The ability of humans to capsize ships is well known. Because they were in such high demand, the United Nations estimates that there are three million shipswrecks scattered across the ocean floor.
In today’s video, we’ll talk about Amazing Sunken Ships.
Let’s find out ten such incredible shipwrecks, which are dispersed across the oceanic landscape in every single country on the face of the entire planet.
Number 10. Frigate 356.
One of the very last of the Soviet Union's military vessels to see action was a frigate with the designation 356. During the early part of the 1980s, when the Cold War was coming to a close, the 356 was being constructed.
Number 9. Prince Albert.
The Prince Albert is one of those ships that was purposefully sunk so that it could be used for recreational scuba diving purposes in the future.
In spite of the fact that the vessel's original purpose was to bring war refugees from Nicaragua to Roatan in Latin America, a local resort owner and a local entrepreneur came up with the idea to sink the vessel and use it as a diving arena in order to help the former's business grow.
Number 8. Tugboat Rozi.
The Rozi, a tugboat that now sits submerged in the oceanic seas of Malta, is another example of something that was intentionally sunk.
Number 7. Giannis D.
The Giannis D is one of the ships that may legitimately be considered to be lost.
Number 6. USS Arizona.
During the infamous attack on Pearl Harbour, the United States Navy ship Arizona was one of the most significant vessels to be destroyed in the course of the war.
Number 5. P29.
A Maltese patrol vessel known as the P29 was purposely sunk for recreational diving purposes in order to make it accessible to divers.
Number 4. USS Utah.
The battleship Utah became yet another victim of the Second World War when it was sunk by the Japanese during their assault on Pearl Harbour.
Number 3. Unnamed Yacht.
The Unnamed Yacht, which is featured here as one of ten sunken ships, can be found sunk in the waters of the Red Sea close to the coast of Egypt.
Number 2. Sweepstakes.
The ship Sweepstakes, which was later discovered to have sunken in the seas of the Fathom Five Nation Marine Park in Ontario, Canada, possessed a unique distinction among the sunken vessels.
Before it got into disrepair and sunk, the ship had been used in the 19th century to carry coal.
Number 1. Russian Shipwreck.
The Russian Shipwreck is the most interesting of all the shipwrecks that are included in this collection since it is the very last one.
It has been speculated that the sunken ship belonged to an intelligence gathering vessel, and the discovery of multiple communication devices lends credence to this theory.
Shipwrecks are often but not always synonymous with vessels being sunk by pirates. In the current day and age, there are many occurrences that result in the unwelcome addition of wrecks that are buried underwater and stacked on the ocean floor. Of these, some of the wrecks are interesting to look at, while others cast a dark cloud over the activities that take place in the maritime domain as a whole.
