Once finished, it should look very similar to a life jacket, with the legs cast over your neck and the waist of the pants, below your chest, to raise you from the water and save you from struggling.

This should staggeringly increase your odds of rescue by hours, should any hope exist. 7/?

You will catch this air into your pants by doing a “catching” motion over the water with the large end. By dropping the waist-side into the water, it will force the air you’ve captured into the pinch of your pants legs.

Fill as necessary, and leave room to tie up the waist at your goal volume. 6/?

Conceptually, imagine you’re replacing a trash bag into a trash can.

The plastic is sticking to itself but you want it to have air flow and open up. This is what we are doing with the large end of our pants. We are now opening the pant legs by “catching air” into the pants. 5/?

Tie the ends of your pant legs into a knot. It may be easiest to just tie one to the other and call it a day — all you need is a pinch to prevent air flow from escaping the leg cavities.

Once achieved, we get to the tricky but necessary part. The top end of your pants. 4/?

As possible, spend time on your back, floating by keeping air in your chest and decompressing slowly.

Here’s where the survival tool comes in.

Make sure your pants are sufficiently soaked. This only works if the water creates a seal of pressure across your pants, preventing air flow in or out. 3/?

Okay, so you’re over board. Depending on the size of the ship, it could take 40 minutes for it to spin around and come back for you, assuming they saw you go down at all.

Don’t panic, but you’re going to want to begin conserving your energy immediately. This has become a battle of attrition. 2/?

There’s this niche fucking skill that’s invariably useless unless you plan on spending time at sea. I think it’s still valuable, both as a discipline but also conceptually, and it makes a cool party trick.

How-to: Turn your pants into a flotation device. 1/?

You’ve raised them well. Now crush them.
