I love stories like this. Shipwrecks that have long been lost forever, now newly discovered. The wooden ship Endurance was sailing in the ice waters of Antarctica when it was crushed by ice and sunk. 107 years later the ship was discovered in 10,000 feet of water. To the good fortune of researchers looking for the ship, the icy cold water helped the Endurance remain in remarkably well preserved condition. See more pictures and get the story here.
