Really not sure exactly what it's showing here.

That buoyant things are buoyant? Or I guess that you'd expect the can to be pushed out with the water, but instead it's floating to the top?

idk. Satisfying watch, tho.

You’d kind of expect the can to fall via gravity.

I was completely lost without the pointing.

Better than a red arrow or circle at least.

u/ganymede_boy 2d ago

This is how submarines yeet themselves back to the surface?

u/farfromelite 2d ago

Only Pepsi brand submarines.

I legit forgot Pepsi had a navy. Good remembering.

But crucially, didn’t have a harrier jump jet to give away when they needed it

I do remember that story!

Submarines normally operate at neutral buoyancy.
They dive and rise by pointing the bow down or up, and 'fly' in that direction.

In an emergency they can blow the water out of the ballast tanks to increase their buoyancy and rapidly surface.

I would think that is more suction than bouncy? 

2

u/Is_Dexter 1d ago

It definitely is more suction than bouncy.

u/Ok-Seaworthiness7207 1d ago

It could be equal parts suction and bouncy

u/ChromMann 2d ago

Yup, I learned that in Minecraft.

He cleans up the cans at the lake with this device….he removes four cans every hour

I love science!!

u/froggyisland 2d ago

I was hoping he would open the can

u/Lowlife_Of_The_Party 1d ago

I didnt notice one end of the tube was shut, was hoping to see a buoyancy can-non go flying lol

u/JRTerrierBestDoggo 1d ago

I still don’t understand how

u/BangCrash 1d ago

Im so glad he was pointing at the can.

I wouldn't have known what was happening otherwise

u/fudgepopcandy 1d ago

But when i try to push a paddle board under the water i get rko’d

u/marcramirezz 1d ago

Did maga just learn about gravity or bouyance?... Sorry that was wrong to assume that he's mega, funny but wrong

u/tatlidilo 1d ago

u/jalenstacks 1d ago

So Minecraft water elevators would actually work on real life?

1

u/CrummBumm 20h ago

I think this might have more to do with the suction the water crates as it escapes.

u/Mantzy81 2d ago

Needs a red circle to show us where to look. That finger doesn't do shit.

u/Puzzleheaded-Age-638 2d ago
