U-869 video

I found the thread after a little searching. http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/ba...s-john-chatterton-s-interview-scubaboard.html if you're interested.

No problem. Like you said, still a good read. Thanks for the interview info.

Anyone know of any decent U-869 video? I just read shadow divers and I'm all hyped up haha.

You can get Hitler's Lost Sub DVD from the library.

What about pictures?

As far as I know, only Steve Gatto and possibly Brad Sheard took stills on the wreck. Most of the images I have seen of the wreck were on video, and a lot of that was incorporated in part in the Nova documentary.

I have a lot of admiration for those gentlemen; I know I have a hard enough time just carrying a video camera and letting it run while I dive. Stopping to set up and frame a shot, set exposure, flash, etc. are all way beyond my patience level. Take all that down to 230', on air and on open circuit, and I for one would just leave the camera on the boat and try to survive the dive...

Yeah, for real.
