Submarine escape lungThe Momsen lung was a primitive underwater breathing apparatus used in World War II by American submariners as emergency escape gear. Submariners would train in a 100-foot (30-meter) deep diving tank using this apparatus. Additional recommended knowledgeThe device was clumsy to use, and the British Navy instead adopted the practice of blow and go, an apparatus-free ascent technique in which the sailor would exhale during ascent in order to keep air from expanding in the lungs, which would cause them to rupture.
