Water engine was invented but never developed

I rather use a battery that having to go to the gas station every week!

Yeah -- If it is so simple, why invented but not developed it yet?

Why there is still no explanation?

Or maybe they have one, but still some hidden advantage behind.

It is appalling that an innovation of this magnitude could be overlooked by the American public. This invention provides a cheap and efficient way to transition the masses of American cars to non-fossil fuel based vehicles. This video looks like it could be from the late 80's. In the time since then we have spent billions if not trillions of dollars on oil yearly. I feel as though a turn to hydrogen based fuel cells would be beneficial to both the economy and the environment. The shift away from oil is necessary as most of the American public knows. I feel that a movement towards this type of energy would stimulate jobs in the economy as well as provide a much cleaner environment for our children to live in. This is technology that needs to be paid attention to.

exaggerated claims do not equal false claims...and hydrogen can be used and is used to power vehicles around the globe and has been in use for some time, the efficiency of creating hydrogen is in much debate( ie. how much power is used to separate water, and is that power produced from coal?which is dirtier/more expensive, petrol or coal? etc...).
the same questions abound when dealing with the air powered car(how much power is spent compressing the air?)
and the electric car(most power from your local grid is still produced by burning coal and can cause a lot higher pollutant/produced electricity ratio than petrol.
Solar or wind are arguably the cleanest methods for producing power, they are just not efficient enough to be public use viable for most applications as yet...but their getting better fast.

I'm slowly beginning to understand why Bush got elected twice...

Google Nikola Tesla- There's a guy who should have had every idea to fall out of his head patented and manufactured. We could have had electric cars 100 plus years ago... Just think of how we could be living now if his technology had been used then.

Cosmic Spiral

I think your referring to the first and second laws of thermodynamics.....you idiot.... Here's an interesting
bilateral article about Hydrogen fuel cell technology

http://www.culturechange.org/hydrogen.htm

You idiots do realize that what he's proposing runs against the very laws of physics?

if his water fuel engine didn't really work and all this was really bs then the guy would not have been poisoned. The oil companies would lose everything if this came out in the open. Thats why it never did.

WOW! As soon as the reporter said that the pentagon was interested, i already knew what happened!!!!!!! Can you believe? that the industrial/media complex has lied to us, making it seem as though this technology is new and in development, as though it never was., the F%^ING Media LIES To us every F%^ing Day!!!!! like Nothing!!!! WTF? WOW!!!! They've known about this for decades, they've kept it secret because they want us to remain dependent on ^&*^%ing OIL!! Like little F%^&ing Idiots!! They treat us like SH%T in a barn yard!!!!!! When Are WE gonna WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!?? Those bastards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm really angry by the way......

WHAT THE HECK!!! Why are we sooo controlled by the government!

Why are you guys voting this story up? That's a bogus "invention", the report is from the early 80's (you could have at least used the latest "water car" incarnation named Genepax), and it only takes average education to understand that you cannot create something out of nothing.
Leave that stuff on YouTube where it belongs. Current TV deserves better than that.

This is old news it's a hydrogen fuel engine and it is being developed! Thought this was a news site!

How unfortunate that more people don't do things like this! We need these kinds of solutions NOW.

Oh yeah, this is for real.

So is cold fusion.

And bigfoot.

And UFO abductions.

And God.

This story is a waste of time...old news - it's a hoax, and all you suckers have been had because you didn't know any better.

Read up: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water-fuelled_car

Water run cars have been out for a while. Using an alternator to produce electricity to break down the water has also been around for a long time. Remember science class and breaking down water into hydrogen and oxygen.

anything is possible, someone just has to figure out how to do it.

lol imagine a world run by dasani, nestle, and ice mountian instead of exxon or shell

I don't believe articles that are so low on facts. If it is so simple, then why can't anyone explain it? Printing the MPG and showing grainy video of a car with some decals doesn't make the science possible. I want formulas, calculations, and something that makes sense.

All lot of things have been invented but never developed. This is due because of the big companies that would loses money if these kind of inventions were developed.

Water cars are not feasible in a water scarce world. Also, how could it run on water alone? You would be filling it up every few miles! Looks like something oil companies would introduce as a "water car" to play on peoples' ignorance knowing it still needs gas to run to make profit. Again, in a water (potable) water scarce world, this is not feasible. Why people can't push for electric cars is beyond me. And why this made it to the top baffles me even more. I suppose that is because people really do not understand what the world is now going through regarding potable water sources or they just don't care. And haven't we seen this here like many times before already?

Btw, if you want to believe and promote a car instead that uses one of the elements as fuel and actually works without faking it, check out The Aircar. At least that's a serious project and not some stunt that gets airtime on your local TV station every time the oil price is up again.

This is very real..... god bless Stephen Meyer for his fantastic invention. Unfortunately he was killed for oil profits and they dressed it up to look like accident. Notice in the broadcast how an "official from the pentagon" was coming to review Meyer's invention for a possible usage in the National defense system and possibly powering tanks off it. Horrible that this man and another great Tesla were buried despite their colossal impacts toward humanity.

I don't understand the wish to step on to this Engine. It is obvious the engine also depends on another source, hence the battery that is always mentioned in these videos. Initially, a battery powers the process and then the battery is re-generated. So, if the movement of the needs 20% electric 80% water power, it is still a Water Powered Car.

Amen, sammysoul! But I agree with stopnoise that it is important to highlight this debate for discussion. It's not that I wish to suppress this story (whether bogus or not) but that I'd like to illuminate the history around this long heralded, but spurious claim.

If anyone has meaningful proof of a "water powered car" that works as discussed above, I'd love to have you point us to that online...

I believe it was Carl Sagan who said, "It's important to keep an open mind, but not so open that your brain falls out!"

;-)

Apart from Justin, have all of you forgotten what you learned in physics class back in High School?
If this engine would work just on water alone it would be a perpetually running machine, which is impossible. Imagine the process:
You need electricity to split the water into hydrogen and oxygen, then you combine the two to create electricity again. There's nothing gained here, hence without an outside power source this car won't move an inch. This story is complete BS. The "inventor" in the clip is probably using some hidden car batteries to keep the process running. "22 gallons to cross the US", come on, that should already tell you that the story is a joke.
Hydrogen is not an energy source in itself, it is only a means of storing energy. Big difference! You need to expend energy (from fossil or renewable sources) first to create hydrogen. Then that hydrogen can be used to create electricity in a car for instance.
In my opinion, we will have plug-in electric cars before we'll have hydrogen cars, simply because you can save yourself the unnecessary step of creating hydrogen.
Lastly, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

Not at all. This is not really a scam. Just because some idiot posted something about it, then it's fake?

Then it is official, this is a scam! My apologies to everyone I sent emails recommending it! Leaving the post here sure will prevent others from posting this again in the future.

Justin, if THIS were actually 'true', then NO amount of MONEY in the world could have held this back!

So where are they? A figment in somebodies overactive imagination?

This is exactly what we need! Salt water cars!

It is disturbing to see these people building the engines we needed a decade ago! Why didn't they emerge and will the current ones actually emerge?

Really, pinchot? Have you looked into these claims for yourself or are you just responding with a knee jerk conspiratorial retort?

the oil companies buy these plans and sit on them because they make much more profit with gasoline engines. meanwhile heat waves kill people all around the world.

I heard this man was murdered and it was made to look like a drunken accident falling off a train...

The same thing was thought up with hydrogen.. good luck with it, but I have a hunch it's actually BS.

I think that the oil companies will buy the patent and bury it next to jimmy hoffa

I know a man that has taken his older Chevy truck and done pretty much the same thing.
He says his doesn't work with fuel injection engines.

I'll buy two!

If you can use any type of water that seems to be a good way to go!
