SHO So who has ever had a Holy 'holy mother of god!' Moment?

I very recently had a 'holy mother of god!' moment recently. Okay so I was plane dodging again off the coast of Japan well I popped up to see if it was safe to be on the surface and well the following happened. Well got a screenshot but its way to big.

Long story short I detected around twenty planes milling about within a forty kilometer radius of me. I naturally dove down deep and didn't come back up till I was near Midway Island.

I believe he' s just joking and exagerating the situation
But could as well be that he had unlimited batteries and Co2 active
Just guesses though

The irony is that in Silent Hunter planes are not a danger at all and are easily dealt with. They're almost boring to encounter as an entirely harmless and routine matter.

I attacked a port at periscope depth (not more possible), I see 2 Bettys passing me, I continue the attack on the port and then without warning 2 torpedos passing right over my sub not more than 3 feet over my deck. I was totally shocked...
