Nautilus visits U-166, one of two U-Boat wrecks in the Gulf of Mexico. The boat was sunk early on in World War II, sinking only four ships before being destroyed by a U.S. Naval vessel next to its final target, the Robert E. Lee, in 1942. - Наука
The U-Boat still has all 52 of it's crewman onboard... very eerie
Evan McQueen I'd imagine that all of the remains would have floated away but I could be wrong but it is definitely a scary place down there
+Billy Rigney Sadly not you have to remember she's a closed wreck with the exception of where she broke in half.
the Remains can't float away if they can't get out.
Shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu True, im not a boat expert and forgot to think that it was a submarine as ludicrous as that sounds! We all have them days haha. Very sad for the trapped souls down there though and it must have been one of the worst ways to go too
+Billy Rigney Yes, the terror of you actually drowning and watching your friends drown doesn't feel like a pleasent way to go.
+Evan McQueen To be honest without sounding too graphic I'd imagine a few of them would have suffocated being in water tight compartments.
This is amazing footage. U-166, an IX-C boat, wasn't even two years old when she was lost with all hands. A sister IX-C, U-505, can be seen in the Museum Of Science and Industry in Chicago. Only 54 were built. I have an old Polaroid photo (1954) with my father standing in the foreground as U-505 was being cradled across Lake Shore Drive.
now I know my bucket list is closer to Canada.
you meant 54 Type IX C (only)? there where about 184 Type IX?
Visited u 505 a few times tour is great
40,000 men served on U Boats, over 30,000 never returned.
My those sailors Rest In Peace in their iron coffins. 😢
They are what submariners call as being on"eternal patrol"!
Numbers are skewed regarding German U-boats. There were over 1,600 U-boats built, each on average had a 50 man crew. If you do the math that's 80,000 men. Over 700 U-boats were sunk, most of those men didn't survive. So 30,000 Kia on a sub was a conservative number
I question your numbers. My uncle was a skipper on both a type 7 and type 9. He was sunk twice and by miracle of god lived. These wrecks are war graves to the kids who died in them. Respect them as such.
One of the Operation Drumbeat boats- the US was so badly unprepared for WW2 that there was no blackout on the coast and no antisubmarine patrols to speak of. For about two months German U-Boats ranged the US coast and the Caribbean at will- sinking ships within sight of people on shore. One U-Boat actually positioned itself between the merchant ship and the shore to avoid hitting civilians who were watching from the shore, before shelling the ship it intended to sink. Many of the ships sunk were vital tankers and it was a crisis point in the Battle of The Atlantic. Eventually, the USN got its act together, strengthened its defenses and the sinkings tailed off but not before a lot of men and ships were lost. According to records, the PC 566 did not sink it, it was sunk by aircraft on the 30th of July, 1942. From the hatches being closed we can safely assume that U-166 managed to dive before being depth bombed and sunk. A nasty way to die, I'm sure.
It is so sad, seeing the top hatch in the conning tower still securely dogged. All of these men went to their graves here.
and 32 civilian people went to their graves as victims of attacks by U-166.
Well, it's war for you
@@mikebritcom3171 Civilian might be a bit too broad of a statement, they were part of the merchant navy which had a tendency to arm their vessels so they could fight back, In my opinion any ships with guns on deck, no matter the crew, I consider legitimate targets during war operations. Remember that these men were fighting for their country and died doing so. The IX C types had a complement of 48 to 56.
What goes around comes around.
@@mikebritcom3171 The crews of these boats had no choice but to fight for their country, and follow orders. Anyone who disobeyed orders faced the firing squad.
Interesting side story....It was determined in 2014 that U-166 was actually sunk by US Navy PC 566, not the Coast Guard Widgeon seaplane as originally thought. Apparently the Captain of PC 566 was removed from command after the engagement with U-166 as the Navy thought he had botched the attack.
Rest in peace
Sad and Sobering. Split in two. A horrific and sudden death to her and her crew. Yet also, very interesting. She is astonishingly well preserved. The worst seems to be that the wooden decking has been eaten away. Very little growth or as much metal degradation as I would expect for something being exposed at the bottom as long as this boat has been. Lack of oxygen for the reason as to the state of preservation? Or something else?
it is surmised that as she was diving to avoid Allied ships a depth charge landed right on top of the area in the sub where torpedos were stored causing a chain reaction explosion and breaking the U-boat into 2 sections.
@@Birdbike719 Agree on the first, disagree on the 2nd, Look at the hull, its all caved in, certainly a direct hit with a depth charge, but a subsequent explosion from stored torps... unlikely. The sub was almost certainly carrying some variant of a G7 torpedo, most likely a G7e, which carried over quarter of a ton of a mixture of dipicrylamine and TNT as its warhead. The hull is showing no signs of being forced out from an internal explosion, which if those torpedo warheads had detonated, would have left strong evidence of the hull being blown out. Also the warheads were relatively safe until they got armed, and that was only when they got put in the tubes. It would need a direct hit on the warhead to set that off, and that's impossible when the torps are inside the sub. Its more likely the sub received a direct hit from at least one, if not more, depth charges, which caved the hull in, and most likely split in two when it hit the seabed due to a weakened structure form the depth charges.
I suppose it was better than burning to deat or being eaten..
The main reason..? It was Made in Germany !
@@roadsweeper1 The two pieces are more than 100 feet apart. There was definitely more than a depth charge that blew the two pieces of the boat that far apart. I believe they were possibly loading aft tunes one and two when they were struck with the fatal charges possibly or moving them from storage to aft tubes. She definitely took a very rare depth charge to the stern deck but I do believe from distance of wreckage she definitely had a internal explosion pushing the two pieces away from each other.
This is the best video and audio I have encountered so far in watching underwater exploration videos on RUclips. Great definition. Well done.
Ich hatt' einen Kameraden, R.I.P
Das tut mir ein furchbar leid. Nicht.
@@davidh9844 wau was für Einstellung...
Wenn dann schon R. I. F.. 😏⚫⚪🔴🙋🏻♂️
@@davidh9844du bist als Mensch weniger wert als Müll.
Outstanding footage here, hard to believe it is so very clear...
The U-166 must have made a very speedy decent. The retractable antenna is still extended and seeing it bent back like that tells me they made a crash dive and what ever damage they had took them to the bottom.
Please see my comment above. It appears that a depth charge exploded right at the boat and set off some of the boat's torpedoes as well as the depth charge explosion. It's pretty much blown in half. It went down FAST after that explosion.
Most of that is crush depth damage. Depth charges were not powerful enough to tear a boat in half. They would crack the pressure hull and cause massive flooding. When she reached crush depth, she would crumple like a tin can.
@@patrickmccrann991 true but as stated the shockwave set off the torpedos onboard. the type ll torpedoes of that time were reknown for being fragile
@@tramlink8544 possible but highly unlikely. Depth charges cause overpressure of the hull to create a breach, they don't explode like a bomb. Even one exploding in contact with the hull is unlikely to cause a sympathetic explosion of the torpedoes. More possible is a hot run in a tube that could have lead to an explosion of the warhead from overheating in the tube.
@@tramlink8544 The torpedo storage is forward. The break is over the diesel engine room. This points to severe depth charge damage and final breakup due to crush depth being exceeded.
Had no idea this was sunk in the Gulf of Mexico! Dang. So close to the mainland. I just love your channel. Just found it accidently yesterday.
The U-Boat U166 is Type IX and the commander was Hans-Günther Kuhlmann.
They begin the journey the 17:th of June 1942 and sanked four ships of 7595 ton together.
U166 was sunk 1:st of August 1942.
The german U-boat crews was the most bravest men during WW2.
Actually, one of the craft sunk was a tiny coastal sailing boat that carried agricultural products (84 tons, from the Dominican Republic) and another was a small motor-driven fishing boat (American, based in Miami, only 10 tons). Both were sunk by gunfire. Only two ships were sunk by torpedoes, one was the Robert E. Lee.
Thanks for the history lesson buddy
Otto Von Stirlitz bullshit
Bravest men of world war 2 are all those whom gave there life for freedom
@@MackWTFreally which would be people in these metal deathtraps.
@O D GREEN Yep and the Americans shouldnt have been in japan killing, just like the Russians shouldnt have been in Germany killing. Can't forget the Japanese! In war everyone is the good guy and the bad guy, get over it
40,000 men served in the u-boats less than 10,000 returned
95,000 men surrendered at Stalingrad, only 5,000 survived, better odds in the U-Boote!
Not necessarily a bad thing. Keep in mind, those vessels were built mostly with slave labor. Slave labor!
Good.
@Edoardo Quarta no this guy is a troll
Sie gaben ihr Leben für unser Land. 🙋🏻♂️🔴⚪⚫
Talking about human remains, those U-boats quite commonly have entire compartments still sealed and airtight if they're not too deep. When I was in the US Navy I had a few drinks with a retired deep sea diving dude, the guy's who breathe helium and dive to 1000' on a daily basis, insane. Anyhow, he said back in the 1960s they started finding all kinds of stuff in the Mediterranean, planes, ships, and submarines with better SSS. According to him, he and a crew torched a part of a U-boat from something like 200', which is kinda deep but you could do it with scuba. They haul it on board, it's the aft torpedo room, they open the hatch, he said it was like cold rotten meat, it stank but there they were, four sailors, still in uniform, slumped on the deck. He said they were well preserved enough if he were handed a photo of one of the four he'd recognize him.
Haul it onboard haul what WTF ? This dude sounds like he drank a case of mad dog and smoked some dinner as well rotting meat hahahahahahah
That is WILD. If its true. Did he take anything?
Treat it respectfully, it’s a war grave.
For anyone who is about to comment “but it was Nazi’s, they deserve to die!” Not all Germans were Nazis, and most German soldiers were drafted into war regardless of political beliefs.
@@charliekill88 And most of the Kriegsmarine command felt the Nazi regime to be detestable.
Yes, they were our enemies at the time, but they were brave young men fighting for their country, however misled they were. I agree. Respect please. Real families lost real sons, real fathers, real brothers, real husbands.
@@jmfa57 most just kids. following orders.
@@charliekill88 It's true what you say but at the same time the German nation bought in to the master race, world domination ideology. Imagine the same type of ideology being implemented or cultivated in other nations....we'd only stop laughing in order to haul those pricks out of office and string them up by their gonads. They would get zero percent co-operation. The German army slaughtered everything as the retreated...men women children animals...EVERYTHING! Who in the name of Christ does that!!!!
Thank You Nautilus. I recorded the whole expedition You guys did to this Sub. I must have well over 5 hours of it.
Be cool if You Guys did some Japanese War Wrecks in the Pacific..........
Amazing how the forward section is buried in the mud all the way up to the decking. Amazing detail.
Great video footage, but its a shame the volume is far too low. I don't imagine it would be hard to fix that. I have my computer volume at 100 & I cant hear it.
1400 Meters.. That's a long way down for a resting place..
The ONLY place of peace.
My epic warship was sunk above the Mariana trench and it sunk to the bottom (sunk but Soviet u-boat)
The IJN Yamato also sank around the Mariana Trench I believe 😐 too bad, would've made a great test ship at Bikini.
As an ex ROV Pilot/Engineer that is excellent footage.
Nice clear high-resolution video. You can see the periscope at 1:46.
You must be really bored...
The thing off center is the boat's stand of its third sight. The U-Boot-Zieloptik
Amazing how much sediment has covered it in 80 years.
Weird to think in another 80 it’ll be gone
THANK GOD SHES IN SUCH DERP WATER NO SCAVANGERS CAN GET TO HER. MY DAD WAS 4 YEARS USN N ATLANTIC AND NORMANDY. I MISS HIM ABOUT OUR TALKS. TO THE MEMORY OF U166 CREW FAIR WIND AND FOLLOWING SEA.
Excellent work. Beautiful footage.
Fantastic footage. Hope they release The whole dive and add some history and context to it too.
I served on us Fleet boats Rock and Bream proud of it.
Stands testament to brave young men, even though they were the enemy it's still sad.
Hmm where would you hide if your country was at war.
Typical an anonymous backseat whinger. Top of the list of people to avoid during a crisis.
Or the subs,I suppose they need paper pushers, and the toilet rolls always need replacing, it's a shame you don't use your real name. never mind carry on the good work, oh and don't try to troll adults
Beppe my father was a WWII veteran as were almost all of his circle of friends and our relatives. I never met a WWII veteran - from the western European theater anyway - who wasn't willing to shake hands with a veteran from the other side of the war.
So if they buried the hatchet before they died, there's no reason for you to feel a need to carry on. Certainly don't suggest you're doing it in their memory, anyway.
Beppe Sapone Not all Germans are Nazis, if you lived an evil military junta you would definitely be conscripted, right?
When all the depth charges dropped around them, did you the only thing they thought about was the Nazi Idealogy?
Its quite interesting, I always thought German Uboats stayed in the Atlantic to prevent supplies from reaching the UK, but this Uboat was in the Gulf of Mexico near the coast of Louisiana. I imagine civilians in the US coastline in fear of using their boats due to a German uboat hunting in the area.
They were very active in the Gulf. But it was kept quiet by the war department, so as to not panic the people.
There are rumours they went ashore shopping! Could it be true?
They called it the 2nd happy time Admiral King decided convoys were a bad idea since it was a british idea... The u boats had a lot of fun in responce
Wow, some people have no sense of the value of life in celebrating death. Enemies or not, they were human beings, with mothers, fathers, siblings, and maybe children back home. War is a fool's errand, one that we as humans are yet to shed.....RIP former foes.
It's in damn good shape, considering 70+ years.
in the sub's last few moments, the crew knew they were under attack, crash diving as fast as they could. standard emergency dive procedure was for all available sailors to run to the bow torpedo room, leaving all the bulk head doors open.
the first few depth charges were close and probably fractured the pressure hull, but not fatally so. the bang sounds inside the boat must have been terrifying. the one depth charge that landed on the front deck blew the the torpedoes up and that huge blast blew off the bow. those crew in the torpedo room were the lucky ones, dying instantly.
now with no lights, the boat diving an extreme angle and with a bad list, the survivors in the engine room would have had a few seconds to realize they were doomed. in the pitch black, water poured in through the open doors that facilitated the run to front of the boat.
and those few seconds lightly felt like a life time...no one will ever get me in a submarine.
What is that thing at about 1:58 to about 2:04 at the bottom of the screen that kinda looks like the eye from "Flight of The Navigator"?
Awesome footage. R.I.P Guys.
Your audio level is too low! How deep is this wreck?
6,650 feet. I didn't know the gulf of mexico went down that far personally 🥴
I have dived the wreck of the M2 out from Lyme Regis on several occasions. She sits upright on the seabed at around 30 metres to the deck she went down with all hands apart from the aircraft pilot. After attempting to raise her failed she was sealed with the bodies inside. The wreck is to a fair degree still intact. The last time I dived it I noticed the bow planes were fully upward and found myself thinking was this the last desperate attempt to try to keep the sub on the surface. I chose not dive it again
My Great Uncle CPO John Jewell lies in M2, on his last leave he told his pregnant wife he had a very bad feeling about his upcoming tour for these M class subs had a bad reputation his widow never remarried and his daughter passed on in 2010.M1 lies furthur east in the Channel after colliding with a freighter as only one sea seal had been fitted to the hanger and 8" gun turret respectively.The French Sub Surcouff disappeared whilst escorting a convoy in 1942 and later one merchantman reported hitting something during the night but substained only minor damage her wreck has never been found. Is the hangar door lying partly open Larry?
Don't lie, you've never dove in your life.
wow ! incredible pics of this u boat, the scale is very good with such wide angle, and clear water,
The clarity of the video is exceptional
Amazing cant see the damages from the depth charges it took before it sunk to the bottom
Awesome footage!
Those that I fight, I do not hate
Those that I guard I do not love.
RIP sailors
Lest we forget.
As a German it´s really emotional..
As a Finnish person, an ally nation of WW 2 Germany, I hope we can promote world peace together now.
I´m a finn too.
As an American, having a Nazi submarine sunk in our backyard creates a different feeling. It is not lost that you and your allies wrote your comments on RUclips in English.
As a German i'm really not emotional about that. I wonder what we could have learned and where we would be today if instead of in the war machinery we had put all that resources into peaceful sience.
As an american Skinhead How i long to raise this boat, restore it, fresh coat of Kriegsmarine gray, and vacation with it at PUT IN BAY. Wearing mt ben shermans in the sun atop the conning tower
If I am correct, the U-boat sunk a ocean liner and was then fired upon by escort frigates. As the sub descended, the Coast Guard launched it's depth charges, one of which landed directly on the aft torpedo section. You can imagine their surprise when the ordinance exploded directly over their heads. It took the whole bow with it.
Let's just agree that your version of events is exaggerated, but similar 😐 The SS Robert E Lee was a local passenger steamer, not a transoceanic liner.
@@craftpaint1644, it has also been recorded that this boat sank pleasure craft as well.... With complete sarcasm, those were some very brave nazis...... The n word does NOT deserve capitalization.....
Sound is poor. All my controls are at 110%, but can barely hear what is said.
R.I.P. U166 and crew.
Wonderful video. The three weapons shown are An 8.8cm deck gun forward of the conning tower. The angle gun atop the conning tower is 20mm Oerlikon and the one aft of the conning tower is a 40mm Bofors.
Actually, you are incorrect. The deck gun forward is a 105 mm, the aft gun is a 37mm, and the conning tower gun(s) are twin 20mm. This submarine was a Type IX-C and carried heavier guns than the Type VII because she was bigger and could support them.
Those poor men fought a senseless war. May they R.I.P. in their million year sleep. ⚓
Great footage
How deep was this & how faraway is the Robert E Lee? Thanks for any replies.
4500 feet
Wish we had photos of the crew,they deserve at least that.
That and those crewmen of the four ships it sunk before earning a depth charge on the bow 😐
Is the hull buried under the mud?
Yep.
I'd love to see how it looks now, in 2019.
Wow the clear water you could almost back up see the whole thing cant believe. Its off coast
Я никогда не видел такой ФАНТАСТИЧЕСКОЙ сохранности металла за столь длительное время нахождения в воде!!
Даже такая деталь как тоненькая сетка на воздухозаборах дизелей и та сохранилась, это просто не реальная сохранность!!
Жаль у лодки слишком сильные повреждения конструкции, её бы можно было бы достать...
R.I.P.
Is that Robert Ballard talking in there? I may have not been paying attention, but sure does sound like him.
Read the book called Iron Coffins
Yes. Excellent book. Another is The U-Boat War by L. G. Buchheim.
I'm reading it now, thats what brought me here🙏
There's a great fiction story John Manock wrote based in part on the U-171 attack near Louisiana called "Iron Coffin."
My greatuncle served on the U-157. They were 52 crewmembers and they sunk on 13th of July 1942. He just turned 23 at that time. American ships and airplanes sunk them near Key West, Florida. They were never found
I’m very sorry your uncle died like this, and I hope Nautilus schedules a dive eventually, the subsequent results may give your family any necessary closure.. And we all get to see a very intricate piece of history. I’m also very surprised nobody has done a sonar scan yet of the site or sent an ROV down to check it out ( wreck lies approximately 700 meter deep water )
@@leo5504-l9v Yea same, I don't know why no one has ever found them.. There were 2 submarines in the gulf of Mexico that sunk (german ones) and one of them is the one in the video, the other one is the one in which my great-uncle died. Also, I noticed you said uncle xD, I'm 17 so it can't be my uncle. He was my grandmas brother
That Uboat was lost on June 13th, 1942.
@@MagMan4x4 how do you know that?
Wow😮 das Boot sieht noch sehr gut erhalten aus.
Do they know it's u boat number, and so it's history, and how it was sunk?
Looks like it's in pretty good condition.
What you can see is but a good third of the boat is shredded. Nope, not good condition.
Très belles prises de vue sur l·épave ...
How deep is it? Short video. Are there any more links?
Although the audio is rather poor it is mentioned in the footage : 1400 meters
Silent tomb. Sad, just young men and boys...
Rip
What a beautiful machine
Can't hear what is being said. Audio turned up to max.
The history and what happened to U-166 in the Gulf of Mexico is at: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_submarine_U-166_(1941)
Well worth reading! Thank you.
There are litterally hundreds of u boat wrecks in rivers and off the coast of America. What they dont mention is most of them were scuttled which means the occupants reached their destination, met another ship and sank the u boat. Wonder why?
To avoid the capture of the U-Boat and all sensitive material on board. The capture a U-Boat was how the German Naval Codes were cracked.
olá amigos ótima tarde que história sobre este submarino da segunda guerra mundial abs de carapicuiba são Paulo Brasil parabéns
Why is there very little marine growth on it? One of the guns just has some silt on it. How deep is it?
at 3.50 she says 1400 meters thats 4600 feet
Is this considered a war grave or would it be possible to raise on of the deck guns?
War grave. 52 men entombed.
What variant of the Type VII has a second deck gun like this one?
This was a type IX-C not a VII.
It’s a Type IX. The early ones (the As, Bs, and some of the early Cs like U-166) had a single-shot 37mm AA gun on the after deck. Later a platform was added here, and the 37mm was replaced with an automatic version, which is the more distinctive look of the Type IX
Awesome, thanks
How deep is the wreck?
I have most of these recordings of this sub they did but I couldnt record sound. Saved well over 8 hours worth of recordings at my RUclips page......
Where in the golf can you give the Coordinates?
28.40N, 88.30W, Some 45 miles south of the mouth of Mississippi River
I heard about this U-boat last I checked it was first discovered in 2001
How deep is the water?

Rest well.
I can't imagine the final moments of the crew r.i.p brave german sailors
All I thought about when i saw this. Must have been horrible. Everyone should see the german movie Das Boot or The Boat.

C A people like you are why everybody hates Americans, so self centred and uneducated
I can imagine they knew they were going to die when their ears were wrecked by the loud sound of a direct hit breaking off the front of their killing machine 😐
Can you guys go around France and England and find Aircraft wrecks from Battle of Britain there are many English, German, American Aircraft there. Maybe you can find a complete JU-87
Great that you have both the footage of the Robert E Lee AND the sub that was believed to have sunk her.
Awesome!
very well preserved I think, a shame that a good portion of it is in the mud
It's to bad this u boat could not be raised and out on display. An amazing piece of history. And all hands being repatriated back to germany
There are millions of tons of planes, ships and other junk from WWII. It's a waste of time to get emotional about it, in my opinion.
The United States and Britain had dozens of intact U Boats and Japanese submarines that surrendered after the war. The few that people wished to preserve could take their pick without dredging up wrecks that had been sunk for many decades
If you want to visit a display, I recommend Pearl Harbor, where you can view where the Arizona Battleship blew up and next to it the Battleship Missouri, where the peace was signed in 1945.
.
Not to mention similar quantities of American and British ships and aircraft sunk.
RIP, mariners all.
This is amazing
My grandfather was the one who spotted the submarine!
+Pierre S my great grandfathers ship was hit twice by a torpedo
If he is alive please Thank him for his service. He and all the allied soldiers literally saved the world. Imagine if Germany and their allies won the war. It was the men of WWII that inspired me to serve my country during Desert Storm.
Every video on RUclips has someone in the comments who says "i was friends with that person" or "my father worked there" or "my grandfather spotted the submarine"! Sorry but at this point if you dont have proof just move on and keep it to yourself.
Zoes Dada how are you going to post proof in the comment section?? And I don't know about you but I'm not going to post a video or something just to prove anything to you... Let people write what they want dude. So why don't you move on and keep it to yourself buddy
Boat is a type 9 : 105 fwd 20 bridge 37 aft Conn
Why does the video title says 1940, if in that year there were no sinkings of any vessels near the US coast ? Besides, the USA entered the war by the end of '41, and the U-166 was sunk in '42....
It would be nice if you would publish the depth.
Although the audio is rather poor it is mentioned in the footage : 1400 meters
Which boat was it?
U-166, a type IX-C long range U-boat, under the command of Oberleutnant zur See Hans-Günther Kuhlmann (28).
Rest In Peace.
Rest In Peace submariners!
Just shows how close they were to us and we didn’t even know it
Off the coast of Louisiana!
Im SwIft well we had a sense they were there; which is why costal blackouts were common along the east coast and gulf. Go to Bethany beach DW and you’ll see spotting towers up and down the beaches. They did the same on the island of Puerto Rico; as an early warning
Why is it in so good shape ?
A lott of boats have alredy rotted their outher shell away
Z T there is very little oxygen at that depth and you need oxygen in order for steel to rust and decay, that’s why ships like titanic and bismark are still in relatively good condition, because of how deep they are.
Fueron los mejores en todo.
must go back to the Titanic.dr ballard, the USS thresher and USS scorpion documentary was fantastic
Looks like it has a Moray Eel hanging out with it.
Do I hear Homeworld Background Music? ;)
