why you don't get it.

Well until your proposed R&D investments bear fruit, you will continue not to get it.

The bends is nothing like a heart attack. It's when the water pressure makes the nitrogen in your blood turn into a soluble gas. If you come up too fast then that soluble nitrogen turns into gas causing your blood to boil. Just like opening a can of coke. The pressure changes instantly so the carbon dioxide that's dissolved in the coke turns into gas That's how they describe the bends.

At 6:46 - he's literally touching the tip of the electrode as he replaces it & no issue (& yes it is still live), even if he touches the tip of the electrode whilst its welding, the chances of death are low as the anode/pile are the grounded to the welding circuit & the current is more likely to still flow directly through them. The danger is if his hand or body touches the anode or pile whilst he is not welding & the electrode is close to shorting through him into the anode or pile closing the welding circuit - just don't ever make personal physical contact with the grounded welding metal. I use to do this type of work & sometimes if the grounding surface is so so, your teeth would vibrate/shatter from the electric current flowing as you weld.

Spending 90 minutes at 10 minutes is nothing crazy. The risk of DCS(the nitrogen thing they explained) are definitely greatly exaggerated in this video. If you work in recreational diving, diving two hours a day to deeper than 10m is common. Also just wearing two sets of gloves and a "standard wetsuit" seems reasonable for Indonesia which has tropical waters. Water in the US will be much colder.

A slot would likely let water get in between the two different metals and defeat the purpose of the sacrificial anode. They need to be in sufficient contact to allow them to interact electrochemically. On a smaller scale it can be done with wires, I'm not sure if that would work on something this big or if more contact is needed, but wires would need to be spot welded anyway.

It’s easy to say that from a western perspective, but I salute the guy for doing anything to provide for his kids

[@AutoPil0t459]

He seems to be doing fine and the kids as well considering their mother and his wife just died ,

[@VintageYakyu]

You sound old and boring.

[@Dee-ye2dk]

Sounds like a poor perspective. Men don’t get time to rest. We don’t have that luxury. The world depends on us! 80-90% of the worlds infrastructure is maintained by men. Let me say it again, maintained by men. Not women. He has to provide for his family. It doesn’t stop! There’s no welfare for men as it is for women.

He doesn't have the luxury of grieving

Ok the 1st thing the diver does is the vid is grabbing the stinger and pull out the electrode.

[@devanman7920]

And if anything happens to the oil companies will cover it up and give the families nothing like the Paria disaster.

Hallelujah!!! I’m blessed and favored with $60,000 every week! Now I can afford anything and support the work of God and the church. For Your glory, LORD! HALLELUJAH!

[@JenniferLyn1919]

Oh really? Tell me more! Always interested in hearing stories of successes.

[@AmandaNicole__0]

This is what Ana Graciela Blackwelder does, she has changed my life.

[@AmandaNicole__0]

After raising up to 60k trading with her, I bought a new house and car here in the US and also paid for my son’s (Oscar) surgery. Glory to God.shalom.

[@KevinRichard-zf5hx]

I know Ana Graciela Blackwelder, and I have also had success...

[@KevinRichard-zf5hx]

Absolutely! I have heard stories of people who started with little or no knowledge but managed to emerge victorious thanks to Ana Graciela Blackwelder.

You don’t know what you’re talking about. If you use a line from the surface of the water it’s basically impossible to get the bends because it’s at the same pressure as the air is just above the water . No? Correct me if I’m wrong .

It's an anode. Not an an node. BI narrators seem to be the worst when is comes to simple mispronunciations. I notice it in most of your videos. It's little stuff like this that makes me question what else is inaccurate in the script and keeps me from sharing what would otherwise be decent content.

[@medicinaljourney5505]

15k rupiah is only .92 dollars us so these guys are making 15k usd.

[@cachalotreal]

Narrator makes cilegon sound cool

[@lewisheart]

Im not a diver, welded a few times. Almost certain that rubber, a powerful insulator... doesnt conduct any electricity, and their gloves are made from rubber. Case closed.

[@momoniji6439]

😂 Ain't no one going to a Hyperbaric chamber every 3 months just because. You're diving 30 feet it's not that serious on top of that do you know how much a Hyperbaric chamber costs?

[@Obscure19]

I highly doubt the electric shock you could receive from the welding would "kill you instantly" lol. AFAIK, these guys are just doing stick welding but underwater, and I've shocked myself in the past when doing stick welding and I did in fact not die or cause any damage.

[@rillawhat8142]

15k American or Indonesian dollars?

[@zimbeyond]

the money you say they get a week is that before taxes or what ? This does not make sense

[@dawsonmod]

Not gonna talk about his his wife passed away a week before… so sad 😢

[@courtstenn]

Never dive when you have a cold or cavity, that’s one of the rules

[@natalietsang88]

What about eye protection?

[@aberdeendeltaforce]

I know an underwater welder, he drives a Ferrari, has a massive house and is due to retire at 42 with enough money for him and his family to comfortably see the rest of their days out……however dangerous it is, it’s worth it.❤
