Get 20% OFF @manscaped + Free Shipping with promo code TGDP at MANSCAPED.com! #ad #manscapedpod The Abyss Coffee Co Join the boys this week as they finish the story of the raising of the submarine Squalus. The story left off with the Squalus stuck in 240 feet of cold Atlantic water and divers were attaching the new McCann Rescue Chamber to the sub to begin rescue operations. At 240 feet the divers were on air and in the late 1930's helium use was in it's infancy and still being "felt out" so it was not being employed but several events during this rescue would change that position. Join us in part "trois" of The Raising of The Sqalus!

The Squalus was a US Sargo-class submarine that sank off the coast of New Hampshire during test dives on 23 May 1939. The sinking drowned 26 crew members, but an ensuing rescue operation, using the McCann Rescue Chamber for the first time, saved the lives of the remaining 33 aboard. The Squalus was salvaged in late 1939 and recommissioned as Sailfish in May 1940. The divers commissioned to rescue the trapped submariners each received the Medal of Honor. Have a listen!!

Do you know anyone who dives with the "It Can't Happen To Me" mentality? Fact is it can happen and eventually will happen if you dive long enough and/or are careless and unaware while diving.

This week the boys discuss what can be learned from this real life gas sharing incident and why these real life experiences almost never unfold like they do in the book and in class. Join Jamesy and Brando for part one of a multi part series exploring this real life gas share that should have been a simple exercise of a skill that was learned in Open Water 101 but turned deadly due to simple, easy, and often made mistakes.

Typical in many ways for many divers but when one little problem starts the snowball rolling down the hill, things can go bad quickly. The problem is trying to learn from it and not letting it reinforce bad habits.
