Alien-like Squid With "Elbows" Filmed at Drilling Site

"Welcome to erf"

Wonder what it tastes like

Is that real or a hoax?

I couldn't be assed reading just watched the vid

In the future you will be warned for spam for posts like this. As for the animal, it is most certainly real.

the scientific community awards you with a

but anyways, interesting specimen, seems to be an incredibly deep sea squid that floats just above the bottom, dangling it's tentacles downwards to catch prey. As much as i disagree with the use of oil and oil companies, they do push through research at much faster speeds because of the amount of money backing them. Drilling tech has greatly advanced in the past years because of them, and apparently they're making quite a few deep sea discoveries.

^yeah you're right:

But the video is evidence of how, as oil- and gas-industry ROVs dive deeper and stay down longer, they are yielding valuable footage of deep-sea animals.

Some marine biologists have even formed formal partnerships with oil companies, allowing scientists to share camera time on the corporate ROVs—though critics worry about possible conflicts of interest.

That is interesting how this discovery was a result of the oil companies and it's kind of neat to see our need for oil producing expolation and knowledge from the deep see. The animal was really cool too.

I love new discoveries of wildlife in our world.

The stig · 02-12-2008, 10:48 PM

Hey, i was preparing for my college and eating my tea at the same time, i was hardly spamming.

But i'm really not seeing the big achievement or anything.

Yeah, it's knew and it's good that we've discovered something else about our waters/world, but what can it really do?

However, could this squid of possibly been around a few hundred years ago and be blamed for SOME stories of giant squids since giant squids were rare, even back then?

Marlie · 02-12-2008, 10:50 PM

I WANT TO BELIEVE. Just shows you how scary the ocean is. You don't know what the fucks down there. There could be some Cloverfield shit down there and we'd never know.

PurpleSheep · 02-12-2008, 10:53 PM

I thought this thread was about Elk.

But seriously that thing is freaky I remember seeing a show on the bbc about deep sea creatures they had what looked like a giant woodlice or is it woodlouse, deep sea discovery has really been put on the back foot and if oil companies get the ball rolling it's good to see.

I reckon we should all go out and buy a full tank of petrol and just drive around town celebrating and supporting deep sea discoveries.

0.o creepy
looks familiar though... maybe I saw something like that in a game somewhere. anyway the sea freaks me out, it's too big, lol, i mean anything could be down there you never know. >.< scary

the tentacles remind me of the barnicles in the Half-Life games

Itsu · 03-12-2008, 01:41 AM

OH wow looks freakylish alien but I really am curious to know more about this squid. I'm glad that I read in this article that marine biologists are partnering up oil companies to study marine animals like this squid that we know so little about.

Lord Namvel · 05-12-2008, 09:53 PM

it's wonderweiss in his resurrecion form, they're real yo...!!! arrancars...!!!

AnarchoElk · 06-12-2008, 02:08 AM

Yeahe they are quite similar. I also thinks it is similar to some "Alien: Ufo" aliens.

This creature is awesome I have to read more of this so called "Magnapinna".

**ShinGotti** · 07-12-2008, 01:33 AM

Yeah that was a really strang looking thing for sure ^_^ I wasnt expecting what I saw. Makes me wonder what all is really on the bottom of the ocean. Because really we havent seen a 10th of what is really down there. New discoveries everyday, and that was a gem of one

The stig · 07-12-2008, 02:12 AM

^A shark with legs lol, but too lazy to come up.

Now that would be scary

San Goku · 07-12-2008, 02:53 AM

Seen this the other day on CNN, those are some long ass tenticles. Only like 2% of the occean has been discovered. So much unknown out there, this sparks the interest and demand for occean exploration even more.

Cane_The9lives · 09-12-2008, 04:05 AM

Yep more discoveries undoubtebly await, i would love if they found another though to be extinct fish or marine animal like the coelacanth.
