A narco submarine containing an astonishing £72million of cocaine and two dead bodies has been discovered off Colombia.

The Colombian Navy seized the 49ft-long vessel - which had more than 2.6 tons of cocaine on board - in the Pacific Ocean.

When searching the submarine on Sunday, authorities also found two survivors who were given life-saving medical attention on a nearby ship.

Video footage has captured the moment that officers unload the submarine, laying out a substantial amount of cocaine they had seized.

It’s pretty obvious what those semi submersible’s are. I don’t know why we don’t sink them on sight. No one legitimate has them.

Probably. The article mentions toxic gas.

No need for a submarine delivery, plenty of cocoa leaves in their mountains.

“...that the two crew who died may have been killed by toxic gas inhalation.”

£72 million in cocaine? I know what I’d be inhaling...

Nothing mysterious about it - it is scummy cartel drug runners delivering their "product" via a defective submarine. I guess that is too hard for the Daily Mail to figure out, though.

Maybe they should not eat Mexican food before a sub trip.

Submarine...ha!

It is a boat that rides low in the water to avoid surface radar. Big whoop.

You want a sub? Let me tell you about what was built in South Florida in the 80’s and 90’s to ferry back and forth from the Bahama’s to Florida.

They were sloooow, but had both diesel and electric engines. Some had solar panels in case the batteries died. They could submerge to about 200 feet with no problem, but a lot of the way the water is 600+ deep, so it was a little nerve wracking. Scuba tanks provided air for breathing and buoyancy. The tubes themselves were crisscrossed with reinforcement rods which made moving around inside a challenge.

I knew of three in operation and saw two and “sailed” in one. I didn’t make a full crossing, just a nighttime cruise to a couple of miles offshore and back. Scary as crap. Thought I was gonna die.
