Giant Squid FOUND

<< < (2/2)

omnipotentoculus:
I love the Giant Squid (good ol' archie). It is the cryptozoologists dream come true, an almost fantastic beasty with little to no proof of existence is proven true. The unique thing about the Giant Squid, however, is that there have been bodies of rather large squid for a long time. True giant squids (like the one in the video) don't appear, but rather massive ones are still found all the time. That and beaks (about the only hard part of a squid) are also regularly found, from which size can be infered. But this video is just too freaking cool.

sasquatch:
ya thats the kracken i saw them find it on a monster quest episode somwere in the bay on the west side of mexico it was really really deep too :gun: <^>

Countess:
Tonight on Discovery they are doing a show on the Colossal squid including live video. The original video in this thread was filmed in 2004 by a Japanese researcher & is in fact the first footage of a live giant squid in the water. While it would seem a boon for calamari lovers, the ammonia in the animal makes the flesh totally unedible.
