Chinese Man Who Created DIY Submarine Out of Oil Barrels Makes Water Debut

Using nothing more than two years, $4,385, and some good ole hard word and ingenuity, China native Tao Xiangli created his DIY Submarine. We like to keep up to date with people and objects we’ve written about in the past so it’s our honor to let you know that the DIY Sub made its water debut on September 3.

Made from discarded oil barrels, the sub includes a periscope, depth control tanks and electric motors. Despite the small budget, he seems to get around pretty easily.
