What is this, the thread of disappointment?
wtf!
Can someone post or link to the picture from the other day, that showed how deep this really was? It's an amazing feat, but the video is a bit boring & turns into an ad -the naysayers need convincing with that picture.
that showed how deep this really was?
10971m.
~1100bar of pressure.
Just about to ship some equipment to the states that has been built to go to the bottom of the Marianas trench.

Woah!. Deeeeeeeeeep.
The Burj Khalifa is actually higher than most [s]mountains[/s] hills in the UK. 😮

Yeah I like mad mind-boggling stuff.
I don't like the look of them ugly fish though. I'd punch them if they tried giving it.
helps appreciate how hard it must have been to plug that oil leak with a bell thingy dangling on a rope from the surface
