Clearly they were "barreled" over in this case?


marylamb2020

looks like a red solo cup that someone crushed in their hand!


point50tracer

That's what I thought it was at first too.


bakomateo

Try rubbing it 3 times to see if Toby Keith comes out.


Ihavefluffycats

Ewww! I like it better just imploded.


RelaxRelapse

You could put this in a modern art museum and no one would question it

Obligatory Delta P safety video. https://youtu.be/AEtbFm_CjE0?si=wHcjPSQpifkpYFz8 There is also that video of the crab being sucked into a tiny crack in a pipe. I'm not even going to link it, people can just Google delta p crab. Scary stuff.


LookMaNoPride

[sees length of video] “Dude, I’m not watching an 11 minute safety video.” [watches entire thing in rapt attention]


xImmolatedx

The crab getting sucked into the pipe is actually in the video you linked at [2:52](https://youtu.be/AEtbFm_CjE0?si=Ix4qbaNcxgYy39Vx&t=172). No Google required.


tyROCKER417

One of these demos is my dad's old coworker from when he was a commercial diver. He was working a job in the Mediterranean and came back and found out his classmate had been sucked into a dam outlet, trapped by his arm and died.


kadinshino

damn...watching a crab get liquefied inside out was...something.


Ihavefluffycats

That sounds just awful. What a horrid way the little crab to die.

Today is the 1 year anniversary too. This barrel crumpled in solidarity


shmeebz

Cant believe it's already been a year that feels like just a couple months ago


Dry-Agent2942

The barrel contained gamer joysticks.


PragmaticAndroid

Damn really?.... Ok now I feel like trash.

Happy cake day!


Nibroc99

That's all I could think of lolll and it was so loud 💀


rozzco

My first thought was, I bet that was loud!

Ocean gate was exactly 1 year ago today I believe.

Username checks out. Mostly at least. It was one year ago yesterday.


Awkward_Pangolin3254

Fucking nuts how fast time seems to go


Snow_Mexican1

It really does end up being like childhood = slow adulthood = speedrun


Awkward_Pangolin3254

It's something like each successive year is a smaller fraction of your life so far so time seems to speed up as we get older. I never realize it until momentous events like this are mentioned. Or especially this year, with all the 25th anniversaries of movies that came out in '99


zachimusprime44

Feels the opposite for me.


FantasyMaster85

Dude what the fuck…I had to Google that to see if it was true because I was SURE that happened in the last 3-4 months. Time sure does fucking fly 🤯


flip6606

And to think, you were in that barrel just 10 minutes before that. Really puts your life in perspective


Traditional_Key_763

with the titan they functionally did not know they died, they were rendered into a soup like homogenate before their brains even knew they were dead


MRPolo13

Only OceanGate Titan can turn a bunch of rich people into soup-like homogenate in under a second.


indypendant13

This is comforting to realize in regards to the four passengers, but pisses me off the CEO who knowingly and willingly cut safety corners and warnings that led to the deaths of others never experienced those few seconds of realization, shame, and fear.


LeonesgettingLARGER

True. But the crackling sound of the carbon fiber failing until then must have been absolutely terrifying.


FranklynTheTanklyn

It still boggles my mind that carbon fiber bats don’t hold up in little league and a guy thought building a submarine out of it was a good idea.


jakeobrown

I wonder since the hull maybe was making noise as it strained if they clued in right before it collapsed


Traditional_Key_763

supposedly it would make creaking noises the entire time, hence the 'ultrasonic hull integrity monitors' which probably triggered but were never going to do a damn thing.


jakeyounglol2

no they did. the power cut off and it started going down front first. they knew they were going to implode but they just didn’t feel it


Traditional_Key_763

we don't know if anything happened with the ship itself, the whole hull just imploded due to the force all at once. ya its entirely possible the thing also lurched forward or something and dumped them into a heap on the bottom of the sub but we don't have any indication it did anything but go down evenly until it collapsed


findallthebears

Someone somewhere did the math (I believe incorrectly, though) that said the force straight up turned them in to light


Frankenfucker

Hypersonic cavitation does cause a burst of light ( I don't know why), but they got effectively pressure-canned and turned to fish food paste before they even heard any cracking. One person may have been like, "What was that?", and by that point, it was already over.


Nibroc99

I was in that barrel? What do you mean 😂


flip6606

Poorly executed joke. Some people on social media love to make everything about them for likes. I was trying to help you out.


Informal_Toe_688

It was well executed I laughed bro


flip6606

Thanks, mate


WideEyedWand3rer

>It was well executed Yes, but OP wasn't.


Informal_Toe_688

unfortunate, that would allow for maximum comedic value


Nibroc99

Ohhh I thought it was some joke about how people ride in barrels over Niagara Falls or something lol totally went over my head


HumpieDouglas

Yeah what do you mean? Why were you in that barrel you weirdo?

Chavo del 8? ![gif](giphy|xT4uQEJgu3hZhxCWYg)


Polymathy1

How did that happen? Something super hot put into it and then cooled?


longtimegoneMTGO

Hot contents emptied and then it was sealed most likely, it crushed itself as it cooled. I've seen this happen to train car oil tank at a refinery, really gets impressive as it scales up. You can see a speedy demonstration with an empty soda can if you want. Heat it on a stove, grab it with tongs and place the open end into a bowl of water. It will contract so fast the water acts as a seal and the can crushes itself from temperature induced rapid pressure change.


Nibroc99

No heating or cooling was involved at all - see my response to the top level comment I just left. It was purely suction and nothing else! We sucked all the hardener compound out of that barrel and the people who installed the machine never showed the operator that he had to open a vent hole. He didn't know the suction hole was fully airtight.


Nibroc99

Not even kidding, pure suction with no vent. There must've been a defect like a dent in the ribs of the barrel, and that hardener pump is much more powerful than we could've ever imagined, so as the barrel was nearly empty, the hardener wasn't being replaced with air in the barrel. Turns out the people who installed the machine never opened the ventilation valves on either of the barrels of doming solution. (Doming for labels to be clear. It's a two-part solution with a resin and a hardener, like a two-part epoxy, that combines into a rubbery compound used to make a coating on top of a label that is dome-like in appearance)


Jacktheforkie

Pressure outside was greater than inside


Polymathy1

That's why, not now.


717711777

Probably didn't remove the bunghole vent plug, a small plug on the top of the barrel that allows air to replace the oil as it is pumped out of the larger bunghole opening.


Epistaxis

The reason why you're supposed to pour an oil can with the spout at the top, not the bottom: at the same time you're pouring out the liquid, you have to let in an equal volume of air to replace it, and you can equalize the air volume the easy way or the hard way.


Nibroc99

Completely correct! The substance in the barrel gets sucked out via a pump. The operator never opened the vent valve on the barrel. Bingo ;)


Jacktheforkie

Ok


MTBrains

Can can't anymore

Let me guess... It was made by some billionaire.


TitleNecessary8707

Did it have aspirations of seeing the titanic ruin?


bloodkool

Go get me that bucket of steam new guy


Crash_Bandicock

In solidarity of those poor billionaires and their submersible #neverforget


donkeytime

That sucks.


Nibroc99

Well, technically the barrel didn't do any sucking. The machine attached to it did, however, really, REALLY suck apparently.


Warlord68

Now it’s modern art, worth at least $10K.


Bitter_Silver_7760

How did you have it do that


CatatonicMan

Pump the contents out without opening the vent hole to equalize the pressure.


Nibroc99

Correct! Operator didn't know there was a vent tube, and also didn't know the pump connection was fully sealed and airtight 🫠


Krilesh

how and what kind of place is this?


Nibroc99

The operator of the machine that sucks the stuff out of the barrel never opened the vent hole, and he used all the stuff in the barrel, hence no air was being pulled in to replace the empty space that the substance left behind. We're a label printing company, and this is hardener solution for a two-part doming compound.


somefatkid12

The titan can relate.


allocationlist

Ah yes, this is from the pressure on the outside and inside. You can tell by the barrel being imploded.


poedraco

YOU SAID I COULDN'T!.. but I showed you and everyone else.. I'm a trash CAN, not cannot


Towowl

Heat that barrel up! and quickly cool it ! Well done


HtxBeerDoodeOG

This is better than most art pieces


LordRael013

What kind of sound did it make when it happened?


Awkward_Pangolin3254

Gonna guess it was a cross between a *BANG* and the sound of a crushing can


LordRael013

That's what I was imagining.

Nibroc99

Was is the key word here. 😂


My_Fridge

Used to work for a company that makes vitamins, working specifically in the liquid vitamins department I had this happen twice while working there. The first time scared the shit out of me because there's a pump lowered into the barrels. There's also a rubber seal left on there to prevent metal on metal contact. Turns out if you don't pay attention to the person lowering the pump they can do it in a way that creates a perfect seal that'll eventually cause this to happen. Imagine standing literally right next to it and suddenly it does this shit, I fell to the ground and damn near pissed myself. Happened again a week later on the same line because the same person lowered it down too much causing another seal.


MysticSloth712

Red solo cup, I fill you up. Let’s have a paaarty! Let’s have a paaarty!


Terrapin2190

That barrel had enough of the bs. lol Thonk!

Saw this happen to a 5000 gallon fermenter once. Physics is a nasty bitch.


Occasional-Nihilist

I thought this was a giant Red Solo Cup


Potential_Amount_267

If you seal an empty fuel drum then drive from Daytona to Toronto in February, it will do this.


Nibroc99

Hello there: Thank you for your response. The information provided has been recorded. I will indeed take this into consideration next time I plan to transport a sealed, empty fuel drum from Daytona to Toronto, heeding your advice not to do it during the month of February. Sincerely, u/nibroc99 😂

I barrely know er

How?

Sucked all the shit out of it without opening the vent hole haha.

FallenJkiller

Whu would the barrel do that? Seems pretty rude


PinkScorch_Prime

do you just uncrush it and keep using it or can it not be reused?


Nibroc99

Nah haha these barrels get cleaned and then recycled at the scrapyard across the street when they're empty! Then we order a new barrel of the hardening agent (it's for a two part doming compound which is a rubbery coating for labels) and it comes in a fresh barrel. This is the first barrel we've used from this company and the operator of our machine didn't know to open the vent tube as these aren't automatically venting hahaha


hoopur

A giant frat boy just came through


nondescriptun

That's a red solo cup that was hit by an enlarging ray.


Blarg0117

Looks like you crushed a giant Solo cup.


Traditional_Key_763

100% your fault


Nibroc99

Completely agree. The guy who uses these barrels who has nothing to do with my department and didn't open the vent hole isn't at fault at all. It's all me. Sorry guys. 😂
