great nova program about the yamato's tech. lots of good underwater shots. a little weak on the melodrama, the story is strong enough without it. a must see for the buffs. that wreck is a wreck....that ship was damaged far beyond the bismark. what was it, 20 bombs, 18 torpedos?
Yeah, and one magazine :lol:
actually, research on the hull showed 3 magazine explosions. apparently the capasize and increased pressure caused spontaneous ignition. you already know she's in two big chnks, right? what was funny was watching one of the mirs in a turret tunnel. it was almost lost in that huge whole; it looked like a toy. that was one amazing ship, still futuristic looking in the secondary turrets. what were there, 3000 guys entombed? many were sealed in alive by other crewman desperately trying to save the ship. and the japanese had all those stories of the men commiting hari kari to cheat the reaper....uh, sure they did.
