Science of Survival: Survival at sea

If you have to abandon your ship, there are the tips you should know to survive in a lifeboat

Lady, Lady!

The last thing you’re gonna wanna do is leave your boat but if you’re definitely sinking or on fire, make sure you’ve got your life raft handy. Ideally act is get directly into the life raft from the sinking vessel. Today I don’t have that option, and I’m gonna have to swim for it. The last thing I do before I jump ship is to inflate my life preserver.

Make sure you always control your line and your clear life raft, so you don’t lose the life raft itself. It'll make a little easier to climb in, well, if I deflate my life preserver.

You look around inside your life raft more than likely you’ll find a life ring. Throw it out to fellow survivors if there are any. Or if someone is in danger, the same idea, put it on your arm, jump out, swim out and grab them and get them safely back to the life raft, too.

It may seem colder at first because of the wind. But being inside your life raft, it’s actually much warmer, much safer and better than being in the water. All in all, your life raft is an amazing piece of equipment. You hold up much better than this storm, violent seas in your body will and protect you against sea element. So don’t lose it. But if this is all you have well then it’s much better than being in the water.

But if your dinghy is upside down, you’re going to need to put it over. Not easy if you don’t know how.

Lift my foot into the life line on the bottom of the life raft now, grab the rope, stand up in the strip keep your feet and pull it. Once you’re on top, grab the line, go to a good drip wanna make sure the wind is into your face.

You've got to use the wind to help flip it or you haven’t got a chance. For this, on your feet, stand as far on this edge as you can, lean over and pull. Make sure you have no sharp objects on or around your chest. You need to, you can flash some water on and help slipping a little easier. Point your body out on the surface, kicking all your way into the raft.

Stay as warm as possible is now crucial. If your body gets too cold, the blood supply to your arms and legs will slow down, and your heart will have to beat quicker to keep you warm. If your body temperature drops too low, your heart will eventually stop beating.

Wanna stay out of the wind to crawl into the back corner? Step down, crawl up into the fetal position, and just try to stay warm from now.

Grab anything that flows by.

Seaweed is an excellent natural resource, make a bed out of it basically, this is gonna insulate you from the cold sea below, which is snapping the energy out of you. Right now, you need all the energy you can get. Keep yourself warm like this, if you’ve got enough of it, you can also pull it over your top. This can help insulate you from all the wind, cold rain. And now try to get cozy. Lay down, stay warm and relax.

If you have a few survivors in the dinghy with you, you need to set up a watch system. So that you can get some sleep. Someone else can watch for the rest of you. When you’re firing a flare, it’s critical to remember not to fire it in or over your life raft.

Flares drop red-hot debris that could burn to the raft or you. In daylight, even without a flare, you can attract attention if you have anything with a shiny surface.

Doesn’t require batteries, could be seen through over a hundred miles you can signal rescue in any direction. Anything that shining has potential. Make a V with my fingers, keep the ship or the plane in the bottom of the V, just move that flash, up and down in my fingers, just like this.

Some light twigs last in the middle a web of fishing line to support a piece of light foil and you’ve made your own signaling device. Even if no one sees it, it could help you imagine that you’re going to survive. Because doing anything is better than sitting around, waiting to die.

如果必须弃船，需要记住以下几点才能逃生。

除非在迫不得已的情况下，否则你肯定不想弃船，但是如果船正在下沉，或者船只着火，确保救生筏就在手边。最理想的举动就是直接从正在下沉的船只直接跳上救生筏。但是今天我不能这样，必须游过去。在我跳船之前做的最后一件事是给救生设备充气。

确保控制好线和救生筏，这样你就不会丢失。如果我将救生设备的气放掉，会更容易爬到救生筏上。

在救生筏内四处查看一下，很可能会发现救生圈。如果水中有落难的同伴，将救生圈丢给他。如果有人正处于危险中，同样，伸出援助之手，跳入水中，游过去，抓住他们，将他们安全地带回救生筏。

起初可能会感觉到冷。但是待在救生筏内实际上要比在海里更暖和，更安全，感觉更好。总的来说，你的救生筏是一个非常不可思议的设备。在暴风雨中，在狂风肆虐的大海里，你会感觉到更好，救生筏还可以保护你免受海中危险因素的影响。所以千万不要丢掉救生筏。但是，如果这是你的全部，这比待在海水中的感觉更好。

但是如果你的救生筏是底朝天天道的，你需要先把它翻过来。如果你不知道技巧的话并不是一件容易的事。

将脚放入救生筏底部的就绳索内，抓住绳子，拉着绳子在条形地带站起来。站到顶部之后，抓住绳子，确保风是迎面吹来的。

你必须借助风力来将救生筏翻转，否则你根本不可能将它翻过来。为了做到这一点，脚要站在边缘上，站的越远越好，侧过身，使劲拉。确保胸口附近没有任何尖锐的东西。你需要，可以洒些水，这样可能更容易一点。将身体移出来，尽全力进入救生筏。

现在保暖很关键。如果太冷，向四肢的血液供应将会减慢，心脏跳动必须加快来保暖。如果体温过低，心脏最终会停止跳动。

想爬进后边的角落去避风？身体蜷缩，爬进那个救命的位置，从现在开始保暖。

抓住任何漂浮过的东西。

海草是非常好的天然资源，先用水草做一张床，这可以让你跟冰冷的海水隔离开，可以保存身体能量。现在，你需要能得到的所有能量。像这样保证身体温暖，如果已经足够，也可以铺一些在身体上，这样可以遮风挡雨。现在，找一个舒适的姿势，躺下来，保持温暖和放松。

如果在救生筏上还有其他逃生者，你需要建立一个观察体系，这样你们可以轮流睡觉，其他人可以帮助监护你们。如果要点燃火焰信号，一定不要在救生筏上或者周围点火。

火焰会落下滚烫的火星，可能会烧到你或者救生筏。白天，即使不用火焰也可以吸引别人注意。

不需要电池，在任何方向，100多英里之内都可以看到搜救人员。任何闪光的东西都可以。用手指作出V的形状，一直上下移动手指，就像这样。

鱼网上有些东西会闪光，有时也可以自己制作信号设备。但是即使没人看到你，你也可以幻想，你一定能够逃生。因为无论做什么都比坐着等死好。
