We did that all the time on the submarine.

We’d pick up big valves that weren’t too radioactive and toss them like medicine balls to each other.

Too toughen up we’d go to test depth, open up a valve, let the seawater in and take it in the chest. We’d stop when the COB would notice his drain pump cycling.

Sometimes we’d get into the aft escape hatch, open up the outer hatch, and see how much pressure we could take.

Sarcasm off!
