| I think James Cameron built a sub to reach the bottom (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2012/03/120325-james-cameron-mariana-trench-challenger-deepest-returns-science-sub/) - Quote :
- At noon on Monday, local time, (10 p.m. Sunday ET) James Cameron's "vertical torpedo" sub broke the surface of the western Pacific,
carrying the National Geographic explorer and filmmaker back from the Mariana Trench's Challenger Deep—Earth's deepest, and perhaps most alien,
realm.The first human to reach the 6.8-mile-deep (11-kilometer-deep) undersea valley solo, Cameron arrived at the bottom with the tech to collect scientific data,
specimens, and visions unthinkable in 1960, when the only other manned Challenger Deep dive took place, according to members of the National Geographic expedition. Not sure what the door is a reference to, maybe just making fun of his move "the Abyss" | |

| We brought this comic up in my seminar class while discussing the Puerto Rico trench. The abyss -- It's rude to stare  | |
