@@colinsouthern oh I can definitely relate, sometimes it does feel like trying to shoot an ICBM through a torpedo tube. But that Taco Bell experience was kind of different from that, more of a combination of high velocity and maximum fragmentation, without losing any of its lethality though.
Suggestion for a video. That pool is supposed to be able to drain in like 30 seconds or something. If they ever test the emergency drain system it would be really cool to see!
You can!!!! Of course you have to pay to take an offshore survival course but you can swim in this pool as a civilian!!! Speak g from experience it's amazing!!!!!!!
As a recreational scuba diver, I would LOVE to dive in this pool and explore the mock-up is the ISS. I know I will never get to go to space, but that would be a reasonably close experience. Unfortunately, I have the same chance of doing that as I do going to space. Zero.
WOW what are the chances. like a few weeks ago i was wanting more information on this place and it was hard to find good content than you come post this. TYSM for your dedication to content like this, you make so many people happy
I think that's a new record, Destin. This footage waited 6 years before being released. I think waiting until the astronaut was in space before releasing it was part of the reason, but I'm actually impressed to how just how much material you have!
I weirdly find it hard to get my head around the fact that the spacesuit is waterproof. I know it can survive a vacuum, but when he’s getting lowered into the pool I feel like he must feel the water haha
Destin, do you realize that you released your video in direct competition with an actual live UA-cam broadcast from NASA of a spacewalk that is happening right now? What a choice - watch training in the neutral buoyancy pool, or watch the real thing live from space? :) :)
The streams come with the in-walk entertainment that is watching the live chat. Pro-Tip: Set it to 'All Chat' instead of 'Top Chat' to really see the unfiltered madness. I struggle to believe it came from the same planet as the astronauts up there doing work.
Hey Destin, thank you for visiting us at the NBL! Ike is a beast and I'm glad you got a chance to see him in training. Now we get to see him fly around the moon next year! come back and see what all we have developed in the pool!
Dang I hate to be that guy, but it's about time!! I was excited for this video when it was announced with the Space Month thing you did a while back with Scott Kelly! Glad to finally see something about the pool!
This is so cool. My first job after graduating from Iowa State, with a degree in civil engineering, was work for a big bridge contractor, here in Dallas, TX. 90% of what I did was structural engineering, designing formwork and shoring systems, critical beam lifts, etc. We put a bid in on excavating and building the giant swimming pool that became this lab. I remember working with our estimating department to develop work plans and formwork systems for the concrete placement. On a side note, at that time we did mot have any computers in our engineering department; everything was calced by hand and drawn on drafting tables. Things we can do now, in a matter of minutes, may have taken me a day of drawing shear and bending moment diagrams, running moment distributions, etc. on. 50 or 60 sheets of engineering paper! My HP 11C got so much use, some of the ink is worn off the buttons. So glad, though, that I earned my P.E. license in those days; I definitely learned a lot about problem solving.
I just got on a student engineering project prototyping sample bag holders for the Artemis moon missions that will be tested at the NBL. I'm so excited!
As someone else mentioned, you can see he was tempted to at first. But a thumbs up is the SCUBA signal for "ascend" and probably not a good sign to throw up in the middle of being lowered.
Apparently my dad did plumbing work on this pool subcontracted by Boeing Air. He said that many parts where made at location too because of the high standards and in general everything was highly regulated. In his opinion, beyond necessity, such as painting the pvc to remove the lettering. This was about 1985
Dude isn't that an awesome facility? Did they let you walk around at the base/sides of the pool? It's friggin' impressive. They also sew the capsule parachutes in the same facility. On the other blocked off end of the pool is recovery and helicopter dunk training. My wife and I got a personal tour during the brief time she was working onsite at JSC.
If one day Destin were to write or make a video of his life it would be the greathest biography like imagine writing about all the cool stuff he has seen and all the cool stuff he has created just amazing
i waant to know where and how to get AND how much does the cam cost SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR good at speed down or slow down or slow mo or slow motin pls tell me the things about it
That 720p tv he's watching the camera feeds on seems out of place in a state of the art NASA facility. A 1080p monitor would have been free considering all the extras they probably have.
Thank you for sharing this, Destin! I imagine you just got a call and ran down with a camera. I love how humble you are and how flexible everyone there are. ALSO question, the little monitor you guys were watching at the end looked like a 10 yr old tv. How come they don't upgrade some of that stuff, to see better? ALSO ALSO, you ever imagine Samsung or someone would sponsor these guys with some better gear, like they sponsor UA-camrs? :D Anyways, good night from Norway. Thanks again for these shorts and unedited videos! Wholesome :3
Around 2:28 you can hear the diver respond with “you definitely have a better one though.” In response to Destin saying the diver had one of the best jobs. It’s interesting how Destin didn’t reply, but if he did I’m curious what his response would have been.
Just curious, how come no facemasks? Awesome video as always! I and my 2 year old daughter love your videos! A few years til she understands what it is and that you cant wave back!
He started straining 5 YEARS before the actual space walk, crazy to see that right now hes out there in space, working on the ISS.
The other week after eating at Taco Bell I started straining a good 2 days before the "launch", I can't imagine it taking 5 years.
@@colinsouthern oh I can definitely relate, sometimes it does feel like trying to shoot an ICBM through a torpedo tube. But that Taco Bell experience was kind of different from that, more of a combination of high velocity and maximum fragmentation, without losing any of its lethality though.
the bar is high, yes
Victor Glover is currently doing a spacewalk on the iss when this video was posted

never really want to dive into a pool but man, i want to with this one
Same here ,,,
You can!!!! Of course you have to pay to take an offshore survival course but you can swim in this pool as a civilian!!! Speak g from experience it's amazing!!!!!!!
I no right haha
I wouldn't consider this a pool as a small lake with a roof haha

Hi Destin, we love what you do. Keep it up!
Agreed!
He missed his opportunity to raise his thumb terminator style when going below the surface :/
You could see he was tempted (2:26) but making the SCUBA 'ascend now' sign while going underwater probably isn't the best idea.
Had the same thought :-)
@@jocax188723 Fair point
Was just about to comment the same thing.
My nose itches just watching this.
WOW what are the chances. like a few weeks ago i was wanting more information on this place and it was hard to find good content than you come post this. TYSM for your dedication to content like this, you make so many people happy
2:32 is my favorite part, it makes a great reaction gif xD
That's fantastic!
In an unappealing conversation?
Bam, vicglover.gif :-P
yea its my favorite too, next time I would love to see him doing terminator 2 ending scene xD
Imagine if he did the Terminator thumbs up
I was waiting for him to do the thumbs-up, terminator style.
Wow, good timing Destin!
Loving these NASA/Aerospace vids!!
Destin...the access you get is insane. Keep this up!
I'm so excited for this new series! Looking forward to watching and rewatching your amazing work :)
I love how destin is interacting with all the workers and being super respectful and kind. You are a role model Destin.
I think that's a new record, Destin. This footage waited 6 years before being released.
I think waiting until the astronaut was in space before releasing it was part of the reason, but I'm actually impressed to how just how much material you have!
i just want to see his archive at this point 😂id watch the whole thing 😂
2:30 are they practicing a terminator retake or what?
How cool! Growing up I wanted to be an astronaut... so this brings old dreams back.
I weirdly find it hard to get my head around the fact that the spacesuit is waterproof.
I know it can survive a vacuum, but when he’s getting lowered into the pool I feel like he must feel the water haha
Space is like water, you can't breathe either.
Good point!
It's more difficult than actual space. He feels the mass of the water around him. And the drag on his movements is insane.

@@patstaysuckafreeboss8006 what a genius
I´m sure you know it but these are some very special channels you have here, Destin. Thank you!
Destin, do you realize that you released your video in direct competition with an actual live UA-cam broadcast from NASA of a spacewalk that is happening right now? What a choice - watch training in the neutral buoyancy pool, or watch the real thing live from space? :) :)
And it's the same astronaut! Vic Glover is one of two people on the livestreamed spacewalk.
@@sageDieuvids That's awesome!! :)
The probability that they were practicing for the EVA that was being live-streamed is pretty high!
That’s the point. He posted this as the educational and historical follow up video for people to watch.
The streams come with the in-walk entertainment that is watching the live chat.
Pro-Tip: Set it to 'All Chat' instead of 'Top Chat' to really see the unfiltered madness. I struggle to believe it came from the same planet as the astronauts up there doing work.
Destin, you are an inspiration to many people including myself. The experiences that you are sharing and describing are incredible. 👍
Hey Destin, thank you for visiting us at the NBL! Ike is a beast and I'm glad you got a chance to see him in training. Now we get to see him fly around the moon next year! come back and see what all we have developed in the pool!
Such perfect timing. Vic is my favorite astronaut and he helped finish the ISS battery swap today
I love these short "destin wants to go do a thing" type videos
Destin you’re turning into SmarterOnceAMonth.....I don’t mind your videos are my favorite and worth the wait!!
Best 5 min in for ever keep them coming
I love it when you post stuff you are enthusiastic about, awesome!
The tank at Boeing in Seal Beach Ca...is a cylinder andnits 50 across and 100 plus deep... scary deep..that facility makes scary star wars stuff.
Was lucky enough to intern there in 2009, Still love watching these videos. SAFER = Simplified Aid for EVA Rescue
My mom used to work as a saftey diver for johnson engineering before she got pregnant, i love seeing your videos about nasa and stuff!
Love how Destin makes other's the focus of his vids and not himself like most youtubers.
five years ago wow that's a long time to train for plus college education navy career etc
This is epic! It must've been awesome to see in person.
Dang I hate to be that guy, but it's about time!! I was excited for this video when it was announced with the Space Month thing you did a while back with Scott Kelly! Glad to finally see something about the pool!
Mike Hopkins gave me a tour in 2015 or 2016 of this facility and the ISS mockup and now he's up in the ISS with this guy!
Why'd you get your SCUBA certification?
So I could send people to space.
NGL, this was one of the reasons I got my scuba cert. So I could work with astronauts in the NBL
@@9sunstar9 did you?
@@spicex4k901 He did. Jelly of his work.
@@9sunstar9 what process after your normal Open water scuba cert did you go through?
Awesome video, and superb that you get access to this for us!

Wow, Awesome Destin!!! Have been seeing your videos since The chicken head video and as a fellow mechanical engineer, your videos give me pure joy!
Thank you for showing us the coolest things in the world.
Love that chapter of Job
I’ve always dreamed about becoming an astronaut, this would be such an interesting experience. I’m glad you posted this!
This here is some main channel content man!
Growing up my dream job was to be a safety diver at the NBL. Thanks for the vids!
The probability that they were practicing for the EVA that was being live-streamed is pretty high!
Watching this after watching him do his first space walk. Amazing.
Thankyou for your channel Destin
I would LOVE to dive in the NBL. The water is so clear; nothing like my home waters.
How does this channel not have more views
I just got on a student engineering project prototyping sample bag holders for the Artemis moon missions that will be tested at the NBL. I'm so excited!
Wow really nice video as always 👍 Awesome footage 👌 only sad thing, it's too short 🙄 Want more!😁
he should make the thumbs up when diving like a Terminator :D
As someone else mentioned, you can see he was tempted to at first. But a thumbs up is the SCUBA signal for "ascend" and probably not a good sign to throw up in the middle of being lowered.
Nice peek into the daily grind of spacemen! Thanks, Destin
I like it also when they do space walks. This is great to practice on that. More technologies the better and for mankind.
That pool looks incredible how I would give anything just to look into it or explore it
I love that space stuff so much!
The astronaut definitely missed the opportunity to give a thumbs up like Arnold Schwarzenegger in Terminator
Man I would LOVE to be a support diver at the lab! Great video as always.
I was watching Victor Glover doing a spacewalk today, Monday February 1st 2021
Apparently my dad did plumbing work on this pool subcontracted by Boeing Air.
He said that many parts where made at location too because of the high standards and in general everything was highly regulated. In his opinion, beyond necessity, such as painting the pvc to remove the lettering. This was about 1985
That wave to the camera was perfect.
One of the coolest youtubers im subscribed too
What a cool episode 😊
Dude isn't that an awesome facility? Did they let you walk around at the base/sides of the pool? It's friggin' impressive. They also sew the capsule parachutes in the same facility. On the other blocked off end of the pool is recovery and helicopter dunk training.
My wife and I got a personal tour during the brief time she was working onsite at JSC.
Who can give this video a thumbs Down!? This is Awesome!💪🇺🇸
Hey Destin. You inspire me!
I've wanted to try one of the simulations in this tank since I was a kid! Easily one of the coolest jungle gyms on earth!
video is fresh as, 4k not available yet
Love your videos Dustin!
We literally talked about Job (Hiob) in church last sunday. Nice!
Hiiee Destin.. where are the remaining submarine videos. Love from india❤️❤️🙏🙏
If one day Destin were to write or make a video of his life it would be the greathest biography like imagine writing about all the cool stuff he has seen and all the cool stuff he has created just amazing
Can you please make a video on how space suit work
I know 3 people that work at the NBL. It’s definitely my dream job.
Great video and series. What’s with the low views on your videos recently? UA-cam up to their shenanigans?
Yeah
Big UA-camrs need to have subtitles as soon as the video is published
Always cool stuff! Looking for another topic? How's about Foo Fighter, Ball Lightning and St. Elmo's Fire? Thanks...
Happy Monday!
This is so freaking cool!!!
i waant to know where and how to get AND how much does the cam cost SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR good at speed down or slow down or slow mo or slow motin pls tell me the things about it
Awesome 😀
at 0:10 can anyone tell me what is the flag between Spain and Switzerland??
Man I wish this video was 5x longer
I like how he waves before he gets covered by water
That 720p tv he's watching the camera feeds on seems out of place in a state of the art NASA facility. A 1080p monitor would have been free considering all the extras they probably have.
how can you NOT do a thumbs up as you slowly descend into the water?
that water looks ✨s o c l e a n✨ omg
0:23 the astronaut suit looks awesome.
astronauts have the coolest job OUT of the world
nice and short vid but still awesome
SO COOL
Is the pool filled with normal tap water or is there something added to make it more/less buoyant, corosive, etc? Also it's very blue...
It's just water. Super clean, super clear water. Lots of it.
3:20 look at that tv this video is 4yrs old
