À propos de ce contenu audio
In the last episode, we measured how deep the ocean really is.
This time, we go down there.
In 1960, Jacques Piccard and Don Walsh descended into the deepest known point on Earth, the Challenger Abyss inside the Mariana Trench. The engineering alone should not have worked. The pressure was enough to crush steel like paper.
And yet… they made it.
But before reaching the bottom, something went wrong.
Cracking sounds echoed through the cabin. Shockwaves rattled the vessel. And the window, one of the strongest ever built, began to fracture.
Decades later, similar incidents followed.
Unmanned submarines damaged. Robotic arms failing. Cables cut. Unexplained sounds recorded in the dark.
Were these just effects of pressure, misinterpreted data, and human imagination under stress?
Or is the deepest part of the ocean still hiding things we don't fully understand?
This episode isn't about proving monsters exist.
It's about how humans react when technology reaches its limits, and certainty disappears.
