I have done some research and found a couple of my own interesting finds (below). Have you found any…?
Cliff Burton’s Crash Site
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cliff_Burton#Death
While on their European tour, Burton and Kirk Hammett randomly picked from a deck of cards to see who would get the top bunk on the bus. Burton pulled the Ace of Spades sealing his “victory,” and so he chose to sleep on Kirk Hammett’s bed, as Hammett recalls on MTV’s 1992 Bio of the band as well as in the VH1 show “Behind the Music”. Burton died when the band’s tour bus hit black ice (though it is still disputed that they may have crashed because the driver may have been drinking) and flipped over in rural Sweden. As the bus was skidding out of control and eventually rolled over on the grass, Burton fell out of a window, and was crushed by the bus. It is unknown whether Burton was still alive at this point. He was crushed again when the winch cable lifting the bus off him snapped, dropping the bus on him a second time. The other people on the bus recount seeing Burton’s feet sticking out from under the bus.

Theodor Eicke’s Crash Site:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theodor_Eicke#SS-Totenkopfverb.C3.A4nde
Theodor Eicke himself was killed on February 26, 1943; shortly after being promoted to SS-Obergruppenführer (equivalent to full general). While performing a battlefield reconnaissance during the opening stages of the Third Battle of Kharkov, his Fi-196 Storch was shot down by Soviet troops near Oryol. His division launched a ferocious attack to secure the crash site and recover their commander’s body. Eicke was portrayed in the Axis press as a hero, and soon after his death one of the Totenkopf’s Infantry regiments received the honorific cuff-title Theodor Eicke.

For some reason there’s a random square of high definition off the coast of Guinea-Bissau. I haven’t found any others out there.
It fascinates me. There are a few boats in there but nothing else of interest.
I’ve scanned coast lines hoping to find whales but no luck.
I found, after long minute of searching, some remains of the Aqua Claudia just South-East of Rome. It is a kilometre long section where you can see the shadows of the arches against a farmers field. I’ve promised myself that when I visit Rome I’ll spend a night on top of one of those arches.
