Via Pharyngula.

Ladies and Gentlemen.

Vampyroteuthis infernalis.

Also Known As “I think I just crapped my extreme depth suit.”

Kinda freaky when you look at the images on WikiPedia (that’s the link above), but way more schpookie when you see this video (apologies in advance regarding any offensive popups or anything on the sidebars of the link’s video site or whatever).

Happy nightmaring, kiddies.

    Idon’t know – kinda looks a little bit like Dumbo.
    I probably wouldn’t want to spot it below me while was swimming the English Channel, however.

    It’s not very big – I’d love to see one!
    I hadn’t seen this particular footage before – very interesting!
