Deep Wrecks of Truk Lagoon

Diving the I-169 submarine and the Hoki, Nippo, Seiko, Momokawa, San Francisco and Aikoko Marus in January 2014

[@tlbx57]

Spent eight days diving the Truk wrecks in 2008. An experience of a lifetime. Looks as little has changed judging from this video. Thanks for sharing.

[@ponyrang]

Wow... !!! My best friend, Great Good... !!! I wish you every day of your development.

[@stevegant7856]

This is definitely on my bucket list, It would be the greatest dive of all time! I love WWII history!

[@klocknerdeutz]

Always find it ironic (if that's the correct word)... just imagine the stress and horror going on back then, and now everything is serene and quiet. Especially with the beautiful blue waters and fishies.

[@SavageDroggo]

Yeah...these are the results of war, that’s why we crave for a peaceful world these days. We must respect these ships and their history, that’s why it’s good to see them but also to know what kind of destruction war can bring

[@genegroundjr3502]

Didn't mind the music great video thank you for posting all this it's amazing your Brave person

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

I'm used to the pristine wrecks of the Great Lakes. Never realised how blessed, and spoiled, we are when comparing our wrecks to the discernable ocean rust wrecks.

[@joshjones3408]

Really really good video awesome stuff very cool you get to see that long nd of stuff👍👍👍👍

[@hectorheathcote9495]

Eerie to say the least. I can imagine the crew working on the deck, moving along the passageways, standing at their stations, orders being shouted and relayed....makes one think.

[@kennysherrill6542]

Cool video,good sound track just right for the Carnage.Have not been there yet would love to go someday.

[@Wild1BillS]

All these wrecks still look the same as when I was there in 99 and again in 04

[@alcyonemusica]

the music is excellent

[@spongehead1354]

If you want to be completely awake and see why these ships are down there watch, [ JFK to 9/11 everything is a rich man's trick ] It's probably the best documentary ever made!

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

Ill check it out!

[@iamrichrocker]

imagination does run wild..the fear, terror..and maybe thoughts of family and home at the end...

[@HoopTY303]

Pretty brave to go into those hulls, does not appear structurally sound, but some awsome video, thanks for the upload!

[@metalbrill]

fh yjyui uyi io io9l ggggggggg hy

[@dryldcksn]

You know, I'd love to dive this location but even though, at the time of the battle, the Japanese were the enemy, these wrecks are full of war dead and that should be respected.

[@ronniecardy]

I wonder how many people lost their life there. Thanks for letting us see this very good video. Wonder or any of the longer ones or on line. Thanks again

[@SavageDroggo]

I remember hearing about one of them sank with more than 300 people onboard, but I don’t remember which

[@user-xp5gf1bb9r]

great bro video

[@jaddy540]

My ship USS Twining, DD540, was sold for scrap. That is nicer, knowing her metals are still serving some uses, than being unfortunate enough to be at the bottom of the sea.

[@mommaslack5310]

Would have liked a bit more of narrative . Wasn't sure what I looking at but really enjoyed video.

[@jamesmontroy3902]

The destruction of war is terrible I pray one day the world will say no more of this R.I.P.

[@flyinghigh370]

Thank you for the video! Very impressive filming in difficult conditions. Please tell me about your camera and dive lights. I am a new diver and filmmaker and am curious. Thank you!

[@adrianearle4337]

I used a GoPro Hero 3 Silver with dual Sola 1200 lights on a tray with flexible arms. It was a pretty good setup for 2014 but is now surpassed by new technology.

[@flyinghigh370]

Adrian Earle thanks for the reply! I have a GoPro hero 7 black and love the stabilization it offers. I have a tray and a sola 2000. Thinking of getting another flexible arm and another matching sola 2000. I was debating getting a light with a wider beam and replaceable battery like a Kraken or Big blue light. What do you think?

[@JohnDought]

How long can you stay under water with these amounts tanks?

[@stevegant7286]

135 feet is an easy dive, anything under 200ft is easy! 200ft plus adds some extra precautions!

[@johnlayzell4595]

sound track drives you nuts but great filming good video.

[@thenoobletlego]

Hey man, it's better than that pop/hip hop shit that everyone puts on videos these days! GREAT VIDEO!

[@mikemassino]

I muted the sound after a minute

[@MarcDufresneosorusrex]

ddaa da dii di daahh dda daaa!!😁

[@michaelwhisman7623]

My father helped put some of those ships there.

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

He did a great job!

[@leedonald58]

Is there a way to remove any parts there , are they restricted or , would please let me know ,PLEASE , THANK YOU ,

[@adrianearle4337]

It is illegal to remove artifacts from the wrecks. They search your luggage for stuff when you leave.

[@markblix6880]

What are you, young and stupid?

[@carlspackler91]

They are war graves, so no.

[@granskare]

we must never touch war wrecks out of respect for the military who died there.

[@mvt1313]

Still a lot of hi expl on these wrecks.

[@jocrp6]

Too Cool, i would be scared of those ships caving in on me if i were sniffing around them,, looks like they will soon,,

[@s.sestric9929]

How those tanks haven't crashed through the deck yet is a mystery.

[@edwardeverson9063]

Wow i want the truck !

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

Its right hand drive! What would you do with it besides deliver mail?

[@carlspackler91]

Once you got it up here in the open air and let it dry out, you'd have nothing but a pile of rust in less than a week.

[@briansteffmagnussen9078]

These Mitsubishi truck looks ready to be pressure washed and start up

[@MarcDufresneosorusrex]

😂👍

[@abizard5899]

dlm seni nya....

[@pattycantrell3474]

Turn off music and enjoy video

[@laurent214]

even better: Add your own music: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXXWiGyIl9mkpas

[@dionnedunsmore9996]

WTH?!?? Howd those trucks get down there tho? Did a ship carrying them wreck or have ppl just dumped em there (idk where this place is) over the years? This is insane....oh n THEN we see all those 100s of cans & bottles!😳wth is this?!??lol ive not seen this bfor

[@windwhipped5]

It was a frieghter full of scrap metal heading back for recycle.

[@ninniapillias6924]

research operation hailstorm from WW2

[@markblix6880]

You seem surprised that you don't know anything about something.

[@strfltcmnd.9925]

they had just arrived from Japan and hadn't had time to offload.

[@somiljauhari4053]

สวยดี...นะจ๊ะ

[@genekelly8467]

Looks like there won't be anything left in a few more years.

[@abizard5899]

mungkin seni seperti ini bapa nya dulu kere...atau semacam tajir gitu penghasilan.....lagi kere kali yea dia

[@bobcranston3414]

Are those human remains at 12:55?

[@flewyae86]

yes

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

Humains

[@arnoldstollar5375]

Overfished

[@roytonkin5929]

A little history would be good without the music.

[@adrianearle4337]

I can recommend the book "WWII Wrecks of Truk Lagoon" by Dan Bailey for some history

[@richardcline1337]

After all of the time that has passed it's still impossible to feel any kind of sympathy for those people. They got what they asked for. Even today they are still arrogant asses as witnessed by their whaling industry that is against all international laws.

[@larryrobertson3310]

had to mute the fucking music

[@user-wm7mi5lx6l]

หน้า ดำน้ำบ้าง จังนะจ๊ะ

[@donaldmorris2561]

What's with that hideous music?

[@Minong_Manitou_Mishepeshu]

Snake charmer music.

[@genekelly8467]

Piles of rusty junk...like visiting a junkyard.

[@ronalddownham6470]

Terrible music

[@andyfaulk3962]

90% of wreck diving videos have terrible music, this is a fact
