Fitted out in a WASP suit to protect him from cold, wet, and pressure, diver Phil Nuytten is winched through the Arctic Ocean ice, about to become the first man in 30 years to set foot upon the world’s northernmost shipwreck.
Like a space-age helmsman, diver Doug Osborne hovers over the Breadalbane’s coral-encrusted wheel, 340 feet below the Arctic Ocean ice. Moments later, Osborne lifted the wheel from the deck and brought it to the surface. (Numbers at lower left indicate the time, date, and film roll.)
