Deepest point in the ocean is he Mariana Trench - 36,070 ft ( 120 ft), 36070/5280 = 6.8 miles or so.

In he Mediterranean deepest point is 17,280 ft, so 17280/5280 = 3.2 miles

No wonder it sank it burrowed at least 23 miles into the earth’s crust!

It wasn't 27 miles down. It was 27 miles away from it's base. It's depth was stated to be 2,370 meters, which is about 1 1/2 miles.

No, no......

The depth was 2370 meters at a distance of 27 miles from port.

The Marianas Trench, the deepest water known is only about 7 miles deep
