re: #117 brookly red

I don’t know if it has been mentioned but someone had the idea that the leak could be plugged by inserting tire like devices and then inflating them…

any thoughts?

Yup…They are freaking car tires.. How much pressure would it take to inflate a tire at 5000 feet deep? A Nuclear Submarine build out of HY100 steel would implode at that depth in a second.. What kind of freaking tires does that 14 yr old genius think would work? Goodyear or Bridgestone?
Everybody thinks they are an engineer
