On February 9, 2001, the nuclear submarine USS Greeneville performed a spectacular emergency surfacing maneuver off the coast of Hawaii to impress a group of civilian VIPs. But the crew had failed to detect a Japanese fishing training ship, the Ehime Maru, positioned directly above them. The collision sliced the fishing vessel open, sinking it in minutes and killing nine people, including four high school students.
In this documentary, we reconstruct the chain of errors that led to the disaster. We explore the failure of the sonar display, the rushed periscope search, and the crowded control room that blinded the captain. We detail the harrowing sinking, the diplomatic firestorm, and the unprecedented salvage operation to raise the ship and recover the bodies.
Join us as we analyze how a culture of performance over safety turned a routine demonstration into a deadly tragedy.
