, ET is looking back at its interview with the late actor back in 2003, when he admitted that he was nervous about going deep down in the ocean to see the wreckage of the famed ship.Ghosts of the Abyssdiscussed his inspiration for the film and took several people, including Paxton, on an unscripted tour of the famous wreckage.

"But then you start thinking about physically what's going to be required of you to get into a three-man, deep-sea Russian submersible for a 13-hour dive," he added."To go down two and a half miles to a place where the sun has never penetrated. And you're starting to think 'OK, I've got young kids. I need to get them to an age where they can support themselves before I do something this crazy.

As for what it was like inside the submersible, Paxton recalled it being"relatively comfortable," before noting that"certainly there are things that can go wrong." Despite all of that, Paxton said he considered"the price of admission" to be"kind of low" given the"great experience." That experience wasn't without some conflicting emotions, though.
