Corrected entry: In the crystal chamber, they said the suits can hold the pressure. Therefore, the suits must be really hard. So how can a piece of rock go through Iverson's helmet? (01:07:25)

Corrected entry: At the end when Josh and Rebbecca are at the bottom of the ocean, she says they could be 800 miles deep. Being a geologist, Joshua must have known that the deepest point in the ocean is about 6.8 miles deep and therefore had to correct her. And that would be the Marianas trench. The place where they entered the crust. (01:54:45)
Correction: She says they are 800 feet deep but might as well be 800 miles deep. She's just pointing out how hopeless the situation is.

Correction: It goes through Iverson's helmet for the same reason a knife passes through your skin but a fist doesn't even if the exact same amount of force is used. The suits are able to resist pressure because the pressure is relatively consistent accross the whole outer surface of the suit, the impact of the small fragment however wasn't consistent, it was a large force applied to a very small area.
