Biography
Jonas Taylor was born in 1956. He was a deep sea diver and sub pilot working for the United States Navy on a top-secret dive in the Mariana Trench. After an accident that killed two other scientists and put him in the hospital, he claimed to have been attacked by the Meg, a massive prehistoric shark that is believed to be extinct.
