Na dubini od oko 150 metara uz norveški otok Fedje već više od osam desetljeća leži olupina njemačke podmornice U-864. Vjeruje se da je prema Japanu prevozila čak 1867 spremnika žive, odnosno potencijalno između 65 i 67 tona tog otrovnog metala. Novi podvodni snimci pokazuju koliko je olupina propala, a Norveška još traži odgovor na ključno pitanje – pokušati izvući opasan teret ili ga trajno zatrpati na morskom dnu
