kilomikedelta, the crews are professional dive experts. But the usual things they see dead or alive are critters rather than people. I'm not sure there are very many people who've ever brought somebody up or even seen somebody during a deep dive in the ocean. I'd estimate the number as close enough to zero not to matter.

I don't remember if any of the other deep recoveries involved finding bodies. But they might have. Until I hear I'm willing to figure "no".

It's unusual that remoras and other marine critters have not found these bodies. That region of the Atlantic must be really barren. Whales vanish in other deep places in side of 2 years except for skeletons. They take a little longer to vanish.
