Under Pressure: Living Life and Avoiding Death on a Nuclear Submarine By: Richard Humphreys [Audiobook]

Author: Richard Humphreys
Narrated by: Richard Humphreys

This is the world of the submariner. This is life under pressure.

As a restless and adventurous 18-year-old, Richard Humphreys joined the Royal Navy submarine service. For five years during the Cold War, he served on the nuclear sub HMS Resolution. Nothing could have prepared him for life beneath the waves. He existed in a world without natural light, surrounded by 140 other men, all eating the same food, breathing the same air, smelling the same putrid smells and surviving together in some of the most forbidding conditions imaginable. 

Based on Humphreys’ firsthand experience, Under Pressure is the candid, visceral and incredibly entertaining account of what it’s like to live, work, sleep and eat – and stay sane – in one of the most extreme man-made environments on the planet.

Book Description
================
A candid, visceral, and incredibly entertaining account of what its 
like to live in one of the most extreme man-made environments in the 
world.
Imagine a world without natural light, where you can barely stand up 
straight for fear of knocking your head, where you have no idea of where 
in the world you are or what time of day it is, where you sleep in a 
coffin-sized bunk and sometimes eat a full roast for breakfast.
Now imagine sharing that world with 140 other sweaty bodies, crammed 
into a 430ft x 33ft steel tube, 300ft underwater, for up to 90 days 
at a time, with no possibility of escape. And to top it off, a sizeable 
chunk of your living space is taken up by the most formidably destructive 
nuclear weapons history has ever known. This is the world of the submariner. 
This is life under pressure.
As a restless and adventurous 18-year-old, Richard Humphreys joined 
the submarine service in 1985 and went on to serve aboard the nuclear 
deterrent for five years at the end of the Cold War. Nothing could have 
prepared him for life beneath the waves. Aside from the claustrophobia 
and disorientation, there were the prolonged periods of boredom, the 
constant dread of discovery by the Soviets, and the smorgasbord of rank 
odours that only a group of poorly-washed and flatulent submariners 
can unleash.
But even in this most pressurised of environments, the consolations 
were unique: where else could you sit peacefully for hours listening 
to whale song, or
Based on first-hand experience, Under Pressure is the candid, visceral 
and incredibly entertaining account of what its like to live, work, 
sleep, eat  and stay sane  in one of the most extreme man-made environments 
on the planet.
