On July 29th 2023 the underwater driving world record was broken by the Mudcrab Landcruiser. The team drove the heavily modified electric powered Landcruiser 7kms & 30 metres underwater across Darwin Harbour with 30 divers rotating behind the wheel.
LCS 4x4 and I got the call up to make some express parts to help the vehicle do the crossing. We then made the journey to Darwin to witness history.
This video covers the underwater crossing itself and goes into the detail on, dive logistic, route & tides and gives and insight into the team behind it.

This one of the most Australian things I have ever seen 😬

@TheAussief1 11 месяцев назад

It is one of the most Darwin (or North Territory) I seen reported. This year.

@oldfarthacks 10 месяцев назад

Hold my beer and watch this eh? The fun thing is that this is just the start. The next one will be across from Long Beach to Catalina.

@piccalillipit9211 10 месяцев назад

Have you seen the aircraft firing lasers and fireworks to derude Sanstrom??? Its even more Australian ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n1GEr8w5EAo.htmlsi=2AKRf2hKgdao2nt7 The most insane thing Ive ever seen and its at a public airshow

My favourite quote "My ex-mother-in-law is way scary than any crocodile or shark that I have seen.." Love it along with the typical Landcuiser handbrake rock.

@althejazzman 11 месяцев назад

I had to rewind 3 times to hear that properly.

@FarmerFpv 11 месяцев назад

Mother-in-laws are a whole different species from the rest. Very scary indeed.

2 brothers who ran the Ampol petrol station at Warners Bay NSW in 90,s drove a Nissan Patrol across the bottom of Lake Macquarie from Marmong point to Warners bay. The Patrol sat out the front of the petrol station on display while being built. It was a petrol engine and had a floating pontoon on the surface with snorkels going down for air intake and exhaust. It packed it in half way across and was towed to shore by a barge.

Just heard about this on the Bob & Tom show today here in the States and this is awesome! As one of the guys on the show said, probably the first time in history a sea urchin could become roadkill 😂

@F7skillz 10 месяцев назад

*on the phone with insurance* “What do you mean my tires aren’t protected from sea urchins!?!!”

@goodisnipr 10 месяцев назад

@@F7skillzSir, we have determined that a fish put that urchin in front of your path. It was an act of cod, which we don't cover.

@antoninlee 10 месяцев назад

Amazing! first thought that came to mind when the guy mentioned they did extensive testing at 100 PSI, first thought was... they were better prepared than that one submarine a couple months ago~

This takes "Down Under" to an other level entirely. Cheers!

@jameshatton4405 11 месяцев назад

This is awesome! I didn't know if they could actually do this or not? I was worried but thought that it's possible? Good on them and all the people that have supported this achievement👍

@ScottSillis 11 месяцев назад

Well done fellas and everyone involved! Mate this is legendary and will put Australia on the map for many years to come! Looking forward to what comes next. YEEWWWW 🍻🥃🥃🥃🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺👍😎

@outlawdingo3020 11 месяцев назад

Bloody legends, great work by all involved and the boys behind the wheel. My grandad attempted to drive a Volkswagen under water in WA back in the late 60s-70s but came to the same fault as the old og cruiser

@rgb002762 11 месяцев назад

NOW that the crossing has been done . There has to be a race . THEN we can BET on it..That's the Australian way..

@pieman2656 10 месяцев назад

Mate I'm from New Zealand over the ditch, all I can say is get a bunch of Australians (good buggers), a random idea, a few beers and a BBQ and boom. The human spirit is one of the few forces that can't be measured and Australians have amazing spirit. See you at the World Cup may the best team win and the others continue the dream of one day, hopefully ours isn't a nightmare????? By the way I had shark for lunch.

Big shout out to the guy who potted the electical boards and batteries😂

@joecarr9476 11 месяцев назад

Maybe filling the tyres with a soft gel with a low pressure rather than water would give you more tread, just as low air pressure on dry sand give a larger tread pattern. You could simulate that with gel and just weigh down the car with lead weights if needed.

@kadecampbell8098 11 месяцев назад

Gel is more dense than water, and provides more rolling resistance. Filling them with water while underwater is similar to filling with air while in air.

Upon reading about this crossing on a N.T Newspaper I was worried about live WW2 bombs that could still be in the bottom of the harbour, but apart from that, you guys have done great, way to go mates and thanks for the vid👍😁🇦🇺

@JamiePineappleWyatt 10 месяцев назад

you guys need to add electric to the title before mudcrab, I didn't realise it was electric till quarter way through the video till you guys told us, throw it in the tags too! You'll pull even more attention ;) This thing is fuckin sick boys!

@DOWNTOWN_AUDIO 10 месяцев назад

I love this!! So australian, and also like, guys!! A freaking EV drove underwater through a harbour for 7km completely submerged! If that doesnt prove that theres a future in EV's then i dont know what else will!

@redhammer9910 11 месяцев назад

What a great story. They saw, they weighed it up and they conquered. Only mad buggers in the NT would think of it. Well done !

@OverwatchSIX 10 месяцев назад

As soon as I saw tires, despite them. I thought silty bottom. Any reason why not to do tracks? Bunch of R&D out there to have a track setup work. It's only crawling anyways.

@richardbugg6206 11 месяцев назад

Its great ! I love it ! , but why did (do) you need a wind screen (wind shield) , so underwater bugs don't fly into your face ?

@captinfubuki9728 10 месяцев назад

i may not have a Landcruiser but im happy with my lifted awd chevy express 1500 got it setup with a snorkel and a tank so it can go under running for a decent while but it is airtight so needs it ballast or it floats sadly i gotta fix it because some doughnut rear ended it but otherwise i think yours is the better option for crossing like that i bet the pressure would crush my van in and i would need a exhaust hose because at about 24 ft deep cant get the exhaust out but thats for a future revision

@bjorngve 11 месяцев назад

Well It´s an open goal. If they had failed. They´l be the true Darwin-award winners for ever. Now car managed, driving/floating the whole distance. Still I´d say James Bond had the "Moore" sophisticated solution. But, you did it for real, Well done, 30 divers, you did it. Now you got the ultimate rain-proof (Japanese) Jeep.

YOu guys are F awesome man! I got to hand it to you Australians you dont F around when it comes to building some serious machines. Plus and FJ I mean it does not get better then that. It might be a good idea to pair up with Tesla and create a new submersible product

@jb5music 10 месяцев назад

Try customizing the Jeep with giant outboard rubber-tire-less huge diameter pole spoked wheels with paddles for traction similar to hill climb spikes. I don't think that would be cheating.
