A Chinese farmer completes to make his own submarine though its maiden voyage failed. Tan Yong is a 44-year-old farmer living in Lijiashan, a village of Central China's Hubei province. He had a dream of making his own submarine years ago and started to realize it this February.
Villagers help Tan Yong to launch his homemade submarine for its maiden voyage in a river in Lijiashan village, Danjiangkou city, Central China's Hubei province, August 15, 2014. |
He had been educated only at junior high school and lacked professional knowledge and skills of making such a vessel. Even so, Tan spent about five months completing a submarine which weighs over one ton. Tan is determined to keep working to make it function well soon.
