Synopsis

Only those who took sure and immediate action had a chance to survive in conditions that killed most of a crew. Learn the terrible and heartbreaking efforts of rescuers who tried to save lives when help came too late. From the first escape in 1851 through the most recent rescue in 2005 read of courage in peace and war when a few lucky men made it out of their disabled submarines.
