You tube is endless

So surfing the vastness of you-tube and stumbled across a tank that is blowing me away. I like the design of this tank and baffled on how it works.
Check it out and let me know what you think.

Can't watch youtube here at work. I'll have to check it out when I get home.

You set up a vacum (suck) and the water fills the void. There is more info on fresh water tanks set up this way. I have even seen a video on how to make one

AH hah, so the trick is out. Seems like it would be a mess if power was to shut down momentarily. Or if the pump stoped working. I guess unless you put a check valve in there to keep the pressure, but then I am not even sure if that would work, thanks dog frog for the info I was just trying to figure out how that thing works.

the first video if u notice the big tank below had 2+ inches below rim of water plus n overflow in the back so if the small upper tank lost vacuum it wont flood the floor!
the other guy is screwed ! LOL
