What Exists in the Deepest Place on Earth? | Mariana Trench
Dive 36,000 feet into the Mariana Trench, the most unforgiving abyss on Earth. Discover the terrifying reality and bizarre deep-sea creatures hiding in the pitch black.
For decades, scientists believed the deepest parts of our oceans were dead zones, crushed by unimaginable hydrostatic pressure. Yet, deep-sea expeditions have revealed a thriving, alien-like ecosystem that defies the known laws of biology. From the transparent-headed Barreleye fish and giant single-celled Xenophyophores to unexplained acoustic anomalies echoing through the Hadal zone, the deep ocean is full of dark secrets. Discover how life miraculously survives at 16,000 psi, and the unsettling, man-made truth explorers found resting at the very bottom of the world.
