Scuba diving in New York City? "Fugeddaboudit!"

Over three centuries of shipping traffic in and out of New York have resulted in hundreds of shipwrecks off the coast of Long Island and New Jersey. These boats were the casualties of bad weather, heavy fog, fatal collisions, and even German U-Boat attacks during World Wars I and II. Their final resting place is known as "Wreck Valley," and local divers love to see what artifacts they can dig up from this sunken ship graveyard. Vocativ correspondent Mariah Wilson puts on a scuba tank and joins these adventurous explorers in the chilly mid-Atlantic waters.
