sad part is that it takes about 20 - 24hrs to run the damn riser to the bottom.

no doubt

watching the live feed, it looked pretty clear that it was going to fail with the amount of mud spewing out the riser.

60-70% likelihood of success? another number BP pulled out of their arse.

Take it for what it's worth, but you might want to reconsider posting that information.

putting an explosive at 5000 ft would be like putting a fire cracker in a closed 55 gallon drum.

not to mention what the oil companies would have to hear from the greenies once the dead fish, killed from the explosion, wash up on the shore.
