Graham Hawkes: Fly the seas on a submarine with wings

http://www.ted.com Graham Hawkes takes us aboard his graceful, winged submarines to the depths of planet Ocean (a.k.a. "Earth"). It's a deep blue world we landlubbers rarely see in 3D.

So the minute one say something that don't agree with your belife system , he becomes a jerk, smug etc??

I'v been following his work for years now, and I just love this sub.. Genius sub and genius man.

Anymore when someone tries to bring the bible into a conversation I pretend they're talking about harry potter. The correct response to ridiculous statements is ridicule. If they complain I say. "Sorry I thought we were talking about the book with the talking snake and all the genocide in the name of some superwizard who's name wasn't permited to be spoken aloud and the guy who sacrificed himself to save everyone." It always leaves me chuckling.

@LusoCMD that's why I think my paragliding is more comfortable than my friend's hangglider

I'd bet there are seats in the winged submarine...

Someone tell this guy that lying on your stomach limits the length of time that you can be in that one position.

@Robstailey That's a funny statement. Tell me how you will ever reach the infinite amount of planets out there and explore them? You are deluding yourself if you believe that humans will ever leave this solar system or be able to eventually break the light barrier.

Meaningless drivel. Just bring on the cool submarine and leave the new age crap alone.

[AirstripBum]

We still call this planet Earth?!? What the heck do you want us to call it? New Age fool!

@voicewr

What do you mean, "philosophy on origins"? Everything he said is backed up by science. One only needs to venture into the realm of philosophy when denying science.
