The 5 Deeps Expedition with Victor Vescovo

Description

The 5 Deeps Expedition with Victor Vescovo

After travelling 47,000 miles and completing 39 dives, the Five Deeps Expedition has reached its successful conclusion: the first manned descent to the deepest point of each of the world’s five oceans. Numerous other firsts were made, including the world’s deepest manned dive in history, to a new record 10,925 meters at the Mariana Trench’s Challenger Deep, as well as the first submersible and pilots to repeatedly dive to the bottom of the ocean.

The Five Deeps Expedition was the brainchild of extreme explorer Victor Vescovo. He has skied to both poles and climbed the highest peaks on each continent. He is also an accomplished pilot of jet fixed-wing aircraft, helicopters and, most recently, manned submersibles. He is now the first person in history to have been to the top of all the world’s continents as well as the bottom of all its oceans.
