The uboat started to sink and go quite deep, 250\260 m. At once I heard the pressure hull cracking and bolts failing. I increased speed and released compressed air, but we did not make it.

Been there leg....nothing worse.....there is an option for neutral bouyancy...so depth keeping isn't an issue...but it is cheating somewhat
