James Cameron had balls of titanium to go that deep. Man he's a living legend hats off james Cameron sir 🙏

15,000 pounds per square inch of pressure. Whoever designed that submersible is a genius.

Rewatched this after the Titan situation.. this video hits different.. Hate to make comparisons but you can clearly see the quality of equipment, safety procedures and scientific intrigue compared to greed and ego trips, and it's so sad

He dived by himself? I thought he dived with a team!! That’s absolutely amazing!!!! Applause!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

I love James Cameron's work beyond the movies. The scientist within him is fascinating. He can vision the ocean through an entirely different prism.

I always thought he was just a rich guy wanting to be important going down there but after I watched the documentary about how The Abyss was shot I have found a deep respect for him. It's great to see how he could fulfill his dream.

I love that James Cameron is getting more respect and recognition now. It's sad what happened to the Titan but it shows that you can have money to fulfil your dreams like he does, but It's important to have good judgment and good preparation for something so crazy. He has an expensive hobby but he's done his research and he has the knowledge to try those things while minimizing risk. (Even though there is still a great amount of risk)

This man dive into the deep ocean like he's playing arcade games.

Watching this is one of the most spectacular educational experiences I have ever had. I have learned that there is nothing at the bottom of the Mariana trench.

You gotta admire this guts this man has to do this solo.

When that sub dropped them weights and powered back up there was so much emotions. I'm glad he fulfilled his dreams safety 🙏🏼

I'm glad that people were so inspired by deep sea travel that they found these videos again. There's still so much down there that we don't know about and watching this video is almost like watching a moon landing. It's clear that this expedition was for science instead of some ego-driven moneymaker. Look at how incredible all the footage is. Keep in mind this is at 15,000 pounds per square inch! That is enough to turn an air bubble into a grenade!

James Cameron has guts, to dive that deep in that small sub by himself, scary!

James Cameron's exploration of the ocean is like what NASA or Elon Musk are doing for Space. Pushing the Limits. Very cool to watch.

To think it was just one brave man, out there in the eternal, cold darkness, who reached it and never lost faith.

Thank you Natgeo and thank you James for the opportunity you gave us to see this. It’s amazing! After seeing this any ordinary person can tell the difference between Titan’s equipment, this, or the Russian Myr … Personally I lost my ability to swim years ago because I almost drowned a couple of times and my fear of water is huge. As I was watching the video my anxiety was bigger then the whole Mariana Trench 😂 but if I had the opportunity to be in James’s place I would do it anytime 🤣

Props to the cameraman for once again giving us amazing footage of the outside of the sub at 15k ft deep! Always a Legend!

In the beginning of the video at 0:05 we can see the small pressurised sphere compared to the rest of the sub. A superb and secure machine that exposes how cheap and flawed was the Titan submersible. The Alvin submersile is also a piece of ever evolving hardware that has completed more than 5000 deep dive missions since its creation in late 60's. A well understood and secure industry that will suffer from those big mistakes.

3 times deeper than the shipwreck of titanic,the preassure is so high, James Cameron is so genius in that field

Props to the cameraman being able to dive that deep

Don Walsh reached the deepest known part of the ocean in 1960, and then helped James Cameron reach the same place in 2012.

His name is James, James Cameron The bravest pioneer No budget too steep, no sea too deep Who's that? It's him, James Cameron James, James Cameron explorer of the sea With a dying thirst to be the first Could it be? Yeah that's him! James Cameron

obviously no one can ever be 100% happy from when they are born to when they die, but I wonder who said that money doesn't bring happiness…. this man is the picture of happiness and I would be happy to be able to live such a beautiful life full of adventures

Whatta Legend! A true pioneering great! I get scared standing on the pier at the beach 😂 this man was basically sat on the deepest part of the ocean & wasn't even worried, hats off to Jimmy!

Ce qu'il a accompli ce jour-là est à mettre au même niveau que le jour où on a posé le pied sur la Lune. L'absolue confiance qu'il avait dans l'équipe et le matériel intime le plus grand respect, quand à l'extrême péril de l'opération. C'est d'autant plus spectaculaire que ce n'est pas un scientifique qui l'a fait, mais un cinéaste curieux épris de découverte qui va jusqu'au bout de son idée. Epoustouflant.

very impressive. way to go jim! wish I could ve been there

Kudos to the cameraman recording from outside the sub!

Mr. Cameron is a real Legend! He truly knows what he does, and with him those 5 ppl would have seen the Titanic and could have told there loved ones about it. RIP

So he actually did exactely, what one of his protagonists did in his film "the abyss". "Know, this was a one way ticket" still give me goosebumps. You have to see that movie, if you don't know...

I love the fact that these videos of James Cameron is popping up in my feed. You can see that he and his team wasted no effort into making sure their sub is well engineered and spent years themselves to research.

This little pod sub is 1000x more advanced, has better engineering, and is much more heavily designed/productive compared to Titan. Wow.

this is just too perfect. good job man.

Most dare person as a driver to director what an incredible journey he has prove one human different achievements , what not he can do ? Very inspirational man on Earth.

He is one brave man to venture that far down all by himself. Don't think I'd chance it even if you offered me a few million £. I'd be way too scared and apprehensive.

Espetacular é muita coragem 👏😀

he is so brave to go alone down there.

He literally set the James Cameroon milestone down there !

If the film meant anything to you, this is incredibly beautiful

Muito impressionante, parabéns pela coragem!!!

Amazing work and blessed person on his journey in a deep blue sea.

First I dont believe that there is human being have such a giant guts to dive that depth. And he is the only James Cameron, the director of Titanic movie. Salute sir.

James Cameron is so underrated. Before Titan I just thought he was a film star.

He has a powerful mind set to do this kind of risky thing at this age😎respect you sir!!!

James Cameron has always held a special place in my heart.

I loved the life aquatic with Steve zissou! Great movie!

He is a true adventurer. Risk taker. I met him not long ago for a special screening of his latest Avatar movie. He was great. Easy to talk to. Sense of humor too. We both have a mutual friend.

Pure legend it's freaky that humans can make such machines

He brought light to a place devoid of any.

Fair play to the camera man… never dies

materials that had been used in this sub and to the oceangate are very different from its structure to quality. hats off Mr. James Cameron

My respect for this man has increased

A brave man. Well done

That takes a level of bravery for sure…

Thanks for sharing this insight...this movie always reminds me of how we used to be innocent ( not naive which is different )...everytime i watch it brings me back to center, balance in such a beautyful , pure and unique way...for those who really understands this movie knows its almost a mind/spiritual cleanse per say....thank you

Look at the quality of submersible and its equipment. 🤘🏻

Such a cool video! I loved the Life Aquatic music, it fit perfectly in my opinion

This is the reason, why he is the best director in the world❤

A submarine specially made for James Cameron It is made entirely of titanium It is only used by him after many tests It can only be used by him Only one person can go on it It is made entirely of protective armor The titanium rule This sub marine They have found some special technology in the submarine to control the pressure inside the submarine as it descends vertically into the sea.

What this man does always fascinates me

Hats off to cameraman for showing all this

The Man, The Legend

James Cameron is not just movie maker he is true explorer

It's unfathomable how much pressure is at play at those depths, like 1050ATM / 15000psi+

He is just amazing!

Absolutely amazing!!!

There’s something about this guy which fascinates the world. It all started with titanic 97.

Se tem homem corajoso nesse mundo mas que esse homem eu desconheço.👏

This man is a legend

i bet that was amazing. being in there and hitting the floor. like history brother

This man is a badass director and ocean explorer.

I can just imagine the nervousness and excitement he had at that moment.

Say what you like about James Cameron but you cant say he hasn't got balls of steel.

This is the reason why I am big fan of James Cameron

Thank you James Cameron for saving us all!

Kudos to the cameraman dives deep to film Cameron and his sub..

I think I am right in thinking that James Cameron is only the third or fourth man to have ever been there ? - Quite an achievement.

My god ,can't believe ..Words stuck after watching titan's sad end...Super brave man

His name is James, James Cameron The bravest pioneer No budget too steep, no sea too deep Who's that? It's him, James Cameron..." Good job on raising the bar!

James Cameron the man who always thinks the future 👍

He dive alone. What a badass

Thats a amazing. This is indescribable courage. Good thing there are scientists.

Now that the failure of the titan from oceangate, it just reminds me of the success that cameron had with his crew, this is top tier human engineering, not everytime a sub capable of submersing people below 1000 meter down.

Simply amazing.

It would be so cool to see the actual human scale of the descent.

I would for sure have a playlist...why not? Jammin out in the submersible baby!!!!!

I love James Cameron's child-like enthusiasm.

É uma escuridão total nas profundezas... 🇧🇷 olá, Brazil presente aqui. 🙋🏽‍♂️

Well done for that camera man diving deeper than James Cameron just to film the descent.

And he did it solo 👏👏👏👏👏

Этот человек прожил насыщенную жизнь.

James Cameron will be remembered as a G! 👏😤🔥🔥🔥

Shout out to the camera man for free diving that deep

1:50 _His name is James, James Cameron_ _The bravest pioneer_ _No budget too steep, no sea too deep_ _Who's that?_ _It's him, James Cameron_ 🎶🎵 _"Descending to 1000 feet. I don't see the bar yet. It must have sunk much lower"_ _James, James Cameron explorer of_ _the sea_ _With a dying thirst to be the first_ _Could it be? Yeah that's him!_ _James Cameron_ 🎵🎶

Out of curiosity i searched the earth crust thickness. At 40 km average, the trench cuts it at 25% or so of its layer, its somehow both a lot and little. And overall should reminds us than our planet still is far bigger than us, we're just ants crawling on a giant ball that will likely survive us to give room for other lifeforms, once we're done shooting ourselves in the foot

The real hero James Cameron. I salute you❤

This is heartwarming to watch. God's nature may not do much of harm only if you approach it with caution.

Its like taking a lighter and lighting it in the forest. Thats all we get to see but its the start if the exploration. Hes livin the life. This is life….

I can’t even imagine to get all the way down there. Ohh 😅my goodness! There is only way I can get there through dreaming like I was there through imagination. 😂

Thank God Mr. Cameron took each AND every precaution!!!

i feel like everyone missed the title lol well done tho i got u, this is also the best soundtrack ever made 100%
