Just For Fun
"Three Miles Deep in the Bermuda Triangle: The Discovery of the World's Deepest Wooden Shipwreck"
In 2001, David Concannon participated in the Atlantic Sands Expedition, an expedition which explored a sunken shipwreck three miles deep in the Bermuda Triangle.
The expedition discovered the world's deepest wooden shipwreck, a slave ship that foundered in the middle of the Bermuda Triangle during a hurricane in June 1810 and came to rest at a depth of 16,109 feet. The expedition conducted the deepest archaeological recovery of a shipwreck ever attempted, the deepest use of digital and HDTV technology, and the first manned exploration of the Blake Basin in the Atlantic Ocean. Mr. Concannon made a dive to the wreck site in the Russian Mir submersible, becoming one of only a handful of people to ever explore the ocean at a depth almost one mile deeper than the wreck of the Titanic.
David Concannon has given this presentation to community groups, dive clubs, universities and museums, including to audiences at the Pacific Science Center, the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, Underwater Intervention, the Los Angeles Adventurers Club, the Boston Sea Rovers, and to the Sea-Space Symposium.
