No, I'm not promoting that anyone actually drains the great oceans of the world. BUT, I am suggesting that you watch a really interesting 2-hour National Geographic Channel show by that name about the topography and geology of the ocean floors. The show traveled around the world draining the ocean a bit at a time showing the various canyons, ridges, abyssal plains and trenches from the Monterey Canyon to Hawaii to Spain and the Marianas Trench. Geologists and other scientists walk through these undersea features via CGI explaining how they formed and how they are changing. It also talked about the new life forms discovered recently that live independent of the sun. Highly recommended!
For example, here's a sample from the show: Sample Video from the Show
Here's the link to the show's website: NatGeo's Drain the Ocean. Unfortunately, I was not able to locate it on Netflix or iTunes, but it shows up occasionally on the National Geographic Channel.
Enjoy!
