Here is What Happens When You Crack an Egg 45 Feet Underwater

Cracking an egg underwater isn’t an easy task. But when successful, it can lead to amazing results. And quite humorous, as YouTuber Shane Brown, aka Shangerdanger, demonstrated in a recent video.

Brown is a popular internet personality who has close to five million subscribers on YouTube. Based in Hawaii, he posts all sorts of entertaining videos featuring his ocean adventures. And sometimes those adventures see him diving 45 feet underwater and cracking an egg.

“I heard if you crack an egg at the bottom of the ocean, something crazy happens,” Brown states in the video posted on YouTube earlier this year.

The clip sees Brown failing at his first attempt as his thumbnails “were not that strong,” so he does a repeat. This time he uses his second camera for cracking, and it results in a fascinating sight.

The water pressure keeps the egg whole and makes it float. The egg yolk is surrounded by translucent egg whites, making it resemble a yellow jellyfish.

After taking some time to admire the egg, Brown leaves it floating while going on the surface to catch a breath. But this turns out to be a mistake, as one hungry fish got to the egg first and left just bits and pieces of it.
