When a wreck is flattened by dynamite, it means that explosives are used to deliberately destroy the structure of the wreck, reducing it to a flattened or fragmented state. This action is typically taken as a measure to remove hazards or obstacles in navigable waters or to clear a wreck from an area. The use of dynamite can break apart the wreck and disperse the debris, making it less obstructive or hazardous. However, it should be noted that intentionally destroying wrecks with dynamite is a highly regulated practice and is only carried out under specific circumstances and with proper authorization to ensure safety and environmental considerations are taken into account.
