Definitely the coolest rich guy going, he actually uses his money to have real fun with and things he enjoys other than just cars, big houses etc

Looking forward to seeing what 'creatures' they encounter

He is a brillint business man too. Useless as a manager or such though, he even admits it, thats why he hires people to do it. When he visits stores he researches the staff too and chats to them. Proper cool guy

As a nerd I hope he can film a sperm whale taking on a giant squid, however i dont see that happening.

If he's doing this has he given up on the space tourist idea?

can't believe how far he'll go down.

crazy to think that you cruise at 35,000 ft on aeroplanes yet theres another 35,000 ft underneath the water.

He is hell of a dam sight braver than me, although I would like to see the results on what's down there I don't think 'd have the balls to go that far down.
