This WWII Wreck Is Still Off Limits — And It’s Dangerous

This WWII Wreck Is Still Off Limits — And It’s Dangerous
From the surface, this stretch of sea appears calm and unremarkable.
But beneath it lies a WWII shipwreck that remains strictly off limits—not because of secrecy or legend, but because it is still genuinely dangerous.

Long after the war ended, authorities made a rare decision: leave this wreck exactly where it is.
Intervening—whether through recovery, exploration, or salvage—was determined to pose risks far greater than leaving it untouched.

This film follows a controlled deep-sea descent to a wreck frozen in time, examining why certain WWII wrecks are deliberately restricted, and how unstable cargo, unexploded munitions, and environmental hazards can turn history into an ongoing threat.

The wreck featured is the SS Port Napier, a British WWII-era cargo vessel lost off the coast of Scotland in 1940 while carrying a highly dangerous military payload.
Its identity matters—but the real reason it remains off limits matters far more.
