For 70 years, the sudden sinking of the mighty British ship Britannic - larger than the sister ship Titanic - has been shrouded in mystery. Jacques Cousteau reveals the full story of November 21, 1916 when, on her sixth journey as a hospital ship, Britannic exploded and sank into the Aegean Sea. With recollections of a survivor, then a young nurse. Cousteau and crew uncover whether the vessel was mined or torpedoed, if it secretly carried British troops and how a single mine or torpedo could sink a supposedly impregnable ship.
