when a man tells another man, "I'm here to see your Submarine"

wow, hater nation is crazy here,LOL.... soo much negative comments about this and that. how about you people put up your own videos of your home build submersible. OH yeah, you don't have one,LOL..SMH.... true, it's sketchy built at best, and needs a lot of refinement and redesign, but this 18 year old dude pulled it off, which is more than most can say. Keep up the good work Justin!!!!!!! whether or not his parents have the capital to fund this project is not our problem or concern. I rather look at the young American inventor/ tinkerer with the forward thinking and mindset that this country needs again. as a former US Navy submariner, I will say again it's friggin sketchy,LOL, but I approve 100%.

I wonder if he realizes how important neutral bouyancy is now. I suggest a dedicated emergency blow system for his ballast tanks. Redundancy is your friend on a submarine. This kid is pretty resourceful. May you keep your dive to surface ratio 1:1!

I hope this kid doesn't fall through the cracks but rather is offered plenty of opportunities in his future. We need engineering minds like him

Keep up the work, great job and great to see that you seem to be enjoying engineering type stuff, never let anyone tell you you cannot do anything.

this young man's dad is amazing he stayed very calm which kept his son calm

i wish my parents is this supportive.

Personally, I would have gone with a propane tank for the hull and use 4 small compressor air tanks as ballast tanks. Weld everything together so no flimsy little hoses will pop off. Electronic solenoid valves for normal operation, but manual ball valves in case of a malfunction. Of course, always check blow bottle pressure before a dive, etc etc etc. That's just me though, I wouldn't want one of these to become my underwater coffin.

they should’ve had this kid design the titanic sub lmao

is everybody hating just because you dont have the courage to do such things? even when youre not rich save money ask investors...

All that family money, should have got better Hot Glue Sticks lol

I'd love to see Justin learn to weld metal. This guy is brilliant.

This kid is going to go places. I can tell.

Needs a manner of self rescue. The sub should have positive buoyancy on its own, then add a ballast weight on the bottom that can be positively dropped from inside the cockpit. If you cannot surface for some reason, drop the ballast and the sub floats to the surface all by itself. The ballast itself should be disposable, something cheap and heavy, such as concrete blocks or a concrete casting, no big deal to make another one.

Boy genius, it's nice to know this smart kid is an American!

I'm not saying that this is not impressive, however this is NOT a submarine. a submarine doesn't have any surface connections. this is more of a semi-submersible given that it requires a surface connection.

That is very Impressive! Good job!

This guy has alot of potential make this a inspiration people that has no life if you have a talent show it to the world

somebody give that kid a scholarship, I bet he would totally be a mechanical engineering major.

Great idea, just too much family money. It's obvious from his house. Man what I would do with that kind of money, eh?! But I do agree, more of America's kids need to have minds like this guy.

it is not about money. many rich man can't build like that. salute you. young man.

I can't decide which "invention" is more amazing, the haphazard floatable culvert glued together or the lawn chair strung from the ceiling and covered in christmas lights...

Why is this guy getting so much publicity? he's got a lot of expensive high tech equipment in a plastic culvert that's been glued together. No disrespect kid, it's cool, but design the hull in solid works and have it made out of something like, I dunno, steel? if you're going to spend that much money at least do it right.

Western kind are incredibly good at building things and inventing things.

You're looking at a future rocket scientist. Kids like him are gonna fly us to the next galaxy one day.

Cool topic for a show but way too many close ups and cut and takes in the filming! You can hardly see what is going on.

Remember that one realy nerdy kid in the front of the class. Well here he is.....and hes pretty fuckin smart

I'd like to see his current model, 6 years later

Im building something similiar .. using using a double hull feature using 44 gallon oil drums and carbon fiber coating.

Too cool, nice work, don't stop.

great job young man...

that young man is going places

I am so jealous right now

Well Done Young Man

This is how American youth needs to be, we have forgotten what got us to the best country in the world INGENUITY!!

Daddy was there

If we all had parents that had a boat house

how does he know it goes 30 feet if hes only gone 15? yeah it took two weeks to design, did he even look at any submarines? looking at it id say he has no clue on how submarines are constructed. why on earth would you need five ballast tanks? for real, subs that use ballast tanks (i know of at least one research sub that uses a mercury balancing system to submerge, its pretty fancy) have only two, saddle type tanks or a singular tank that either wraps all around it as a outer hull or sits at the very bottom, saddle tanks being the most stable, the more tanks the more issues you can have. okay he has a tank malfunction, why didn't he build in some sort of realise so that if a tank did not empty he could just jettison it so he could resurface? if he's some sort of boy genius like he's portrayed and he built in so many "systems" you think he would have thought of that. to all the haters out there who say stuff like "where's your homemade submarine?" its on paper and small models until i can work out all the problems (like that) and make a SAFE working submarine.

I am impressed thought maybe a aluminum for mine due to the NIGHT TERRORS I would invest in with that kind of power of my homemade submarine like no other like bolt screws dept check and I am anchored so it's not really at a thoughtful pace to drive it at but I did purchase the magazine for the coupon an it operational from a private schooner boat maybe 10k dollars CONGRATS

Fuck this - It's like being trapped in your own tomb !!!

Justin looks like the dude from jarhead if he was young

Does he know about pressure and all that

you guys should do a story on the kids that are making mini nuclear power plants.

obviously they just added a bit of drama, which was orchestrated by BlazeTV haha!

MIT guaranteed lol

most people of any age could probably do this,not everyone has rich parents

Justin I just saw this video and don't let those negative Justin want a beees. bother you, keep a it and I'll remind these want a beees. if they even know how many times it took Edison to come up with the wright combination for the filament of the light bulb. can't wait to see more.

No I haven't finished the video yet but this has to be a wet sub. Edit: WTF

Kudus for the energy and skill it took to build something like this.....but.... So, show of hands...Who would trust thier son's life to a submarine made up of glued together plastic iregation pipe? Sorry, not me...And what's with all the cutesy flashing lights? Plus it needs built-in redundancy for key systems, after all, it just might save your life....

says kid even tho he is 18 years old

Whn people have money they do any shit...

JEWTASTIC

Ah the nice toys kids can make when they grow up with a dad who got $

It's an impressive thing to build but a complete deathtrap, if it got stuck in a few feet underwater you would not be able to open the hatch to escape due to water pressure. Not something anyone should consider going in

This thing looks like the most unreliable boat I've ever seen

Make emergency weight drops

This is not cool. He should have that problem already straightened out.

I met that guy

I'm going to build one

everyones in aw about a tube with some control like i could build a proper sub in one in a year an I'm 14 I'm not trying to brag but this is just a tube

Coming up Justin dies

"Kid"

i say he needs helium tanks on the sides to fill the air tanks.

I wish I had money ;-;

Why is he so high

Im sorry but. im Sure poor kids could build things like this if they had proper guidance growing up. and Money From Daddy! Rich Kid Toys.

This little rich kid didn't build this by himself. He doesn't even use decent ideas or terms when he got stuck underwater. He's a poser pretending to b smart. Thumbs down

Man if I had money...

Guys. He's rich.

2 weeks of design... pff. guaranteed failure.

the host is as talentless as you can find'em on youtube. this kid deserves better!

Come on man. Do your research and learn to weld. Build a good hull out of steel.

Why is this guy getting so much publicity? he's got a lot of expensive high tech equipment in a plastic culvert that's been glued together. No disrespect kid, it's cool, but design the hull in solid works and have it made out of something like, I dunno, steel? if you're going to spend that much money at least do it right.
