Actually, the ocean is very, very deep. It is deeper than we can imagine. If we crushed all the mountains, islands and rugosities of the earth and filled a deep pit in the ocean, then the water level would rise and cover the entire planet with a thick layer of 5 meters.
40m
It is the maximum depth to which it is allowed to dive during an underwater diving excursion.
93m
A little further down is the place, where the British ship "Lusitania" was found, which was shipwrecked in 1915. An interesting fact: the length of the ship is 240 meters and this means that if we put it aft, a greater part It will be on the surface of the water.
100m
Diving at a depth of 100 meters can be deadly dangerous, because decompression syndrome begins at this depth.
214m
But the danger did not stop the human being named Herbert Nitsch, who set a record by diving 214 meters deep and without diving equipment. His legs and head were tied with heavy objects so that the diving was quite fast.
250m
At such depth the German submarines swam during the Second World War.
332m
We will descend more. Here Ahmed Gabr set another diving record, but this time with diving equipment.
500m
The maximum depth to which the blue whale can be: the highest creature on the planet. This is also the depth at which a nuclear submarine can be safely submerged.
535m
The maximum depth to which an emperor penguin can dive.
750m
Here you can find the giant octopus, which knows how to change the color of its skin to red when it is annoying.
828m
At this depth we could reach the bolt of the overturned tower of Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world.
1000m
The light of the surface can not reach this point, that's why it is completely dark below. The pressure is the same as if we were on the surface of Venus, that is, it would crush us quickly. Here also begins the habitat area of giant squid.
1280m
The maximum depth at which the giant leatherback turtle can be submerged. She can be underwater for 85 minutes.
2250m
At this depth sperm whales hunt giant squids. From such battles sperm whales often have scars.
3800m
Here is the "Titanic". The ship, which ... well, you already know the story perfectly.
4000m
The abyssal zone. Here they live terrifying animals, such as chiasmodontids, bathypterois and lophius.
4267m
It is the average depth of the whole ocean, that's why here you can find the bottom. But we go down to the pit, and it means that the bottom is still far away.
6000m
We are in the hadal zone, named after the god of the lower world of the dead, Hades, or as they also call it, Aida. The pressure here is like 50 Boeing 747 passenger planes, which are on top of your head.
6500m
It is the maximum depth to which the Alvin DSV device was subjected, which is the submarine to investigate, which helped find the "Titanic".
6762m
Here is the SS Rio Grande, the ship that sank during the Second World War. It is considered the sunken ship to the greatest depth in the world.
8848m
Here we would reach the top of Everest turned around.
10898m
The depth to which director James Cameron submerged in 2012. The submersion lasted 3 hours during which the director observed a completely dark world around him and carried the inflammation in 3D. Cameron was the third person who risked submerging at a depth of 11 kilometers and the first he did alone.
10916m
The depth to which Jacques Piccard and Don Walsh dived in 1960. They did the submersion and they were there for about 20 minutes, after the glasses of the submarine began to tremble, they had to climb. This submersion lasted 5 hours.
10994m
We reach the abyss of Challenge, which is considered to be the deepest of all the deepest points studied on our planet.
? m
However, we know that the ocean depths have been studied less than the surface of Mars, only 5%. Therefore, as many scientists believe, there are deeper places in the abyss and only nature knows that it is hidden at this depth.
