What's the spinny thing? Radar? Sonar? I know nothing.

That boat is historically safer there...
MikeArclight
@op That's a good place for it, you're bound to see any sneaky mountains from up there
Oper8rActual
No. No no no. Holy shit no. Just seeing that thing glide under the water unnerves me. Something about large manmade objects underwater...
linuxlizard
Aren't those things supposed to be *under* the water? I'm not an expert, but they might be doing it wrong.
BleeppBloopp
This is so satisfyingly beautiful. Thanks for sharing, @OP
chicksandboozeandgunsandfiretrucks
I'd be scared that they'd dive when I was up there
valen00
With that radome going right next to you did your balls get warm filming this?
impossibleodds
Not the San Francisco, nor the bridge, that I was expecting.

ExTechOp
You're getting a fair amount of reactive near field radiation from that radar, you know. It'll keep you warm.

I am rather surprised @op is above the radar.
ajpillz
That is displacing a fuck ton of water... wow
cogs
She's 6,145 tons full, so we now have a basis for comparison. The Nimitz is 16.27 fucktons. Earth? 9.72 * 10^17 fucktons.
barnwolf
Yep, and it can do that for 30 years before needing to refuel.

JimStarluck
It's there, but it's using a magneto-hydrodynamic drive, or "caterpillar" drive, so it's very, very quiet.
DarkUranium
If it's very very quiet, does it mean it's hunting wabbits?

In soviet Russia, points downvote you.

Somebody find buckman and fire him out of a torpedo tube!
barnwolf
I'm thinking, dang that thing is moving, must be burning hella fuel. Then I remember they are nuclear and can do this for 30 years...
Conz
It's going quite fast too.
KnifeKnut
To be fair, they are using up the U-235 at an accelerated rate when traveling at high speed.
uberlube
Yup. Helped build that. Glad to see it floats lol.
6ft1DickC
Well, most of the time it doesn't float

thought that was the bulbous bow of a huge ship underwater at first :D
DrForester
Helped build it? Or helped rebuild it after that drunk pleasure cruise near Guam?
K0alaFRESH
rebuild, here. What a mess that was!
WestPhillyHomeboyConsultant
Explain?
JimStarluck
Some dumbass apparently drove her into an underwater mountain in '05, according to Wikipedia. Smashed up the bow something awful.
TheMajesticHarpyEagle
Well you built it wrong then, subs are supposed to sink.
ClaustrophobicOxtopus
Actually buoyancy is a pretty important part of a submarine

They're using sonar as if they're looking for something, but nobody's listening.
PascalCasedUserName
At this rate they could go right over my daughter's stereo and not hear it.

I spent an hour watches sub documentaries because of you and your link
RadmanTheWise
I used to sit at the aft station and just watch the ship's wake. It was mesmerising.
circlebreaker
Did you get to see any happy dolphins? I hear that they love surfing wakes.
RadmanTheWise
Yeah I have a video of dolphins effortlessly goin faster than the ship. One day I will learn to gif and upload it.

CloakerJosh
There are two types of people.
Theothercword
Could be the vastness of the ocean and how something that size can hide in it easily. Might also be the thought of being that far from land.
BendyDicksCumOnMyBaps
Maybe because they're on top and usually you see this deep in the ocean, imagine being on top of one while it went under. Scary.

I thought the top part was called the Sail?
balsamicninja
Sometimes called the fin. Depends on the class
FarginNoob
The structural portion is called the sail. The bridge is the part that is manned while surfaced.

I'm boots, should this have even been filmed let alone posted? Brother check with a chief. 4chan could find you lols
dazedNconfuzed
First thing I thought. Sailors have been sacked for just photographing their bunks.
Vaanhalen
Just claim to be a politician, they do worse and get away with murder
Rubinoid
As a PO1 with a bit in, this isn't bad...but always good to have double checked. Could also have gotten go ahead from an MC or PAO
Rubinoid
Nothing is actually given away about location or whatnot
DarkUranium
Actually, we know it's not on land now!
MikeMcAwesome91
Oh shit now ISIS knows there's a submarine in one of the 70% of the water on earth
campariIsNotOnlyADrink
Maybe they now go and send in some suicide salmon?
Theg00dshepard
Lols stay alert stay alive there's at least 5 interesting data points in the gif & a lil digging I can link username 2 sailor then real fun
Corrodias
For example, they now know that the US Navy employs black men. They had no way of knowing before today.
campariIsNotOnlyADrink
I knew it since "Men of Honor" ;)

How did 4chan find labuff TWICE ? Weaponized autism is a hoot, but real.
