How were the first transatlantic cables laid for telegraphs, phone etc?
I saw a program recently showing huge cables coming up from underneath the beach in Devon and they said they went all the way to America, Australia etc. How on earth were these cables laid in the late 1800's? It'd be hard enough in a modern world. It's not a joke, they're still there today going from the south of the UK all across the world! Surely they dont just rest on the suurface of the sea, how did they make cables long enough and connect them all?
Surface of the seabed i meant 
The first transatlantic cables were laid by Brunels Great Eastern ship after it was converted for the job. They do just lay on the ocean floor, but they did have problems with the cable breaking and getting snagged, I think it took a couple of attempts to lay the first cable. There are also cables that emerge at Porthcurno in Cornwall that connected the commonwealth to its colonies and India.
