![]() One chimp that was exposed for three minutes, however, showed lasting behavioral changes. In a pair of papers from NASA in 19, researchers found that chimpanzees could survive up to 3.5 minutes in near-vacuum conditions with no apparent cognitive defects, as measured by complex tasks months later. > Chimpanzees can withstand even longer exposures. In outer space, you pass out in about 15 seconds from lack of O2 to the brain, then your heart stops and eventually you freeze. The sub likely imploded in an instant, without little prior warning (noises) if the material behaves in the way I suspect it does. I personally think that the violent process would kill them instantly - as in milliseconds.and then when all air has escaped the body, water would fill that space, until the pressure has reached an equilibrium.ĮDIT: I personally don't think they suffered. With a severely collapsed upper torse, which would happen in an instant, I think your heart and major arteries would also become destroyed in an instant.Īll that space would instantly get filled up with water. Your ear eardrums would also rapture in an instant. Your lungs would collapse in an instant, and your chest cavity would collapse on itself, until all air has escaped, and then replaced by water. Probably enough to kill them, purely from that - but let's say they don't die instantly from the crushing influx / wave of water:Īir / gasses in the body would compress significantly, if not allowed to exit the body. If the sub explode, then that would be a very violent reaction. The crew got crushed to death in an instant. If the sub just collapsed / imploded into itself, well - that's that. The sub (hull) is made of a carbon fiber and titanium mix - and I'm not sure how that would react, if it buckles / collapses like regular metal, or if it simply shatters into millions of pieces like glass. And now imagine how many square inches the surface area of a human is - especially your upper torso where your lungs are located. That means 6000 pounds pr square inch - that's almost a Ford F150 truck pr square inch, everywhere. ![]() At that depth, the pressure is quite intense - around 6000 psi. ![]()
