If the next batch of kids get stuck in the deposit tube at the bank, I'll concede. But if someone really wants to help, they put actual work into the research. It's obvious this is the product of zero time spent with anyone knowledgeable.
Read up. Many have invented some game changing technologies. e.g.
1. Self-landing rockets on ocean platform - worlds first.
2. Hyperloop high speed train - worlds first.
3. Tesla roadster -- 100% electric, 300+ mile range - another worlds first).
4. For this mission he has prototypes two gadgets: a) escape pod and b) semi-rigid, inflatable nylon escape tube.
More often than not when his teams set their mind on something they get stuff done. Fascinating stuff. Will his equipment be used for this mission? Who knows? It's nice somebody is being innovative and trying to help though.
In the Elon Musk video it seemed as if the spare air was a backup safety measure for their sample passenger, in case their prototype flooded, not the intended main air supply. The schematics would be interesting though.But it seemed kind of like an attention grab, and odd the way everyone clung to the ideas that seemed pretty mundane. In the video, they're using a spare air cylinder which has the risk of the person inside letting go of the mouthpiece and possibly not able to access it due to being shoved into a tiny tube.
