I have had my run ins with mines. They are quite real and the death you reported in your post sounds very much like a mine strike, though generaly they are set deep eunf that you have be be submerged befor they are any real threat to you, parascope depth or better. I have found them in port at Scapa and one time in the Chanel not far from shore while exfiltrating from a port attack I had conducted.
