Its supposed to keep you alive, its not always guaranteed it will keep you out of hospital. Any lifeboat is dangerous, free-fall lifeboats have the cleanest record of any type of lifeboat. The classic passenger ship lifeboats are the most dangerous type, as well as the type most prone to human error.
I worked for a company that did the inspections on these lifeboats We would go to all the different ports around the country Boarding vessels to do our inspections and almost every single crewmember I talked to said they wouldn’t step foot inside one of these under any circumstances I would have to crawl inside of these and conduct our inspections but when you’re up that high looking down at the water it’s terrifying and I don’t see how anyone could survive that impact because most of these lifeboats are poorly made It’s basically a fiberglass tube with cheap seats on the inside
So what type of lifeboat do you recommend? You're aware that these are tested and people survive it just fine btw? In an emergency, how many more conventional type lifeboats failed to launch, possibly because the crew didn't manage to lower them down? Did you look into this?

The problem is the US Coast Guard doesn’t regulate or mandate any type of life boat manufacturer and most of them are made out of fiberglass with metal braces around the seat and a very thin seatbelt on the inside So it’s like getting into a car crash when you hit the water after you just dropped 40 or 50 feet And to answer your next question most of the lifeboats have a lever on the inside that releases a hook and gravity takes care of the rest Also Viking is a very good life boat company they actually provide shock absorbent seats and seatbelts Most of the other life food companies make these as cheap as possible And yes I am aware of the testing I have witnessed multiple tests when we were doing our inspections out in the Gulf of Mexico and you’re right the crew members do Survive but it’s like getting into a head on collision lots of crew members have been seriously injured

What kind of situation are we talking about that requires the crew to GTFO a ship in less than five seconds?! Seriously, would it hurt to have a trailing cable at the back with a brake that slows enough of the descent to have an impact of 8Gs instead?
Imagine a burning petrol tanker, do you want to get lowered down licking the flames, the free fall life boat not only gets you down quickly but also gets you clear of the danger.
Lifeboat designs are regulated by SOLAS. In the specific case of free-fall lifeboats like this SOLAS is pathetically naïve. The design doesn´t give you enough space. For instance, it sates a separation between the back of two successive seats of 60cm. That is roughly enough space to sit without touching the seat in front of you with your knee. However, your feet wil not fit, and you´ll have to turn them either side. besides, wearing shoes makes things worse and you´ll have to bend your knee into a position that is considerable more crammed that what is allowed in tourist class airliners. And not for just 12 hours as on a plane, SOLAS expects you to stay in the boat for up to a week. Oh, I forgot to mention it: the only seated positiion possible is with your back forming a 90° angle with your legs. SOLAS also gives a daily ration of 500 cc of water, none to be drunk during the first 24hs. Why? Well, because it is assumed that you board the boat well fed and well hydrated from the ship. But this implies assuming that your ship is sinking as consecuence of a collision or flooding. If you had been fighting a fire in the engine rom, for example, for a couple of hours you will be already dehidrated. All this means that you not only have to survive the sinking of your ship: you must also survive SOLAS.
Why don’t they just make longer rails that extends to the side of the ship that provides resistance so the lifeboat doesn’t crash into the sea in free fall?
I'll almost certainly never be on any kind of sea vessel, but thanks to the algorithm, I'm a lifeboat nerd now. I really want to take that ride. How can I sign up to be one of their crash dummies?
This is old technology, not an invention. Refinement, perhaps, but very biased reportage. And the 18-20 G statement is totally unsupported. From 30 meters the boat would reach a maximum speed of 24m/s, which seems to be braked in the boat's own length, say 10m. If deaccelerated in a near linear way, the braking time is 0.83s, which translates into 28m/s2 or around 3 G. Thumbed down.
Christopher Isac I would get in it cuz jumping in the water with a life jacket on isn't gonna save you for that long while in them you can live for hours while you get the rescue ship or helicopter to save the rest and type in falling lifeboat it looks so fun
30 meters is 95 feet really long drop in water sinking ships create a suction that will pull you down quite deep hypothermia will kill you in 10 minutes to several hours if you are not protected even if the water is 80 degrees it will get you food and especially water are really important in a survival situation and the boat is stocked with both
Once had to sit in one of these for 5 hours straight due to a (small) fire on my oilrig. Wearing a survival-suit designed to keep you comfortable for sig hours in 2-degree water. We were 40 dudes. It was VERY hot, and then we even had a hatch open and were in the north-sea in the middle of the night.
I got to go on a test launch of one of these lifeboats off of a container ship in port. The short free fall was pretty exciting, but the actual landing in the water was very smooth and wasn't unpleasant at all. I was surprised to find out that the impact could have been up to 14 Gs, it certainly didn't feel that violent.
what if the stern sinks first? what if the ship is listing to one side. Offshore platforms use these around the globe to evacuate personnel. The newer ones will propel themselves even when underwater if the water is aerated from rising gas bubbles. Oftentimes the water will not support the lifeboat until it moves away from the drilling or production platform. These were becoming popular when I worked in the gulf in the 60's and 70's.
Or you could just put crane launched life boats, which are almost as fast, but much softer and they land flat. They are essentially the same thing except this stupid design obstacle is not in the way.

Is Michelle Yamamoto related to Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto ? What was said at 4:39 is not always true as the angle at which the lifeboat hits the wave depends on many issues and there are occasions when such a drop resulted in the craft looping and somersaulting forward.
what a lot of crap these have been around a long time.The free-fall lifeboat concept first in 1897 Swedish designer A.E. Falk patented a blueprint of an enclosed lifeboat capable of sliding off a ship stern. Thirty years later, the Bay and River Navigation Company’ s Capt White proposed a “unsinkable submarine lifeboat”. It wasn’ t until 1977 that the maritime world witnessed the first manned-launch of free-fall lifeboat from the stern of the m/s TARCOOLA at Oresundsavarvet Shipyard.
That thing should be called SWEET n' SOUR "WHIPLASH" ... Sweet that you may not drown.... Sour that you will most likely have a heart attack from the drop while receiving NASCAR Whiplash...
30 meters? Silly. It typically launches from 2nd deck, just to give it momentum when it hits the water. Been there, done it. No problem, considering the alternative. Nobody likes it, but this video's description is bull shit.
all you are thinking 14 g will kill a person. that is true if it is endured for a long time, but just for a brief moment they will be fine. still pretty scary though
But why you want to jump from 30 meter?. Infact its an outstanding boat can travel into any kind of stormy weather and i think this boat is best boat to enjoy storm while being inside stormy waves the only think missing is wide screen view and camera's to see from inside LCD at time of seat belts instead of passenger areas there suppose to be bed ( Many newly married couple can enjoy the few days and night inside boat for this little bit changes will be required. However amazing unsinkable shape i mean boat.
And what happens to your intestines? Spine and neck? 20 g's so a 200 pound person would experience 4000 pds of force? Not a life bat but a lull you into sleep coffin!
well even 17g should be ok to tolerate key word is should probably some nice whiplash the following day ... I body can tolerate around 46g and even 100G if its only a fraction of a second ,,
12 Gs huh!? Everybody is going to fart at the same time when they hit the water. All that fart gas will make everybody chunder. The smell will be so bloody awful, that everybody will climb out the hatch and jump off the side.
It would probably be a little scary having to evacuate a sinking ship, on fire, or severely damaged, listing heavily, and having to crawl outside in perhaps a storm to get into the lifeboat only to face a 30 meter fall into the ocean. But if the ship is being evacuated because of an explosion, collision or enemy attack, the lifeboat might land onto floating debris. I wonder if that has been considered.
Been in? Those lifeboats are tuff the trick in sitting when.launched is raise your bum six inches plus this will compensate for drop and save your spine have rung??
All the angles are explained in ideal sea conditions...! The reality in rough seas is totally different than that. With 60 ft. Swells and rocking sideways you'd be lucky if that thing won't crash into the ocean upside down...😣
I have my BOISET and my HUET, which means I had training in one of these boats. It scared the hell out of me. However, hitting the water wasn’t all that bad. What got me was the heat and rocking until we got aboard the crew boat.
They should be mounted on an arm that drops outwards, bringing it away from the hull, and then letting it down on a drag line or braked reel. Should bring the G's down and increase the survivable drop height.

That thing should be called SWEET n' SOUR "WHIPLASH" ... Sweet that you may not drown.... Sour that you will most likely have a heart attack from the drop while receiving NASCAR Whiplash...
Ahhh me so floaty.
Also id be like hey guys let's let the boat sink like 20 more feet than launch...
Enough to part you from your breakfast.
30 meters? Silly. It typically launches from 2nd deck, just to give it momentum when it hits the water. Been there, done it. No problem, considering the alternative. Nobody likes it, but this video's description is bull shit.
i perfer to go in it than jumping over board it safer
Why launch from such a height? It’s not necessary. High waves I understand but the launch is a stunt for the cameras just like this weird woman.
18 to 20 G's is still a problem it is not okay!
all you are thinking 14 g will kill a person. that is true if it is endured for a long time, but just for a brief moment they will be fine. still pretty scary though
aaaaand on this episode of “why am i watching this”
That doesn’t look like a very fun ride. I wouldn’t want to do it, I do want everyone I work with to know I scream like a 4 year old little girl.
Have they done any real world test with fully loaded crew inside?
Nope. But the lifeboat comes with a life time guarantee though! !
At that height, you could put wings on the boat and it could fly to safety.
😂😂 no shit. Fuckin survive a ship sinking to be paralyzed falling in a lifeboat.
Was this video files in 1970...? The quality is poor and the editing sucks...😬
Minute: 1:40. Nobody survives that impact. Maybe young and strong people can survive.
I would prefer a swallow dive from the rear railing....only to land head first in some orange boaty thingy!
Noticed no volunteers for the test Michelle!!...
But why you want to jump from 30 meter?. Infact its an outstanding boat can travel into any kind of stormy weather and i think this boat is best boat to enjoy storm while being inside stormy waves the only think missing is wide screen view and camera's to see from inside LCD at time of seat belts instead of passenger areas there suppose to be bed ( Many newly married couple can enjoy the few days and night inside boat for this little bit changes will be required. However amazing unsinkable shape i mean boat.
Takumi? Is he the lifeboat drift king
And what happens to your intestines? Spine and neck?
20 g's so a 200 pound person would experience 4000 pds of force?
Not a life bat but a lull you into sleep coffin!
it's 14g's not 20
Vic Cruz And it happens in a very short time.
put several pointed spears on it in different angles to break the water..gee simple..
reduce from 14g to 8 g instantly
Maybe if that were true, they would've already had it
You might even spear some fish for sashimi lunch while waiting to be rescued. I hope the lifeboat has plenty of soy sauce and wasabi on board.
You babies are going too far with your copyright crap. Copyright babies!
If the oil rig is on fire, the boat can melt.
well even 17g should be ok to tolerate key word is should probably some nice whiplash the following day ... I body can tolerate around 46g and even 100G if its only a fraction of a second ,,
12 Gs huh!? Everybody is going to fart at the same time when they hit the water. All that fart gas will make everybody chunder. The smell will be so bloody awful, that everybody will climb out the hatch and jump off the side.
100% of the ships capsize meaning that no matter what 50% of the lifeboats will be useless and the whole thing a gamble.
How can you say japan sea......??.. I will let you know it is East Sea..... please do not confuse..
This is how you break your neck and toss your baby hard into the ceiling. 20G's? Damn.
It's too bad this did not exist for the Edmund Fitzgerald or the Ocean Ranger
really? 2019 and a resolution of 240p ? why bother buying a 4K screen !
so that's what Captain Philip used to escape the somalians?
I see people talking about the G's, but I bet there is lots of people willing to pay for the ride.
It would probably be a little scary having to evacuate a sinking ship, on fire, or severely damaged, listing heavily, and having to crawl outside in perhaps a storm to get into the lifeboat only to face a 30 meter fall into the ocean. But if the ship is being evacuated because of an explosion, collision or enemy attack, the lifeboat might land onto floating debris. I wonder if that has been considered.
25 people onboard the lifeboat and 25 heart attacks and sprained necks!
Been in? Those lifeboats are tuff the trick in sitting when.launched is raise your bum six inches plus this will compensate for drop and save your spine have rung??
All the angles are explained in ideal sea conditions...! The reality in rough seas is totally different than that. With 60 ft. Swells and rocking sideways you'd be lucky if that thing won't crash into the ocean upside down...😣
i dont get it. when the boat hits the water the passengers on the back dont feel it till the back of the boat touches the water or what?
Japanese man invents kamikaze life boat... Never would've guessed
Just thinking what if the boat was in showllow water somehow? I know it will probably not happen but emergencies don't happen to often to

I have my BOISET and my HUET, which means I had training in one of these boats. It scared the hell out of me. However, hitting the water wasn’t all that bad. What got me was the heat and rocking until we got aboard the crew boat.
That would be a tough drop but if it happens... I’ll bet the men would be happy to leave the ship! Better than staying and burning or sinking!
They should be mounted on an arm that drops outwards, bringing it away from the hull, and then letting it down on a drag line or braked reel. Should bring the G's down and increase the survivable drop height.
Why not add a parachute to slow the speed...add a kite system the help with sell power too.
