Two members of the crew are still alive or were..both where attending the U-boat officers course..one actually went down to the wreck in a mini submersible to pay his respect to his fallen comrades..😢😢..
A documentary made about it concluded the boat ran into a german mine field when coming into port, hit a mine, and its rear half of about 30 feet got blown off and it sunk
If you go to U-boat.net, there is a lot of good information on this and many other U-Boats. This one hit a mine -- likely a German mine -- and sunk with 51 sailors. So, yes, there are probably human remains inside.
El U-455 informó por última vez el 2 de abril de 1944 mientras regresaba de su área de patrulla frente a Argel. Su naufragio fue descubierto en 2005 a una profundidad de 120 m frente a Portofino, Italia. Destino previamente registrado Hundido el 6 de abril de 1944 cerca de La Spezia, en la posición 44.04N, 09.51E, por una mina, posiblemente alemana.
@Richard Tricker Undoubtedly there were survivors to leave an open hatch. One hell of a way to die. U455 had her stern blown off by a mine while at periscope depth. The last 33 odd feet was blown off, leaving the sub to sink stern first into the sea bed. I hope you can get the gist from the video that the wreck is vertical, having gone into the sea bed like a dart, stern first, leaving her bow pointing up to the sky. Think about that for a moment. It means the interior of the sub is now a vertical steel tube about 150 feet long, separated only by three internal bulk heads. It would be like looking down an elevator shaft. Anything that wasn't secured is going to tumble down, and that means torpedo's that weren't secured, furniture, tools and of course crew will all tumble down on top of each other. Then if the the batteries electrolyte makes contact with the sea water, Clorine gas will be created burning your lungs and eyes out. All this will be going on I presume in total darkness as the lights have gone out, water is rushing in and the boat is sinking by the stern. What a way to go. For those that made it out of the hatch they've got I presume one breath of air which they must exhale all the way to the surface, and 390 feet of water above them to the surface and their next breath. Having made that, its now a 2 mile swim to the nearest shore. There were no known survivors from this boat.
@@alexwild4350 Thanks for sharing that with us! I always think about stuff like that. Even if we were on the other side of the war, they were still doing the job they were told to do. Much respect for them, once former enemies, now just people!
Love the way these machines, made for killing and destroying, turn into oases of life as they are consumed. Fast forward a 100 years or so and these will all be gone, mostly. Just rusty stains on the ocean floor and a few scraps of ceramic and glass.

This has been enchanting. Thank you. 🇨🇦
This is some REALLY GREAT underwater photography/video. Some of the best I've seen.

Awesome gear , rebreathers , backup and backup tanks more backup... Serius stuff and great video .
Grande ritrovamento. Belle imnagini storiche della 2 guerra mondiale . una bara somnersa. Riposano i caduti.
U-455 was sunk by a German mine in the German barrage Fuss-Ball-Klub, when returning from a patrol off Algiers. 51 dead, all hands lost.
The naval dead on all sides were heroes. They fought with bravery not necessarily for the politics.
They fought for their country and their homes.
nice light in camera ! so great contrast, and could set a lower iso 😆
awesome dive..... well done guys
Such a peaceful resting place for these young men, and such a tragic end to be sunk by their own mines.
what are the make of the fins at 2:28 ?
is there any interesting at the audiolane? Because you tube has delete it.
Somebody else know if when they find this submarine, still had body in side? And what was the reason for the shipwreck?

*Hello fom Latvia!*
I was thinking that also
Freediving fins???
I expected there to be less light.
it depends on the day, you can find it very dark or almost clear, then of course we use underwater light systems
How deep iz it?
390 feet
Do you know where the Poseidon shipwreck is? I need the coordinates
NO sorry ...
Anyone know the first song name? nice piano
Der stählerne Sarg für viele junge U-Boot-Fahrer ist idealer Lebensraum für Meeres-Bewohner geworden....;! RIP;!
I would love for someone to get all the rope and net out of there. I’m sure some animals have died.
Don't touch the line!
Not a video but a photo slideshow spliced to some dive footage, with added music.....ZZzzzzz
that's just the beginning wait and see
👍👍👍👍👍
For the record this boat was not “lost”, it was actually sunk by a German mine. Karma.
true
With the conning tower hatch open like that makes me wonder if there were any survivors 🤞🇩🇪🙏

Remember it's a graveyard
We dont need to remember, it is forbidden to enter and so narrow you could not even think to get inside with all this gear.
