Wreck of the Bismarck
Germany's battleship Bismarck sank the British battlecruiser Hood in May 1941 and was hunted down three days later. On 27 May 1941, crippled by British gunfire, she was scuttled and sank with most of her crew of over 2,200. Robert Ballard found the wreck in 1989, 4,791 metres down.
