    Ooo! That last one has long fascinated me. It’s a Siphonophore called Praya Dubia. They can get as long as 160 feet long!

    ‘Wait what is that’ is a bigfin squid, they live in the deep and are hard to find because of that. That’s just a juvenile, that’s why it’s not that big.

        According to the link, they’re thought to get about 26ft, or 8m, with their arms included. Their actual bodies are incredibly small, however.

        Somebody who actually knows what they’re talking about can correct me here, but I’m pretty sure those are the tentacles, with the grabby things on the end- and in the foreground… because it was annoyed at the sub/rov. (And may have punched it.)

        (“grabby things” is a highly technical term.)

      It’s the Humbolts you gotta be worried about. These guys mostly just lurk and silently judge your music choices.

        They’re so used to the high-pressure environment of the deep ocean that they’d just explode into something resembling jelly or phlegm if they came to the surface

    Dennis is the cool neighbor that always shares his weed. And the squid is a master mixologist who’s just waiting to take your order.

    The, glowy rope thing… kinky, but seriously not worth it.
