Most submarine crew who survived their boat going under, were on duty at the exterior bridge when the sub hit a mine.
They were simply swept overboard and survived the ordeal of having to reach land by swimming.
For those inside the hull, going under was death sentence.

That short of time at that pressure would not induce the bends. The pain in his lungs would have been from the expanding air stretching the crap out of them. It is very painful. Odds are his companions forgot to exhale on the way up. The bends? My ass.

That's an amazing story. As you pointed out, there's not usually survivors in sub accidents. I can't imagine the terror of it all, and keeping it together enough to save yourself is probably no easy task. Belated props to this guy

I am a Scuba Instructor, and as others have pointed out, you are mistaken about the risk of Decompression Sickness ( The Bends. They were at risk of a Barotrauma, but not -the bends- / deco sickness. Do your research mate

That drives me crazy. After all that only to be called a lier. Surely there had to have been some kind of manifest with the names of crew and passengers in that sub

Honestly, if I was this guy I wouldn't care if no one believed. I had experienced it and knew they were just plain wrong. I would just have been happy to survive.

the odds of survival werent 5%, there were 4 people who escaped out of 79 submarines, and each of the submarines had tens of people onboard, so its well under 1%

--The British Navy lost 79 submarines, and out of those, there were only 4 successful escapes- Odds of escape stood at 5%--
Try studying Mathematics.

Ummm. This is not how you get the bends. Submarines are pressurized to 1 atm. There are freedivers who literally shoot themselves back up from over 300 ft.

What idiot wrote this? Their blood gasses were at sea level saturation. a fast trip to the surface won't bend you under the described circumstances.

How do you figure your odds of survival at 5% if there are 79 submarines and only 4 escape! How many crew do you think a submarine has? --
Idiota

Sorry did you say the Brits ordered their subs- escape hatches to be bolted from the outside? Is that the dumbest thing you-ve ever heard or what?

I wish I knew what music was used in the background as I would love to use it for music therapy as a form of meditation.

I say this story might be BS. Why didn-t they look up the guys name who was somehow not on the book and see where he was
