*scoff* What the human race doesn't know about the ocean...

Having just watched the complete Planet Earth series - there are plenty of very large, very diverse reefs that are only now coming to light - Indonesia as the example presented... So, no - not necessarily something we'd have noticed before. :P

Loved every minute of it when I watched it.
