This is a 31 minute video of what it took to raise the Russian Atomic Submarine "Kursk" and it's 100 member crew, after it went down 110 meters to an ocean grave, back in 2000. It's a engineering marvel that they pulled off, involving companies from many countries.

There was a movie about this... https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4951982/

Not sure what it is about planes and submarines that intrigues me so much!?!
