Description

In April 1945, German U-boat U-1206 was lost without being hit by a torpedo or depth charge. A malfunction involving its high-pressure toilet forced the submarine to surface in daylight, where a British aircraft attacked it. This is the bizarre true story of U-1206, its doomed crew, and one of WWII's strangest submarine disasters. Disclaimer: This video is based on historical records and research. Some details surrounding U-1206's loss remain debated. Hashtags: #WW2, #WWII, #UBoat, #U1206, #WW2History, #MilitaryHistory
