The deepest ever living fish have been discovered, scientists believe. A UK-Japan team found the 17-strong shoal at depths of 4.8 miles in the Japan Trench in the Pacific - and captured the deep sea animals on film.
The scientists have been using remote-operated landers designed to withstand immense pressures to comb the world's deepest depths for marine life. The fish, known as Pseudoliparis amblystomopsis, can be seen darting about in the darkness of the depths, scooping up shrimps.
