A friend commented on a near-death experience he had, that once he realized it was out of his control, he got very calm and accepting of it.

That's when the panic kicked in and I pushed myself up and hobbled to the shoulder. I chalked it up to being exhausted and my mind playing tricks on me but I always think about how strangely calm and surreal that second or two was before the accident. Was the strangest feeling.

I find that weirdly comforting to finally know that.

[@drakedbz]

This is exactly why I had to shake my head any time I heard someone ask why the bodies can't be recovered, or even suggest that we should try to do so. When a submarine implodes, it is _catastrophic._ Before the passengers even realized anything had happened, they were a smear between two sheets of metal. It is nearly instantaneous. Honestly, that is the best end anyone could have hoped for, if an end was guaranteed. Of course we would rather have been able to save them, but dying so quickly that you don't feel pain is the most we could ever hope for in that situation.

[@lucasporto9285]

Yeah, when they were searching for the submarine I was imagining being trapped thpusands of meters below the sea, absolutely thirsty, covered in piss and shit while slowly being suffocated... horrible, way better to die of an implosion

[@derektaylor2941]

@@lucasporto9285very few submarines can go below 1,000 metres. These specialist submersibles, such as those diving down to the tiresome Titanic are the type shown in this poorly researched film. At 1,000 metres- well beyond most Naval subs- the pressure is 100 atmospheres and that will indeed crush you but it's nothing like as much as at the sea bed and as such the idea of a submarine pressure vessel instantaneously failing is ridiculous.

[@bradsanders407]

I mean I don't think they or their families were thinking that was the best they could hoped for. Coming back alive and unscathed I would have to imagine would be the best they could have hoped for. I've explained it like this to people. They experienced somewhere around 5000psi. We can recreate that here on land with an industrial pressure washer. The one at my work is 4400psi. Now if you took that to a human body it would just blow the flesh right off the bone. Here's the major difference. It has a flow rate of about 4.5 gallons per minute. They experienced a flow rate probably well into or perhaps well past trillions of gallons per minute coming from all directions at once. It would be instant pulverization.

[@laerson123]

​@@jnh8381not only that, it is also spreading the myth that during the implosion the air would heat to a point that it would ignite stuff in the air, when that didn't happen. The implosion isn't an adiabatic compression, there's freezing water surrounding everything. Also, bodies don't desintegrate or something like that. What happens to the body exposed to that pressure: Chest is crushed, and the pockets of air on the head are crushed as well (sinus and inner ears), but everything else would be pretty much intact (well... Internally, not so much, abdominal cavity, chest, and the inside of the skull would be a mess, but the body would still be in a better shape to be buried than most car accident victims). People need to keep in mind that although the pressure at that depth is monstruous, it is still not enough to break bones (I mean to affect a solid piece of bone, bones surrounding pockets of air will be broken), or even to compress soft tissue.

One of the submarines I was on, USS Sunfish SSN 649, actually made a huge milestone of 1000 dives and surfacing's in 1996. The "keel" of the Sunfish was laid down 3 months after I was born in 1964. Quite a remarkable career for a sub.

Hello from another submariner. I was only serving on the sub for 1 year. Drafted. It was a very small sub. About 40 crew. I did try an unscheduled deep dive but only to about 85 meters to the sea floor. I am not a ghost so we got up again.

As a submariner I can tell you when the ship submerges you can hear the pressure affecting the boat. Audible sounds in sonar, we call them hull pops as the stress and pressure equalizes. Your first dive it’s very nerve racking. But after lots of training and experience you become jaded to it and laugh when the new guys hear it for the first time.

[@RockandRollWoman]

Many people have made a huge deal about the sounds in a disgustingly sensational way. (See! They knew it was about to blow! They were panicky, it was a long and terrible death!) The voices of experienced submariners like you are drowned out, pun intended, because people are hearing what they want to hear and then confirmation bias takes over. I'm curious if you know anything about external mikes that, according to some, were intended to warn passengers of an impending implosion so they could surface to a safe depth.

I remember reading an article in National Geographic about a team of ocean explorers that were trying to retrieve gold from the wreckage of a Japanese submarine lost in the Atlantic ocean. There was a picture of a running shoe they had found in the wreckage. It was from someone in the crew. The shoe was torn apart and burned. The article explained that the reason why the shoe was burned was the "Diesel" effect when the submarine imploded, which caused everything inside to incinerate in a tiny fraction of a second.

[@horizons2358]

Wow, bizarrely amazing!😮

[@tomgreene7942]

I highly doubt the Diesel effect described in this video, and wonder if it has been confirmed in tests. It seems that the correct air to fuel ratio wouldn't be achieved even though the compression could be achieved. And also, the fuel in a piston still takes time to ignite and typically would need a glow plug or other source of ignition. Seems unlikely but what do I know.

[@druefreeman439]

@@tomgreene7942 Might want to research "diesel" (as opposed to gasoline) engines and how they ignite. Also, the pressure inside a diesel cylinder is between 300 to 500 psi. The pressure at the instant of implosion on the Titan would have been 10X to 20X greater than the inside of a diesel cylinder. So, getting the air to fuel ratio "just right" would probably not be as much of a consideration for igniting any small amount of hydrocarbon vapor in the air. It's just physics and chemistry at that point.

@@tomgreene7942 you can burn cotton wool inside a syringe if you compress it fast enough the energy of the moving air particles is condensed into a smaller volume increasing its temperature the reason it doesnt happen if you compress it too slowly is that the temperature increase creates a high temperature gradient to the air outside the syringe causing the thermal loss to accelerate. so the compression and heating has to happen faster than the bleeding out of heat

When Squalus accidentally sank , the submarine that found her which subsequently launched a huge naval rescue operation was the Sculpin.

On her 10th patrol , she torpedoed and sank the 20,000 ton Japanese aircraft carrier Chuyo , the first enemy aircraft carrier sank by an American submarine and the only major Japanese warship sank by American naval action.

No Danish navy uboat ever went deeper than 100 meter, even though they supposedly could reach 250 meter. Such depths was reserved for active war situation, and not during safety concerns in times of peace.

[@krashd]

Yeah, it surprises most people that military subs spend all their life (if they're lucky) in the top 5% of the ocean as they really only need to dive deep enough to hide from ships and planes, and occasionally other subs. As soon as that huge black hull can't be spotted from a plane it is considered deep enough, usually between 200 to 400 metres, compare that to the Titanic which has a depth of 3,800 metres, or the Marianas Trench which has a depth of almost 11,000 metres...

I've been in a situation where I saw my death coming. I was 10-11 years old and had mistakenly put the wrong harness/halter on a horse so trying to rectify my mistake I tied a rope around my waist and put a slipknot on the other side and caught the horse in question. I had just removed the harness when our stallion decided the horse in question, a 3-5 month old colt, was too close to the mares and decided to run him off. I had about 10-15 feet of rope between the colt and I and was drug around like a rag-doll. I remember one of the mares kicking at me and her hoof looking like a dinner plate coming at my head. I was able to stand up and remove a knot before he started running again and drug me into a fence post with it hitting me just below the chin, I was going towards the post so I don't know how it didn't break my neck. After that I remember looking to off to my right and seeing where we had started building a log barn. Just the very beginning and dad had cut the pines to lots of short 3-4 inch limbs stubs on the logs and several sticks, branches, etc. I looked over there and knew that the colt was going to drag me through there and that I wouldn't survive. The colt was rearing up and his front legs were slashing at the air and then he calmed down the slipknot I had over his neck grew and slid over up his neck over his ears and floated through the air and dropped on me. The moment the rope hit my back the colt ran directly across the area that I had known he would. Since I've never questioned the existence of God or angels. I think those people probably had a similar experience, peace before going.

[@Aengus42]

Sadly, Titan had dropped her emergency ballast weights. These are large steel weights that, in the event of a need to ascend quickly, they can be dropped making her positively buoyant. These weights had been released so they knew something was wrong. I'd put money on them hearing noises from the hull as the ingress of water delaminated the carbon fibre. So, maybe some psychological stress but nothing physically painful. Interesting video. I didn't know about the bubble pulse effect. My rabbit hole for later this evening. Thank you. And to all you budding deep submersible designers out there. "There's a reason bubbles are spheres!".

[@SaraMorgan-ym6ue]

yeah well this goes to show why if you see any thing wrong with your subs decent like oh I don't know faster decent into the deep return to the surface do not continue on wards the Titan proves why continuing on wards when your descending faster then normal is a bad idea

[@cjc1103]

The sub had too much negative buoyancy on descent (descended too fast). After they realized they had a problem with warning signs from the sensors, and the electric systems were failing (perhaps water intrusion), so they released the ballast to abort the descent, but the sub was slower to ascend than it should have. Not that a faster ascent would have helped, they were too far underwater. In the end, they could hear the carbon fiber failing, and they were most likely terrified of all the system failures and knew they were going to die. Most likely death was instantaneous upon hull implosion. But the root cause was lack of proper design, not listening to experts, and building the sub out of carbon fiber, also crappy system design with no backups.

[@caedmonswanson2378]

Sadly the Titan submersible actually dropped weights and started to ascend unexpectedly a few seconds before the implosion, meaning the crew probably heard the hull breaking. Some experts have said that the design of the carbon fiber hull would have made a crackling noise as the water started to penetrate the carbon fiber layers, just before it broke. Seeing as they dropped the weights hours before they were supposed to and seconds before the implosion, I believe they sadly knew something was wrong.

The Titan was ten times deeper than the sub of the coast of Argentina that imploded. That means FAR more pressure and a MUCH more powerful implosion. The compressed air from the implosion at 12,500' would be instantly compressed, super-heated, then instantly dissolved into the ocean water (along with whatever was inside the submersible pressure chamber). Also keep in mind that the water slamming into itself after compressing the air in the vessel would produce enormous force. A powerful shock wave would then propagate away in all directions from the implosion, and that is what is heard from audio-sensing equipment at the surface. Human bodies would be completely gone, obliterated.

It's a weird combination of being trapped in a cramped space unable to see the outside world, along with being all alone and exposed in an enormously wide open empty space, surrounded by crushing pressure and possibly freezing cold. And that's when you're in peacetime.

[@mikefochtman7164]

As a former submariner, i'll just say you HAVE to trust your shipmates. While you sleep, you have to trust they won't screw up. From the electrician keeping the lights on, the quartermaster plotting your position, they helmsman and planesman steering the dang thing, right up to the captain, everybody has to trust that everybody else knows their job. And they all rely on you to do your job properly as well.

Fascinating video I think the escaping through the torpedo bay is awesome

[@austinmeyer]

Wow! Thanks for this great info!!!!

[@thenerd5992]

Just imagine, you’re on a submarine, not aware of any problems. Then the sight before changes from the inside of the submarine to the Gates of Heaven like a movie when it cuts to a different scene.

[@rustythecrown9317]

more like semi darkness to pitch black.

Where are people getting this "not aware of any problem" nonsense?

Maybe you don't go to heaven instantaneously.

3:30-3:40 The best realistic deep sea implosion I’ve found on KZbin! Wild to see a burst of flames in depths not even sunlight can reach

That is a clip of a man burning his fingers

[@mattjhsn]

Narrator, you make an excellent point. Maybe their last thoughts were exciting ones because the catastrophic implosion would be out of their perception. I have not heard this idea on any other news commentary.

Great work. The pressure ignition is well thought. Thumbs up alway.

[@mitnoxin]

Great video team. Very respectful and informative. May the lost souls rest in peace.

[@quantum_beeb]

It's crazy to think of all the instruments and everything inside a sub to just immediately decimate. Would be such a cool slo-mo video if you could catch it

[@boijames3253]

You can just film crushing an empty can in slowmo model. It’s basically the same

@@boijames3253 naw you dont get to see to much of the actually auto ignition of gasses, pressures arent nearly enough with the can demonstration

[@iJustB58]

@@patrykk63I wonder if the bodies are liquified at that point: like what happens to the bones ?

[@boijames3253]

@@patrykk63 i suppose you can remove most of the liquid in the can and fill it up with air, then place it in a sort of pool. Also i dont think the gasses are ignited but rather just released. The sub was confirmed to only imploded, no explosions or fire.
