I watched this footage live with you and it was incredibly crisp & clear. I-201 was in surprisingly good shape. Your maneuvering around the sub was impeccable and respected the vessel properly with care. A piece of history opened up in front of us.
@@JohnSmith-uy7sv These subs are a link to a past that is rapidly disappearing, and after decades underwater they are extremely fragile. The slightest jarring could seriously damage them, but these ROV crews maintained their distance and made sure just to observe, not interact or disturb. These crews ensured that these old subs get the respect they deserve as remnants of a bygone era.

My stepfather torpedoed these subs in Hawaii - I have photos of I-401 as it was going down - I would love to donate the photos in order to have them archived.
To answer the question around 5:45, generally subs of the time had 2 periscopes: the commander's (attack) scope and a navigation scope. The attack scope usually had a smaller profile for lower detection during attacks runs. The navigation scope was usually larger, could collect more light, had a larger FOV, and was better for navigating/observation. I know on many German subs, they could both be used at the same time. Again, I'm speaking generally of many subs of the time as a layman. I am NOT any sort of IJN expert!
Wonderful video! But the footage does not show the hanger deck of the I-400? Or maybe its my aging eyes! The I-400 was the biggest sub in the world at the time & was a Submarine Aircraft carrier. The I -400 was able to carry three Aichi M6A Seiran aircraft underwater to their destinations. Yamamoto wanted to hit the Panama Canal so to slow down all the weapons that the US was bringing to the Pacific. He also considered an attack on the west coast of the United States. I wish the Navy had turned them into museums so we could check em out without having to dive. Too deep for me anyway. Mahalo for your hard work!
They were also reported being sunk to keep them out of the hands of the soviet union, who requested one of the subs as a war prize and the US didn't want them to have the technology as it was the beginning of the cold war
Mahalo for the clarification! Typical me not to read closely that it was the I-401 & not the I-400. The Navy did capture & scuttle a couple of the I-400s off of Pearl Harbor..@@sirboomsalot4902
Awesome,these will look amazing with the new cameras.Look forward to the day when the Super carrier Shinano and the Japanese subs graveyard near Japan are found and detailed in one of your future expeditions.Even 2 underwater photos of this Shinano would double the number photos ever recorded of it.
Given how Pacific war graves are often desecrated by the “salvagers” from certain maritime powers, it would be better for any sunk warship to remain undiscovered and restful til the Final Trumpet sounds and the dead of the seas are called forth again.
6:37 Its not an I, its pronounced how we pronounce 'E' They actually don't have anyhting that sounds like an English i (either way to say, as in Tim, or Time) tim would be pronounced as 'cheemu' and 'time' would be pronounced as 'Taimu', notice neither of these have the I sound used in Tim or Time. For some reason we use "I" to represent the sounds for things like "Ki, Mi, Ri, etc." even though those are pronounced "Kee (as in key), Mee (as in mean), and Ree (as in real) I guess the reason for this is because there are different sounds such as "Ke, Me, Re etc." that would need to use the letter E instead. TLDR: The Japanese language does not have the " i " sound, as in "eye" or "ih" The character is pronounced "E" (saying its name)
It would be i - ni hyaku ichi. イ-２０１ い- にひゃくいち。 Series I, which for Japan is the equivalent to C, because their alphabet goes a e i u o ( あえいうお), if they went alphabetical. But Americans aren't going to pronounce it properly because they're not educated about foreign languages and don't care. ですね。
They would say Tim ティム and it might be spelled weird (ちむ さん timu san) but they'd do their best to say it correctly. That's the point of katakana, pronouncing foreign words. And they wouldn't say time weird, they'd just use their own word for it, jikan じかん。 And i does say eye in words like hai. But yeah for the most part it's ee.
The I401 was the sister ship to the I400. STILL the largest diesel boat was every built still TODAY. the Benjamin Franklin is a nuke. I have all the photos of the I400, I401, I14. all brought back. My dad was the Gunners mate on the I 400. Cable launched.
6:23 That type of chrysanthemum mon is called a kikusui (菊水), meaning "chrysanthemum on water". Why the more common imperial seal chrysanthemum was placed on the bow of a ship, the kikusui was more commonly placed on the funnel.
Awesome pics guys. Amazing seeing how well preserved these subs are considering how long they've been down there. Especially interesting was seeing how well the Rising Sun flag, sub I.D. numbers, and the Chrysanthemum symbol have lasted. Really fantastic work! Cheers from Oz!
At 6:30 chrysanthumem insignia above the I-201 is a Kikusui ( chrysanthemum over flowing water) a design associated with the 14th century samurai Musashige Kusonoki
Pure history! Congratulations on the TH-cam channel,I´m a big fan of the expeditions and also for the content presented. Greetings from Brazil...It´s no the focus,but I´m rooting for the team to go expeditions in the Atlantic Ocean area ,there´s a lot of history to be explored there...
The glass is for when she was on the surfy. It kept the OOD (Officer Of the Deck) and lookouts somewhat dry in rough seas. The torpedo is a "Long Lance" had a hell of a range at the time. It was a LOT better than the Mk14's we were using.
Awesome video, so much history laying down there. Question can a deep sea diver such as the ones that wear those heavy suits, can they reach wreaks like this.?
hi, I'm just a normal diver. No, a person would not be able to dive to this depth even with a specialised suit (or at least not yet, who knows what the future holds?). The max depth here is 755 metres, a person would be crushed under the pressure. IIRC, the max SCUBA depth was something like 285 metres, and that was with specialist technical training and equipment.
@@mknewlan67 Where did they say under water or claustrophobic?? Better read there words again a few more times. Nothing to indicate what there phobia was. Maybe it was a fish phobia or shark phobia? I'm not a mind reader. Plus, they had 2 laughing faces, so it is assumed they were joking. You must observe "ALL" things. not just one or two words. Nice job of being judgemental. I did not call them any names. I was trying to guess what it was. No response. If I say I have phobias, can you guess what they are??? NOPE. Neither did they confess what theirs was. Not my bad.🙄
I'm no expert or technician out on the sea making this happen. I know nothing about the details involved and very every good on the footage accumulated. That being said if not in deep water maybe more shallow has anyone had an idea about having more submersible or a floating gantry suspending light by cables allowing awesome footage even if from only one camera. I do think the britanic would be awesome. Maybe even a submerged frame connected to adjustable cables connected to floats. Be able to change the angle of the light underwater. Again this footage was amazing and thank you
check the channel this was posted to. its all about fish, and coral, and biology. Be grateful for this rare look at these historic subs and keep an open mind, maybe you'll learn something.
Its in such good condition that it could be a good candidate for raising and possible restoration. Well, at least the conning tower. I would it least salvage that
The lack of corrosion may have to do with the lower oxygen concentration in deep water. Salt water won't corrode steel on its own, it needs oxygen to form rust.
I really enjoyed this video and how everyone knew what was what by doing their homework and not having to guess. I wish you could have went to the USS Durham LKA 114 that was sunk off the coast of Hawaii to just a little over 2 years ago in October. I was on it back in 1976-77. It's out their somewhere. The short video is here on youtube also. Thanks for a great video. 😍
What a shame these would be worth millions now just dump it in the sea and let all the oils and toxic chemicals pollute the water. These should of been saved put inside and made a museum such waste
@@YakWithRabies Yeah they purposely scuttled them that is what I am bitching about they would be worth millions now . They could of put crews in there and brought them back to the main land and made museums out of them.
@@madmanmechanic8847 yeah I missed that detail. It is sad but I suppose governments have always done what was most profitable in the short term. To us these are treasures but to the state they are just hunks of metal that they wasted millions on and that sank anyway. It is sad.
@@YakWithRabies Heres a story . They actually built a Sub that had a mini hanger in it with a catapult inside. There was a air plane inside with fold out wings, they would come to the surface open up the hanger on deck fold out the wings and launch the plane off the deck . They covered the Sub in tar so radar would not pick them up. They came to the US out on the Pacific coast opened the door put a bomb on the plane and launched it. The plane dropped a bomb over by Brookings Ore out in the forest came back landed on the water the plane had pontoons on it. They had a crane lifted the plane out of the water folded the wings a and put it back in the hanger it had a clam shell design on the doors. They closed it piolt went back inside and the sub slid out of into the night. When we won the war there were three of these subs and the Japs surrendered themselves and the subs to the US they told this show us how to opperate it and you can go home. And they did . They said it was so advanced and the controls were different than ours the US Navy had trouble understanding the controls. Are you ready for this? THE US WAS AFRAID THE RUSSIANS WOULD GET THEM THEY WENT OUT AND TORPEDOED ALL THREE SUBS AND SUNK THEM ! They found all three in the bottom of the ocean years ago in very bad shape. I was so pissed they were in US Possession no Rusky is going to take them

伊201の状態が想像していたものよりもはるかに良かったですね。
できれば引き上げてUボートのように保存してほしいなと思ってしまいます…
I agree as they never should have sunk them.
Thank you for giving us a great look at two warfighting relics of the past!
The corals on the I-401's big deck gun look like sakura trees in full bloom.

shame they couldnt keep one. would make an amazing museum piece

@@michaelray3865Shinano's too deep to get too
These are very awesome submarines, especially I-401 that is designed to be both a submarine and an aircraft carrier.
The I-400…what a beautiful class of submarine
Super clear and sharp video.
How did this not show up in my feed 10 months ago? Thank you for sharing these videos and your hard work!
Best wishes from North Carolina.
They should have preserved one as a museum ship like the did with u-505
6:37
Its not an I, its pronounced how we pronounce 'E'
They actually don't have anyhting that sounds like an English i (either way to say, as in Tim, or Time) tim would be pronounced as 'cheemu' and 'time' would be pronounced as 'Taimu', notice neither of these have the I sound used in Tim or Time.
For some reason we use "I" to represent the sounds for things like "Ki, Mi, Ri, etc." even though those are pronounced "Kee (as in key), Mee (as in mean), and Ree (as in real)
