I have to give it up for him, pretty amazing
alone, that deep, in the dark.

I hope he turned off his lights at some point.

This marks a turning point in underwater exploration.

I'm not so sure. The risk is so easily offset by sending ROVs that most oceanographers don't really see the point on going themselves when they can operate an ROV in real time without the risk and expense.
