AHAHAHAHA!!!! Good one! *thumbs up*

It takes days, sometime years for the air and fuel oil to leak from a sunken ship. It has been said that divers on such vessels can feel the dying ship shift and settle further into the seabed with each expulsion of trapped air. So, I guess it can be said that the Moskva is now nothing more than a "Nervous Wreck."

(* snerk! *)

Ohhhh that is a lovely bad pun. Oh yes, ships leak fuel for decades. Norway still has a problem with the KMS Blucher in the Oslo Fjord - Sunk in April 1940 - 45 year old Krupp Naval guns and 40 year old Austrian/Hungarian Whitehead torpedos did the trick on a brand new Hipper Class that went were it wasn't invited.

Interesting! I only knew of the USS Arizona which sank into the mud of Pearl Harbor in 1941 after an explosion and fire. The ship went down with the fuel bunkers full and drops of oil would rise to the surface of the water even after several decades have passed.

If I recall correctly, Sailors who served on the Arizona and survived the war have a legend that the oil drops serve as a "Silent Muster." When the last crewman of the Arizona in 1941 passes on, the oil drops will stop rising to the water's surface.

The really fun part is that the Blucher <whinney> was full of SS and Gestapo who were in a hurry to get into Oslo to grab up all the prime office space for the occupation. They still got to where they were going early...

Interesting! Going by Hovard's comment, was it a stroke of luck by the Norwegians, or a secret means of the German Government of the time to get rid of some "Undesirable" officials?

It was an ooooold shore-based torpedo battery in an installation on Oslo Fjord. It was technology so obsolete and antiquated that the Germans hadn't bothered to try to neutralize it, or else they thought there was no way it could still be working.

It was still working.

Oops, they had to change the description on the box!

Brilliant...

So, you joined the hype train, huh?

Actually I made this in response to this. https://www.furaffinity.net/view/46.....#cid:164009427
If that meets your definition then choo choo!

Nah, i just find it plain and not funny - that's all.

Fair enough. Took all of 15 minutes to make so, yea. A few other folks found it humerus so I guess.
