Richard Garriott, who had previously overcome the North and South Poles and set off on his trip to
“I am the first person to cross the two poles, end up in space and descend to a record depth,” Garriott said.
Garriott dived aboard TheExplorers Club, the first commercially certified deep-sea craft designed and funded by deep ocean explorer Viktor Veskovo.

In the depths, Garriott decided to create a cache -specifically for this, he cut out a titanium plate on which he wrote the secret word and number. He also left behind a foam float that is lifted on a Kevlar cable. It also has the word "cache" and the number of the cache - these clues can help you find the treasure.
In 2008, Garriott already visited the Internationalspace station (ISS) as a space tourist. He also crossed two poles, explored the Bermuda Triangle and participated in the exploration of the Titanic.
