We were taught that "trick" in U.S. Navy boot camp when I went through it in 1982. Something that every sailor should know how to do (unless you are sailing in cold water where survival for longer than tens of minutes is unlikely. Not an issue in the waters around Thailand.

White hat float trick too.  Worked, but not as good as the dungarees.

Concur. I was in submarines for 24 years so the chance of actually surviving and being able to float (while alive) was slim to none. But it is nice info to have if you are in a situation that requires it.
