Thanks for no music...absolutely beautiful.
agree , the natural sounds around diving underwater is the music.......
i hate gurgling water sounds on the mic
yeah, this was awesome

As a Veteran, thank you for your service and fulling your duties to the very end! May you rest in piece and know you guys contributed to the victory. Rest easy...

Peace , rest in peace.
"Piece"
Idiot.
Let us remember this is a tomb. Respect to those sailors.
They were submariners.
Why they didnt go inside sub ?
Were their bodies removed and given a proper resting place?
A submarine hitting a mine, if submerged there would be no way out, if on the surface the explosion could be catastrophic and no one could get out. This sub had not been seen for nearly 70 years, so no, the bodies were most likely not recovered. If you go to a National Cemetery such as the Pacific Cemetery, Punch Bowl, Honolulu, Hawaii, there are thousands of names listed as lost at sea. It was sobering to see so many names. This is only one cemetery, in one theater of war for, one country. World wide tens, possibly hundreds of thousands maybe millions were lost at sea whose bodies were never recovered, as well as those who were purposely buried at sea. War is not the answer...
@@rpg7836 Because it's a war grave.
The loos of life is devastating. But the fact nearly Her full crew is with Her makes Me feel as though She is still in service and now eternally guarding them. Rest in peace Ship and Mates.
Great video and all the better for not having music. Thank you
misses village people in the navy
She is remarkably well preserved, for being submerged for so long. I am surprised at how little sea growth and decay from oxidation seems visible. It appears to me her dive planes are up. Am I correct? A lot of damage where she struck the mine it seems, though some of that may have occurred later I suppose, after the superstructure decayed and the nets snagged on her. Sobering. She holds what little remains of the 57 submariners that went down with her. Still on station, still on duty, still at sea. Nice job on the video. Tks.
The submarine is in a good condition - it is seating a smooth sand bed and maybe that has helped. Planes appear to be up but I have noticed changes due to nets that have been dragged - the submarine gun appears to be twisted between dives.
It’s not gonna degrade from oxidation if it isn’t exposed to air
SPIRIT DOT yes they are on station and on duty. It’s a submariners custom
@SPIRIT DOT Eternal patrol. May God bless them all.
SPIRIT DOT I didn’t make up the tradition it’s a submariner‘s tradition I wasn’t even in the Navy I was in the army I was drafted do you know Vietnam probably not good to be young and it is their tradition to honor their Dead have some respect get educated about the subject before you look like a fool
Absolutely amazing, watching you guys take every breath made realise the depth and how brave you guys are to down there and that deep, an absolute honour to watch this , great job and well done
Imagine one guy out of three made it out of that open hatch an to the surface with an emergency breathing apparatus. Then a five mile swim. The man was John Capes...
And imagine how John capes would have felt when nobody in his own country believed him!!!
@@ritikpandey4092 really?
@@chronic2001n
Yeah, people were very skeptical of his story until he was proven correct AFTER his death.
I'm glad you included the trip down. That was pretty cool. Kind of gives the feeling of just how deep it is, and how far you're actually from the surface, and safety. Something goes wrong, you just can't rocket to the top.
It wasn't really deep...just 55 meters.
@@walterseaman2556 thats pretty deep for me
It really does feel deep, lots of water between you and breathable atmosphere. But when you think about it, 127 feet. 40 odd yards. I walk further to get my mail. Hehehehe the difference is in the locale!
@@sid2112 171 feet.
@@GJones462-2W1 let me get this straight, a ten million dollar piece of hardware tells you you're chasing a whale, but you don't believe it...
Great username, love that flick.
Seeing a person swim around the hull really gives you an idea how big these submarines are. I'm just fascinated humans have created such huge objects that can move underwater. And also a bit horrified at the thought that escaping these steel tubes is almost impossible, even when the water's surface is within sight.
A scene was cut from the movie "The Abyss". The first time I saw it a military sub was sinking, damaged, and a sailor is at a water proof door ready to slam it and contain the damage. But there's one sailor frantically running towards the door, and the sailor at the door waits, 'til the other makes it thru.
Then tries to slam and lock the door. Too late, Water pushes in and everyone dies.
I've watched the movie on TV several times, and never seen that clip again. I'd guess they thought it was too "dark".
Nowadays there are ways to escape. But even if you can one hopes hypothermia or sharks dond get you. That or severe weather. At 600ft one doesn't think about getting out. But one is trained how to..
@@raylp4751 At 5:00 you can see the escape hatch out of which John Capes made his amazing escape from this submarine. His story was widely disbelieved until 1997 (many years after his death) when this wreck was discovered and the open escape hatch discovered, confirming the details of his tale.
The Cephalonians islanders are very proud of the Perseus - there is a plaque commemorating the sub and her crew on the east of the island.
Thanks for a great video it looks in great shape for how long it's been down there that 1 guy was so lucky got up to the surface and survived a ordeal off reaching shore the dive team did a remarkable job with this video and they are down a long way to the crew left at their stations R.I.P.
Nice dive in a nice place but Jesus , one deco bottle , a leaking twin-set , and a squeeking regulator how goods your life insurance ?
确实，呼吸时候的哨音很明显
That squeaky reg would drive me nuts...maybe be a safety issue...as well a the leak on the manifold of the twins...safety first.
What, on board a Sub
Ignorant amateurs.
At 20-30m i get scared with a leaking bcd and this guys are at 50m. Also, that squeaking reg would drove me mad
Its terrifying to me to think about diving and then going back up the same route that he did to escape. Such an eerie feeling
These guys are good. They don’t check their gas as frequently as I like, but I see at least 1 bailout tank and great communication. After watching catastrophic cave dives all evening, this is refreshing.
Nope. 50+m on air and sharing 1 deco gas is not safe practice. Bailout is for rebreathers...
only 1 person survived..he was hitching a ride to Alexandria, was npt part of the crew..He escaped using a "twill teunk' escape mechanism..he then swam five miles to an Island where natives hid him for 18 months..i got all of this from a wiki..and it would make a helluva movie...and may all these Brave soldiers rest in peace..they suffered horribly i imagine..
i agree this would make an awesome movie! incredible awareness btw, to actually escape the sub, surface and then figure out the correct direction to swim (east for 5 miles) at night. Wiki says it struck the mine at 10pm.
I read that story, too. The screwed up part of it was that nobody ever believed him. He was some kind of commando on a top secret mission, so his presence on the submarine was top secret. Really, who would buy a story like that? Especially the part about him being the only survivor.
But if you want a really great story to make a movie about, how about the fate of the USS Tang, the only other case I know of where anyone managed to escape from a sunken submarine. Add to that the fact that they were sunk by their own malfunctioning torpedo, and that those that did manage to escape had a harrowing story, being trapped in the sunken sub all night while the Japanese dropped depth charges on them, and the fire in the next compartment, scary stuff.
@@omlettedufromage8588 The sole survivor claimed to have drunk a bottle of wine before escaping and nobody believed him. When the sub was first discovered it was reported on ITN news, the camera peers into the escape hatch and there on the floor is a wine bottle.
and you trust wiki, poor you
@@peterwf6641 It was Irish Whiskey, not wine

@@понятьипростить-з5б трое из членов экипажа смогли эвакуироваться, но только один доплыл до берега
So many submarines not found, no way in hell that I would even get in a new one. These souls are braver than me. Rest in peace all of you.
Dam big submarine,and amazingly intact.
The idea of trying to escape a sunken submarine at this depth which Capes did with a set of Davis lungs is truly a record. This man was lucky to have accomplished what he did!!
This was both beautiful and terrifying for me. Thanks for the awesome video.
I love this footage. Thanks for sharing.
That regulator is driving me batshit crazy! Had to completely mute the audio.
UA-cam: Let's recommend this video 6 years after it was posted.
I know right. I hadn't watched anything about submarines for a few weeks and then this pops up
Well, better than the boy makeup artists they usually reccomend...
I think its because recently there is a submarine accident in indonesia that 53 ppl die in it . In 850m depth
My grandfather was a sailor during WW2 RIP SAILORS..
my grandfather was also on the perseus when it went down
@@leannesciberras863 Really?
Sweet dive. This is now on my bucket list.
This drivers are so brave, in sometimes i get scared just only seeing the video. Bravo man bravo.
What drivers. Didn't know there were any cars in this video
@@davidm3maniac201 haha
I done a wreck dive this morning at 31m...50 plus is very deep. Good footage thanks for the share..
This is the best music in UA-cam🙏
Holy shjt it's both beauty and scary at the same time. Thank you for sharing
Semoga kapal selam nanggala 402 milik Indonesia segera ditemukan. Aamiin
There is a very nice hotel overlooking this dive site, with amazing views to Ithaca. It’s called Hotel Anastasia . Looks like a leaking O ring, I prefer DIN fittings as a connection.
Deep dive 40m+ ghostly yet beautiful
Great subject, very good camera work. Thank you.
Nice dive, deep dives are exhilarating.
Its the opposite of looking out over the roof of a Skyscraper.
Iv only done a 45m dive, but looking back up to the surface.
It's a long way to go, if the shit hits the fan.
Piece to the crew.
Wonderful video , very peaceful and educating the sub is resting at the bottom and looks pretty much intact after all these years ! Rip to the submariners that perished on that day and remember them in your prayers ! The sea is a peaceful place but has seen so much , the good bad and unnecessary such as it is !
καταπληκτικο βιντεο ! μας προσφερατε ενα μοναδικο ταξιδι παιδες ! ευγε και χαρα στο κουραγιο σας !!!!! σας θαυμαζω !!
👍🏴 totally awesome video guys thanks and stay safe
Nice dive..I'd switch to summer gloves though for feel & your buddy seems to have a manifold leak or was it the wing dump seal..the whistle on your reg should go if you adjust your regs flow knob.
Cool video man, once in a lifetime experience!!!!!! Wish I could've been there with ya
Now submariners have escape suits and proper escape hatches and space to actually escape and redundancy. Then it was just a tomb. Must have taken an extreme amount of courage to be a submariner back then
The prologue of a book called sea wolves gives a very detailed account of what happened to this boat and it’s crew.
Awesome video, thanks so much!
Glad you liked it!
I have a slight phobia of diving near wrecks no idea why just do so this video was terrifying to me
Oh I got same feeling man, good to see I not alone
the doge pupy
Same. So I do it anyway
Imagine that going over you
I have also a phobia and what fucking terrifies me is the sonar sound of a submarine.
submechanophobia
Fascinating!!!.......Thanks for sharing 🥰❤️🙏
Glad you enjoyed it
WOW, to have that much light at that depth the water has to be so clear!
The next clip shows A wheel presumably in the Conning Tower.
At Cuxhaven - Dunen there was (closed) a wreck museum. Outside they has several exhibits one was a British sub Conning Tower. I stood in it and that had a wheel also
One more interesting exhibit was a SEEHUND 2 man su with cut outs perspex covered to see inside. These remarkable minis carried 2 torpedoes externally and did sink ships at the end of the War. Fitted with periscope schnorkel diesel and electric engines. The 2 man crew actually sat in deckchairs. To obtain a 'trim' they slid a weight under their seats backward or forward.
Perhaps primitive but it worked. On the other hand you had to sit in one position for maybe 36 or more hours
To what did you attach the gopro ? the video is remarkably stable.
It is mounted on the mask. Head is much more stable than hands when shooting video. Check ua-cam.com/video/QbtsOxy7b6c/v-deo.html
I thoroughly enjoyed that, thanks
I'm not a scuba diver and probably never will be, but it seems to me the hardest part is going back up
Fantastic visibility and no current whatsoever, the best way to dive ! How long was your deco?
Approximately 28 minutes, for ~18 minutes bottom time. Check imgur.com/a/dpmKH
Потрясающее видео.Прозрак отличный,бади тж нормальный.Качество съёмки на высоте.Не хватает исторической справки по этому судну.
Суда военными не бывают.Подводная лодка-военный корабль.
Юрий Бутенко да что вы не говорите?? Суда военными не бывают... и подводные лодки толко военные... не смешите людей. А Титаник на какой подводной лодке обследовали??? У Русских что не подводная то должна быть военная.
I was breathing more than the scuba divers and I’m sitting on a recliner😬How peaceful👍
This absolutely terrifies me lmao, imagine that thing going beneath you
zster 08 there was a tragic accident were a american sub surfaced as a Japanese training school ship was above and sunk it. 6 17 year olds died.
What about above you?
Submechanophobia
I’m sayingggg I have thalassophobia and megalaphobia
@@michelebeck4311 Really?
Good diver..with safe and control situation..very good men!
Fantastic dive!!!!
Please remember the men that died on that sub. Let them rest in peace..God Bless them all.and their families.
Magnificent machine but like all vessels, sink when holed. Noisy reg like my own, but very little bubble noise so geat level of sound, just like we are there. I wonder how many folk have been tempted to go inside? We have several J class subs in the Port Phillip region (Vic, Aus) which have machinery removed so can be swum through - WW1 subs that were deliberately sunk but have all the atmosphere of this one, but much more growth.
amazing video and dive
Absolutely amazing , great work 🤳
I'm guessing all the lines that cover it are from fishing operations in the area snagging the wreck? They seem to have quite a bit of force behind them in places (like turning the deck gun mount ect).
This makes my ears hurt. Thanks for sharing.
From an ex diver!!...your one hell of a guy Mr capes...THE BOLDEST MEASURES ARE THE SAFEST...
So sad when I think of my fellow country men died on this submarine.
0:59 What does this handsignal after the signal for the descend mean? Thank you!
I signalled to him that his first stage has a leak, and he acknowledged it by adding with his fingers that it is a "small" leak. It is not a standard dive signal ofcourse!
Ok, thank you! I was just wondering.
Beautiful dive and the submarine is impressive, extra motivation to take the tech course. How deep is This? Seemed like 60/ 70 meters ish?
How deep is this looks really deep, Can you feel the pressure when you go this deep?
Tells you in desription. 170 ft
Would be great to see the dive profile off your dive computer: actual bottom time, deep and shallow stop times RNT post dive etc. I assume you went onto Nitrox at about 20m, is that right?
Air + EAN50 for deco. Check imgur.com/a/dpmKH
Thanks, looks good, I assume the red section is a 'too fast ascent'? Can I ask what depth you went onto EAN50? I'm assuming you swapped to EAN at 21.7m, this would put you just slightly shallower than your MOD for 1.6 bar for .50, by my calculations, is that right? Looks like a fabulous dive by the way, and still having 17 degrees at the bottom is awesome. Thanks for the graph, nice learning tool for all us other divers :)
Switched to EAN50 at 21m, however Suunto doesn't like 1.6 at that depth and keeps warning you. Check more detailed images:

If you are planning such dives I recommend you to get a Shearwater dive computer.
Thanks, the link you posted is broken though. My Oceanic OC1 is pretty happy at 1.6 but I try to always plan for no more than 1.4 as a safety margin and the computer is always happy at the partial pressure.

Amazing footage👌🏻
Where and when was this sub lost? Hatches open. Info circumstances?
Andrew Hoffman read above recent comments, someone posted information about the sub from Wiki
How thoughtful was to dive at 50+ meters, having a leak at the left air bottle? Or that third bottle should have solved any issue? Or playing games with own life, is part of the ”adventure”?
Great ! Thank you !
That's the peacefulness of scuba diving.
Awesome dive. You guys just need to check your equipment and do the safety checks. Accidents happen so quickly. Be safe out there...
How many meters is the depth of the dive to the ship?
Indonesia kapal selam KRI 402 RIP.
2021
Enjoyable dive video thanks
Great Vid. Just wondering what the small bubbles coming from the other divers reg a leakage?
Looks like a bad oring, videoer signaled a leak but the other guy didn’t seem worried
En 15:56 se puede notar como el buzo, ve algo que lo incomoda y hace un pequeño sonido,
como de sorpresa o susto, luego dirige su linterna hacia ese sitio dentro del submarino y se ve entre luces y sombras la razón de su sorpresa. Rest in peace.
Good video of a WWII sub, but diving with a camera strapped to ones forehead records a lot of sound and bubbles when diving. A stick is prefered, just watch some of my videos and you'll see what great difference it makes!
No music, other than an Crazy amount of bubbles,'..!
what about your buddies gas leak you guys just ignore that? seems like you might wanna fix that before continuing your dive
I've never gone diving before, is that leak what caused the whistle sound or did I not notice a particular bubble stream?
Gostei muito da filmagem. Principalmente porque não tem música . Muito interessante.
Esse vídeo e americano então ninguém vai te entender
Is this submarine off of Crete? I have never heard of Cephalonia.
Cephalonia, part of the Ionian islands
@@akouris Thanks. I broke out my Med maps and found it.
Wow. What depth, how much bottom time and then decompression?
Wellman, 52 metres (171 ft). Check Wikipedia
There was actually one survivor from this wreck, search for videos on John Capes, unfortunately everyone thought he was a lair at the time of his story and it was only validated after his death to be true.
every time that person breathed out, it felt like they where about to drown
Seems like pretty shallow water for a ship to be operating in. How deep?
40-50m
I would of done this dive on a Rebreather not a leaking twin but good dive was good to watch
With the hatches open, I'm assuming the crew escaped maybe before it sunk?
only 3 of them, and only one made it to land.
This should be made into a great movie
Great dive
is it possible to contact a diving center near there for a tour?
Yes check www.aquatic.gr
Uma pessoa sobreviveu. 3 sobreviveram ao impacto. E uma chegou a superfície. E comentou sua vida toda que conseguiu sair vivo de um submarino afundado. Deus o tenha
What a nice video I like without music
and only want bubble sound.
I subscribe your channel
Video espetacular! Muito legal!
Did anyone see where the open escape hatch is? And the time code. Thx
I have a dream to dive the HM Perseus. I am fascinated with the story. The water seems warm and clear compared to the California coast line. I’m curious if you fly into Kefalonia Island or is it accessible by boat only? Do they have TRIMIX available from the Island or do you bring gas mix and full kit with you?
William Sample You fly to Kefalonia, and spend some time there - beautiful island. There is a very advanced diving center (Aquatic), they have everything, even deco chamber.
akouris thank you very much, I could probably ask you 100 questions as I slowly put my trip plan together. I seriously appreciate you taking the time to respond.
Contact Makis Sotiropoulos @ Aquatic Diving Kefalonia - he will be able to organize everything for you@@williamsample6626
why need the 3 tank?? it is for reserve if the other empty?
In this case by the looks of it id say yes just reserve, but it also gives a redundant air source, in this case 2 fully redundant air source, and in some cases the side mount can be a different mix to either limit or speed up decompression
Nice dive but your friend has leak from his regulator.
Must change the o-ring gaskets as this seems to appear only in first minutes when bottle pressure is high.
on top that others mentioned no pony bottle and squeeky regulator. bit careless imho
