And only 28 hours later Peter Gimble & Joseph Fox would be the first diver's to touch the Mount Everest of Scuba Diving.
OP
I managed to snag a copy of the 27 September 1956 issue of Life Magazine that documents the dive. It is in rough shape but readable.
I remember reading about it in the newspaper (back in the days before we had 24 hour news on TV). Never been even tempted to dive it though.
