How's This for Depth?

Recommended Posts

Interesting chart of extremes...shows the highest and the lowest...it also references the BP rig and how deep it was drilling too.

Good stuff.
So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh
Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright
'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life
Make light!

That's pretty cool. They show the failed oil well for scale. The sperm whale is pretty hardcore diving that deep.

Cool chart.

The chart should include "Typical Skydiving Exit Altitude" at 13,500 ft. Also, that Ruppell's Vulture is one badass bird. I see it has evolved to fly in the "Death Zone", probably to take advantage of the abundance of buzzard food up there. :)
