Smarter Everyday visits a submarine.

[actaeon277]

The YouTuber Smarter Everyday does a bunch of science stuff, and high speed camera stuff.
He just visited an IceEx, and then traveled on a submarine.
He's going to make this a series.
He already has the first part out, at the base on the ice.
This is a second one, on the sub.

Thought some may find it interesting.

That's a good video. I'm a little surprised not to see the 8 ft ceilings and bright, large rooms with white painted walls that we always see in the movies. Care to explain?

Movies lie?

Do you mean "Down Periscope" was not true to nature? Now I am disappointed, since I love that movie.

Don't even get me started.



Though it was hilarious.

Those areas are classified, no access for land lubbers with cameras.

Very cool video, a lot of knowledge and respect for sure.

Thanks Act. Been waiting for part 2. I watched the first and he said his footage was being reviewed to make sure he wasnt showing anything secret. Glad to hear its out.

Wow, makes me glad I was ASW where we saw the sun and the bars every day.

The sun is highly overrated.

We had a guy transferred from a Cruiser.
He saw green flares all day during a fleet ASW exercise, and asked his chief what they were.
The chief told him, they signified the sub announcing that it "shot" a ship.
He was not happy with the ratio of kills/deaths.

Boats or targets, take your pick.

You mean you didn't have Lauren Holly on your sub with you?

I love the interior scheme, makes for an incredibly comfortable looking atmosphere.
