National Geographic Seconds From Disaster Kursk Russias Nuclear Sub Disaster

No one can say for sure whether any could have been saved, but at least 23 of the 118 men who died aboard the Russian nuclear submarine Kursk in August 2000 were alive when it hit the seafloor. They spent hours hoping for rescue, even reportedly tapping out SOS messages on the sub?s hull. 
A scribbled note found on one of the recovered bodies established 23 men were alive, though just about everything else about the catastrophe remains fuzzy. 

It is possible that even the most advanced rescue efforts would not have been successful, but victims? families and others have criticized the Russian government for not immediately asking for help from other countries with rescue efforts.
