Hurd Deep in the English Channel is 172 m its deepest. Beaufort Dyke,
in the North Channel is between 200 and 300 m deep.

And Beaufort Dyke was the repository for a non-trivial quantity of
discarded munitions. Might not be a good idea to disturb it.


Isn't Hurd deep where Bomber Command aircraft dumped any bombs they
hadn't dropped on target?

Yes, and where Glenn Miller lost his life when his plane was hit by one of
them.


Alledgedly, another story is that it was a cover up because he died of a
heart attack while in bed with a prostitute.
