Deciphering the Clues: Who or What Actually Sunk the U-869?

[@marckcarbonelloifveteran410]

That is an archaeological site. As long as you don’t steal objects from it, there is anything wrong with exploring it. That is not a Nazi U-boat. Nazi was a political party, German U boat is the proper term.

[@martinsuter3531]

@marckcarbonelloifveteran410 - Yes, but in the KZbin CLICK BAIT world calling it a "Nazi" boat rather than a "German" boat attracts more sheeple and gets more views, thus generating more revenue for the video producers . Actual facts are not the main priority here.

@@martinsuter3531 Makes sense

[@herschelmayo2727]

Most likely sunk by a hydrogen explosion. Treasure Salvors discovered a U Boat sitting, totally intact, on the bottom of the English Channel. It was likely the victim of hydrogen poisoning of the crew, or flooding caused by the schnorkel.

Some sailer blew out the crapper

[@catman8965]

The people who found the wreck back in 1991 believe it was destroyed by a failed torpedo.

What difference does it make if you find yourself a plate or bowl from a wreak? Nobody is using it and never will

In a world where I feel most everything these days is scripted, fake or "acting" Kirk, Ritchie & HistoryX is refreshingly authentic to me! I'm not familiar with any of them prior but I'm truly impressed with how candid & straightforward Ritchie & Kirk

Thank you that was interesting.

[@HistoryX]

Glad you enjoyed it!!

[@longinogiorda34]

I believe the cause has been a ’circle run’ of one its own torpedoes.

[@HistoryX]

Out of the three theories, I go with the circular-run torpedo, too

[@normangiven6436]

At the end of the war sabotage of German war supplies was common. A circular run from a defective / sabotaged is not out of the question.

@ of the men on the panel didnt say a word the entire time, what was the point of having them on? Just to fill space and make it look like you have a full panel?

[@elfpimp1]

@15:14 so wait. Its onay for archeologists to dig uo graves for historical purposes yet we can't do thw same with wrecks? Makes sense..

[@HistoryX]

I gotta admit, you make a great point!

[@hashmanclub]

did the batterys explode? Late in the war is the clue.

[@tedwoods2051]

If it is indeed a war quave digging disturbing anything and I think carries the same connotation with desecrating a cemetery digging up bodies in a cemetery same thing
