Product Description
Pioneer into the deep-sea in the worlds most unique and innovative submarines with maverick submarine builder and underwater explorer Karl Stanley. Karl has never taken a back seat to his goals, particularly if they stand on the side of impossible. That was certainly the case at the age of 15, when he proclaimed to his parents that he decided to build a submarine. Soon after, Karl navigated a 15 foot steel pipe into the backyard of their suburban New Jersey home. The submarine would be known as C-BUG: Controlled-Buoyancy Underwater Glider, the first gliding submersible of its kind. By the time Karl turned 30, he built a second, more innovative submarine that is designed to go to an unprecedented depth of 3,000 feet. Today he has logged over 1,200 dives but Karl's unwavering desire to innovate and explore still remains. Tormented by an active mind that drives him to push the envelope of conventional wisdom, Karl finds himself at odds with some and revered by others. His current submarine is a one of a kind vehicle in which he offers to take paying passengers, for a nominal price, to depths usually reserved for scientists and the military. Although his approach is questioned, his fortitude and conviction is universally admired. A View From Below follows Karl Stanley into the deep sea on his unprecedented, controversial, quest to "Go Deeper". His determination and creativity will amaze and inspire you from the very beginning.
