I don't know of any that got stuck on bottom and suffocated, I guess we would assume they were destroyed by DCs. I know of several that got stuck on bottom and had to go through a lot of rocking and rolling and shifting engines to get free. Oh how I wish we could and that we could move ballast around and selectively blow certain ballast tanks. Now that would rock.
