U-Boat Parodies are a spin-off from the popular Downfall parodies created by HitchcockJohn centered around the crew of a German submarine. They are created in a similar style to the Hitler or Stalin Parodies in that they are based largely around false subtitles. Other parodies were made by members of Subsim.com, as a comedic means of complaining about issues in the Silent Hunter series of WWII submarine simulators.
