If you drop an aircraft carrier from a height of one mile above the earth onto the cranium of an unsuspecting bystander, it will impact with a force exceeding 51,000 psi.

Okay, IIRC, this is the pressure on a whale's body at the depth of about 900 ft .....and a certain kind of Whale (probably a sperm or killer whale) can dive down to...about 3000 ft.

Well then, does it have to do with water (ie: ocean) ?

It has to be an engineering thing.


Perhaps drilling in the ocean ?

The pressure found at the inner core of the earth? The pressure a large volcano explodes with? The amount of pressure my system is capable or producing?

C'mon, fellas, you know it has to be something odd,offbeat,simple, stupid or silly. All this engineering stuff is too obvious. It's like "What's yellow and black and lays on it's side in the ditch?"
