Come on guys.
If Putin can you can do it as well.
It’s actually true! Vladimir Putin looks like a real-life Bond villain in this submarine photage.
On Aug. 18, the Russian president rode a sub called a “bathyscope” into the Black Sea.

Here we the have the opposite.
Kristianstad 8.4 meters below the sea level and lots of water sometimes.

All the water you can see on the pic is from floding.
It's very much like New Orleans.

Here as pic of Stockholm subway if the sea level rises.
Its only 1 meter before the Baltic Sea floods the subway system.

The sign says 85.5 meters, the decimal point is just really too small in the picture.

The sign says 85.8 meters, the decimal point is just really too small in the picture.

It says 85.5 meters below sea level:)

The Seaview and the Flying Sub...



I always wondered about the glass windows on the front. Some how that seems like such a bad idea.

The big, flat, windows might be OK for shallow dives, but for deep dives would become a structural liability.
Interesting concept, a submarine that can fly....
