As far as I know, it's only dangerous if you hold your breath. The Navy equips subs with Steinke (spelling?) hoods, that allow the sailor to exit the sub a hundred feet below water, and as long as they breathe on the way up, they are ok. The hoods, I believe, are very postively bouyant, thus shooting the sailor up rapidly.
