6:50 "Mechanical issues be damned, it was time to get going." That isn't a phrase you want to hear on any vehicle, much less a submarine planning to journey under an ice sheet. I wonder if they told the crew about that particular detail before they set off?

I have surfaced through the polar ice on three occasions with Royal Navy subs and those were fraught with danger so to see someone attempt the same nearly 100 years ago is breathtaking. The fact that this boat used diesels, which needed air to operate, was incredibly risky as coming across a polynia could be very hit and miss without upward looking sonar to aid discovery of an area of open water.

The fact he was largely forgotten is a shame. Regardless of the fact they didn't make it to the poles, those men ventured further than anyone else and put up a record that took nearly 30 years to beat, and making that kind of trip with unproven, experimental, 1930's tech in a WWI era sub is just fucking terrifying. The phrase "We stand on the shoulders of giants" comes to mind.

These illustrations are wonderful! It's like looking at an actual book.

06:24 it's amazing how in just 6-7 decades, pole-exploring submarine went from "cannot go out far from port without breaking down a lot" into "body-crashing thru sea ice by simply surfacing".

I could imagine a documentary of someone going out and raising the Nautilus, looking at the shock absorber on the front, the wacky ice drill, the guide arm thing on top, the diving area... couldn't you just see that thing sitting in a museum somewhere pointing out all this insane stuff... basically showing you that they were absolutely bonkers to try this with those dreamed up extras.

Wow. An incredible channel consisting almost entirely of nothing but high quality videos diving into my special interest; the design and engineering behind unique forms of travel. You've even got a video on airships! I'm seriously so excited. I can't wait to burn through your youtube catalogue and then give Nebula a shot. Thanks for the quality content, you really made my day!

I had a chance to visit the USS Nautilus (the nuclear powered one) last year. It's amazing to me how little space they had to work with, to the point that you'd have to turn sideways in the pasageway to pass each other and still brush belt buckles. Truly amazing feats of human engineering and tenacity.
