everybody gangsta till the glass start cracking.

“The submarine is very strong” would be the best last line someone can say

[hmmorrison]

“I’m a little bit afraid” Bruh I’m a lot afraid and I’m watching this on my phone.

[NASkeywest]

Can you even imagine what it’s like being at 700m in total darkness and coming across that. It would have to be an out of body experience. Almost like being in outspace and getting attacked by aliens.

I’m a retired Fire Captain. People used to always tell us that firemen have to be the craziest people on earth for going into burning buildings.
Videos like this help me to prove that there are LOTS of people crazier than firemen.

0:52 The blood filtering through its gills, terrifyingly beautiful.

The way he nonchalantly said they're attacking us, proves that they have the utmost faith in that vessel. They clearly believe in the strength of the materials, the quality of the workmanship, and the reliability of the maintenance personnel.

One small crack in that glass would have meant their doom. I don't think I would have been as calm.

[cantoffendanyone]

Imagine being such a badass creature and have such silly eyes.

[AshyGrn]

That first shot of six-gilled shark venting blood is the most metal thing

[nachtmuis]

Its crazy to think that these sharks normally eat this in total darkness.

[adamconstanza]

After watching this I definitely won't be swimming down to 700 metres next time I go to the sea... 👍

[petalss]

I don't know what's more eerie.. the dead whale body all exposed inside out or the moving eyes of the shark aiming right at you as they get closer ... :(

[jadecherry]

That’s literally a scene straight outta a horror movie. I was just waiting for the glass to start cracking 😅

[Herbie]

What he shoulda said was: we're gonna need a bigger submarine.

[RaptorofRex]

Moral of the story: THE OCEAN IS TERRIFYING

[WhiteStarx]

1:21 most terrifying moment... that gaze..

[agentsuperargo]

Shark.."Do you see us driving through your neighborhood!?"

[Potatoyoho]

Full respect to these people, dedicated themselves for science, brave and absolutely deserved our respect

[cattleyapenalosa]

"The submarine is very strong." It reminded me of what happened to Titanic.
