Right, I think most ocean going naval vessels have the deck quite a way off the water. That would be a bit daunting, both the jumping in and then getting back out.
Yeah, you don't want to jump off the flight deck.

Like 100 feet to the water, the ship I was on.

Apparently, you want to hit feet first, mouth open, nose plugged with your ass cheeks clenched as tight as possible, you know, so the water stays out. I am also told that you would hit the water going 55 mph and the water will be about as soft as a sidewalk would be if you hit it wrong.
