00:00All right, Mike, can you give me an audio check?

00:04Copy that.

00:06Relatively comfortable in there, over.

00:08Absolutely. Everything's go.

00:11He was a different little boy. He really was.

00:15In the immortal words of Buzz Lightyear,

00:18to infinity and beyond.

00:21He quit being scared.

00:22I don't know how he exactly looked fear in the eye, but he did.

00:25I might agree, and I've been lucky enough to swim with and film sharks like this for 30 years.

00:32The problems of getting those sort of shots depended on people like Mike,

00:37and, of course, there weren't many people like Mike.

00:40He was mostly an explorer because he liked to come back with the stories.

00:47It's something that nobody had ever seen before.

00:51Mike liked the deep because it literally was a final frontier opportunity.

00:58To me, it's one of the great mysteries of the sea,

01:01why we have so neglected the ocean.

01:04Imagine if you just knew about the skin of our own bodies.

01:07When I heard on April 20th that an oil rig had exploded in the Gulf of Mexico,

01:14it got my attention.

01:15It is nearly a mile deep and more than 20 miles long.

01:19This injury to the Gulf where he grew up,

01:22he took personally, and he wanted to do something about it.

01:26This was a problem that needed solution.

01:28This was the footage I couldn't stop watching in the edit room.

01:32To the insane amounts of money.

01:34Because Mike had so obviously become a different guy.

01:42There was a moment I felt, it's just not worth it.

01:46The risk is not worth it.

01:49It's not worth it to the families to get that phone call.

01:53I couldn't even believe that what you were about to tell me

01:56was even, you know, possible.

02:02They are the worst.

02:15They were the worst.

02:16You're the worst.

02:20They had been frightened.

02:24They were the worst.

02:27They will another one.
