I hope you enjoy this video! One note: the little numbers that pop up in the bottom-left corner are references. By matching the number to the ones at the bottom of the description you can find where a piece of information comes from in the video.
I realize it's more work but just know that a lot of us REALLY appreciate it

UA-cam needs to make an "educational" award for content creators for positively educating, not making people dumber. my vote is for Wendover (PS i love airplanes)
But learning to pronounce the word 'submarine' correctly would need to come first.
Educational award... eww!
Michael Inocente I wish I could delete your reply
William Panteleris Just the thought of people watching educational videos on UA-cam makes me cringe. This site is for killing time and watching random videos, not for 'learning'.
Michael Inocente Well then, what are you doing here?
"The chef has nowhere to hide if a meal is bad."
Me too !!
chefs are required (but dont) to follow recipe cards. our Filipino chef made amazing fried rice.. to this day i make and eat that cus of this man. he varied from the recipe cards for that. supposedly the recipe cards are formulated by the worlds greatest brains.. to keep sailors happy.. another departure from reality tho. I sadly heard the us navy no longer accepts Filipino citizens in the us navy.. so sad.. these people were the best their nation had to offer.. i think they had to compete to be a us sailor. only the very best was taken. True meaning of friend and ally... when you entrust your military to serve with them. too bad both the us and filipino govts seem to be nuts these days.. and the last 10,000 days..

@@brijekavervix7340 They claimed he was pulled out to sea... seeing as he was a seasoned swimmer and had security out of the water watching him. Its more likely there is something dodgy...
@@11kungfu11 he was swimming off the southern coast of the Mornington Peninsula which is essentially in open ocean where exist strong currents. On the day of the disappearance there was said to be a strong swell too and that he swam further out than any of his colleagues before being dragged underwater by something. Also it's not clear if he actually had security guards watching him from the shore, not that they would have been able to do anything.
Maybe Wendover or RLL should do a video on the subject.

Thanks for a interesting video!
Just a thought: Nuclear warheads don't just accidentally "go off". They're not made like that. They require very specific, very deliberate procedures to become armed and to detonate. A mechanical watch doesn't manufacture itself out of loose parts from random collisions. But still, leakage of nuclear material, although not very likely, could cause issues.

My uncle was a chef on a submarine and he said that a submarine chef is the job in the navy with the highest experience required because the quality of the food determines the popularity of the chef.
Yeah and subs have the best food from all the branches I'm told. The USN definitely knows it and does Its best. It is funny as anytime I see a submarine documentary there is ALOT of emphasis on the food. From cramming as much in the nooks and crannies to the moral of the crew.
Even the top brass put special emphasis on the food due to the moral. Fuckers were served like royalty at their own private chambers haha and had special pizza. Was like damn imagine being an officer and not getting invited to that table.
I want to try their pizza. Heard its good.
The food is great, I miss the hot fresh dinner rolls!
Hey former US Navy Submarine nuclear operator here. Pretty good video, tho I have a few small notes. Fast attack submarines (which also include LA class, of which there are still many) do not have blue and gold crews. You just work like dogs all the time and it never fucking stops.
Also one of the most important aspects of submarine life is earning your dolphins, an insignia on your chest indicating you are submarine qualified. This entails getting a decent understanding of damn mear every system and piece of equipment on the entire vessel to the satisfaction of multiple system experts and completing a board where you demonstrate the knowledge all over again to the satisfaction of three high ranking people on board. This typically takes about a year of diligent study to complete, but it can vary wildly depending on the submarines culture.
imagine being the crew member reading all those thirst emails...
One time an entire division of guys emailed their wives asking if they wanted them to lick their buttholes when they got home, mostly as a prank to the guys reading the emails but also to see what kind of responses they got

Hii I'm oscar from jakarta Indonesia,
Too bad the submarine has been declared subsunk, but Thank you for your attention, 😀🙏
I am sad to tell you this news. The rescue operations failed
@@Le-eu4bf like it was said in the video, its way too difficult to rescue a submarine. when the sailors face a problem during the mission, they know that they have to fix it by themselves. otherwise they would dead
"3 months, without sunlight, in a metal tube." That should freak anyone out!🌊🌊🌊🌊
Actually, it's quite the opposite. It's quiet, smooth. No rough sea rocking & rolling like surface vessels. If one is in Engineering on a surface vessel you actually are not much more able to be outdoors than on a sub. Tell me what's the difference? Being in an enclosed engineering space with jet engines, turbines, motors, switchboards with no windows or being in a sub with no windows but a lot more quiet, having better climate control temps and not dealing with sea sickness when the ocean is rough.
@@RC67010 actually, it’s a bit of both, many crew members who had to live on submarines have said it is also scary, cramped, boring and repetitive. You also started to compare living in a submarine to working on a surface vessel and decided which is worse? When the original comment never even mentioned it so that was completely irrelevant. Living in a submarine is clearly not all fun and calm as you’re making it out. Actual navy members have said their stories so I suggest you research that lol

@@ServicePortalGuy lmao come on man don't leave a civvie hanging, what were the main things that were off? I'm so curious!
Looks like I found the FT thread. FT2 USS Wyoming 742(G). I recognize a few shipmates from the missile compartment 3rd level and control room B-roll footage. That video was of the blue crew, however. Generally pretty accurate information. I agree though, only discussing Boomer longevity is half the conversation. Fast boats have the rough deployments. Six months is a long time, even with port calls.
"... the meal quality deteriorates as the weeks go by."
Or as my buddy in the Navy put it, "Towards the end of a deployment, we enjoy 'Cream of Bottom Shelf'. "
"The Chef has nowhere to hide if the food is bad" 😂

One does not simply leave a submerged submarine
Hmm questionably timed recommendation UA-cam
10:12 - This really just includes the weapons sinking with the boat. Nuclear warheads are failsafe, not fail-deadly, so they need to be intentionally triggered in a many-step process. Even if they were caught in an explosion, they would just release some radiation at most without actually causing a nuclear explosion.

Who’s here after hearing about the tragedy of OceanGate’s Titan sub?
This is an awesome and educational video on how and why submarines exist. Anytime I watch something about submarines with nuclear capabilities, I can't help but to think about Stanislov Petrov, the man who is credited for saving the world from a nuclear disaster on a Russian submarine back in 1983.
And where are the *aircraft launching submarines*
Yeah the I-400 was fucking crazy.
I believe Japan was making some during the ww2 but sabotaged them after they lost the war.
@@jayasuriyas2604 Japan produced two of them, but they were extremely complicated and couldn't go very fast or deep and could only carry 2 to 3 planes. Even if they could carry more, there weren't many devastating aircraft that could take advantage with such a small runway. One of them sank as a result of design flaws, and the other was grounded in an attempt to destroy it. This one was later found by the US Navy.
Not forgetting the Royal Navy's M Class... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_M-class_submarine
Manned or Unmanned? There are subs that can carry Cruise Missile. Cruise Missile is basically an Unmanned Kamikaze Aircraft.

Stop relating every submarine video to that tragedy, dufes
Well well well. Who's here after OceanGate?
Well well
I'm an old U.S. Army Field Artillery Officer. I know very little about Naval Warfare. Thanks so much for the video! Where I can relate to the Navy guys is when we were in movement. In the Army/Marine Corps, whenever you move with vehicles you have to cram everything imaginable into/onto the vehicles. It gets cramped very quickly. I spent many a night attempting to sleep in on top of bags/boxes of supplies. The vehicle element of movement is very cool, but, it means you have to cram your self, your soldiers, and your supplies into a "miniature submarine." Again, thanks so much for the video my "floating" brother-in-arms.
"But given that these subs are equipped with nuclear weapons, one can only imagine the consequences of a more damaging collision." Yes, I can imagine. The consequences would be... nothing. Because, you see, the people who build and design nuclear missiles aren't stupid. They know that they are building enormously destructive devices. And they realize that making it so that bumping them could make them go off is a *bad idea.* So, in fact, nuclear warheads are designed to only work when a very precise number of things happens in the right order. This is why shooting down nuclear missiles is a safe thing to do, because there is very close to zero chance that you will accidentally cause the missile to detonate.
Right? I was like "well, literally nothing"
Weeeell, the local environment might become a tad inhospitable if you break open a nuclear warhead, but I suspect those things are probably sturdy enough to survive a collision at submarine speeds.
@@SoWhat1221
Depends if the casing containing the uranium is cracked. Even if that happens, it's not that much uranium. Yeah, okay, if the local marine life get within and stay within close proximity to it should that occur, they could develop cancer. But compared to the devastating environmental effects of something like an oil spill, I'd say a few chunks of uranium drifting to the ocean floor is pretty dang minor.
I think its more to do if the subs sink and the warheads go missing
This is mostly correct. However, nuclear bombs detonating even a short distance above the earths surface are practically entirely safe. This image shows 5 volunteers standing directly underneath an exploding nuke: media.npr.org/assets/img/2012/07/16/atomic_test_wide-07e7e66830aed641fd2415b0830685acd012a04f-s800-c85.jpg
IIRC the rescue submarines go down about 3000 feet. That's probably a ballpark guess of the "true" maximum depth of US military submarines.
The inertial guidance thing was pretty neat, too. Reminds me of the part from "Hunt for Red October" where navigating that way is described as trying to drive a car with blacked-out windows using only a road map and a stopwatch.
The idea of two submarines colliding in the ocean is just hilarious to me
It has happened quite a few times, but this is the only instance I know of where neither sub knew the other was present.
i’ve been inside a submarine and the people that work on them don’t get enough credit for the way they sleep. THEY LITERATELY SLEEP UNDER TORPEDOES
For a junior sailor new to the boat and some more senior ones they get to cuddle torpedos all downtime
Kenneth Almaraz not on uk boats.. official crew all have a proper bunk whether it's hot bunking (trafalgar class only now), or not. Temp cots in bomb shop only used for temporary conditions...😀
Hey its a fuckin godsend to sleep in the torpedo room me being a torpedoman its fuckin great
no they don't.
I guess it depends, I've been inside a couple of old ones and they didn't sleep under torpedoes. Anyway, if something went wrong I would care much if the torpedo exploded over me or 20 meters away, everything is fucked anyway.
in quarantine, I have learned a lot of critical knowledge than the whole school life i've been through.
I realize this is an older video, but I must site an inaccuracy in one aspect of the video. A submariners day is NOT based on 24 cycle. It is a 18 hour cycle. 6 hours on watch, 12 hours for sleep, study, etc. Numerous documentaries have pointed out this fact as well as interviews with submariners themselves. Other than that, a pretty good video.
That has changed, US submarines operate with 24 hour days now
@@0714bc Right on. Changed only in the last 6-8 years.
Hello, may I ask why humans are building Strange metal objects and dropping them in our habitats?
Coz we can
So we can end the world if we want

You have a point. Hopefully in the future submarines will be produced for sea exploration and restoring marine ecosystems. That's their best advantage!
there's a joke about this being a video about planes for water somewhere but i can't find it
There was a size comparison between the biggest submarines in the world and a Jumbo Jet.
It's the top comment.
@@Asdayasman well it wasn't when i commented that
I was truly frightened only twice in my Air Force career, once when I worked with CINCLANT out of NAS Keflavik (part of Air Forces Iceland), and learned how many Soviet subs were in the Atlantic and just how close they were parked off the Eastern Seaboard. Never found out where OUR subs were.
Its funny how just sensors that were not military was used to track the soviets.
Just remember uboats were not far from the US east coast at all. They could literally attack new york if they wanted to with minor damage but still cause a panic.
It's insane the amount of effort humans put into making war with each others
I am a former submariner (USS Lousiana SSBN-743 Blue Crew). There was a critical error in your video that is public knowledge. We do not operate on 24-hour day cycles, but 18-hour cycles when we are underway. So you are on watch for 6 hours, then off for 12 hours. This is due to the fact that we never see daylight so no need to operate our days based on solar cycles and the fact that oxygen is kept very low so we are lethargic.
Thank you for educating us. Why is the oxygen kept at a low concentration?
@@geddon436 Apparently it's to help impede how quickly a fire can grow and spread. Electrical fires are somewhat common on ships and submarines and risk dooming the entire sub and crew if a large fire were to happen while deeply submerged.

@@paranoidise6458 a single water molecule on its own is dry, but it's you have 2, the second molecule makes the first wet and vice versa.
This is a great video, very educational. The line mentioned about the chef not having any place to hide had me in stitches🤣🤣. I had visions of him hiding in a torpedo tube. Great info, thanks for the upload.👍
All fun and games until the hatch shuts and your hear a water pump start
This seems to be one of the most accurate videos describing submarine life. Good shit.
Submarine life looks fairly comfortable these days. Certainly in the second world war it looked horrendous on diesel subs. Those vessels had to surface to run diesel engines to charge a battery that allowed them to go underwater for short limited periods. They were cramped like a sardine can and the oxygen system on board was rudimentary and it got hot and humid too fast. They didn't go very deep either.
If anyone wants to see how life in diesel subs was like see the German war film Das Boot. The sailors were keenly aware at all times that they were going about in what was potentially an extremely cramped coffin.
Certainly pal. The history of it is really interesting
Not to mention when the snorkel got covered by a wave when recharging batteries the engine room would suck the air from compartments and cause pain in the inner ear.
highly recommend the new sequel of the same name. also, 80% of u-boat crews were lost at sea.
They could go deep ...the life aboard was so best the smell was so baf people on port would throwup when a u boat comes in for repare
I saw the original model used in the movie das Boot in the bavaria-films studios.
It feels really claustrophobic to be in there, even when you know that you‘ll be in there just for a few minutes.
I can’t imagine what it has to be like to live in one of these cans for a few weeks or even months
If a pregnant woman swims she is a human submarine
Why, just why...
All i wanna know is why
That's one way to see it

I never realised just how massive some submarines are, the ingenuity it must take to desgin these machines is incredible
Very interesting, informative and worthwhile video.
One guy farts, the whole crew suffocates. You gotta be crazy to enroll
That's why I think submarines should be crewed by women only, because obviously they don't fart, poo or pee.

I was thinking of renting a submarine and checking out the wreckage of Titanic, anyone care to join me?
i recommend oceangate
Only if it has luxury amenities and a spacious room with a view. 😄
the submarine knows where it is because it knows where it isnt.

Can you be a little more specific????

Jesus, working in a sub sounds both freaking awesome, and terrifying at the same time.
Its really neither.
Worst thought is no worse than being on a surface vessel that has been blown away. End result is the same.

I've been to the VLF transmitter at that location in Exmouth, WA. Starting about 50 kilometers away, you can just see massive radio towers and radar dishes everywhere as you get closer.
Thank you for the scale perspective. I’ve always wondered actually how big a submarine is
I've been inside a class-attack submarine though and it is tiny inside even though it looks big outside
As an Argentine, the line about submarines never beeing found send shivers down my spine. For those who don't know, a year ago the submarine ARA San Juan suddenly dissapeared. Many nation helped us find it, but it was only found last december (almost a year to the very day after), and it still hasn't been retrived
What if the "dedicated officer" received a sad message about his family??
Aight this comment sucks i know.
Nope its a junior ass radioman like a first sea tour guy on a lot of boats. The senior guys hate reading email also not all of them have to be read. They run a program looking for certain words then read only the ones with those words.
Well can't do anything, you can't just pull up anywhere with a submarine
If I get one of these will it come with Pavel?
Will I become a kapitan?
I can just imagine the French and British subs surfacing and a brit saying "Ya bloody french, you dented our boat"
As a brit i can confirm we would say that then we would call them snail eating b*******
The 100-year ware has ended, we are now in the 1,000-year war. Keep up.

I'm a Navy Brat, more specifically a Submariner Brat. And this information is pretty good for the fact that a lot of information about submarines is still highly classified. But one critic on this. It isn't pronounced Sub Mar En Er but Sub Mare In Er.
Pronounced like the Rolex watch?

I really like how consequent you are with the references! Makes the information transparent and easy to check!
Thank you for putting Taiwan as a country at 1:21 - this is the type of Wendover content I want to see.
