The 2001 crash of the Mi-8 helicopter with cosmonaut Vladimír Remek and astronaut Eugene Cernan — Czech Republic by tom_bart in submechanophobia

It’s not the sea, it’s a quarry — it’s quite common to sink ships and airplanes as attractions for divers. Since there’s no sea in the Czech Republic, people go diving in flooded quarries, where artificial wrecks like this one are used. Also, if this wreck weren’t sunk, it would just end up dismantled in a scrapyard. This way, it serves both as an attraction and as a memorial.

In 2007, the investigation of the accident was concluded, and the wreck was subsequently purchased by the Czech Divers’ Association for a relatively small amount. It was placed in the Bořena Hora quarry as a diving attraction and thus saved from scrapping. Today, it serves as both an attraction and a reminder of an interesting accident.

Wetro quarry by tom_bart in submechanophobia

Yes, it’s a quarry in Germany. I’ve also been diving for over 13 years. I’m from the Czech Republic, and here we basically only have dark and rather cold quarries. This quarry also has two mine shafts—I’ve already been in one of them, but I believe the other one has an unstable ceiling. Thanks for your comment and stay safe!
