Not something one would want to witness, I doubt its likely to happen, or ever happen though. Even if the pressure hull was intact when it sank it wouldnt take too long for leaks to appear. Not to mention seals/valves would go before anythign else. Didnt Uboats always leak, valves/seals etc... it was a matter of pumps being able to keep up with the seepage.

However a modern sub would be a different story...
