I've always been fascinated by submarines, but I would be terrified of being inside one when they are deep in the ocean. Kudos to the brave men and women who do this.
theres a submarine in long beach california thats docked by queen mary that you can tour, althought it might be closed to the public right now due to it needing repairs.
I figure it is sort of like an airplane. You know that you are really far down, but you can’t tell except by an electronic instrument, and you have four walls around you.
My dad and I are both retired submariners and we were lucky enough to tour this boat shortly after its conversion from SSBN to SSGN. I served on a SSBN and my dad served on a diesel boat. We were both very impressed with the Florida. Awesome piece of machinery.
Can I ask you a question then if somehow that sub in the video is blown away will it cause a nuclear explosion? Or they have preventive measures to avoid a nuclear explosion?
I think that most/all nuclear weapons have to be detonated in a very specific way to reach fusion/fission. Blowing one to pieces shouldn't cause a nuclear explosion. In the past, American and Soviet subs and aircraft have suffered catastrophic events (explosions, crashes, sinking) and the nukes didnt blow up.
@@adityakaushik941 it wont cause a nuclear explosion. There is a real chance the reactor spews out radiation on the sea floor as the reaction speeds up without control rods.. but that just makes lots of radiation, it wont go into a thermo nucelar state.. It really depends on the type of damage the sub receives. That said.. that is how older reactors work... newer ones in ships like this probably slow down the reaction once it hits sea water,....(we have no idea the reactor desgign.. definitely be alot of rads... but not a huge nuke like explosion like hiroshima.. etc.. just fissile material reacting with what ever it comes into contact with.. specifically oxygen...
@@adityakaushik941 Yes, for a nuclear explosion you need the Uranium in the reactor to "fuse" like in a nuclear bomb to create a chain reaction... this is done with a precharge of TNT dedicated to slamming 2 uranium atoms together. With a nuclear sub this has begun allready and is controlled in the reactor, once the control rods are removed the reaction speeds up, but it is not runaway like a bomb. essentially the material is fissile and spews out radiation... again depending on the reactor design. Russia has many of these reactors rusting in ports in old subs as you can not turn off a nuclear reactor.
Hello there. I retired as a senior chief sonar tech. I also commissioned the Florida when I was a Chief and later commissioned the Nevada as a Senior Chief. Had fun doing it.
Can't even begin to imagine being stuck inside that type of confined space for months at a time, hundreds of feet under water. Yikes ! Takes a special breed to tolerate that.
Can't believe it, this sub is nearly 20 years into service and still out-tech all others by nearly that much time! And the constant alertness the crews is demonstrating is just admirable! Respect from China!
Wow this was a total look inside the sub different from the previous documentary I saw. It's really amazing. May God guide and protect the whole crew on board.
Back in 1978 I was on the USS Albany CG 10 Gaeta Italy. She was the Flag ship of the 6th Fleet. I knew many submariners and the Mediterranean was the best duty in the Navy as far as I was concerned. Great job David
I was stationed on the Florida for five and a half years back when she was an SSBN. It was really cool to see the spaces I haunted for so long in the video (though they only showed the door to the engine room spaces I spent most of my time in). I still have submarine dreams many nights even though I haven't set foot on her since 1999.
My husband's a nuke and I was lucky enough to be able to tour his last boat. I consider it to be one of the best experiences of my life! Unfortunately, the engine room, where he works, is the one place I could not go in.
I was assigned to the sub tender at Kings Bay when they opened in the late 1970s. These men & women today deserve the utmost respect for what they do to keep all of us safe today. Shalom
Actually since it's been converted from a ballistic missile sub to a guided missile sub, its HAS become a scalpel instead of s sword. Our guided missiles are very very accurate.

@@heller4196 Like I said previously, I'm not discrediting any of that. I just happen to find the deep sea more intriguing nowadays. All the aquatic life and ancient artifacts that still haven't been observed yet is jaw-dropping to me. That being said, I still love me some space.
Life aboard a submarine has clearly become much more complex since I was a submariner during the 1960s. Nevertheless, it is basically the same: be silent, be invisible, and be deadly. I owe much of what I have become to that experience and although folks sometimes thank me for my service I feel it more appropriate to thank the Navy for what it gave me. Having served on one of the last diesel-electric boats from WWII I know how brave those men were. Though they were advanced technology for their time those subs were vulnerable to a myriad of things that threatened disaster at every moment. The crews that manned them were an interlocked human-machine and a brotherhood that defied the sea and worked together to accomplish their mission. Admiral Rickover's first-generation fleet, upon which I also served, and made in defiance of the Navy Brass, was a world-changing concept that made possible the end of the 'Cold War'. I would have to spend months aboard one of these modern Goliaths to really evaluate their worth and from what little I have seen I'm unsure the crew esprit is still the same. What the Navy has made public is insufficient to reach conclusions, but what I do see makes me uneasy. They seem more like aircraft carriers or cruisers in deportment. If so, that is a great loss and would lessen their effectiveness.
I was a Fast Attack Sonar Tech on a 637 stretch. Fast Attack Crews and Officers were tight but on Boomers not so much. The Florida is a Boomer and the crew acts it. Necessary I guess for Boomers where they have failed their Primary Mission of Deterrence if they actually ever have to shoot.
I fully agree. Life on a boat is truly unique and I would not give it up for any reason. I loved the fastboat life and tried the boomer life but it's not the same. I was on 4 fast boats and 1 boomer (not a GN) and the difference is night and day. A lot has changed since retiring 4+ years ago and of my twenty-year career, I miss the five deployments the most. Three patrols were nice (they made a movie about that boat, lol, Denzel Washington running in the compartment) but I'd do two more deployments before I'd ever considered doing another patrol. Just my two cents. As a sidenote, I understand the Navy trying to get word out about subs but it is 'the silent service' for a reason. ABC or ANY other news outlet should leave it be. Don't report on subs, what they are capable of, what they have on board or Seals for that matter. Want to learn about that job or profession? Go be one.
Glenn Holland the Virginia are SSN subs, designed primarily as a naval attack vessel, used to sink enemy warships or launch cruise missiles from built in missile hatches, added for multi mission capability. The Ohio Class, the ship class of this sub, is an SSGN, whose primary mission is to launch missiles at enemy targets. Other members of the Ohio Class are SSBNs, and those are the bad boys with the nukes.their mission is as part of the us nuclear triad, consisting of sub launched weapons, bomber launched weapons, and ground based weapons.
@Harris Witherden You are an idiot! The Military is NOT a place for social experimentation. Subs are war machines. Having women aboard detracts from its mission. And that mission it to kill the enemy and break his things. USS Narwhal (SSN-671), 7/83-1/88
Meanwhile the Russian submarine: “Oi cyka, I heard BBC David in those American sub!” “Don’t worry Sergey, we will invite RT to our submarine next week.”
Currently halfway through my training at NNPTC, pretty cool to think that I’ll eventually be in one of those reactor rooms turning hot rock into propulsion
Looking at the SEALs compartment in the sub and the torpedo room is the most coolest thing I ever saw in an underwater vehicle. Those MK48 ADCAP torps looks scary
I was once on an oil tanker in the Bay of Biscay when a submarine surfaced and ran along on top for a while! Scary as it gets! Don't know who it belonged to or what it was doing!
Thank you my Subsurface shipmates! Dolphins are definitely "earned!" I could never serve as you all do in the deep. Too close to Davy Jones locker for me. God bless the Silent Service and all who man our Subsurface Fleet! AMEN. US Navy!
Amazing how humans are capable of so so much. So thankful for all of these ppl and all of our army/ servicemen. Idk how human beings have the capacity to design and build something like this and so much more. It’s beyond comprehension. May God bless them.
Blue Marshall “I’m sorry sir, I’m trying to keep us undetected. But I’m afraid you’re dummy thicc and the clap of your ass cheeks is being picked up on the Russian sonars!
My dad worked on one of these back during the cold war! It makes me mad though... That they didn't let us put it on his tomb stone. Instead it was Vietnam war, and while he was serving, he didn't deploy. He never told us hardly anything. Kinda sucks, but they really drilled it into them how much they'd pay if they said anything.
There's a lot of pressure squeezing every square inch of the sub when submerged, more so the deeper you go. Windows would only introduce a weak point that could fail from that pressure. It's meant for battle, not taking nice pictures of the fish.
@@craftpaint1644 I often used to wonder why Russian subs had windows in the sail while US subs didn't, then I realised that that little area with the windows isn't pressurised, the whole area floods when submerged - it's just a little indoor bridge (called a fairweather bridge) that the watch team can come down into if weather on the surface is heavy. It makes sense when 90% of Russia's coastline is an arctic hellish nightmare.
My mum told me as a young women she used to go on submarines in dock (Plymouth Dock, Devon UK) from foreign officer friendlies (clearly security was extremely relaxed then), this was the way she got stockings as gifts from the sailors, which was impossible to get post war for years lol
I served aboard 2 fast attack submarines, 1 FBM submarine, 2 aircraft carriers, an instructor at 2 NPTU sites and as an instructer at Advanced Engiineering School NSS New London for over 20 years as a nuclear trained MMC(SS) USN Ret.

don't worry china already took this technology and went massive production on their own.
stfu u coulda put a curse on it
Robert 0077 Westerners have more sense than Easterners in America.
@@akathetruthteller yeah that's why they had to surface their submarine in front of fisherman fearing their nets.
Florida man is here to save the day !! Whit nukes.
Life aboard a submarine has clearly become much more complex since I was a submariner during the 1960s. Nevertheless, it is basically the same: be silent, be invisible, and be deadly. I owe much of what I have become to that experience and although folks sometimes thank me for my service I feel it more appropriate to thank the Navy for what it gave me. Having served on one of the last diesel-electric boats from WWII I know how brave those men were. Though they were advanced technology for their time those subs were vulnerable to a myriad of things that threatened disaster at every moment. The crews that manned them were an interlocked human-machine and a brotherhood that defied the sea and worked together to accomplish their mission. Admiral Rickover's first-generation fleet, upon which I also served, and made in defiance of the Navy Brass, was a world-changing concept that made possible the end of the 'Cold War'. I would have to spend months aboard one of these modern Goliaths to really evaluate their worth and from what little I have seen I'm unsure the crew esprit is still the same. What the Navy has made public is insufficient to reach conclusions, but what I do see makes me uneasy. They seem more like aircraft carriers or cruisers in deportment. If so, that is a great loss and would lessen their effectiveness.
Dada Fan Much RESPECT ‼️
I was a Fast Attack Sonar Tech on a 637 stretch. Fast Attack Crews and Officers were tight but on Boomers not so much. The Florida is a Boomer and the crew acts it. Necessary I guess for Boomers where they have failed their Primary Mission of Deterrence if they actually ever have to shoot.
Ok boomer
I fully agree. Life on a boat is truly unique and I would not give it up for any reason. I loved the fastboat life and tried the boomer life but it's not the same. I was on 4 fast boats and 1 boomer (not a GN) and the difference is night and day. A lot has changed since retiring 4+ years ago and of my twenty-year career, I miss the five deployments the most. Three patrols were nice (they made a movie about that boat, lol, Denzel Washington running in the compartment) but I'd do two more deployments before I'd ever considered doing another patrol. Just my two cents.
As a sidenote, I understand the Navy trying to get word out about subs but it is 'the silent service' for a reason. ABC or ANY other news outlet should leave it be. Don't report on subs, what they are capable of, what they have on board or Seals for that matter. Want to learn about that job or profession? Go be one.
Thanks, guys
What keeps these guys from running down the aisles hollering 'let me out". I could never be a submariner but I do admire them with the utmost respect.
A lot of mental screening
The amount of work put into building something so complex and huge is mind boggling
I always take a peek when THE NAVY is WILLING to show off their submarines...AWESOME!!!
factinator33 they usually only show off when something newer and better is already taking the place of tech they showing off...USS VIRGINIA class
Glenn Holland the Virginia are SSN subs, designed primarily as a naval attack vessel, used to sink enemy warships or launch cruise missiles from built in missile hatches, added for multi mission capability. The Ohio Class, the ship class of this sub, is an SSGN, whose primary mission is to launch missiles at enemy targets. Other members of the Ohio Class are SSBNs, and those are the bad boys with the nukes.their mission is as part of the us nuclear triad, consisting of sub launched weapons, bomber launched weapons, and ground based weapons.
@@spikethompson2000 thanks bro
Never been so afraid of a black hatch until this man spoke about one 😬😬
used to be a nuclear missile under the hatch
Are you channeling "Key & Peele - Black Ice"? LOL ;)
3:02 Didn't know Jeff Bezos spends his free time in a submarine
Thought that too
No hes saitama
"Hey Ryan - some things in here don't react well to bullets." Seriously. Thanks to all who serve to keep us safe!
I never thought they would let women on subs with men!
Such tight spaces everyone shares everything, crazy!
@Harris Witherden You are an idiot! The Military is NOT a place for social experimentation. Subs are war machines. Having women aboard detracts from its mission. And that mission it to kill the enemy and break his things.
USS Narwhal (SSN-671), 7/83-1/88
United States sailors are professionals.
The number of tampons though 🥴
Tight spaces being filled, alright.
@@johnleeson6946 bruh
Incredible. God bless America💪🏽
Thank you for service USS Florida.
Great report ABC.
Title of the Vid:A rare look at USS nuclear powered submarine
Iran:HOLD UP
Tired of youtube's double ads
Me too
Gotta make that paper 🤑🤑🤑
God Bless that crew and all who serve 🙏🏽🙏🏽
GO NAVY!! On Veterans I'm so proud of our military!! Air Force vet here!
Meanwhile the Russian submarine:
“Oi cyka, I heard BBC David in those American sub!”
“Don’t worry Sergey, we will invite RT to our submarine next week.”
Fr🤣
Nobody:
US Military: Wanna see a nuclear powered sub?
2:39 Michael Jackson would be proud!
LOL!!!!
Is it true he did his using the nail in the floor for the narrow cut out at the bottom of his shoes method?
*HeeHeee*
LOL 😂😂
@@MisfitRecords lol
@@MisfitRecords i like your name
We love you boys! Proud of you all, boys and girls, in the Navy.
I give these guy the up most respect .A lot of heart because I wouldn’t do this type of job. Blessings troops.
Deepest respect for the man and women working on that sofisticated submarine.
Currently halfway through my training at NNPTC, pretty cool to think that I’ll eventually be in one of those reactor rooms turning hot rock into propulsion
And you'll have to learn not to talk about it.
Loose lips sink ships.
I was a nuke in the 70s. (ELT). Here’s a tip to you and your buddies. Wear ear protection, we didn’t have any back in the day.
Thanks for your work. Personal safety and economy are key.
"There's not a day when we are not watching the every single day"
I know Icould have Never Do what these young Men and Women do, much Respect and Prayers for them One and All
Truly incredible technology
You're in a dangerous part of the world right now... we're just cursing past Florida right now lol
Wow....THIS is awesome...
It's an awesome day to see some old familiar faces on that sub... TMC riley and Capt wild bill Houston... proudly served on the USS HAMPTON 767
Allan Sabillon What was it like living on a sub? How long were you out at sea?
Thank you for serving. Best Navy on earth.
These people are built different
Looking at the SEALs compartment in the sub and the torpedo room is the most coolest thing I ever saw in an underwater vehicle. Those MK48 ADCAP torps looks scary
That sure was a YOUNG looking Captain of the sub...…… makes me feel old.
They usually only 40-50
They retire @ about 45
Me: open the window because it's hot
The others in the submarine: 👁️👄👁️
I miss serving on boats. Stay safe shipmates.
I was once on an oil tanker in the Bay of Biscay when a submarine surfaced and ran along on top for a while! Scary as it gets! Don't know who it belonged to or what it was doing!
Likely Spain or France if it was comfortable on the surface, subs don't tend to surface outside of their local neighbourhood as it's seen as rude.
Impressive technology and highly skilled navy protect freedom 24/7
Thank you my Subsurface shipmates! Dolphins are definitely "earned!" I could never serve as you all do in the deep. Too close to Davy Jones locker for me. God bless the Silent Service and all who man our Subsurface Fleet! AMEN. US Navy!
This is really well made and informative, great job guys
Thanks for keeping peace of the world
God Bless you Sub-mariners..! Land of the Free-Home of the Brave..!
This i would have gotten on, That Titan thing, no way!
Amazing how humans are capable of so so much. So thankful for all of these ppl and all of our army/ servicemen. Idk how human beings have the capacity to design and build something like this and so much more. It’s beyond comprehension. May God bless them.
Meanwhile on Russian Sub
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sean Haggard or a German U-Boat.
@Dennis Galindez depending on your definition of "a long time ago." The Kursk sank about twenty years ago, thanks to a faulty torpedo.
Meanwhile on American Submarines

What if one of the crew farted?
Then enemy antisub hear them.
Stop watching down periscope.
HA HA Im laughing so hard now!!
This isn’t too far from the truth
Blue Marshall “I’m sorry sir, I’m trying to keep us undetected. But I’m afraid you’re dummy thicc and the clap of your ass cheeks is being picked up on the Russian sonars!
@@jerryinsc silent but deadly
My dad worked on one of these back during the cold war!
It makes me mad though... That they didn't let us put it on his tomb stone. Instead it was Vietnam war, and while he was serving, he didn't deploy.
He never told us hardly anything. Kinda sucks, but they really drilled it into them how much they'd pay if they said anything.
I was on the 628 boat and this monster tied up just down from us. We were in awe of the size.
Some people sleep wouth pistols next to their bed, and then there’s these men who sleep next to Tomahawk missies 😂🤣🤣🤣
I was on an SSBN back in the '70s. Our captain slept with a pistol under his pillow...
I’ve always wondered how come theres no windshield in the Submarine
There's a lot of pressure squeezing every square inch of the sub when submerged, more so the deeper you go. Windows would only introduce a weak point that could fail from that pressure. It's meant for battle, not taking nice pictures of the fish.
There's at least seven watertight windows on a missile submarine. The compartment doors and the two washing machines 👩🔧🇺🇲🇷🇺
@@craftpaint1644 I often used to wonder why Russian subs had windows in the sail while US subs didn't, then I realised that that little area with the windows isn't pressurised, the whole area floods when submerged - it's just a little indoor bridge (called a fairweather bridge) that the watch team can come down into if weather on the surface is heavy. It makes sense when 90% of Russia's coastline is an arctic hellish nightmare.
My mum told me as a young women she used to go on submarines in dock (Plymouth Dock, Devon UK) from foreign officer friendlies (clearly security was extremely relaxed then), this was the way she got stockings as gifts from the sailors, which was impossible to get post war for years lol
These all crew look like in 20s
Average age onboard a submarine is 24. So yeah.
Fantastic piece of engineering! FAITH in USA! 🇺🇸
I served aboard 2 fast attack submarines, 1 FBM submarine, 2 aircraft carriers, an instructor at 2 NPTU sites and as an instructer at Advanced Engiineering School NSS New London for over 20 years as a nuclear trained MMC(SS) USN Ret.
Thank you for your service.🇺🇸 Sounds like you have been through a lot. Rewarding though, right?👍 I hope for world peace, wisdom and for Love to conquer all,someday.
