Notice the boat on deck does not get sucked under.
Very Cool - I was not expecting the boat on deck to get sucked under. But
maybe go down due to the bubbles reducing the waters ability to support
it's displacment :-)

I heard it was there as part of a Myth Busters show.
I didn't get the idea from Myth busters. But there have been some
interesting programs on the Bermuda triangle where they tested this.
Trying to see if a ship could be sunk due to the release of gas deposits
being released from the bottem. One test was in a tank with a model.
And another was with a runnabout where they had alot of equipment
pumping air into some large device to create bubbles.
It's been awhile since I had seen this and the results were very
interesting.
This sounds like what they were doing:
