seven miles under-the-sea with director james cameron (in a submersible)

Some people have called this preliminary footage underwhelming. That’s up for debate. Sure, there were no deep-sea behemoths waiting to gobble Cameron up the moment he hit the seafloor, but just think for a second about what you’re seeing here: this video was shot almost seven miles below the ocean surface, and reveals a vast alien landscape (located right here on Earth) that we know almost nothing about.
