He had just reached what is believed to be the deepest point a human has ever gone in the ocean.

当维克多·韦斯科沃到达深度为10928米的太平洋马里亚纳海沟时，他用15分钟的时间看了看周围的景象，他到达了人类被认为能到达的海洋的最深处。

I was stunned to discover when I did my research that of the five oceans, four had never actually had a visitation to their bottoms,” Vescovo said.

I thought it was about time that someone actually did that.
