@@ThePrufessa They found new islands mostly by following seabirds, as they understood that they had to go to land _somewhere_ to nest. And they kept track of places they had already discovered through mapping pf ocean currents and star charts primarily. In the middle of the pacific the night sky is a whole lot brighter and more diverse than near civilization. Making it a lot easier to use as a guide. Old Polynesian current maps look like strings of twine tied to a board.

If instead of shark mutants they could be generic Gozilla/King Kong types then a movie could be made, or two.

Two additional facts for the depth of the Mariana Trench: The Wreck of the RMS Titanic ever since 1912 is at the depth of just about 4 KM. That makes the Trench more than 2.5 times deeper than the Titanic’s depth in the Northern Atlantic Ocean. Another comparison is with the highest point on Earth, Mount Everest. Mount Everest is 8 KM tall, and so if you flipped it upside down into the Trench, the Trench will only have 3 KM of space from the tip-top of the great mountain of Mount Everest.

Wow, he could substract 8 from eleven 😂 BTW..mt everest is nearly 9 km tall (8.8)

See, when I think about how early the Polynesians had mastered the Pacific.....how is it possible that the Americas were not highly traveled much earlier than we thought. Just seems logical. Thanks for this!

What do you mean? America was fully inhabited when Europeans found it.

Oceans are not only wide but deep. The first time I ventured beyond the continental shelf in a small boat, I remember reflecting that if we sank it would take about an hour just to get to the bottom.

Alright alright. I have now been confronted with several videos from this channel and... Well, you got me!! I am now subscribed. I must admit, I have thoroughly enjoyed almost all of the videos that the algorithm God's have gifted to me so I have no other choice than to subscribe. Woohoo!!! 🥳

Love the video even though I had to keep pausing it every handful of seconds to convert km to miles to understand the measurements.

[@andyjay729]

One advantage with Prime Meridian running through London is that the International Date Line takes a relatively straight path through the Pacific without disrupting too many countries (yes, it does have to make a few jogs around far eastern Russia and some Pacific island nations). That said, if the Prime Meridian ran through, say, Paris or Berlin, would it have an even more unimpeded run through the Pacific?
