The first people to dive down to the Titanic in 14 years say some of the wreck is deteriorating rapidly - eaten away by salt water and bacteria.

Over the course of five submersible dives, an international team of deep-sea explorers surveyed the sunken ship, which lies 3,800 metres down in the Atlantic Ocean. Jillian Kitchener reports.
