[FrenchLicker]

Crazy.

 

[Stink Star]

Man that makes it seem like submarines don't go very deep at all

 

[Spivitz]

Very cool, I've not looked @ images of Lake Baikal in a long time.

 

[greasy]

This is so damn awesome, love it!

 

[Mook]

I had no idea the ocean just turned to dirt the further down you went

 

[Spivitz]

I hope Russia makes it to the mantle....wait......maybe that is a bit not possible

 

[Yaj Yak]

sperm whales are crazy

 

[Ear Rak]

So....the scuba dive record is deeper than a sub? That doesnt seem right.

 

[DEEZUZ]

I question this

 

[DEEZUZ]

I say fuck space, let's see what's down in the oceans on our own earth

I'm guessing there are some very large, scary monster's down there.

Megalodon lives.

 

[Typhoon]

Surprised Lake Tahoe isn't on there. I believe its the 2nd or 3rd deepest lake in the U.S.

I just read the other day that the ocean has 50% less fish than it did like 50 years ago or something . That is not a good sign for things to come .

They are only doing the deepest lakes and oceans, not the ones with the highest STD count.

Xkcd can take a lot to get into, if you don't understand a panel do not worry, you are not alone. There is a site that explains the panels.

1040: Lakes and Oceans - explain xkcd
(I am sure you can figure out how to plug panel numbers into the address bar)

That makes the great lakes seem so shallow.

So....the scuba dive record is deeper than a sub? That doesnt seem right.

Different classes of subs out there

Several depth limits are shown, including the*free-diving*record (273 metres), the*scuba diving*record (330 metres), the depth bike tires go flat (approximately 100 metres), the depth at which water rushes in instead of air rushing out (approximately 2000 metres), the pressure that would push a cork into a bottle (approximately 250 metres), the depth that would push water up a faucet (approximately 75 metres), the depth an*emperor penguincan dive (535 metres), the depth limit of an*Ohio-class submarine*(240 metres), the depth limit of a*Typhoon-class submarine*(400 metres)

It's a joke claiming James Cameron went down there to find a hidden treasure.
