The Mariana Trench is the deepest known part of the Earth's oceans. The trench is located off the coast of Japan and stretches for nearly 1,600 miles. The average depth along the trench is 6.8 miles. This may not sound like much, but the atmospheric pressure at the bottom of the trench is 1,000 times stronger than the pressure at sea level.
Despite the pressure, plenty of fish can still be found throughout the Mariana Trench. Most of them are ancient creatures that have not evolved for thousands of years. Due to the environment, they evolved and became very interesting.

If these creatures give you nightmares, don’t be ashamed. I couldn't sleep for a week after seeing this. Especially that goblin shark. I would just insist that deep-sea fishing be left to qualified researchers.
