In these videos, you will see something that you won’t see that often….a female astronaut that dives! And also a female safety diver as a bonus!
I watched this new movie with french audio and English subtitles.
They speak French, English, German and Russian in that movie. 4 languages in one movie…that was new to me.
I do understand English, German, and a little french, but unfortunately, the scenes where they speak Russian were only translated in hardcoded french subtitles like in the videos below.
Looking forward to seeing a version in one language without any subtitles 😆

Let’s start with the first underwater scene of the movie!

And here is the video:

Well, her task is obviously to get her male buddy in that capsule in a short time, while he is (playing) unconscious.
Quite a good scene! In her spacesuit, she is very much restricted and can’t move around like a scuba diver. But she gets the job done just in time!
And this was just the first scene….there is another one with some….peril!

Scene 2

And here is the video:
–
Quite a nice peril scene!
Eva Green is a great actress and looks great as an astronaut!
Actually, I’m not sure why she passed out. Was something wrong with the oxygen supply? Was it part of the training? Or was she just overworked and tired?
Of course with all the safety divers, she wasn’t in real danger here.
However an effective training for astronauts to simulate some situations that could happen in space.

This video gave me an idea for a perilous scenario for an underwater fight:
Imagine that there would be only one safety diver (female). That diver wants to drown the astronaut for some reason! They fight underwater!
The diver looks for a way to sabotage the oxygen supply or to cut her suit open….while the astronaut tries to fight back with some training gear.
Another scenario that needs to be filmed!!!

Exclusively on the blog, here is a bonus scene from the movie:
–
Quite a nice scene.
Always nice to see a woman using an oxygen mask (or gas mask)!

This is the movie (by the way…Eva Green presents her “twins” several times during the movie…):

P.S.:
In 4 days I will get the german Blu-ray of Breaking surface!
Looking forward to it BIG time! 🙂
Will post about it next week….

It might surprise you to know that all astronauts have to go underwater in their spacesuits as part of their training tom get them used to weightless conditions.
Actually it does not 😉
A perfect place to simulate the conditions as you said.
But still it sounds rather unusual at first sight.
