'The boat just hung and then began to slowly sink': The fight to save the submarine | The Flood Ep 4

At its deepest diving depth, HMAS Dechaineux was already fighting for survival. A catastrophic flood had sent seawater pouring into the submarine, leaving 60 sailors trapped beneath the Indian Ocean as the crew desperately tried to force the boat back to the surface. In Episode 3, Commander Peter Scott and his crew recall the longest three minutes of their lives — the silence in the control room, the depth gauge moving the wrong way, and the terrifying realisation that if the submarine kept sinking, there would be no coming back. The Flood is a four-part series, with Episode 4, The Fallout, live now. 🎧 Full Podcast series ► apple.co/theflood Connect With The Australian Online 🖥 https://www.theaustralian.com.au Follow Us: Facebook ► https://www.facebook.com/theaustralian Instagram ► https://bit.ly/39w5T2j Twitter ► https://twitter.com/australian LinkedIn ► https://www.linkedin.com/company/1008560/admin/feed/posts/ 🎧 Podcast ► https://www.theaustralian.com.au/nation/the-front/podcast/7e7d42e8c77b597cf8532d2e0c847e10 🎥 Subscribe To Our YouTube Channel: http://bit.ly/1OT7tw4 #theflood #submarine #collins
