National Geographic's compulsively watchable Lost Subs: Disaster at Sea presents a gripping look at real-life submarine disasters. Four different undersea disasters are examined, from the first tiny problem to the final, tense rescue efforts. A blend of computer animation, contemporary news footage, and stock footage keeps the action moving and gives the viewer an effortless sense of the mechanics involved. In addition to the real-life drama, Lost Subs has a true geek's appreciation for the incredible technology of a sub--at one point a sailor shows that the sonar is sensitive enough to pick up the sound of shrimp feeding. The events covered are the stuff of action movies--the events of the K-19 disaster were made into a Harrison Ford thriller of the same name--but Lost Subs never loses sight of the fact that there are real people involved. Some of the most wrenching moments follow the families of the crew of the Kursk screaming for action and information as rescue efforts stall. Lost Subs is beautifully produced, sensitively handled, and impossible to stop watching once you've started. --Ali Davis

4 out of 5 stars "Lost Sub''Series,National Geographic. Which one is better berween Human Right or Patriotism ?.!!!!!!!.   May 26, 2009
Moon Eui Sik (Seoul, South Korea)


"Lost Sub"Series from National Geographic.
Which one is better between Human Right
or Patriotism? !!!!!


"Saving crews, As soon As possible" is vital benefit compare with
"Seeking,by their own techniques first,but in failure,then seeking
other's help without benefit of Patriotism !
1) USS Squalus(SS-192): on23,May,1939, a Diesel-Electric oriented Submarine
sunked to depth of 243feet(74m). Cause: Flood of Aft.Torpedo Room Compartment
due to damage of Engine Valve. with in 39 hours of vigorous effort,All of
33 Crews were saved.
2) USS Thresher : 10,Apr,1963,On Post-overhauled.trial,This Neuclear-engined Sub.,
go into deep dive test accompanied with Submarine Rescue Ship.
during test,By the Under Water Telephoe Communication,Repoting with garbled
noise,"Minor Difficulties"-inspite of "Emergency Blow"- No more communication.!
Emergency localization,destroyed, separaed imprtant parts of Submarine was found
under depth of 2,600m,at Bottom of the sea. after possible all death of 129 officers,
crews,and military and civilian technicians.Few days later USN officially disclosed
with citatios(QUOTED from Wikidemia Encyclopedia)
3) Soviet nuclear Submarine K-141. "Kursk": 12,Aug,2005, During Navy combined exercise,
Nucllear enginned OscarII class Submarine sunk at Barents Sea.
Cause of explosion was from explosion of Torpedoes in Torpedo Compartment
.-->Fire--> LAQCK OF OXYGEN-->Asphyxia--->Death.
**Soviet Government try to Rescue with 2 Soviet Rescue Vessel in vain(Already
spent 2 days in vain). 2 days later, From suggestion of help by USA,British
and Norway, finally Rssian governmet asked to Dutch companies Manoet and
Smit International. Among 118,all crews died( but there ,23 Crews, in Compartment 9
Showed evidence of longer SURVIVALS !--It Made lots of claiming Soviet Government's
Human Right !

Being a Navy veteran ( I didn't have my Dolphins), I am keen on Naval disasters, and I remembered the incidents related to this video. Like all National Geographic productions, it is top-notch. I wish it were even a bit longer, as this held my interest from credit to credit. I can watch this video more than once, and enjoy it, and learn from it. I heartily recommend this film for historians, those who love the sea, and those who see the drama and human interest involved with such happenings.

This film follows in the tradition of the other shipwreck films that NG has produced. Information about the subs, films of the wrecks when possible, interviews with family members, are all interwoven into a good story. My only complaint is that they only picked a couple of subs and could have done a lot more.

Captions for "Lost Subs" were, at least, attempted, unlike "Pearl Harbor," but they weren't very good. Many of the captions were cut off, much like typing off the edge of a page, which ruined much of the legibility. Otherwise, it was a good production with plenty of extra stuff.
