Within "diving" limits (air or mixed gases)? Or just a wreck located the "deepest"?
 
I say it is the Titanic.

None deeper have I ever heard of being discovered

Named and known, the Yorktown is over 16,000' (Titanic is at 12,500). Unknown as to origin, the deepest I've seen is 18,000' ... but that was a few months ago. No telling what'll show up next.

:star: On 14th May 2002 Two guys just dived a wreck off QLD Australia in 173m using Breathers.
 
Let's see - 16,650 ft depth thats about 505 atm - so I'd need about 5 Al 80s per breath....

Maybe I'd need to rent those steel 120s:D
 
Or convert that RB80 to use LOX :wink:

(And I guess liquid He for the diluent...)

There is a u-boat that is even deeper than the Yorktown. I am not sure the exact numbers but I will do some looking into. They had a show about it on the National geographic channel.
