0:51Now PlayingAfter more than 25 years of searching, a veteran diver specializing in finding sunken ships has uncovered the location of the HMS Triumph, a World War II British submarine that disappeared in 1942.
Kostas Thoctarides, a renowned Greek diver, and his team located the wreck of the missing submarine at around 670 feet in the Aegean Sea.
Describing the search as “the hardest mission I have ever undertaken in my life,” Thoctarides shared photos and video on social media of the submerged 84-meter T-class submarine, which vanished during a mission against the Axis Powers in January 1942.

Thoctarides told state news agency ANA that the submarine’s periscopes and hatches were all down, revealing that the vessel was in deep dive during its final moments.
