Exploring the Prinz Eugen (Webisode 10) Back to Webisodes »

Summary

Once the pride of the German Navy, this 700 foot long heavy cruiser was used by the U.S. as a test target for not one but two atom bombs at Bikini atoll.  Today, at the bottom of the ocean, the radiation levels of the Prinz Eugen are low enough for safe exploration.  Jonathan joins historian Mark Miller on a trip to explore this mysterious shipwreck.  What they find about the condition of this wreck is surprising.
