yeah so he would have made a good sign

yeah so he would have made a good sign he would’ve made a good scientist who

he would’ve made a good scientist who

he would’ve made a good scientist who had made a good engineer he would have

had made a good engineer he would have

had made a good engineer he would have been a good just about anything he could

been a good just about anything he could

been a good just about anything he could have been somebody but that got me

have been somebody but that got me

have been somebody but that got me wondering okay what kind of a

that he piloted and code designed Wow

that he piloted and code designed Wow so you know where he went what’s the

so you know where he went what’s the

so you know where he went what’s the deepest place on earth the Marianas

deepest place on earth the Marianas

deepest place on earth the Marianas Trench dad I thought you were gonna say

Trench dad I thought you were gonna say

Trench dad I thought you were gonna say my fears all most seven miles down seven

my fears all most seven miles down seven

my fears all most seven miles down seven almost seven miles down off the coast of

almost seven miles down off the coast of

almost seven miles down off the coast of the Philippines and so I asked him about

the Philippines and so I asked him about

the Philippines and so I asked him about that record-setting dock let’s check it

that record-setting dock let’s check it

that record-setting dock let’s check it out so what motivated you to go to the

out so what motivated you to go to the

out so what motivated you to go to the bottom of the ocean the bottom of the

bottom of the ocean the bottom of the

bottom of the ocean the bottom of the earth you know the funny thing is that

earth you know the funny thing is that

earth you know the funny thing is that I’ve been asked that a lot and it occurs
