In this training film, see how the U.S. prepares its submariners and submarine support personnel to handle potentially disastrous emergencies. The USS Balao (SS-285) plays the part of submarine that has had a fire aboard and is now stuck on the sea floor. Some trapped crew members make individual emergency buoyant ascents via the escape trunk. In the meantime, the submarine rescue ship USS Skylark (ASR-20), rushes to the scene and uses its Rescue Bell (RC14) to evacuate the remainder of the crew.

One of my fondest memories of sub-school would love to do again steinke hood not so much but ... Once the hatch was open and sailor left the compartment it was just a few seconds to surface.
"Swede" Momsen was a person that had a huge part in the design of the escape apparatus used in sub rescue. Read about the USS Squalus in 1939. It's an incredible saga. This gentleman rubbed the BuPers wrong yet proved the way forward.
i know it is pretty randomly asking but does anybody know a good site to stream new movies online ?
I damage my ear drums twice because I couldn't complete this training in Sub school and now I am deaf disabled veteran.
Sorry for that
Thank you for your service!!! Am sorry you lost your hearing! My father was a member of the UDT in WWII ! I am very proud of him and you and all our military. We have a lot to be thankful for! Huge respect for all you did to protect our country!!! Frances
Don't laugh,I am very serious. I grew very anxious watching this. So anxious I had to stop,move around then come back. I could never,ever qualify to do this. God bless you brave guys
I have confined space training and welded in some pretty odd and tight places. That being said, there is no god damn way I would have been able to be a submariner!!! I can breathe where I weld, I have people around that can extract me if necessary, I will not drown in any of these places, I don't have god knows how much pressure waiting to crush me out side of where I am. Brave is not the word, these guys have balls the size of church bells and I thank them for what they do.
Happy I never had to do it !!!!
RN escape much easier. Either use hood escape and breath normally to surface or open escape lower hatch, flood compartment open upper lid and one by one blow up life jacket and duck under tower extension and up you go breathing out all the way up. Hood escape needs valves opening and closing as well as upper hatch. Last man out needs a gadget to block vent pipe so upper hatch can open with pressure in tower.
Ok captain google
I can imagine forgetting to tilt my head back on exit and blowing out my lungs. You’d think there’d be at least one life raft they could send up.
Ill look it later....
Thanks for this epic rarity
my god youtube has gone mad with adverts one ruined video
My father was in the Navy, but he has “negative buoyancy!”
I was about to say that Last Man forgot to close the hatch for the next guys.🤔
If you were talking about the individual escape, one of the crew in that compartment pulled a lever next to the escape trunk after the last man ascended. That presumably opened an internal vent valve, which would vent some of the air out of the compartment and force the hatch closed with outside sea pressure. Then the water would be dumped into the bilges, ready for the next team.
This happened only once and crew were rescued through a man ,a VIKING , Momsen was his name, submarine history is rich in people who made a difference
Whatever they're paying these brave sailors, it's not enough.
Yes, but how do you escape from the sharks?
Put some salt and pepper on your body so the sharks enjoy the meal.
i thought about being a submariner.. however, as i’m sane and wanted to have a better chance at living, i decided to be Airborne Infantry instead lol..
seriously tho.. my hat is off to submariners
I will never understand why better work wasn't done on escape/rescue at US civil war, electric & combustion engine (Holland Subs-pre WWI), and Post WWI. By WWII most of this could have been figured out. Attitude of just stick'em in there and hope nothing goes wrong!!!!!!!!! That's kinda short sighted, don't you think?
i agree, but it was war. at a certain point the equipment and the men are replaceable. their job is to try and kill while avoiding being killed, ultimately. sometimes that goes wrong. war is hell.
No life raft?
Impressive operation! Thanks for posting.
Wouldn't they get the bends? Or is the time under compression so short it's not a problem?
Not if you release the air pressure in your lungs gradually and ascend gradually. That's the trick.
PeriscopeFilm well... That decend wasn't very gradually. You should never acend faster than the smaller bubbles acend. Thats what i have been taught in cmas at least😃
The time under compression is short enough that dissolved nitrogen in the blood is not a concern. The continual forceful exhalation prevents an embolism which would damage the lungs from the expanding air as you rise. Some time after this film was made, a better buoyancy vest was introduced in the US Navy, called a Steinke Hood. It was basically the same vest, but it had a hood over the head, with a wide angle window in it, so there was better vision capabilities. It also added a bit more buoyancy for a quicker ascent. There are significant limits to the depth for this kind of escape, because of the time constraints for excess dissolved nitrogen in the blood. For practical matters, a buoyant ascent is not practicable if the sub does not have the good manners to sink in shallow enough water. Sub sailors know fully that if their boat sinks on patrol, they are on eternal patrol. The cable on the marker buoy will not be long enough, and rescue is a moot point. Best hope of rescue now is if a deep diving rescue vehicle is available and the sunken sub has settled in a fairly level attitude. (former boomer and attack boat submariner)
@@Misha-dr9rh I think the SSBNs like the Typhoon and Borei classes would be big enough to support those, but not sure about their fast-attack subs like the Akula, etc.
I would loose it if I had to do this
Good video
No goggles?
Goggles are not designed for much pressure, there is no way to relief it. Their eyes would be sucked into the goggles.
