Believe it or not!
25,000 days under the sea... still alive and kicking!
Hollander, a German World War I submarine, sank near the Eddystone Lighthouse in 1913. For the next 69 years, the submarine remained submerged underwater, until 1982 when it was taken to the H.N. Submarine Museum in England.
When inspected, to everyone's surprise, the submarine's battery (fitted in 1908) appeared in good condition! Technicians who examined it found that the cells still produced current. For a 74 year old battery (69 of which were spent under the ocean) this was a tribute to its manufacturers.
