I wonder what they taste like fried?

Seriously though, that's pretty cool.

Just looking at the head with the flapping fins it looks like the Queen from the Aliens movie. It will be interesting to see if they get more footage.

From the jerky reaction of the camera you can just imagine the operator saying, "What in the hell is THAT ?." Who knows what is really down at those depths.

If it wasn't for my weekly alien abductions, I'd have no social life at all.

The length of the tentacles is what got me. It's unsettling.

Bizzare...makes you think about all the other creatures that we have yet to discover.

I remember after the Tsunami a few years ago, all kinds of weird and unknown things washed up upon the shore.
