This makes our feet exposed to the looming bacteria. I pray every day that I do not contract this ghastly disease as it is quite gruesome to see.

But up until now scientists have made discoveries that they never thought possible such as exploring the Mariana Trench to see if any life was down that deep (as deep as the Himalayas are tall). People use to think less and less things existed the farther you went down but seafaring robots have proven this wrong (Mustain, B.). Even after seeing all of this there…
