James Cameron was asked by the United States government to brainstorm some ideas to fix the BP oil leak. Cameron, has spent over 3000 hours on deep water dive sites like Titanic and the Bismarck, and he also holds several patents for inventing cases and robotic equipment to handle extreme pressure and cold found at the ocean floor.
Turns out scientists won't be using any of his ideas. Yahoo Says:
“Over the last few weeks I’ve watched, as we all have, with growing horror and heartache, watching what’s happening in the Gulf and thinking those morons don’t know what they’re doing,” Cameron said at the All Things Digital technology conference.
Cameron said he has offered to help the government and BP in dealing with the spill. He said he was “graciously” turned away by the British energy giant.
Cameron suggested the U.S. government needed to take a more active role in monitoring the undersea gusher, which has become the worst oil spill in U.S. history.
“I know really, really, really smart people that work typically at depths much greater than what that well is at,” Cameron said.
So that's it for James Cameron I guess. Did he just get another movie idea from this?
