Shipwrecks of the Northern Egyptian Red Sea

The northern Red Sea is the resting ground for some of the most historic shipwrecks in the world. This video captures three of them: the Rosalie Moller, Gianis D and the world famous SS Thistlegorm. The SS Thistlegorm was a British steamship that was carrying supplies to British troops in northern Africa. It was bombed by German aircraft and broke in half when she sunk. The stern lies in 105 feet (32 meters) of water. The ship is largely intact except for the actual bomb impact zone. The cargo hold, which you will see in the video, is like swimming into a time capsule. Here you can see Mark II Ben carrier tanks, Bedford trucks, Bren guns, Norton motorcycles and even pairs of Wellington boots if you look carefully. Thanks for watching my video ....
