Miracle at Sea: Sailor Survives After Spending 2 Days Inside Sunken ShipJust to elaborate, this wasnt sunk like the Oklahoma was sunk; this thing was sunk AT 30 METRES DEPTH
Aside from the luck of surviving and being rescued, this is probably every sailor's nightmare.

I remember reading something like this in a Clive Cussler novel (might have been one of the Oregon ones) not long ago and thinking "yea right like that could happen...."

Sounds like the fellow was a very cool customer, too.... keeping a level head ion his horrendous situation is likely one of the reasons he survived.

Whoahhhh! Yes, very lucky!
I'm happy for him.
Two days of decompressing sounds like a crashing bore and uncomfortable too, but I got to admit, if it was me, I'd be downright cheerful about it!

It looks like a higher power wasn't quite done with this guy yet.
