McCallum, Keenan "Great Race' Wynn and Marshal "B-film male Lead King ' Thompson play crusty scientists and sub crew members.

*Theme- the ocean is still unexplored for a very good reason.

*Based on- Jules Vern early sea stories.

*Trivia/location/goofs- Mr Bridges has become type cast as the consummate frogman since his Sea Hunt days in the late 50's. He has done better since in comedy like Zucker Bros "Airplane'.
