The English on this caption was poor!!! - Should have read ' The Rolex prototype strapped to the outside, was the only watch ever; to have reached the astounding depth of 10,916m.

I guess if you could afford to go on a submarine to the bottom of the Mariana trench you could afford a Rolex...

[Guranga93]

Sans watch commercial, it's not a bad video.

[Dancing88Mike]

These guys are REAL HEROES and authentic role models. All parents should be forced to watch this video with their kids.

Strange that they have been remained the only humans going so deep. So much about the huge leap of progress in the last 50 years :P

@the13er Sad, isn't it. And it has close parallels to our space program, which hasn't sent a man to another heavenly body in 40 years. On the other hand, there's a glimmer of hope in both areas of exploration with private ventures. NYTimes today has an article describing separate efforts by Richard Branson, director James Cameron, and Google's Eric Schmidt to complete vehicles that will once again visit that lowest spot in the oceans. And there are plenty of private space ventures springing up.

[theskeptic2010]

@the13er Yeah, sort of reminds me of the space program. By now we should have had bases on the moon and should be launching from there to Mars and beyond, but we basically let it all die a slow death.
