Apparently it's almost instant death. I think it was an episode of The Sea Hunters, but maybe not....my memory is bad. Anyway the guy said that one second they'd be trying to save the boat and the next they'd be dead. - that they wouldn't have felt a thing. Sounds a better way to go than most deaths.
