Beyond the abyss
This is pretty cool IMO
BBC News - Meet the creatures that live beyond the abyss
Amazing to think that we have discovered more of the moon than the bottom of our oceans !?!

Its a fascinating subject, incredible that any living thing can withstand the enormous pressure of the water at those depths too.
Those bloke were very brave to go to those depths 50 years ago.

The thing is, you look at the photos of the things living down there, and they don't look so "tough" in the grand scheme of things, in fact they mostly look like pretty normal creatures.
I cant work out how such a fragile looking fish, can swim about like nothing is wrong yet its under huge constant pressure
