The Battle of May Island | Down the Rabbit Hole
During World War I, the United Kingdom's Navy sent a battle group to intercept potential German U-Boats (submarines). What followed were a series of tragic events that culminated in one of the saddest (and virtually unheard of) disasters the Royal Navy ever.

We are taken, step by step, through a terrible tragedy. As we go deeper and deeper into the events of that fateful night, one can't help but think of all the ways something like this could have been prevented. From the disasterous retrograde design of the submarines all the way to the handling of the investigation. Several times through the story, I thought to myself - "it can't get any worse now". Boy, was I wrong...
