Most toilets on ferries around Venice still work like this. Venice has a great waste removal system, at low tide, pee just runs into the water but poop gets stuck to sewers, then at high tide the tide takes away the poop.
Then tourists romantically run their hands into the canal water from a gondola ride…while RFK Jr. swims past doing laps.

“No thank you”??? Tf do you mean, what do you think fuckoff big blue whales do?
Pissing down into a body of water is one of life’s subtle joys, and you poo-poo the prospect of pooping into one?

at that height you’re never going to get satisfying laminar flow. it’s gonna just turn into mist.
But no chance of the Candiru swimming up the urethra.

but then my neighbor yells at me to get out of his pool.
My fear would be the floor breaking out underneath you.
Imagine if it had a rattle.
moat won’t fill itself up.
You can even see the wall’s discoloration from decades of shit.
At least four decades.
England is doing this with extra steps. We just dump our raw sewage in the sea. Yay for privatised water companies.
Nothing says “I’m British” more than getting sepsis due to falling from a narrowboat into a canal that could possibly have Excalibur or dangerous feces.
in the sea
really? I thought they took the nearest stream /s
Both is correct, depending on the timeframe you’re looking at.
Imagine dropping your phone
Don’t know if things have changed, but that’s what toilets on trains looked like when I was in high-school. You could see the ground rushing under you.
Were toilets on Zeppelins that way too
Where I’m at, those have changed quite a lot. But I remember the floor shitters as well.
If the floor were solid maybe…
But can you imagine trying to take a shit during bad storm or even a hurricane?!? That shit would be intense. Might be something like a nuclear Poseidon’s Kiss. Or maybe a kaiju sized bidet.
Tried to poop, got a 35,000 gallon ocean enema instead.
If the floor were solid maybe…
you want to turn the toilet into a shit cannon?
I have a problem with heights so the see through floor would not be something I’d enjoy. Although I’m curious about the “shit cannon”.
it’s very windy on the open ocean.
if the floor was solid the only place for all that wind to go would be through that poophole.
by making the floor slotted the design lowers the wind resistance and allows it to pass through, thus equalizing the pressure inside the room vs under it (think of it like a balloon).
also because of the small size of the hole, should the floor be solid, the pressure is increased.
this could be resolved by attaching a pipe the same size of the hole that sticks out of the bottom between 6-8 feet. I assume they didn’t do that for maintenance reduction. though, this wouldn’t stop sheer winds from shooting up the pipe.
I had not thought about this but it totally makes sense.
It does seem possible to engineer it to allow air but not light through. But given the demeanor of the folks that work on these platforms, they do not likely give two shits (pun intended) about the floor being a little open. Hell I bet most of the floors on this thing are like this.
I think a solid floor would ruin it. This looks fucking awesome
What’s with the title? I’m adding pooping here to my bucket list. I bet the sea breeze feels really nice (edit: and the plop sound would be satisfying).
I think the major concern would be whatever is in front of the main “bowl”. Is that just accumulated shit from people with really bad aim? Or, is that accumulated rust from people with bad aim and a lack of regular maintenance?
the latter. with the floor being a grate, I reckon people just freepiss in there like it’s some sort of sink. or weather and salt…
one bad weld and some rust and you’re falling, with half a turd hanging out, into the deep blue.
Less an OSHA violation and more an OSHIT violation.
freepiss in there like it’s some sort of sink
…note to self: do not wash hands at @[email protected] ’s house
id really want to free piss in there.
there’s something very primordial in me that wants to free piss in there
don’t let the world hold you back. you can tinkle right now if you believe.
no I can’t,
I just went and me bladder be empty
I think that’s whatever material was used to connect to toilet to the grate. Maybe caulk, or maybe something else.
This looks like a south east asian or middle eastern style seat with support areas for your boots, so that you can lift up the seat and climb up on it to squat. A hybrid toilet that supports both ME/SEA-style squat-usage and seated western usage (with seat down).
Brave leaning the phone over it to take a photo.
Imagine falling through
Hope you’ve got your tetanus shot
The plastic seat’s up. You’re not gonna be sitting on the metal.
Gotta wonder why the seat can even be put up, just cut a hole in the wall for a urinal and leave the seat for number 2
Its an oil rig, doesn’t matter how you configure it it’d be covered in piss in a day.
Going in the bathroom with my phone in hand: wish me luck!
id so put a bookshelf in there, also a permanent marker tied to the wall for people to log whenever they drop their phone
