It always amazed me how something as small as a U-Boat could not only carry the weapons and ammunition to fight, but also enough fuel, food and fresh water for 40 -50+ men. Yet they still crossed oceans in them, nothing short of incredible when you consider the technology they had then.
@@manbearpig2164 True, but only a tenth of them are still fully visible, the rest have returned to the sand or are quickly on their way to doing so. Plus, a lot of them are creating new ecosystems, where there wasn’t any before, so there’s that.
Very informative, did not realize so many shipwrecks in the Baltic Sea. Would be an informative documentary about the Gustov (?) and U boat sinking. Perhaps a one sentence mention going to school learning about WWII? Honestly, can not remember. Should be more information provided as a reminder of all lives lost during that horrendous war. Appreciate what was learned here, today. Sad, the camera from America never arrived. Successful anyway. 👍👍
Exactly...wth? They put the Wilhelm Gustloff as the cover photo for the video and then it turns into the same video that I've already seen 300,000 times because it's hidden among videos for other ships.
Was there a u-boat in there somewhere and I missed it or is this part one of more videos? That was an interesting tour of your countryside and friends.
...someone forgot to mention that elite divisions and Waffen SS were aboard the ship...many civilians too (but most of them were hard National Socialist Party supporters who were given land in the "sanitized" ost territories conquered to the soviets! Wasn't that a legitimate target for the soviet sub S13 captained by S Romanesko?
I am getting frustrated and tired of these "Find the Wreck" videos. So much liken to the 'excitement' of the "Al Capone Vaults" let down. A quick video padded out to fill time of a real TV Show complete with space for commercial insertion... So many maritime "Grave" No diving sites, Yet Egypt and other sites are freely grave robbed. Disgusting.
@@packrat76 Yes to a much smaller extent, as counterfeiting is replacing artifacts. It is much easier to make a faux artifact, than to hunt for untouched graves.
😅& yet your watching 👀 knowone is making you watch. Very interesting to learn about other than the Titanic lives lost that's a stunning fact that will shut up about Titanic now.
