The deepest spot on earth with director James Cameron – story and video

Seven miles below the ocean looks as bleak as the moon, according to Hollywood director James Cameron.

Cameron has just returned from the first solo dive to the deepest place on earth – the Mariana Trench in the Pacific.

The descent took an incredible two and a half hours – 2.8 miles an hour! – in a submarine called Deepsea Challenger.

Tourist eaten by cannibals - remains found on Pacific island claim

A German adventurer might have been eaten by cannibals on a remote island in the Pacific, says a report in the Sun.

The remains of Stefan Ramin are said to have been found on a campfire and it is believed he was cut into pieces before being roasted by a local tribe.

Cannibalism is said to have ceased decades ago on the French Polynesian island of Nuku Hiva, about 900 miles north of Tahiti.
