Question, post one on this thread, I am getting a "handshake fail" from the server on that video, is it just me?. Has the vid been removed or something?. Yeah; working here, too. Most likely either an issue with YouTube or something on your end.

I hit the "try again" button under the "secure connection not verified" notice, and it eventually crawled in on my screen. I am checking notifications to see what was the issue in the logs... Seams my extra paranoid image blocker didnt like the preview pic of the video for some reason?.

Should start at the 10:54 mark -
You need to lower a ramp so that you can get your air boat over it.
The solution?
Find four barrels that are filled with air. Slip them into a metal "basket" that's under one end of the ramp. The air-filled barrels will want to rise, and as such will, supposedly, push the basket upwards... which will push the ramp down.

well, the physics would seem to be valid (based on the description - I didn't watch the video) but there's the question of getting the barrels under water to put them in the basket.

And one from the host himself:
Should take you to the 1:18:34 mark.
He uses a revolver identified in-game as a "Magnum" to shoot the top off of an explosive gas canister. The canister vents, then ends up flying into the muck.
Cue the host himself asking if that's how a cylinder would behave.

ell, the thrust it would develop would be dependent on how hard it was pressurized.

Assuming that is a 55 gallon drum and it's empty, 55 gallons of air would displace 459.25 lbs of water, minus 40 lbs for the weight of the drum, it wold take 419.25 lbs to submerge a 55 gallon drum. That's got to be a heavy Hazard suit Gordon wears

That's got to be a heavy Hazard suit Gordon wears At this point in the game, Gordon's also toting around a crowbar, an automatic pistol, and a sub-machine gun. So that's going to be adding to his combined weight as well.
