12. Maiden mission to Red Sea floor reveals surprising findings

Victor Vescovo is famous for traveling the greatest vertical distance possible without leaving earth, having summited Mount Everest and dove to the bottom of the Mariana Trench.

We went aboard to hear from Victor and his team about their work and the strangest things they have seen on the ocean floor.
