This is not the Tirpitz as it no longer exists. It was sunk in Norway in 1944 where it remained until after the war. Salvage operations lasting from 1948 through 1957 completely removed the sunken ship in parts. The only thing that remains is minor debris on the beach and surrounding area. The Tirpitz is no more. My guess is that this is an Italian ship sunk by the British at an Italian naval base if it is truly in San Remo.
+Hocking1973 Hey:) Yeah, this isnt near what Tirpitz looks like today. Over 70% and up of the hull was removed and scraped and re-used by the germans during WW2. Today there is still hundred of tonnes of debree and scrap laying on the seabed. The Tirpitz wreck where is it today is protected, no diving allowed.
EdmundGerber What was he supposed to name it? This is a ship named Tirpitz he’s diving. Everyone knows the wreck of the German battleship was scrapped in the late 40s and early 50s
The Tirpitz was sunk by the RAF in 1944 in Tromso Fjord off the island of Haakoy. Been there, it has been salvaged but you can find pieces all over the beach on Haakoy and there is a monument left there that is a piece of the steel plating of the Tirpitz with a plaque in English, German and Norwegian. They used Tallboy bombs and left a couple of big "ponds" on the island where a couple of bombs had missed.
Das da ist offensichtlich ein Frachtschiff. Zweitens wurde die einsame Königin des Nordens,so wurde sie von den Briten genannt in Im Fjord von Tromsö versenkt!
She never did sink, she was although "Effectively" sunk, she was capsized. in 1948, a West german, American and british team broke her up and sold her for scrap metal.
The battle ship tirpitz sunk in shallow water in Norway and was half out of the water at the end of the war she was scrapped by a Norwegian company and took a couple of years to do.
Carl Fitzpatrick: You are right.Thats the truth.This is a fake video,it is not the DKM Tirpitz.The Tirpitz was scrapped in Tromsø Norway after it was bombed from the Royal Airforce.But they used some of the Krupp Steel of the Tirpitz in the local area of the place where she was scrapped and there is a museum etc.But small pieces of the Ship are still on the ground,no big ones as far as I know.
@Scotishirony This La Tirpitz that where sunk by a torpedo in the mediterian ocean. The tirpitz you are talking about is the battleship Tirpitz that where sunk by an airraid in Norway
Correction: Tirpitz is located next to the island at Hâkoya, Norway but you can't see it on Google Earth cause the tall boi bombs nuked the ground under the ship so it sunk deeper than expected
Lol, they would have a had a fun time hitting this beast "actual Turpitz" if it werent docked. Amazing that it took 15 direct hits from bombs that were just thought of/invented months or even days before the attack. Bombs that cuased artifical earthquakes, what a beast of a ship... Aw inspiring POWA.
Did I hear him say "This is not the battleship" the Battleship Kms Tirpitz was destroyed by a tall boy yes , but this is "A cargo freighter" that could as well been destroyed by a mine
They should do an actual real life documentary on the Tirpitz, just like James Cameron did with the Battleship Bismarck Expedition!! Also like Paul G. Allen did with the Battleship Musashi Expedition. That would really be nice to watch!!
At 1:05 there appears to be a generous amount of penetrating surface light. The description states (278 feet) of depth. I'm not a diver but anyone who is can ans: Does sunlight penetrate to 278 feet in the ocean, with the numerous natural chemicals found in the ocean + the organic and microscopic particles ??
@HerzogKraut The Tirpitz was not destroyed by a mine. It was destroyed by a bomb (dropped) called a Tall Boy from the British Air Fleet. Get your facts straight.
i knew the second i saw the title it was fake. first of all, tirpitz sunk in norway, not italy. and second of all somewhere in the 50’s the wreckage got scrapped
Answer no. xxx. This is ANOTHER ship called TIRPITZ and I shown the image immediately just to avoid any kind of mistakes with the BATTLESHIP called TIRPITZ. Are you blind or what else?
The X craft did indeed heavily damage the battleship with two mines placed directly beneath it after much tribulation getting under the damned thing in the first place. What's more intense is the crew of the Xcraft were captured and taken aboard the Tirpitz moments before their own bombs detonated. They did the British thing to do and politely explained to the Germans that there was a bomb under the ship which gave them just enough time to warm up the engines and try to evade which is what saved the captives they got lucky and were on the side of the ship that didn't explode. This is not what sank the Tirpitz though nor was it the first attempt by midget subs to sneak up on her, Should read about the scottish froggmen in diving suits who disguised a midget sub carrier as a fishing trawler to ride little manned torpedoes called "chariots" up through the fjord Tirpitz was moored. Didn't actually work as they lost both midget subs in a storm before they ever got to their destination but it is still a fascinating piece of hardware to google. But no it was definitely the RAF dropping "Tall Boys" hitting her twice that capsized her. Tirpitz rolled over so hard and violently she burried most of her superstructure in the mud, I think the Tall Boy AkA Earthquake bomb was specifically designed with Tirpitz in mind as previous bombing runs did nothing to her armoured deck hence the multiple failed attempts to hit her from bellow.
Wasn't the two gun turrets a big disadvantage? A comparable British BB could fire a 9 shell broadside, vs. Turpitz' 6 guns. these ships also had smaller crews and more limited range. The real reason what it spent so much time hiding in a fjord was the threat of british submarines.
The Tirpitz had 8 guns not 6. They were placed in 4 turrets. ie 4 sets of 2 guns. And the reason she was in the fjords was to threaten the artic convoys. Britsh subs really never did that much to her, except the midget subs. As for crew and range, she was about evenly match with her British counterparts.
+Ad Mirer right the twin gun turrets have at least 33 percent less power than the tripple turrets, so the tripples are much better, advantage Iowa Class + nelson battle ship yes if the would use the tirpitz similar like bismarck so they also would lose the tirpitz on the same way like bismarck just throughout the bombers, they would make the job, the Tirpitz had bad AA and submarine technology otherwise Battleships are very easy targets, play world of warships one single BB is a very easy heap of scrap easy to hit by any weapon these outdated battleships like tirpitz you can only really hide somewhere or scrap it instantly or put high effective weapons inside, like Iowa class BBs by the way planes are much more effective than ships at all except aircraft carriers yes the tirpitz had no submarine detection devices and was low of fuel so it was completely senseless to build these type of ships
reload time of the 2 gun turrets was faster- weight only half- and weight of a broadside per minute was the same and dont forget the better constructed shells..
Can you actually read? He says the CARGOSHIP named Tirpitz was destroyed in 1942 by a mine. Cargoship, not battleship. Get your readingskills straight.
in the video, just to avoid any misunderstanding, you have the picture of the CARGO ship sunk in second world war named Tirpitz (the BATTLESHIP Tirpitz sunk in Norway, not in Italy).
i had a teacher last year art teacher he told me that one of his friends found and took a old german machinegun home and well like me and my teacer he whas swedish and dident get aressted becuse they dident care about old scrap mg43s
the Tirpitz was destroyed by three tall boy British bombs in Norway in 1944 the Tirpitz and her sister ship bizmark were the biggest ships of the war until the Iowa class battleships were made the Iowa and the Missouri then became the biggest then after the war we found out from japan that the ijn yamato was the biggest battleship of the entire war. It took an entire day of bombing raids before we actually sank the yamato what dealt the final blow was the Japanese them selves they blew the ship in half with the remaining fuel and ammo cartiges they had left.
tirpitz sunk in norway not in italy.....
And it was a German capital ship in ww2, not an ocean liner show in their picture.
@@brycebeauparlant2019 exactly. This is a different ship with the same name.
Exactly ...

The main body of the tirpitz still remains where it was destroyed
actually most the ship is still there read as least 10 different sources before commenting
Rename your video - obviously we're going to think this is former German battleship. Thumbs down for vagueness...
EdmundGerber What was he supposed to name it? This is a ship named Tirpitz he’s diving. Everyone knows the wreck of the German battleship was scrapped in the late 40s and early 50s
Sir Boomsalot in the description he calls it a German battleship you fucking idiot
THIS IS THE WRONG WRECK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think everybodey who clicked at the video thaught its the battleship tirpitz wreck
yea
The battleship tirpitz is scrapped, well almost

Terpitz sank in Norway !!!
yes. in tromsø! i live there so i know it good
yes. in tromsø! i live there so i know it good
tirpitz sank in norway if u mean ww2 battleship
Tirpitz was salvaged for scrap after the war wasn't she?
Yeah I thought all that was pretty much left was the remains of the platform/rig that they used to break her up with/from.
She never did sink, she was although "Effectively" sunk, she was capsized. in 1948, a West german, American and british team broke her up and sold her for scrap metal.
not completely

@@J.A.Hansen I was in that area when I was in the US navy our ship pulled into port near there in 1991
@Scotishirony This La Tirpitz that where sunk by a torpedo in the mediterian ocean. The tirpitz you are talking about is the battleship Tirpitz that where sunk by an airraid in Norway
Read the guy's comment again, he wasn't talking about the battleship Tirpitz, he was talking about the passenger of the same namesake.
so bekommt man auch seine klicks :-(((
She sunk in altafjord, (i think)
Or somewhere in norway, Not in italy
Correction: Tirpitz is located next to the island at Hâkoya, Norway but you can't see it on Google Earth cause the tall boi bombs nuked the ground under the ship so it sunk deeper than expected

How is this the turpitz when it was not only sank in Italy but also dismantled for scrap?
This isn’t the Tirpitz. It is in Norway just under 6 to 10 feet of water and very little remains of it. Most was scrapped.
They should do an actual real life documentary on the Tirpitz, just like James Cameron did with the Battleship Bismarck Expedition!! Also like Paul G. Allen did with the Battleship Musashi Expedition. That would really be nice to watch!!
There is a documentary for it.

Super late reply, but yes.
This is not a battleship and it’s also not in Norway where the terpins number of sake
c´est trés beau
anyone know the name of the audio for this vid?

Tirpitz sunk in Norway and was dismantled there's barely anything left of the ship sadly...
The tirpitz was scrapped so it's impossible to dive at it....
@Scotishirony I thought it was damagd by british mini subs called X-1 - X5
The X craft did indeed heavily damage the battleship with two mines placed directly beneath it after much tribulation getting under the damned thing in the first place.

This isn't the Bismarck-class battleship that I know and love. What is this?
It's cargo (exactly as shown in the picture at the beginning of the video). www.lariosub.com/-tirpitz-ii--san-remo--im-.html
Este es otro barco, llamado TIRPITZ, pero NO el ACORAZADO que fue hundido en un fiordo de Noruega.
Do you just name a shipwreck whatever strikes your fancy or is this a mistake?
It`s the Britannic wreck in Greece, but who cares?

+Ad Mirer right the twin gun turrets have at least 33 percent less power than the tripple turrets, so the tripples are much better, advantage Iowa Class + nelson battle ship

these outdated battleships like tirpitz you can only really hide somewhere or scrap it instantly or put high effective weapons inside, like Iowa class BBs

It's black and it's going backwards in the revolutionary tree. About sums it up there...
I thought the tirpitz was totally scrapped
nice vid.
WTF?! I thought This would be the remains of the German battleship.
Johnny cade I believe it was the admiral Graf spee.
Can you actually read? He says the CARGOSHIP named Tirpitz was destroyed in 1942 by a mine. Cargoship, not battleship. Get your readingskills straight.
Funny thing is the real wreck of the German battleship Tirpitz was salvaged and broken up. So there is no wreck anyway
This is a cargo ship - not a battle ship. Are you blind or what else?
The comments say its a different wreck
and no i'm not blind
in the video, just to avoid any misunderstanding, you have the picture of the CARGO ship sunk in second world war named Tirpitz (the BATTLESHIP Tirpitz sunk in Norway, not in Italy).
Correct Trevor. It's a cargo freighter sunk in 1942. Nothing more than that and not particularly interesting. Rgds. Alex
urmmm! the tirpitz wasnt sunk in italy it was sunk in norway??
I find this video very interesting and pretty cool :)
To deep to be Turpitz. sunk in Norway not Italy
but where is Battleship tirpitz vid!!!!
i had a teacher last year art teacher he told me that one of his friends found and took a old german machinegun home and well like me and my teacer he whas swedish
and dident get aressted becuse they dident care about old scrap mg43s
whats the point of spending thousands of dollors to visit a scraped ship thats up side down in murkey water visit a better ship say scapa flow
Um i thuaght the tirpitz did not sink by the way is sank in norway 🇳🇴
you're right it capsized and was salvaged for low background steel a long time ago.
Actually several bombs.
wot's the name of the music anyine know?
What's this crap? Tirpitz was sunk near Tromso in Norway....
Nice one on fooling the viewers. The Tirpitz was sunk in Norway and was salvaged after the war.
Read what he said again.
He have right
And you have left?
DAS IST NICHT DIE TIRPITZ!!!!
Uh think u got the wrong ship
no!!! sunk
All fake; Not the wreck of Tirptz.
It's not the tirpitz and your f music is too loud
Tripitz did not sunk in italy fake video
Terrible music. Completely inappropriate.
What the Fuck is the awful noise?
the Tirpitz was destroyed by three tall boy British bombs in Norway in 1944 the Tirpitz and her sister ship bizmark were the biggest ships of the war until the Iowa class battleships were made the Iowa and the Missouri then became the biggest then after the war we found out from japan that the ijn yamato was the biggest battleship of the entire war. It took an entire day of bombing raids before we actually sank the yamato what dealt the final blow was the Japanese them selves they blew the ship in half with the remaining fuel and ammo cartiges they had left.
Have you heard of punctuation?
Nop.
Biggest ships in WW2 Ranking:
1. Yamato
2. Tirpitz
3. Bismarck
+Flashlight what are you on about?
SuperBobbster I corrected Loy Vandiver
the largest battleship in the American fleet was the uss wisconsin another Iowa class battleship, and it's bismarck not bizmark
Clickbait !!
Crap
exactly as you
