Honestly if I was floating away into space with no way to get back to the station, I’d probably talk to Mission Control to try to get in touch with my family to see if I could talk to them one last time, then I’d ask mission control to help me figure out the easiest and most painless way to die without having to wait until my air ran out. Although, by running out of air you’d eventually pass out from the carbon dioxide and lack of oxygen for an ultimately painless death, but again that’d take many hours. Likely excruciatingly long, and anxiety inducing hours. And I don’t know that I could handle sitting there with my own thoughts for that long knowing what’s going to eventually happen. That’s terrifying and tough to wrap my mind around. I hope none of our incredibly brave astronauts ever have to experience that.
It would actually not be painless because you’d be slowly suffocating It’s not like one minute the air is there, then the next it’s gone. It is gradually reducing and over those 7 hours you start to suffocate and gasp for air that isn’t there
@@MM-we4no Well ya, I suppose that’s true. You’d have trouble breathing which would be quite uncomfortable I imagine. But once you got to a certain point the oxygen would be too low and you’d just pass out. Maybe it’d be better just to pop the seal on your helmet then. Idk. I’m just guessing. It’d be unpleasant any way you look at it though because even doing that wouldn’t be instant or painless. Scary thought.
They'd most likely tell you to chill out and enjoy the view for whatever time you have left. Slowly induced CO2 poisoning is like getting drunk. Then you die but you're too fucked to even know.
@@thelittlestmig3394 Right. That’s what I thought. I’ve seen videos where they take people into hyperbaric chambers and have them take off their oxygen mask and after just a matter of a minute or so of being off oxygen they increasingly get giddy and behave as if they were drunk, and if you don’t put the oxygen mask back on eventually you’d pass out and never wake up. As the previous commenter mentioned though, depending on how quick it onset, you might feel like you were suffocating depending on how quick the hypoxia set in. Which I’m not sure about, I’m no expert or anything. From what I’ve seen with pilots in hyperbaric chambers, they don’t seem even slightly distressed when they take off their mask. But then again, the chamber pressure is usually set at like 30,000ft or something, so there’s still some air, just not enough to keep your brain functioning for very long. I imagine in a space suit it would be similar because there’d still be oxygen to breathe, just not enough. And hypoxia sets in pretty damn quick at 30,000ft. This is all guess work by me as to how it would go in a space suit though. Lol
ye from what I understand your brain will slowly have less oxygen available and work less and less actively. So it will feel like you're getting sleepier and sleepier and eventually just fall asleep, then go to coma and eventually reach brain deadness. But ye the anxiety can still be very real.
This and being stuck in a broken submarine at the bottom of the ocean are two of the scariest situations imaginable. If I were to get lost in space just floating aimlessly and no one could help me, I think I would just take off my helmet to end it alot quicker.
I would suggest against that as it would cause all the fluid in your body to begin boiling, air in your bloodstream to expand, and you'd begin suffering from some of the worsts pains possible for about 2~3 minutes... and that's if you didn't hold your breath. Slow asphyxiation would be better.
My cousin is a retired astronaut. Hey flew 5 times. His 5th flight he went to MIR. He suffered from severe depression for quite some time. He eventually pushed past it but he retired when he got back.
@@scruffmaster0185 For him it wasn't about being lonely. He was a combat veteran, same as me, but it was just different. I'm not in his head so I don't what was going on with him. I think he got to the age and experience that he didn't care about anyhting than being with his family.
@@djbeezy wow i’ve never encountered someone who was close to an astronaut. that’s very exciting and cool. thank you for your service to you and your cousin
My head starts spinning and I feel dizzy just thinking about being lost in space and drifting away into nothing. And if you were near the Earth, being able to see it would be both beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. So close but yet so far. Kind of reminds me a bit of the stories of people who fall off cruise ships out in the open ocean and end up drowning after treading water for hours. Watching the ship slowly getting further away would be like watching the Earth, only far less spectacular. Trying to remain calm in either situation would be next to impossible.
Well to be fair, running out of oxygen is the most painless way to go. Hypoxia feels like going drunk, having a good time and then falling asleep feeling a little tingly (assuming you can get rid of the carbon dioxide acidifying our blood and making it extremely uncomfortable). When we consider the other options being death by starvation, dehydration, radiation, or being exposed to the vacuum of space, running out of air definitely the way I'd choose to go.
Have you ever hit your back that hard, that you can't breath. I bet you didn't. Or else you would NOT type this . Not a nice feeling. NOT a nice way to go.
@@inthelight565 Hitting your back and going out of air is entirely different from slowly suffocating. Losing breath due to impact means you also experience pain from impact and actually got a sudden shift in oxygen. You gradually losing oxygen over a long period of time is a lot less noticeable than that. For one it'd take ages and secondly if there's not enough oxygen provided to the brain you'll lose brain functioning over time to the point you might as well be drunk or have a good time. There's even a hormone we make on when we know we're dying that actually makes sure you feel kinda okay. Forgot the name but the youtube channel Roanoke gaming has some great explanations on human biology and the various ways you can die. One of the things he explains well is how the human brain reacts to different situations. He did the Lazarus effect, and that has the explanation on the hormone.
As someone with severe anxiety just the Idea of space makes my chest feel tight, massive respect for what these people do. I would panic just being isolated like that, let alone having to go out and do space walks with the idea of possible imminent death lingering on my mind lmao
I liked this video, although I admit the click bait title move got me to watch it.. no one’s actually floating in space dead and not been retrieved- glad to hear that! Please Don’t bait us too much I’m a loyal subscriber .. keep up the good work and thank you for your content!
I think the worst part about being in space is just all of the nothingness. Being in space you'd deal with several fears: megalophobia, kenophobia, and acrophobia. The fear of massive objects, the fear of the void, and the fear of heights. Falling into the void is probably the scariest thing for me.
@@mechanomics2649the “quietness” effect they use is unsettling even though it wouldn’t even sound like that in real space. or maybe it would because it’d be absolutely silent and you could hear that ocean sound effect when you cup your ears
@@mechanomics2649some of the scariest shit is going from planet to space station, the few seconds of trying to hurry up and get to the door before anything happens 😂😂 . Space is extremely unnerving in that game 😂
An Excellent Video, Choosing the right industry to invest is very critical, Most times, it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $83k per month, Utter shock is the word.

The decision to invest is an acknowledgment that comes with certain risks. Not all investments will do well and some may lose money. However, without risk there would be no opportunity to potentially earn the higher returns that can help you grow your wealth.

When Bruce McCandless was testing the MMU, he was untethered and got pretty far from the Shuttle. You could hear the concern in the NASA ground controller's voice when they talked him into coming back. I think they were concerned that he was going "Major Tom" on them. 😃
And then the Rock said: Know your role, and get your monkey ass back to the shuttle, jabroni. Vast nothingness is about to go one on one with the Great One. If you smell what The Rock is cooking.🎶
Untethered eh? So can you explain to me how he eventually caught up with the fake station that's going 17.500mph round the water testicle lol that's some jetpack that mind looooooool???
I once had a dream that I was an astronaut, repairing a satellite. When I looked over my shoulder I would see the earth. This might sound weird but I could feel myself floating … it was such a beautiful dream… so so beautiful.
From an engineering standpoint: Would it be possible to install an emergency valve allowing the astronaut to vent their own air supply into the maneuverability module in a worst case scenario? IIRC the current gen of those space jetpacks have about 70-90sec of thrust before they're spent which is really not a lot of control, even accounting for not needing constant thrust in microgravity.
Thats a pretty piss poor amount of fuel for being in space. Im sure they could easily fit a different or more gas without too much weight. All you need to do is provide propulsion. Of course I dont know how much thrust it gives but still
That would increase the risk of some valve or other part giving out, possibly disabling both your oxygen and thrust at the same time. I don't know if the added complexity and risk would be worth it even if it would be possible.
I'm not sure this would work but I was thinking of some kind of magnet, maybe attached to the extreme points of all of the crafts, stations, etc and each suit has one as well as a switch that controls the field- oversimplified, turning them off and on. And if they started floating away, flip the switch that turns them on, causing them to be drawn towards whichever one is closest. The problem i see though is interference with all kinds of other equipment. But I'm no engineer and have zero idea of space construction so I'm not sure what everything is made of, nor how everything works. It seems likely that not all space equipment is equal, seeing as it has been developed and installed over decades in which technology has made huge advances but that all least some would be interrupted by a sudden magnetic field.
Easier solution. Leave the suits as they are. . Have a belt with 2 cannisters or a seperate item that all astronauts carry when outside of the shuttle. . It'd be the equivalent to wearing a life vest on a boat u wear over your clothes. . Attach a suicide canister for the worst scenario and maybe a a personal belonging capsule. . It'd be a fair amount of effort and thought towards their last moment. 2 canisters for returning to base and 2 canisters for if u can't. 1 for ur last moment. And the last to end it.
90 seconds of continuous thrust is a TON! It’s space, one little psss and you’re heading in the direction you want, forever, until you give a neutralizing burst in the opposite direction of travel
Space travel is an excellent thought experiment on the Dunning-Kruger effect (the less you know, the more you THINK you know). Most people probably have very little fear of space travel, or colonizing Mars, because while we generally know it's dangerous we don't have any relevant personal experience to make it real. We THINK we know the risks. Now, think about diving deep under the ocean or flying in a small plane in bad weather with a lot of turbulence. Most people DO have experience being underwater, and flying in a plane that encounters turbulence, and that fear is visceral.
No. No. No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no. Fuck the ocean. Space is way better. Fear factor? I'm not afraid of space at all. I don't care that it's dangerous. To touch the face of God? That's amazing. But the OCEAN? You seen what kind of fuckery happens down there? Nope. Nu uh. Nah.
That is such a basic and half stepped breakdown of the dunning-kruger effect. Stop and consider the fact that maybe some people just don't let their fear rule them. Given the opportunity I would absolutely fly away from everything on this f****** planet and never look back. Even if I died within the first 5 minutes oh, it would be worth it
Has to be so cool and so scary to be out there, getting out there, and coming back. The anxiety at times would be sky high. Im already dont like to be higher than anything I can jump. Cant jump that high either. Mad respect and admiration to all astronauts. Was fun to watch. Great video
3:40 Note to those who may wonder. Technically weight is a measure of how much gravity is exerted on you, and thus you on it. What we're talking about here is mass and momentum. This system was probably tested on earth by connecting two 4.40 sand bags and dropping them to simulate a sudden shock as that sorta simulates the same force that the ties would be under if the mass of two bodies were suddenly flung outward into space. Also, technically you aren't weightless in orbit, you weigh the same as you always do, you're just falling forward faster than you are falling down, and everything around you is falling at the same speed so it feels like you're not moving.
@@VergilArcanis To an extent it's not. It's not really possible to be weightless, it's possible to be without momentum, theoretically... But... In comparison to what? With a universe that is expanding and moving around us how could one possibly measure a state of motionlessness. The thing is that on the international space station, you weigh.... probably a little less than you do on earth, but not by very much. If something happened that arrested the momentum of space station, and you, it would just fall directly to the ground at whatever it's terminal velocity is...well.... Actually it would burn up from friction but you get the idea. Motion in space time is weird to comprehend in it's totality. And frustrating. The further away you get from earth the faster you have to go to maintain orbit, but the slower you have to orbit... So out at where our weather satellites are, which have a higher orbit even than the moon, they are traveling so fast that time dilation is measurable, but their orbit is also so slow that they basically sit as a fixed point in what we would consider the sky. So in that, the space station will appear to move across our sky multiple times at much greater speed, even though it is actually moving much, much, much slower than the weather satellite which from our perception sits still. But I'm not going to go into time dilation and momentum and mass and etc because that will authentically break many people's brain.... Even I have to invent fictitious scenarios to entirely wrap my head around it.
@@ParadoxEcho when i say negated, i mean in a 2-D chart pointing out vectors, different direction forces can "cancel" out gravity, menaing the vector value is the same as the force of gravity. it all depends on what point of reference you use. For orbital weightlessness, the gravitational pull is cancelled (or negated) by the force applied by the orbital acceleration (like in rotational kinematics) or in most people's vernacular, Centrifugal force. Outside of a set system like that, the distance between celestial masses make it confusing, like you said, making the direction hard to tell if not downright impossible.
About the astronauts laughing at thier own near death experience: Its like working as an EMT and seeing horrible things every day. You almost have to have a dark sense of humor to survive mentally.
When i was at a hospital a little while back, i overheard a conversation between 2 ems's. I can't remember exactly what they said but they were making jokes of how often people are found dead in their own car. Hearing that made me realise how true your comment is.
I can hear the narrator quite clearly without him shouting the dialogue out at the audience. And regarding the life of an Astronaut you literally submit your heart and soul to the job. Up in the ISS you can’t phone in to take the day off. Total dedication to the job and of course the country or countries you represent.
@@garfield2279 Wasn’t it just, but I’m far to patient for my own good. And fortunately there are real docu’s and good narration, but as for this? “Could do better” is being generous. Take care of yourself and “the hearing aid.”
i honestly cry when movies show them float away or get abandoned it scares me so much to even imagine that happening, nobody should experience such a death. i already spend too much time thinking but in deep darkness ?? floating??? alone?? yeah thats a legit nightmare.
I think it's cool, but I hope they don't stray too far and lose their niche. Maybe just stuff related to environments, biology, or maybe even science-fiction related to animals.
Nice one? They totally scammed us with that friggin Skelton pic into watching this as if someone had floated away then never mentioned it again. I guess Nice jobs appropriate if ur referring to scamming folks into pushing ur button.
What an amazing video. My 11 year old son is obsessed with outer space. This will be a great video for us to watch together. Space videos help us bond; much like I imagine you and Steve bond over making videos. 😅
And everyone else's, eventually. Though actually, there have been breakthroughs in radical life extension (like reversing the age of skin in an "elderly" mouse to a young one, like the equivalent of regenerating an 80 year-old human's skin to that of a 25-year old), you still eventually would die, and/or philosophically, become something totally different over the eons than you were when young, if we ever got to the point people could somehow keep regenerating their health.
whats even scarier to me is, having infinite life support inside your suit, infinite water, air, food, medicine. living a full 100+ year life because of a computer designed to keep you alive. just floating for the rest of your long, slow, life.
If we ever got to that point of having our technology that advanced for slave exploration there’d also be a design of some sort to “self destruct” in the event you can’t get back to the station and your life is seemingly over
I have been preparing for space exploration myself. I have been practicing navigating my home in a wheel chair, with items in my hands and arms. It takes just as much patience and training as the Astronauts get! Try it for yourself.
I've noticed that Steve's brain has been evolving all this time 😃😃😃. This one is very smart compared to the one in the earlier videos. 🤔🤔🤔🤔Who knows he could become the next DaVinci or Einstein. Way to go Watop 😍😍😍
You guys don’t know anybody in real life that’s intelligent? You call someone on UA-cam making a basic video Einstein and DaVinci? Please read more books.
My favorite "astronauts have nerves of steel" anecdote involves John Young in 1981. During launch of STS-1 his blood pressure and heart rate never got above normal. Once in orbit, rookie Bob Crippen said "wow! Look at that view!". John looked out the window and casually said "it hasn't changed".
0:04 Actually, the most dangerous moment is during re-entry, the temperatures can get up to 3000 degrees Fahrenheit and if the rocket is off by even a few degrees you have a good chance of burning up.
This honestly sounds like the most beautiful way to die. Nobody wants to die early I get that. But your last moments surrounded by the heavens, slowly drifting off to sleep? Sounds pretty good to me.
Ok, you have opened my mind to some new information and I like it. Since I'm thrilled by the work we do in space, I'm hoping it is for the good of human kind. Travelling in space nice but I'll wait for the newer version.
YES! Space content. Love the animal stuff too. However......floating away, also known as 0gravity is my only fear in life not that of harm etc done to my loved one's. That Gravity movie is like my The Exorcist to most. Funny and confusing thing is.....I love the water!😅
I think that's because with a lack of gravity you're getting sucked up into an endless vacuum, with water you don't have to worry about that cause you still have a connection to earth.
It's not Zero Gravity. Gravity is still a thing what you're no longer feeling is the G-Forces. The ISS is still experiencing the same Gravity we are, Orbit is a constant free fall where it never sees terminal trajectory because the speed at which the ISS is circling the planet the planet Curves away from such a trajectory every revolution. You feel weightless because you no longer feel the circular force of the earth physically moving you through space. Like when you have a hanging plate with a cup of water on it and you start circling the plate around and the water doesn't move. Same thing.
Honestly, it’d be pretty wild in old age if they’d allow those who desire it to load up with a suit, jet pack, lots of oxygen, and just let them fly into void of space. It’d probably be a long death but likely an interesting one
@@MultiVeeta What’s your point? OP is only talking about sending those dealing with the impending fatality of old age into space to enjoy the deep void of space before their oxygen supplies run out. There is no “one year.” There’s, as has been stated, like 7 hours tops. Furthermore, not once did OP claim the surroundings would change during the time period. They only stated the duration before death would be interesting. You’re making assumptions.
@@TacitSwine750 the OP literally said it would be a long death. What you think they are just going to have rockets on standby for when people suddenly reach a critical stage of their life. What they gonna do launch them from the hospital. No wonder this World is going to sht, too many adults think out loud on social media like 5 year olds.
I'm terrified of heights but I find being airborn in a plane or something like that keeps me perfectly calm. I am an inch away from a depression breakdown and I suck at math so I'd never make it like these folks.
I think the "jet packs" are actually called an mmu or "man maneuvering unit" and the water that filled the one guys suit probably came from the suits cooling system which cycles water through small tubes embedded in the astronaut's underlayer.
I think jet pack may be a misnomer here, as technically jets only work in the presence of atmospheric oxygen, anything beyond the atmosphere, must be a rocket ergo, a rocket pack!
I met one of the SkyLab astronauts once in the visitor center in FL. Now I know why the doorways are so wide, these guys have the biggest balls on the planet. And they shrug it off saying it was just doing my job. One thing we all have in common, is that every day we put our lives in the hands of the engineers who built our marvelous technology. We truly do stand on the shoulders of giants.

We were talking about space travel the other day and someone brought up a question I was not able to answer: How are the astronauts able to survive passing through the Van Allen Belt of radiation when the spacecraft and suits were not made with radiation protection? I wasn't sure how to respond.
From what I know, the Van Allen belt is the earth's magnetic field capturing and repelling solar radiation away from earth, protecting us, and the space station and other equipment needing repair sit within the confines of it, so the astronauts who go up to maintain the equipment don't actually pass through it, but if they were to break free and drift away, they certainly would and it's unlikely that unlucky astronaut would live as long as seven hours. The Apollo missions broke through the belt and I think the astronauts were exposed to some radiation, but not enough to kill them, as their craft were built with some protection. Hope this helps, as I'm no expert
I think it's kinda simple; they do not exit/"pass through" the belt. The ISS orbits well inside of it, or under it, point is, it's most definitely shielded by it. When they do, like on the Moon, they die of cancer many years later, or quicker, depends how much time they spent and in how intense radiation. Take this with a grain of salt tho, it's just my basic knowledge possibly mixed with hearsay, put out in a crude form. Consider doing your research, try to find credible sources. That's probably what I'm about to do too.
@@hunormagyar1843 Well to begin with they never foot or put a foot on the moon they couldn’t get to the van Allen radiation bell the other thing is they simply didn’t have the technology to land and get back the whole thing was fake. As you pointed out the ISS is in a low orbit you can actually see it with binoculars. Best regards from the state of Kentucky.
The martian is a great movie, really goes to show how truly terrifying it can be to be a astronaut. If Mark Watney was real, well it would be a miralce.
Hey WATOP ! :) I love your videos ♥ Keep it up ! BUT I have a very small request.. and it might be helpful to very many people ^^ Could you maybe also use the metric system in your Videos ? much thanks. ♥
I had this concern for several years. How can I be sure gravity won't just quit on me and I'll float off into the endless void -- or bottomless pit? While swinging on playground swings I feel continuously thrilled and terrified for this reason, and enjoy it. I thought a lot about why things might coalesce in the first place, and after finding help came up with an answer. Won't bore with details unless someone wants to know.
@@SteelsCrow Rest easy. Gravity ain't going anywhere. Unlike lyin' unreliable humans, the Laws of Physics can be trusted!* 😀👍 *Does not apply to Black Holes. We don't know WTF is going on inside those...
@Context I used to have dreams in which I was falling onto the sky/space as if was a pit because the gravity failed all of a sudden. You are not alone.
@@SteelsCrow I would like to know. I have this strange feeling while on a roller coaster my whole body is towards the sky. I am strangely more afraid of flying away than hitting the ground 😅
@@MegaAnirudhsharma More afraid of flying away than hitting the ground? Now that is curious. The feeling of weightlessness is a legitimate reason for terror as it accompanies falling and precedes hitting the ground, in our planet-hugging experience. Anyway, you must be asking about my answer. I am a nerd about growth mechanics. All things appear to be motivated by growth, because anything that isn't is dying until it perishes utterly. 'Growth' includes expanding oneself, making copies of oneself, and cooperation between individuals to become part of something greater than oneself. I compared a universe with no gravity -- totally even dispersion -- to a universe with gravity -- concentration in dense bodies -- in terms of how well each promotes growth. The difference is almost binary. Dispersed matter rarely interacts, while concentrated matter literally can't get away from other matter. Proximity transforms matter into more powerful things. To me that was a compelling argument as to why gravity is a thing, will always remain a thing, and not quit on me.
I had a dream about 3 weeks ago that an astronaut was left out in space holding onto something. It was one of those dreams that seemed so real and that I know the man and they left him to die. They could have reached him even but they thought he did not survive whatever accident it was that caused him to drift away. They just didn't look for him. I was crying as if I was truly grieving. I finally settled down and prayed over it in case someone really might need help. It was awful. I pray this wasn't one of my dreams that actually happens later.
David Bowie and Peter Schilling knew exactly what they were singing about. Basically if something goes wrong in space NASA just says "Bye Felicia" and you are done.
It would be like working at the very bottom of the mariana trench, anywhere where you are a long long way from home, in an alien and hostile environment that the very medium that your station sits in could kill you in an instant.
“Had he not been able to find his way back by touch no one knows how this story would have ended” I’m pretty sure everyone can guess how that story would have ended
So Mr. WATOP roped me in with the idea that at some point an astronaut floated away into space and was never recovered. Yep, just a dead man orbiting around in an antique spacesuit. There was no other way to get me to sit thru a middle school-level film on tethers and jet packs BUT to lie and dress it up. Therefore WATOP goes on my list of sites to pass by.

Yeah bro heights are the only thing I fear
@@BossOfAllTrades what if you have a spacesuit??
am not afraid of heights am afraid of falling
Honestly if I was floating away into space with no way to get back to the station, I’d probably talk to Mission Control to try to get in touch with my family to see if I could talk to them one last time, then I’d ask mission control to help me figure out the easiest and most painless way to die without having to wait until my air ran out. Although, by running out of air you’d eventually pass out from the carbon dioxide and lack of oxygen for an ultimately painless death, but again that’d take many hours. Likely excruciatingly long, and anxiety inducing hours. And I don’t know that I could handle sitting there with my own thoughts for that long knowing what’s going to eventually happen.
That’s terrifying and tough to wrap my mind around. I hope none of our incredibly brave astronauts ever have to experience that.
It would actually not be painless because you’d be slowly suffocating
It’s not like one minute the air is there, then the next it’s gone. It is gradually reducing and over those 7 hours you start to suffocate and gasp for air that isn’t there
@@MM-we4no Well ya, I suppose that’s true. You’d have trouble breathing which would be quite uncomfortable I imagine. But once you got to a certain point the oxygen would be too low and you’d just pass out. Maybe it’d be better just to pop the seal on your helmet then. Idk. I’m just guessing. It’d be unpleasant any way you look at it though because even doing that wouldn’t be instant or painless. Scary thought.
They'd most likely tell you to chill out and enjoy the view for whatever time you have left. Slowly induced CO2 poisoning is like getting drunk. Then you die but you're too fucked to even know.
@@thelittlestmig3394 Right. That’s what I thought. I’ve seen videos where they take people into hyperbaric chambers and have them take off their oxygen mask and after just a matter of a minute or so of being off oxygen they increasingly get giddy and behave as if they were drunk, and if you don’t put the oxygen mask back on eventually you’d pass out and never wake up.
As the previous commenter mentioned though, depending on how quick it onset, you might feel like you were suffocating depending on how quick the hypoxia set in. Which I’m not sure about, I’m no expert or anything. From what I’ve seen with pilots in hyperbaric chambers, they don’t seem even slightly distressed when they take off their mask. But then again, the chamber pressure is usually set at like 30,000ft or something, so there’s still some air, just not enough to keep your brain functioning for very long. I imagine in a space suit it would be similar because there’d still be oxygen to breathe, just not enough. And hypoxia sets in pretty damn quick at 30,000ft. This is all guess work by me as to how it would go in a space suit though. Lol
ye from what I understand your brain will slowly have less oxygen available and work less and less actively. So it will feel like you're getting sleepier and sleepier and eventually just fall asleep, then go to coma and eventually reach brain deadness.
But ye the anxiety can still be very real.
This and being stuck in a broken submarine at the bottom of the ocean are two of the scariest situations imaginable.
If I were to get lost in space just floating aimlessly and no one could help me, I think I would just take off my helmet to end it alot quicker.
I would suggest against that as it would cause all the fluid in your body to begin boiling, air in your bloodstream to expand, and you'd begin suffering from some of the worsts pains possible for about 2~3 minutes... and that's if you didn't hold your breath. Slow asphyxiation would be better.

My head starts spinning and I feel dizzy just thinking about being lost in space and drifting away into nothing. And if you were near the Earth, being able to see it would be both beautiful and heartbreaking at the same time. So close but yet so far. Kind of reminds me a bit of the stories of people who fall off cruise ships out in the open ocean and end up drowning after treading water for hours. Watching the ship slowly getting further away would be like watching the Earth, only far less spectacular. Trying to remain calm in either situation would be next to impossible.
you would prob remain in orbit like space debris until falling down eventually, you would have to be much further away to be drifting into space
Well to be fair, running out of oxygen is the most painless way to go. Hypoxia feels like going drunk, having a good time and then falling asleep feeling a little tingly (assuming you can get rid of the carbon dioxide acidifying our blood and making it extremely uncomfortable). When we consider the other options being death by starvation, dehydration, radiation, or being exposed to the vacuum of space, running out of air definitely the way I'd choose to go.
Have you ever hit your back that hard, that you can't breath. I bet you didn't. Or else you would NOT type this . Not a nice feeling. NOT a nice way to go.
@@inthelight565 Hitting your back and going out of air is entirely different from slowly suffocating. Losing breath due to impact means you also experience pain from impact and actually got a sudden shift in oxygen. You gradually losing oxygen over a long period of time is a lot less noticeable than that. For one it'd take ages and secondly if there's not enough oxygen provided to the brain you'll lose brain functioning over time to the point you might as well be drunk or have a good time. There's even a hormone we make on when we know we're dying that actually makes sure you feel kinda okay. Forgot the name but the youtube channel Roanoke gaming has some great explanations on human biology and the various ways you can die. One of the things he explains well is how the human brain reacts to different situations. He did the Lazarus effect, and that has the explanation on the hormone.

The fear of massive objects, the fear of the void, and the fear of heights. Falling into the void is probably the scariest thing for me.

When Bruce McCandless was testing the MMU, he was untethered and got pretty far from the Shuttle. You could hear the concern in the NASA ground controller's voice when they talked him into coming back. I think they were concerned that he was going "Major Tom" on them. 😃
How dramatic. Good movie footage
Bruce McCandles. Related to Chris McCandles? The dead one?
Finally. Someone brought up space oddity. I already posted about how disappointing it was that no one had mentioned Tom.
And then the Rock said: Know your role, and get your monkey ass back to the shuttle, jabroni. Vast nothingness is about to go one on one with the Great One. If you smell what The Rock is cooking.🎶
Untethered eh? So can you explain to me how he eventually caught up with the fake station that's going 17.500mph round the water testicle lol that's some jetpack that mind looooooool???
I once had a dream that I was an astronaut, repairing a satellite. When I looked over my shoulder I would see the earth. This might sound weird but I could feel myself floating … it was such a beautiful dream… so so beautiful.
I feel like Astronauts aren't credited enough for their job's, they are severely underrated.
From an engineering standpoint: Would it be possible to install an emergency valve allowing the astronaut to vent their own air supply into the maneuverability module in a worst case scenario? IIRC the current gen of those space jetpacks have about 70-90sec of thrust before they're spent which is really not a lot of control, even accounting for not needing constant thrust in microgravity.
Thats a pretty piss poor amount of fuel for being in space. Im sure they could easily fit a different or more gas without too much weight. All you need to do is provide propulsion. Of course I dont know how much thrust it gives but still
That would increase the risk of some valve or other part giving out, possibly disabling both your oxygen and thrust at the same time. I don't know if the added complexity and risk would be worth it even if it would be possible.
I'm not sure this would work but I was thinking of some kind of magnet, maybe attached to the extreme points of all of the crafts, stations, etc and each suit has one as well as a switch that controls the field- oversimplified, turning them off and on. And if they started floating away, flip the switch that turns them on, causing them to be drawn towards whichever one is closest. The problem i see though is interference with all kinds of other equipment. But I'm no engineer and have zero idea of space construction so I'm not sure what everything is made of, nor how everything works. It seems likely that not all space equipment is equal, seeing as it has been developed and installed over decades in which technology has made huge advances but that all least some would be interrupted by a sudden magnetic field.
Easier solution.
Leave the suits as they are.
.
Have a belt with 2 cannisters or a seperate item that all astronauts carry when outside of the shuttle.
.
It'd be the equivalent to wearing a life vest on a boat u wear over your clothes.
.
Attach a suicide canister for the worst scenario and maybe a a personal belonging capsule.
.
It'd be a fair amount of effort and thought towards their last moment.
2 canisters for returning to base and 2 canisters for if u can't.
1 for ur last moment.
And the last to end it.
90 seconds of continuous thrust is a TON! It’s space, one little psss and you’re heading in the direction you want, forever, until you give a neutralizing burst in the opposite direction of travel
Space travel is an excellent thought experiment on the Dunning-Kruger effect (the less you know, the more you THINK you know). Most people probably have very little fear of space travel, or colonizing Mars, because while we generally know it's dangerous we don't have any relevant personal experience to make it real. We THINK we know the risks. Now, think about diving deep under the ocean or flying in a small plane in bad weather with a lot of turbulence. Most people DO have experience being underwater, and flying in a plane that encounters turbulence, and that fear is visceral.
that doesnt sound scary. losing your save files sounds scary.
No. No. No no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no.
Fuck the ocean. Space is way better. Fear factor? I'm not afraid of space at all. I don't care that it's dangerous. To touch the face of God? That's amazing.
But the OCEAN? You seen what kind of fuckery happens down there? Nope. Nu uh. Nah.
That is such a basic and half stepped breakdown of the dunning-kruger effect. Stop and consider the fact that maybe some people just don't let their fear rule them. Given the opportunity I would absolutely fly away from everything on this f****** planet and never look back. Even if I died within the first 5 minutes oh, it would be worth it

We differ substantially... I don't like even the thought of the idea that this would never happen to me.
3:40 Note to those who may wonder. Technically weight is a measure of how much gravity is exerted on you, and thus you on it. What we're talking about here is mass and momentum. This system was probably tested on earth by connecting two 4.40 sand bags and dropping them to simulate a sudden shock as that sorta simulates the same force that the ties would be under if the mass of two bodies were suddenly flung outward into space.
Also, technically you aren't weightless in orbit, you weigh the same as you always do, you're just falling forward faster than you are falling down, and everything around you is falling at the same speed so it feels like you're not moving.
It's always weird to think about it like that, as the weightless feeling is the force of gravity being negated by other forces
@@VergilArcanis To an extent it's not. It's not really possible to be weightless, it's possible to be without momentum, theoretically... But... In comparison to what? With a universe that is expanding and moving around us how could one possibly measure a state of motionlessness. The thing is that on the international space station, you weigh.... probably a little less than you do on earth, but not by very much. If something happened that arrested the momentum of space station, and you, it would just fall directly to the ground at whatever it's terminal velocity is...well.... Actually it would burn up from friction but you get the idea.
Motion in space time is weird to comprehend in it's totality. And frustrating. The further away you get from earth the faster you have to go to maintain orbit, but the slower you have to orbit... So out at where our weather satellites are, which have a higher orbit even than the moon, they are traveling so fast that time dilation is measurable, but their orbit is also so slow that they basically sit as a fixed point in what we would consider the sky. So in that, the space station will appear to move across our sky multiple times at much greater speed, even though it is actually moving much, much, much slower than the weather satellite which from our perception sits still.
But I'm not going to go into time dilation and momentum and mass and etc because that will authentically break many people's brain.... Even I have to invent fictitious scenarios to entirely wrap my head around it.
@@ParadoxEcho when i say negated, i mean in a 2-D chart pointing out vectors, different direction forces can "cancel" out gravity, menaing the vector value is the same as the force of gravity. it all depends on what point of reference you use. For orbital weightlessness, the gravitational pull is cancelled (or negated) by the force applied by the orbital acceleration (like in rotational kinematics) or in most people's vernacular, Centrifugal force.
Outside of a set system like that, the distance between celestial masses make it confusing, like you said, making the direction hard to tell if not downright impossible.

That Gravity movie is like my The Exorcist to most.
Funny and confusing thing is.....I love the water!😅
I think that's because with a lack of gravity you're getting sucked up into an endless vacuum, with water you don't have to worry about that cause you still have a connection to earth.
That is terrifying.. but whats even more terrifying is getting lost or stuck in underground water...
Gravity (although slightly diminished )still exists when you're in the water on Earth.. Directionality and control as well.
It's not Zero Gravity. Gravity is still a thing what you're no longer feeling is the G-Forces. The ISS is still experiencing the same Gravity we are, Orbit is a constant free fall where it never sees terminal trajectory because the speed at which the ISS is circling the planet the planet Curves away from such a trajectory every revolution. You feel weightless because you no longer feel the circular force of the earth physically moving you through space. Like when you have a hanging plate with a cup of water on it and you start circling the plate around and the water doesn't move. Same thing.

Honestly, it’d be pretty wild in old age if they’d allow those who desire it to load up with a suit, jet pack, lots of oxygen, and just let them fly into void of space. It’d probably be a long death but likely an interesting one
But you would need an alternative to suffocation. After some hours a trigger should be set in motion that puts you in a coma and kills you painlessly.

The work Kermit the frog is doing these days is brilliant.
The first video i ever watched on youtube that actually scared the shit outta me. Floating in space for 7 hours 'til you run out of air is nuts
An ancient astronaut that lost containment on the way down once said he passed out in seconds and never knew what happened. Luckily he survived.
Huh? I don't get it
As in the Ancient Astronaut Theory?
Space seems so peaceful and beautiful to me. I can’t wait to get there ❤
My respect for astronauts has increased by 1,00,000 times
imagine as an astronaut drifted away from spaceship for long hour, suddenly encounter with an alien being....wow
They slowly push him back to the ISS because they wanna see what happens
Alien says I'm your uber back,hop in.
And then you can't make yourself understood? Of course it WILL happen someday.
We were talking about space travel the other day and someone brought up a question I was not able to answer:
How are the astronauts able to survive passing through the Van Allen Belt of radiation when the spacecraft and suits were not made with radiation protection?
I wasn't sure how to respond.
From what I know, the Van Allen belt is the earth's magnetic field capturing and repelling solar radiation away from earth, protecting us, and the space station and other equipment needing repair sit within the confines of it, so the astronauts who go up to maintain the equipment don't actually pass through it, but if they were to break free and drift away, they certainly would and it's unlikely that unlucky astronaut would live as long as seven hours. The Apollo missions broke through the belt and I think the astronauts were exposed to some radiation, but not enough to kill them, as their craft were built with some protection. Hope this helps, as I'm no expert
The answer is because they lied they never went through the Vandale in radiation belt they never landed on the moon it was a big hoax.
I think it's kinda simple; they do not exit/"pass through" the belt. The ISS orbits well inside of it, or under it, point is, it's most definitely shielded by it. When they do, like on the Moon, they die of cancer many years later, or quicker, depends how much time they spent and in how intense radiation.
Take this with a grain of salt tho, it's just my basic knowledge possibly mixed with hearsay, put out in a crude form. Consider doing your research, try to find credible sources. That's probably what I'm about to do too.
@@hunormagyar1843 Well to begin with they never foot or put a foot on the moon they couldn’t get to the van Allen radiation bell the other thing is they simply didn’t have the technology to land and get back the whole thing was fake. As you pointed out the ISS is in a low orbit you can actually see it with binoculars. Best regards from the state of Kentucky.
@@Americanpatriot-zo2tk Do you ever foot or put foot?
The martian is a great movie, really goes to show how truly terrifying it can be to be a astronaut. If Mark Watney was real, well it would be a miralce.
3:08 this is probably me as an astronaut
Fun Fact:Along with testing the MMU,Challenger was also the first shuttle to land at KSC on the same mission
Hey WATOP ! :) I love your videos ♥ Keep it up !
BUT I have a very small request.. and it might be helpful to very many people ^^
Could you maybe also use the metric system in your Videos ?
much thanks. ♥
I second that
He really should.
I always wonder why people would still use the imperial system since metric is the only real and logical system
I hate y’all. Just because you Had better education doesn’t mean everyone else in America has
@@figl100 The Imperial System made it to the moon. Just saying.
Very nicely put together video and very entertaining as well. Thanks for posting this.
Just floating looking at earth would just send my anxiety intolerable. 🙈😂😂
I'm scared by looking in space.
My childhood nightmare is just by looking at the blue sky: giving me a feeling like I'm falling. Idk why is that.
I had this concern for several years. How can I be sure gravity won't just quit on me and I'll float off into the endless void -- or bottomless pit? While swinging on playground swings I feel continuously thrilled and terrified for this reason, and enjoy it.
I thought a lot about why things might coalesce in the first place, and after finding help came up with an answer. Won't bore with details unless someone wants to know.
@@SteelsCrow Rest easy. Gravity ain't going anywhere. Unlike lyin' unreliable humans, the Laws of Physics can be trusted!* 😀👍
*Does not apply to Black Holes. We don't know WTF is going on inside those...
@Context I used to have dreams in which I was falling onto the sky/space as if was a pit because the gravity failed all of a sudden. You are not alone.
@@SteelsCrow I would like to know. I have this strange feeling while on a roller coaster my whole body is towards the sky. I am strangely more afraid of flying away than hitting the ground 😅
@@MegaAnirudhsharma More afraid of flying away than hitting the ground? Now that is curious. The feeling of weightlessness is a legitimate reason for terror as it accompanies falling and precedes hitting the ground, in our planet-hugging experience.
Anyway, you must be asking about my answer. I am a nerd about growth mechanics. All things appear to be motivated by growth, because anything that isn't is dying until it perishes utterly. 'Growth' includes expanding oneself, making copies of oneself, and cooperation between individuals to become part of something greater than oneself.
I compared a universe with no gravity -- totally even dispersion -- to a universe with gravity -- concentration in dense bodies -- in terms of how well each promotes growth. The difference is almost binary. Dispersed matter rarely interacts, while concentrated matter literally can't get away from other matter. Proximity transforms matter into more powerful things.
To me that was a compelling argument as to why gravity is a thing, will always remain a thing, and not quit on me.
I had a dream about 3 weeks ago that an astronaut was left out in space holding onto something. It was one of those dreams that seemed so real and that I know the man and they left him to die. They could have reached him even but they thought he did not survive whatever accident it was that caused him to drift away. They just didn't look for him. I was crying as if I was truly grieving. I finally settled down and prayed over it in case someone really might need help. It was awful. I pray this wasn't one of my dreams that actually happens later.
Yes because praying will do something.

Lol
Aww sorry your dream made you feel that way..was just a dream☺️
David Bowie and Peter Schilling knew exactly what they were singing about. Basically if something goes wrong in space NASA just says "Bye Felicia" and you are done.
Astronauts should be trained to always save a burst of fart for emergency manoeuvres
It would be like working at the very bottom of the mariana trench, anywhere where you are a long long way from home, in an alien and hostile environment that the very medium that your station sits in could kill you in an instant.
“Had he not been able to find his way back by touch no one knows how this story would have ended”
I’m pretty sure everyone can guess how that story would have ended
Genuinely never thought of the idea of a space murder. Fascinating
"Why Won't Anyone Save an Astronaut Who Floated Away Into Space?"
*Proceeds to describe how someone would save an astronaut floating away into space*
when you mentioned murder i immediately thought of among us, i swear my brain has no return
Sounds SUSSY.
Wouldn't it be smart to have an oxygen supply to tie into on the outside of the station in case there is an issue with the airlock?
Those tethers are incredibly strong and the ppl are weightless. I do like the jet pack illustration tho😂
Thank you for an intetesting and informative video. I learned a lot. I have both a fear of heights and small spaces. No space travel for me! 😱
I thought we were arguing with cats for killing out the wolves today ;-;
6:53 *Dropped into the jungle of the Philippines*
Filipinos: 👁️👄👁️
So Mr. WATOP roped me in with the idea that at some point an astronaut floated away into space and was never recovered. Yep, just a dead man orbiting around in an antique spacesuit. There was no other way to get me to sit thru a middle school-level film on tethers and jet packs BUT to lie and dress it up. Therefore WATOP goes on my list of sites to pass by.
"well there goes mike" me watching other astronaut drifting into space
A wonderfully informative video I greatly appreciate this one especially
10:56 this is called amongus imposter
I'd be so scared to go to space considering the fact we have to climb so many feet out of earth into space id be having anxiety attacks left and right
This dude sounds like a slightly less unhinged MyPillow Guy
