What a fascinating question!
The following are the top 10 deepest bodies of water in the world in order from greatest to least:
Pacific Ocean (35,827 ft) (10,924 meters)
Atlantic Ocean (30,246 ft) (9,219 meters)
Indian Ocean (24,460 ft) (7,455 meters)
Caribbean Sea (22,788 ft) (6,946 meters)
Arctic Ocean (18,456 ft) (5,625 meters)
South China Sea (16,456 ft) (5,016 meters)
Bering Sea (15,659 ft) (4,773 meters)
Mediterranean Sea (15,197 ft) (4,632 meters)
Gulf of Mexico (12,425 ft) (3,787 meters)
Japan Sea (12,276 ft) (3,742 meters)
Additionally, the world is 70.9% water.
Of that water, 97% is saltwater.
It is obviously entirely impossible to know the exact depths of these water-bodies at this moment in time but this information is as of 20011, so it is pretty current. That said, the official depths for the Southern Ocean are still not available at this time.
