The hole in Russia was very hot, as you mentioned. It is also interesting to get the recording of what they heard there. It sounded like people in pain, of course, it is probably caused by the tensions and flows of the rock. But it sounded like . . . Hell. And the darned bits were melting.
Y’all realize that those sounds of hell were fake right? They never attempted to put a microphone down the borehole in Russia because the microphone would have melted 😂
'China's drilling a hole so deep that Mount Everest could fit inside it.' Complete Horse manure!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That would be an enormous cone-shaped hole, not a shaft.
Well these are like science teletups. most of the things you need to do again, so you get real facts :D They are entertaining, but it tells enough when feets are used
As a Diller of Long hole over 800 metres for core sampling I can only image the pressure & torque placed on the Drill String & going so deep as the Chinese they will have to be top notch Drillers to stop the hole bending which would put extra strain on the Drill string through Friction of the string rubbing on the Hole wall
Don’t forget about the billions of gold they’re buying along with Saudi Arabia! It seems like some countries have a plan! Just imagine if America would have a plan instead of dividing & bickering with each other!
It’s nearly impossible to form a long term plan like those countries because we change our leadership every four years which more promotes short term goals. China and Saudi Arabia are playing the long game..
if they have only drilled 9 miles deep, how do they know whats beyond that? honestly? any thing they say about whats deeper than that is just theory and speculation.
You probably hear this alot, but you need to start adding Meters and Celcius to your videos, like just put em inside brackets () , awesome videos, keep it up!
When I read about some deep bore project somewhere, I find myself wondering about what dormant ancient lifeforms it might unearth. And what if there is some virus or bacteria, dormant for millions of years, for which there is no immunity and no possible cure. I guess I should cut down on the coffee.
If bacteria that can survive millions of years are discovered, I'm pretty sure the scientists want to duplicate this secret recipe. They want to know the secrets of long life. 😂😂 How do they determine how old is the bacteria? Use a clock? 😂😂 How do they move bacteria or virus that live deep in thousands of ft to the surface? The change in depth and atmospheric prrssure will surely kill the specimens. 😢 This is like Shangri-la, the secret of eternal long life. Once you leave, you age rapidly instantly like a melting butter. 😂😂
It used to be that in drilling one had to use a bit of sufficient diameter to accept the well casing. This required the bit to be larger in diameter than the casing. In order to change the bit one had to "trip" the well, which means that you had to pull out all the casing pipe, put on a new bit and put it all back. I assume that we have technology now that allows a bit to be narrow enough to go down the well casing and then expand to the proper size. If anyone actually knows how this is done these days I would be interested in finding out.
It is not going to end well ..... and we could ALL be covered in scorching outer core oozing from the center of the earth. I'm going to stop paying my bills.... no point. 🤣😂🤯😡😳
russia already did it and decided not to go any further. Scientists found microscopic fossils of single-celled organisms at 4.3 miles (7 kilometers) down. And at nearly the same depth, they discovered water. They also found that the temperature at the bottom of the hole reached a blistering 356°F (180°C). Being too hot to continue, drilling officially halted in 1994.
heating with geothermal is very much viable right now - with just 100 m holes. Eben if it is not electriciy production it gets out a lot of needed energy in a stable way.
"Chinese scientists get access to the rock that covered the earth in the early cretaceous period" amazing! They may find fossils of dinosaurs down there unlike all the other fossils of dinosaurs we have found on the surface in rocks from "other" periods
how heavy would all these drill bits weigh .it must get to a point where the thread joining each piece wont be able to support the enormous weight and strip out blocking the shaft
Honestly, does any notice lately that the Earth is going through lots of catastrophic changes because all of a sudden Typhoon are destroying lots of countries. Hmm these are warning signs that some things bad is about to happen on Planet Earth.
Actually.. China is looking into mass producing Small Nuclear Reactors (SMRs). One of the main hurdles of this is how Nuclear waste is disposed of. Theoretically dumping Nuclear waste deep into the Earth is if not, the most viable option.
I always wondered.. Why we were always taught the layers of the earth in school. Its theory. We dont even know if it IS an iron core. Minerals n history is different if you drilled a hold to the core anywhere. Very fascinating
"Birds were just starting to evolve"....lol, the belief in evolution never ceases to amaze me. Humans, intelligent beings, capable of creative thinking, took centuries of learning and an industrial revolution just to make something fly...and a century later, we still can't replicate the efficiency and complex ability with which birds fly. But yeah, it totally makes sense that creatures without intelligence or self awareness were able to pass on genes that allowed their offspring to develop with physical attributes that allowed for flight.
Wondering how the drill team keeps the drill going straight down and not going sideways? I have seen diagrams that oil exploration will go lateral at a depth on purpose, this explains length vs. depth. How do they steer a spinning drill bit? If you could make a mention if you update this in the future. Thx
Behind the bit (up the hole) there is a wrist like joint. We can move that joint to steer the bit. Data can come up through the mud or in a wired BHA (Bottom hole assembly) The directional boys are really good at what they do. Was a tool pusher on a rig in Dubai.
I heard some people think that there is more water inside the earth than in all of the oceans. Im wondering if hitting lava or whatever might be a bad idea. Letting something out that is supposed to stay in there
Totally agree... isn't Elon Musk super curious and willing to drop a $1B to get into the mantle? I'd suggest digging the largest cone-style pit every dug, and THEN start the shaft drilling. That way, you can get a "head start" on the depth.
From an engineering standpoint, they are wasting time, effort, expense in ignoring the laws of physics. As they go deeper underground the difficulties increase exponentially, so the more sensible thing to do would be to dig out the area (above their drill hole) as deeply as possible. For example, if they dug out the surrounding area to a depth of 500 feet, that would mean they would have to deal with 500 feet LESS drilling difficulties. I don't know what the maximum feasible depth that they could carve out around their drill hole, but it would be at least 500 feet.
Sounds like a great job for college majoring in geology and engineering. Very interesting. Still kind of sucks that it's funded by oil. I would be more interested in learning how the Earth was made. 🤔
Don't worry China can't do this. In order to do this they would need to borrow or build a certain drill type that America 100% owns and uses. There is 1 super drill that America some times rents but even when we rent it the drill is still secured by specialized American private military just to keep its vital functions a secret. To build that type of drill China would have to have an agency with the same intelligence as DARPA a place that is filled with the smartest people on the planet that are given unlimited recourses and unlimited funding and are well above the law and well China doesn't do that ever. So don't worry this story is a really bad lie.
It took me less than 8 seconds to get that answer using “29000 feet to metric”. 8893m. Would have been the same for you, less time to get the answer than to complain about not having it.
Drill bits at surface will always act differently at depth especially when you go deeper. The pressure will exponentially rise and the temperature will rise as well. To drill this, it will be critical to actually think outside of the box. China is not known for this. They can copy stuff, but they cannot innovate.
My initial thought (1:12 second in) is, "Are they trying to hit the mantle to make a volcano?? Maybe to give nutrients to the land above?" Edit: Nope just wasting money that could help their people, while they're threatening others??
Feet is used to easily imagine how long aproximately. Metric is used for exact measurement for science. Can you imagine how long a meter is in relation to what?
this was already tried before by the USSR and it took them longer than 50 years to get to around 3km from memory, it was a race between the US and the USSR who could get to the earth's inner mantel crust earlier, aka part of its core, the US stopped after just a few years meanwhile the USSR kept going, this wont be done in a year or two.
It's solid/molten rock down there.. There are no caves down there. They physically can't exist due to the pressures down there. If things could live in magma/molten rock, then we would've encountered them already since people live in Hawaii just fine. It's not like they can even get up to the top to begin with. At a certain point, the immense pressure just closes up the tiny gap that humans made. That's why it's difficult to dig that deep, you can't just simply break some rocks and forget about it.
Maybe they should use a strong enough laser to drill, and stop wasting time and resources. Developing a laser that can drill would benefit mankind more than what little is learned down a hole.
The info was very interesting, but the narration could be improved. The voice is hurried and nearly shouting. Try learning from British or Japanese narrators.

You build the bit/ mechanism to be the toughest. What happens when the bit breaks off? You can't drill through it and the hole collapses on its own.
