I just finished watching Sea Hunt

[DCBC]

I found this explanation: Submarine escape and rescue: a brief history

I did my initial escape training with the RN at SETT in Gosport in the 70's and later with the USN at Groton. At the time, the major differences were that the RN did 'free ascent' training at 9 and 18 Meters as well as pressurized escape at 18 Meters. The USN only used the Steinke Hood in training (up to 100 FSW).

Season 1 - Episode 11 - Killer Whale
worse episode ever...

And one which Lloyd Bridges despised and regretted. Afterwards, there was a greater emphasis on understanding and, for its day, conservation.

Most all of the episodes are available on youtube. I watch them while falling asleep sometimes. Many of the shows that involve criminals follow the same cheesey plots as other shows of the sixties. Some of the shows feature the sexism that was prevalent at the time. Most are hilarious from a divers point of view. Mike will teach you all you need to know about narcosis, cave diving, out of air emergencies, handling radioactive waste, and charming the ladies. Classic TV.
