Fix the BP Oil Spill Idea-of-the-Day (#2)

June 3rd, 2010. By AbiK

Mike C. wrote in with our Fix the BP Oil Spill Idea-of-the-Day. He’s been thinking along the lines of angioplasty, which seems to be a popular idea. Here’s what he says:

Idea-of-the-Day to Fix the BP Oil Spill (#2)

“Insert a long tube with a heavy duty rubber balloon in the inside of the hose releasing the oil. Then insert it like doctors do with angoplatic for heart patients, but leave the balloon. If it still leaks insert another, then another untill it’s clogged up?”

Got an idea you’d like to share? Let us know. Or email our editor at .

Thanks Mike!
