Short Videos showing a selection of typical UK cold water dives at various training venues, rivers, lakes, quarries and a bit of tombstoning. Their are also shore, scenic and wreck dives in the sea as well as a bit of slate mine exploration. Lately, as I have aged, I have added the occasional tropical dive in places like the Red Sea, Malta, Cyprus and The Maldives. This page used to display videos produced by the various members of Icicle Divers Sub Aqua Club (SAA 108) based in Crewe under the title of Iciclediver. Like so many others this club has ceased to exist and we are now simply a group of divers with no affiliation. Although it is not my most popular video ' The grey selkie of shule skerry' is my favourite
At first i thought this was a fake, cuz how on earth could the flag have survived in such pristine condition all this time... ...then i realized this was put after the fact. kinda misleading tbh...
I like the scene from the movie, "The Chase." The main character played by John Wayne, a tramp frieghter captain who served in the Imperial German Navy. In the final confrontation with the Britiah Royal Navy Wayne would not surrender his ship, looking through a closest he picked out and raised a tattered but still recognizable battle flag of the IGN.
I love the imperial German flag. It has an elegance harking back to the Middle Ages and modern elements of iconography mixed together. Most ww1 flags were cool like that.
Thank you for this, I saw a video for the Bismarck and it was like 2 small clips and a picture and they're like "they were down there for 12 hours", and it was disappointing to get so little from such a significant ship, and bow much they could've shown
Came for the ship, stayed for the fish, bros live in the coolest spot ever. (Not if you have submechanophobia like myself, but for a fish it’s like the sickest.)
@@iciclediver, hah, didn't think they were a common sight around our coasts. The first thing I think of when I think about sea urchins are the vibrant purple star shaped ones you always see in the Pacific.
@@tigerbeforyou181 Warum sind Sie nicht einverstanden? Wenn es um die Faschisten geht, dann habe ich eine Erklärung: Die Monarchisten sind ganz anders als die Faschisten. Die Monarchisten stören Deutschland nicht einmal, es sind immer die gewalttätigen Gruppen. Wenn überhaupt, dann wollen die Monarchisten nur Deutschland helfen, aber die linke Regierung stellt die Monarchisten als Faschisten dar, obwohl die Monarchisten die Faschisten hassen.
Wait I realized just now this was posted 13 years ago ? Took this long to get recommended. Also, the planted Imperial German Flag was very nice. Any plans to go back there ?
I went to see SMS Dresden, at Scapa Flow (34mts), via ROV. You could see the Karl zeiss lens as clear as the day they sighted targets - the rest of the guns and external optics covered with barnacles. Bucket lists ticked
I think that apart from the optical range finders which were removed before the fleet sailed from Germany these ships were inferior to British battleships of the same vintage but perhaps their Battlecruisers were superior to our Battlecruisers
@@iciclediverBei weitem waren die Kaiserlichen überlegen. Denk mal an die Schlacht am Skargarak. Das war das Ende der britischen Seehoheit. Oder warum hat man die Schiffe mit ihren Besatzungen so lange interniert ohne klares Bestimmungsziel und hat am Ende kriegsverbrecherisch die deutschen Besatzungen an Land schwimmend ermordet?
thank you for being respectful! a lot of german war graves in the baltic are being looted and vandalized by polish and russian divers and the polish and russian authorities don't give a fuck about it - meanwhile nazis try to ruin every little bit of historic germanness with their close minded hatred:/ thank you again, sincerely first and foremost a human..
