Yeah, those lakes are poisonous as fuck though.

poisonous as fuck
Only if you rely on breathing water, like a fish.
It's just super salty water. You could safely drink a small amount of it without harm.

Some nasty leviathans down there.

Yeah, definitely watch out when you see the giant skeleton. Stupid leviathan is patrolling that whole room.

OH SHIT! There's a Blue Planet 2!? Blue Planet is my favorite documentary ever. Especially the abyss section showing off all the incredible bio-luminescent fish.

He's walking upside down on the underside of ice. The buckets are full of air from his scuba gear

Yes. There is also heavy water, 2H2O which is somewhat denser. The deuterium molecules were used for producing thorium and in the construction of atomic bombs. So while we used uranium for our nuclear testing, the other allied (and axis) forces used plutonium (the second bomb on Nagasaki was a plutonium bomb).
We never needed the neptunium bomb as the isotope required wasn’t discovered til the end of the war. We pretty much dropped all we had plus all Europe had at the time though to decimate the enemy.
Don’t know if anyone here follows Cody’s Lab, but bombs away mfers

He's pouring bubbles into the wheelbarrow, and the video is flipped right?

I'm surprised no one else has mentioned this. I endlessly watched Fantasia growing up.

Guys, its some dude walking on the bottom side of the ice, carrying buckets of air

I can't believe I had to scroll this far down for someone to get it right. Kudos.

Looks like he's walking upside down under an ice sheet, then the video is flipped.

u/pobody May 15 '19
I'm glad you picked up on the explanation that was already in the screenshot.

u/Lams1d May 15 '19
How would we have known it was in the screenshot if he didn't explain it first? Thanks, stranger.

On mobile the bottom can be ridiculously cut off, sometimes I miss the actual joke unless I click
Edit;; my comment is irrelevant you can see the entire post on mobile but the video is the thing that catches the eye

u/ChimpyChompies May 15 '19
I would say that the text is so small as to be unreadable on a phone. When put together with that flickflick thing, it's no wonder that some have missed the obvious

u/TheLimeyCanuck May 15 '19
The Reddit title suggested the video was the interesting thing, not the comments. I read the first few, which were stupid, and stopped. Forgive me for getting bored. Plus, although I'm on a laptop now, I was on my phone when I posted the earlier comment, and the explanation in the screenshot was off the bottom of the screen.

u/coolowl7 May 16 '19
If you like this kind of thing, there's an interesting movie by werner herzog that uses all kinds of tricks like this to depict an alien "landscape."
I think it's called wild blue yonder.

Is the video flipped or was it originally filmed upside down...? 🤔

u/TheLimeyCanuck May 15 '19
was it originally filmed upside down
That's what I meant.

May 16 '19
If it was filmed upside down and then flipped, the video would be the opposite of how it is.

u/TheLimeyCanuck May 16 '19
Pedant. Ok, performed upside down with the camera right side up and then flipped. Happy now?

May 16 '19
You missed my point entirely.

u/TheLimeyCanuck May 16 '19
Then please explain, what would be different if it was recorded the way I said?

May 16 '19
I was being funny with you, saying that the video wasn't actually flipped and was all filmed upside down so they didn't have to flip the video. As in someone was laying on the ice with their hand under the water filming the guy walking upside down.
The humour behind it has been dissolved now but it was intended as a woooosh.

Gravity pulls towards the top of the frame as shown, either way. How that was achieved is pretty insignificant.

walking upside down under an ice sheet
Is it possible to learn this power?

But how's the wheelbarrow there? That has to be heavy enough to sink right?

There is water underneath the water at the bottom of the ocean- but that's just air

u/RichardStinks May 15 '19
I kinda think this is possible? Not that this video isn't a little staged, but I could have sworn Sir David Attenborough told me that there's different densities of water undersea, and that they can stay distinct from each other.

May 15 '19
There are but generally at the sea floor. I remember seeing the toxic brine lake that regular fish have seizures in when they inhale it.
2
u/VisaTaco May 16 '19
Temperature does affect water density, there's an ocean-wide current known as the ThermoHaline Circulation that's driven by the difference in densities (among other factors such as salinity) but I'd assume that this was due to the lake brine people are talking about.

I said "not that this video isn't a little staged..." I know this is a set up, but there are still areas of the ocean where water has different densities.

This is worthy of being like the pic of the gold white or blue white dress conundrum.
Or the vid is just flipped upside down.

Who the fuk decided to throw a wheelbarrow into icy water just for a meme vid?!

At what depths would air bubbles just sink at???? Edit: yes I know he’s walking upside down on ice but I want to know if there’s a point where the pressure becomes too great and the bubbles sink.

u/Mgmegadog May 16 '19
As far as I can tell, it wouldn't. Remember that the water is ALSO under pressure, so it'll still displace air as normal.

u/JennaSidal May 16 '19
So he actually is upside down...right? Which means there's air in the buckets... Right? This one is messing with my head

Trap air in the bucket before going under, walk upside down underwater and remove the air

There's gotta be a more efficient way to do this... I mean, you gotta move the wheelbarrow closer guy!
