Update: Here’s a closer look at the two guys stuck on board the ship and how they escaped.
The former flagship of the Yugoslav Navy was scuttled in Croatia’s Polje Bay in spectacular fashion over the weekend where it will now serve as a dive attraction.
Thousands were on hand to witness the event, which went off without a hitch. That is unless you consider the two guys who were still on board when the explosions went off!
Luckily boats in the area raced to save the men as the ship sank quickly. They survived, but man it was close.
