Elements of the Colombian Navy found a submarine loaded with huge quantities of drugs estimated to be worth about $88 million.

Two bodies were also found inside the submarine, and two other people on board were rescued.

The Colombian Navy confiscated the 14-meter-long submarine in the Pacific Ocean, which was carrying 2.6 tons of cocaine.

The New York Post commented on the video, saying, "It's like a scene from the American-Colombian series 'Narcos' which tells a story about the drug world."

The Colombian Ministry of Defense also suspected that toxic gases generated from the fuel caused the death and injury of those on board.
