The problem is that some people have expected systems such as Recco to be a sufficient safety precaution when skiing, but that is not the case. The system is so useless that big brands such as Norrøna no longer use Recco reflective tech in their clothing anymore
@@richardhltrp1791 If Americans and Europeans do not want immigrants on their borders, then they need to demand their governments remove their militaries and the many terrorist groups aka ISIS from the countries of the immigrants. Trust me, they would much prefer to have their homes, family members murdered by US tax dollars and their lives back. Otherwise, Americans and Europeans are responsible for providing for these people.
I regard myself as a fairly intelligent guy - but when I see where engineering is these days I realize I'm hopelessly behind the curve. Some truly amazing stuff here.
I wouldnt say that as such.. Alot of these inventions are prob where people have had this expierence and therefor commit into doing the pojects.. I have seen alot of adverts where people started to pay Air Ambulance because they needed 1 day and saw how good the service was.. They admitted they wasnt intrested in them, untel they needed it..
You get good at what you do. If you enjoy designing certain type of technology, educate yourself enough about what can be done and what not with present day material and manufacturing techniques, you can become quite skilled at it. If you're _fairly intelligent_ like you claim, you'll grasp the concepts better than a dimwit. Good for you.
That "Kingii" is pretty brilliant. Sometimes a drowning will happen because the victim is disoriented, and can't even figure out which was is up, so I could see this actually saving a life. I wonder if it really works.
I'm guessing it won't. Why? cause those who need it won't believe they do. Drownings on Australian beaches are common, but almost universally tourists who ignored advice to swim within the flags or drunk people swimming after dark at unpatrolled beaches. Neither of those groups would buy or wear this device
I'm a 70 year old woman whose father bought me subscriptions to Popular Science and Popular Mechanics when I was very young. I dreamed of 'dreaming up' and realizing exactly the type of inventions shown here. I'm still so inclined but on a much smaller level......like small inventions I design for simple things in my life. Thanks for this video. In my next life.............I Will make it happen
Lots of things do not make it past the "kick starter" phase. They have a product, even a good, polished product, but do not end up finding a solid marketplace. Many of the links are to other promo videos, but not to a company website, let alone anywhere you can make a purchase or find company contact info, sadly.
An entirely uneducated guess, but could it be to do with conductivity? White reflects heat, which would prevent the heat leaving your body in the snow? Very much a guess
@@adeshyrag You are correct, white reflects heat, while black absorbs heat... the vest is designed to provide oxygen for avalanche victims... it's colour should contrast against the snow for easier or quick identification.
Engineer Here... 1. Pretty good invention, it can help people only in the daytime though, I would re-engineer it for nighttime rescues. 2. The finder, it's not a new invention, it been around since 1999. 3. Earthquake Table good invention, but the con is that most commercial buildings have steel enforcements weighing 5 times that. which would still crush a child easily. 4. Firefighter backpack, the issues lies in the detection of flames not the water. You can have 20 gallons of water surrounding you but if you're trapped by fire, that water won't help. You will still get cooked, wildfire ranging from 25 ft away can cook your skin. Imagine if its close enough to use that backpack. BUT! its probably better to have it than not 5. Although not a bad invention. There are concerns, In the 1960's they use to have these for schools until they realized that if a building is on fire, they would easily pop which is what was happening. So they swapped the plastic out for metal slides on the side of buildings. Overall, it is based on how fast you can get out the house or building before those pop. 6. Snow Backpack: Good, but one problem, hyperthermia can set in around 10 minutes, which can kill you in a hour. When you're under snow it becomes very hard, and smothering to the point that snow is in your nose. you have to dig a space to be able to breathe. The problem lies with hyperthermia and oxygen. not just oxygen. 7. VERY GOOD! invention. The con would be shaking and the speed of the elevator. The wires could snap sending a person to there death. but never the less its better to have than not have. But there will be a lot of maintenance to keep those functional during downtimes. 8. ROCk barrier: Pay attention to the term " rock" ...boulders would smash right through that easily, landslides as well. Rocks weigh about 20 pounds only, 9. Philippines boulder system: The vegetation would allow the landslide to happen a lot easier. Bad invention, but not the worst 10. Frozen ice life raft: It's based around timing, when people fall through ice you would still have to get off that raft to save them, you have 1 minute before there legs give out and they stop kicking and sink... for someone that is panicking they will sink a lot faster around 30 seconds. If the raft inflates in 30 seconds, then you see where I am going with this. Drop the inflate down to 10 seconds and you'll be fine. 11. Waffle raft: GOOD< BUT ITS ABOUT TIMING..Timing ..Timing...but still good 12. Barrier: FLooding waters can get up too 4ft in 30 minutes, not as good 13. Great invention 14. Good Invention 15. Ok, but flood waters contain glass, sharp objects, sticks, and even metal. 16. Diver inflation device: Will more than likely fit white waters and rivers.. Lakes, oceans, and beaches. NO! it would be a terrible invention the faster you rise underwater the faster nitrogen can kill you. Decompression illness. 17. Irrelevant invention 18. I am lost, Yes cement, brick, always dilutes fire, it can't burn. 19. Not high enough flood breaker system.
earthquake table, that steel reinforcing is to stop collapses in earthquakes though right? So this device is not designed for use in those buildings but rather for buildings that don't have that & are not designed to properly withstand earthquakes as a cheaper alternative to building to developed world codes. I do wonder what happens if objects don't hit it square on though 4. you need to update your info to climate change conditions lol it's 100 metres/300 feet from the fire that people's lungs melt nowadays 12. same thing, a couple of years back fire fighters in Australia had to drive street to street with sirens on & evacuate warnings cause they had told everyone it was fine till morning but it wasn't. Within 30 minutes water had risen WAY more than 4 feet lol. It rose 50 feet within 6 hours in many places, leaving lots of people trapped in & on their roof & near cyclone winds preventing choppers from pulling them off 16. ROFLMFAO! it's not designed for divers! It's designed for people NOT using diving gear, where nitrogen is NOT an issue & besides, nitrogen is not an issue if the person has no air to breathe! They are simply transported to a decompression chamber once brought up to the surface to reverse the bends Very opinionated views, most of them are totally missing the point of the inventions or stuck in "facts" that you believe but have no bearing in the real world. PLENTY of people have survived falls into water from ice for example by simply holding onto the ice until help arrives. There was even a video of a dog that did that, legs were completely gone & dragging behind the dog when they got her out, but she had still managed to hold herself up for 5 hours I think it was until help arrived - and she didn't die of hypothermia in that time, despite it being FAR more of an issue in that setting than it is a person wearing snow gear trapped under snow lol

The firestorm that hit Kingslake in Australia in 2009 (so putting your info more than a decade out of date) was measured to have had the power of 1,500 Hiroshima bombs! It melted any metal or other substances anywhere near it in the same way a nuke does. You cannot get 25 feet from ground zero of a nuclear explosion & you cannot get 25 feet from a modern day, climate change enhanced firestorm!

I did roughly convert to respond to you, assuming you would not have the skills or knowledge to use the international standard measurements, but anyone with competence in any scientific field will always use SI units, NOT the ones you did!
The firefighter backpack isn't meant for that. It's for water access at wildfires where there's a water source, but no hydrants. I saw it used in training once when I was out hiking.
Just look at this stuff our human species create to help save lives. We are truly a caring and inventive race. Unfortunately when it comes to running our world society we are less than capable.
That escape slide is brilliant & comes into the "why haven't we always been doing this?" category. Why wasn't this installed in all buildings after the slide for planes was invented? It's not new tech, just a variation on that tech & no reason it couldn't have been built & installed when plane ones were. Imagine how many people would still be alive today if that had happened
During WW2, the British government issues air raid shelter tables that would protect people if their house was bombed. I once tried to break up a 50 year old example that had been left in a garden since the war. Two of us with sledgehammers barely dented it.
It’s amazing what can be done when you try to save lives with your creativity rather than take lives. Makes you wonder if we could defund the military industrial complex of all the nations and put it to use like this what we can accomplish.
That's a great idea! It's "defund the police" only for countries! 🤡 😂 If only we could all live in the Utopia of everywhere the police have been defunded thus far. ❤ 🤣
Fabulous! There is actually much more good news than bad today, but the bad is more sensational, so that's what we're flooded with. We need a flood barrier for the bad news. Anyhow, what wonderful minds have created this!
That desk doesn't look safe if you take into consideration that it actually comes down further in the Centre.. That means whoevers under it and not flat on the floor will have that weight descend directly on their head. Other than that, I like everything else
the plastic would slide is awesome...as long as there is no fire out the windows below, or not frozen over, or a car parked where its supposed to rest......
The mark 6 gas powered firehose is probably illegal in CA where all of the fires occur, because out insane governing body has and is outlawing the sale of these devices that use gasoline.
well sort of. As I write this, northern Qld Australia is sandbagging for yet another cyclone, with repairs from the Christmas one not even close to complete yet & lots of people having a lot of fear as to how their already damaged buildings are going to fair with another one. I've lost count of how many they've experienced in the last 4 years but it's been a LOT! Many of these devices would actually be extremely cost effective & FAR cheaper than repair costs when not installed. More & more governments are installing climate change mitigation measures because of their reduced costs long term & insurance companies also offer discounts to those that invest in them
2:39 What difference does it make if the concrete is reinforced? It's all about the weight of the object, not the strength. A ton of feathers weighs exactly the same as a ton of "reinforced" concrete
That video clip showing the Recco system is misleading. That's not how the reflector system works and in fact, they're not considered decent methods of SAR anymore and as such, big brands such as Norrøna are no longer using the Recco systems.
Unfortunately I have to walk in a mall since no one is willing to shell out the money for a treadmill. Love that my brothers look out for me. Between “If God is for you, who can be against you” and my brothers watching out for me, I’m about as safe as can be.
They didn't coin the term "Line-thrower" for that first invention. The Maritime industry has had line-throwers for a hundred years, for that exact purpose.
0:50 cool but I hope that smoke is not toxic. Also that thing need a training. For exemple, make sure nobody is in front of you... But seems a good invention IMHO.
Last time I remember Icarus (or Ikaros) wasn't known for throwing ropes but for fashioning bird wings which he attached to his arms. He failed, of course. I'm just waiting for a startup that (re)invents these same wings and tries marketing them to athletes. And fails.
4:00 Slide to safety is interesting. The latest in a historic line of similar ideas such as fireproofed canvas tubes in the 60s, these things somehow haven't got over the parapet still. Capable of being used from the US 4th floor, UK 3rd, I can't find any footage of schoolchildren using them from this height. Or anyone for that matter. Bit sus. Maybe it's very strict regs for kids in ads, who knows?
No one is going to stay in those squares: theyr'e going to get their bodies out of the water and sit on top of it, taking up maybe at least 3 squares per person.
Thought this might be interesting, but when I heard that sing-song, non-serious narration, as in so many RUclips videos that are not worth watching, I bailed immediately.
Teh rescue boat idea is great, but the main problem is the loss of heat, so capturing heat and lifting people up is really important... meh.. some of these are like 1960 inventions, lol
People slam technology for making people mindless. This is the technology I love. It saves lives. Even mindless ones!
The problem is that some people have expected systems such as Recco to be a sufficient safety precaution when skiing, but that is not the case. The system is so useless that big brands such as Norrøna no longer use Recco reflective tech in their clothing anymore

0:42 imagine being wasted and mistaking that for a pitcher of Kool-Aid.
If the survivors on the antitanic get bored they can play chess by swimming.
That's the one I didn't like. Unless on a lake sharks could still get you.
@@lindacop4818 Getting attacked by a shark, let alone killed, is actually extremely unlikely.
Even in places that have significant shark population.
The mark3 firefighting machine at around min 3.50 in might be good at removibg floodwater aswell?! Health and wisdom to all, Erik the Netherlands
That video clip showing the Recco system is misleading. That's not how the reflector system works and in fact, they're not considered decent methods of SAR anymore and as such, big brands such as Norrøna are no longer using the Recco systems.
I want one of the slides just for fun.
Cool!
amazing!
"when installed correctly it boasts a 10 year life span" THATS IT?!?! that seems to be a little lacking when you're building something like that.
Great !
It'd be amazing the stuff that we could come up with if we gave Vanessa a large budget instead of subsidizing SpaceX with government money.
forget that, take the company/billionaire's money off them too, cause they should actually be paying taxes, like everyone else is required to!
@@mehere8038They do pay taxes, much more than everyone else.
Awesome!
Coined a specific term for it - "a line thrower." Who'd have thought?
Unfortunately I have to walk in a mall since no one is willing to shell out the money for a treadmill. Love that my brothers look out for me. Between “If God is for you, who can be against you” and my brothers watching out for me, I’m about as safe as can be.
You are blessed
very good
They didn't coin the term "Line-thrower" for that first invention. The Maritime industry has had line-throwers for a hundred years, for that exact purpose.
0:50 cool but I hope that smoke is not toxic. Also that thing need a training. For exemple, make sure nobody is in front of you... But seems a good invention IMHO.
thanks
Cool inventions
So now it's not such bad advice to tell students to hide under their desks like we were told for bomb drills in the 1960's.
That desk doesn't look safe if you take into consideration
Last time I remember Icarus (or Ikaros) wasn't known for throwing ropes but for fashioning bird wings which he attached to his arms. He failed, of course. I'm just waiting for a startup that (re)invents these same wings and tries marketing them to athletes. And fails.
I'm working on it!
4:00 Slide to safety is interesting. The latest in a historic line of similar ideas such as fireproofed canvas tubes in the 60s, these things somehow haven't got over the parapet still.
Capable of being used from the US 4th floor, UK 3rd, I can't find any footage of schoolchildren using them from this height. Or anyone for that matter.
Bit sus.
Maybe it's very strict regs for kids in ads, who knows?
Can you next time don’t add background music please
Ice retireval... hoover crafts were meant for that.. lol the perfect surface....
I don't think anyone's going to care about the social distancing liferaft where everyone gets their own small little square.
No one is going to stay in those squares: theyr'e going to get their bodies out of the water and sit on top of it, taking up maybe at least 3 squares per person.
All those will be inside the "ice-cubes"???🤔🤦♂️🤦♂️🤷♂️🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂
8:36 Is there a legend so the sharks know which ones have the nuts in them?
thanx
Curious can you use that for fishing
Finder would be helpful more than ever finding lives 🇵🇸 trapped under rubble.
Why not put the equipment to good use and save many lives now?
12:30 this one is the most interesting for a person
So what is this Ikaros line thrower supposed to do besides throwing a line into the water? I don't get it.
Grid shaped life boat looks like a Great….. ICE CUBE TRAY to collect all the frozen (dead) passengers from ships like the Titanic
I was wondering about the water temperature too… is each grid open at the bottom?? Yikes on that. Maybe if it was closed one would have a chance.
Not bad ⚡️
Meets the international standards for safety. Who knows what that means. Lol..
Amazing
Thought this might be interesting, but when I heard that sing-song, non-serious narration, as in so many RUclips videos that are not worth watching, I bailed immediately.
The narrator has a very odd cadence. The emphasis is all over the place.
Teh rescue boat idea is great, but the main problem is the loss of heat, so capturing heat and lifting people up is really important... meh.. some of these are like 1960 inventions, lol
Are we sure the cover image isn't Human Battleship [G4!].
That waffle raft looks like a gigantic version of “Guess Who?”
they could use the liferaft/snow thing on everest
Penemuan yang bagus untuk penyelamatan manusia.
