A great video and interview.

BBC News - Meet the only man alive who has been to the deepest ocean

"On 23 January 1960, two explorers, US navy lieutenant Don Walsh and Swiss engineer Jacques Piccard, became the first - and still the only - people to dive 11km (seven miles) to the bottom of the Mariana Trench.
As a new wave of adventurers gear up to repeat the epic journey, Don Walsh tells the BBC about their remarkable deep-sea feat."
