History Water Fuel Car

In fact, the first internal combustion engine ran on hydrogen made from water in 1807. Between 1807 and 1986 was a time of great development for hydrogen cars. From the first Rivaz car designed by Francois Isaac de Rivaz of Switzerland to the Hippomobile to the GM Electrovan to several models designed by Musashi, hydrogen vehicles grew by leaps and bounds over these years.

History

In 1989, an inventor by the name of Stanley Meyer claimed that he ran a dune buggy on water instead of petrol. He alleged that he had created a dune buggy which could travel across the United States on twenty-two gallons of water. He replaced the spark plugs with "injectors" to spray a fine mist of water into the engine cylinders, which he claimed were subjected to an eletrical resonance . The "fuel cell" would split the water mist into hydrogen and oxygen gas, which would then be combusted back into water vapour in a conventional internal combustion engine to produce net energy.


He died in 1998 while celebrating the success of his invention with his brother and two financial backers from Belgium. Although his cause of death was stated as having been a brain aneurysm, many have speculated that he was poisoned so that the news of his invention would not spread and decrease the need for foreign oil. At the time of his death, Stanley Meyer had twenty patents on many water-fueled inventions. Who knows for sure?

Some of Stan Meyer's patents expired in June of 2007. But as of yet, no one has been able to duplicate his experiments. No one has been able to make an internal combustion engine run entirely on water.

Top 10 Dangerous Shark

Shown on 7th Nov and 14 Nov on Earthvision, access by the International Shark Attack File (ISAF), a compilation of all known shark attacks that is administered by the the American Elasmobranch Society and the Florida Museum of Natural History. The American Elasmobranch Society is a professional organization comprised of international workers studying sharks, skates and rays. More than 3,200 individual investigations are currently housed in the File, covering the period from mid-1500's to present. Many of the data in the File originate from the voluntary submissions of numerous cooperating scientists who serve worldwide as regional observers. The top 10 deadliest sharks are listed below

1) Bull Shark
Capable of living even in fresh and muddy water for over 4 years, greatly known for attacking people.








2) Great White Shark
Surprisingly dropped its placing to 2nd, due to slow in breed and population is declining. Can grown up the 8m in length






3) Tiger Shark
Excellent swimming garbage collector, but research shows that its more keen to attack stuffs that float than submerge.







4) Oceanic Whitetip Shark
Do not mistaken as Whitetip reef shark, totally different shark. One of the most aggressive shark in the ocean, known for its far reaching scent.





5) Mako Shark
Fastest attacking shark.







6) Grey Reef Shark
The fear competitor, danger if it's in school.








7) Sand Tiger Shark
A born hunter, eat each other since young and its terrifying nightmare teeth.







8) Hammerhead Shark
Super-sensitive shark. Got a total of 9 different types of hammerhead sharks. Any of these types, grown up to 15ft is consider dangerous to human.





9) Blue Shark
Far ranging, excellant travellor.







10) Lemon Shark
Excellent vision.






Research showed that the percentage of shark attack is very rare, even more rare than any household accident. But if a shark do attack human, the chances of being a victim are listed below.

1) Surfers - 45 %

2) Swimmers - 27%

3) Snorkers / Divers - 26%

4) Boarders etc - 2%

Advice from researchers that if you are in any shark infested area, try not to wear clothings that looks like seal, eg black, dark brown. Instead, try wearing bright coloured clothing, that will differentiate between human and seal for shark. And of course, don't cut yourself and bleed, that will definately make shark lose it's sense and turn violently. Don't try to surf board or swim in shark infested area, or even snorkel with seals, that you are definately asking for the kiss of the shark.
