Fascinating stuff. I'm amazed that anyone could dive to nearly 1000ft. Don't think I'd have much faith in that sub, sounds like it was made in someone's garage in their spare time ☹️

I found this while reading a thread about the missing submarine.
It’s a great look at the depth of the ocean and what creatures reside at the varying depths.

Thanks for posting that - absolutely mind-blowing!
The Orange Roughy can live to a staggering two hundred years, wow!
The Hadal zone (I forgot the correct spelling).. more people have been to the moon than to this depth of the ocean.
Those two guys in that submarine, who went to such a depth, that few living creatures can survive... amazing courage!
Brilliant watch. I can almost understand how fish etc can survive those depths but i have no idea how mammals can. You'd think the pressure would crush their lungs.
I think it's fascinating
But as for going down to the depths
Or wild water swimming
Or getting into a cage and watching great whites off northern california ?
Naa
You are still watching through a window.
Might as well watch on a huge HD telly.
I just don't get the hype.
RIP.
Saw plenty of the Titanic via video when I went to Belfast.
i get why rich people, bored with the mundane, want to explore. Everest, Antartica, the moon, the depths of the ocean. but at least get in a proper submarine. couldnt pay me 250k to get in that thing. Its obviously a shame, for their families. but these guys clearly didnt care if they lived or died so we shouldnt either.
the contrast in coverage of some rich guys V migrants death at sea is a stark one also.
Im not even sure these subs that go down to the depths have windows due to pressurization. Its one big solid tube and all the viewing is done from an external camera with an internal monitor. So yeah effectively your watching on a big screen as you say which begs the question whats the point of going down there when a robot submersible can go down and beam the footage back to the ship up above.
