[PSUBS-MAILIST] Continuing saga of homebrewed Chinese sub



Well it looks like the Chinese amateur submariner finally made a successful dive after making at least one dive from which he had to be rescued.  On the following link, the first video clip shows the dive beginning about 2 minutes into the clip, the 2nd clip down shows a very bad dive (he may of added an additional ballast tank on the back of the sub forward of the top fin after this dive, could not get a clear picture), and after this 2nd clip and in the same frame another abortive dive is captured on video (he has to back to the ditch and be steered in by another man on an inner tube float pulling a line with his teeth).  See:

While he made a successful dive finally, it is pretty dicey.
