How One Man Built His Own Spacesuit

Up next: Man builds his own rocket

Could you open source the suite so that we can help you fine tune it and perhaps all use it in the current state of Corona, please :)

You can go up to 24,000 feet before you start needing oxygen so it’s sad he only made it to 5,000

did he found final frontier design

it doesnt matter that he is doing something that has allready been done, he is really loving his own path

They should employ him as a consultant to see how they could make a space suit more economically viable rather than re using 4 from 20 or more years ago

Why didn't he study engineering like mechanical and or Aerospace would help him out more in space flight travel knowingly what he's doing more than studying archaeology

I’m confused, does he not know that a hot air balloon can’t go to space

He didnt even wear the spacesuit that we saw

sucks to think very select few people will actually be able to go into space once we start colonizing other planets etc. who will really be able to do that? rich people? genetically superior people? makes you think how people wpuld be selected/curated for such things.

I have so much honour in my heart for this man 😍
Truly admirable ❤️

Nasa in a nutshell

He is very astronaut worthy. Hes a fucking lunatic that risks his life.

So inspiring

HONEYYYYY
WHERE
IS
MY PRESSURE SUIT??

Sometimes my genius is frightening it generates oxygen.

Have spacesuit, will travel!

wish I could have something to be passionate about as this awesome dude

What an inspiring man!

Sorry to say that a hot air balloon cant go to space. This man is an old child

sus

what an extraordinary man.

Dude’s suit make spacex’s suit look like garden gnome costumes, honestly this guy’s suit looks better.

NASA : sees this video your acceptable we need more spacesuit

he better make a manned rocket now

Among​ us​

WOW 😳

How has this not been seen by more people???

I feel like reaching 60000 feet altitude with a hot air baloon is harder than making a spacesuit

You know when he basically says that he believes fully that he can go to space one day: I cried.
Because I’m the same.

Cameron, I am so happy to see you did this!

We need more of them COVID is not going anywhere so we All need one

Truly an inspiring story and a great lesson on how far the human ingenuity can take us if we have the right mindset. Awesome!

The sad part is that the sky is not "outer space". If it was an infinite vacuum, we here on the ground would not be breathing air. Yes they lied about all this "space" nonsense. It's science fiction. The second law of thermodynamics prevents the sky being open to the vacuum of space.

Hope he does a book on it.

I didn't know a hot air balloon could reach 60,000+ feet, let alone carry enough fuel to get up there and down again.
When you said your suit was showing 1psi, how could that be? You were basically at sea level. If you meant 1 psid, then the suit would've been at like 16psi which would've made you rigidly immobilized. Just some curious thoughts I had watching this. I do envy your determination and resourcefulness though. I wish you luck!

What a WASTE and CLICKBAIT video. DOWN VOTE.

Dr. Smith is currently my professor and he’s the goat

I'm doing much the same thing, different approach.
Hard-shell articulated suit (think AX2 variant) acts to constrain inflation of an inner fabric/rubber suit.
The joints of the rigid suit don't have to be air-tight, making their design/fabrication much simpler.
The air-tight bladder needs some care around elbows and such, but the shells provide the constant-volume constraint needed to reduce operator fatigue and 'inflation posing'.
A lubrication system (lots of grease!) keeps the bladder and shells/bearings from binding or abrasion.
Really good range of motion!
Dunno if this how NASA did it, as I can't find a lot of AX2 'hard-suit' data out there...

No longer you are your own worst enemy you built your own space suit I’m done w yo

What university major is for creating Space Suit for astronaut?

Gorgeous piece of music (composed?) for this mini documentary. What a guy. I'm rooting for him.

does this guy have a DIY guide, this would be sick to replicate lol

He is a real genuine Hero....
