:25:00
Y ou were on the Indianapolis?
:25:02
What happened?
:25:05
Japanese submarine slammed
two torpedoes into her side, Chief.
:25:10
I was comir back
from the island of Tinian to Leyte...
:25:14
...just delivered the bomb,
the Hiroshima bomb.
:25:20
1,100 men went into the water.
:25:23
Vessel went down in 12 minutes.
:25:27
Didrt see the first shark
for about half an hour.
:25:30
Tiger, 13-footer.
:25:32
Know how you know that
when you're in the water?
:25:35
Y ou tell by lookir
from the dorsal to the tail.
:25:39
Well, we didn't know.
:25:42
Because our bomb mission
had been so secret...
:25:45
...no distress signal had been sent.
:25:54
They didn't even list us overdue
for a week.
:25:58
Very first light, sharks come cruisir...
:26:02
...so we formed ourselves
into tight groups.
:26:07
Kinda like old squares in a battle
like you see on a calendar...
:26:10
...like the Battle of Waterloo.
:26:12
The idea was,
the shark comes to the nearest man...
:26:14
...and he starts poundir
hollerir and screamir.
:26:17
Sometimes the shark would go away...
:26:21
...but sometimes he wouldn't go away.
:26:23
Sometimes that shark,
he looks right into you...
:26:26
...right into your eyes.
:26:28
Y ou know, a thing about a shark, he's got...
:26:31
...lifeless eyes.
:26:33
Black eyes, like a doll's eyes.
:26:37
When he comes at you,
he doesn't seem to be livir...
:26:40
...until he bites you.
:26:42
Those little black eyes
roll over white and then...
:26:47
...then you hear
that terrible high-pitched screamir.
:26:50
The ocean turns red...
:26:52
...in spite of the poundir and the hollerir,
they all come in.
:26:58
They rip you to pieces.
