Today (August 20) marks the 79th anniversary of the UK's most dangerous shipwreck - Thames 'bomb ship' SS Richard Montgomery - sinking 1.5 miles off Sheerness in Kent.

The doomed WWII American Liberty cargo ship sank with 1400 tons of explosives onboard on this day back in 1944.

The UK Gov have had to delay the planned removal of the shipwreck's three masts due to technical issues.

Footage shows the three masts of the ship at low tide this morning - filmed from three angles from the shore - with several yachts seen sailing close by.
