Magnapinna

National Geographic has a brief but eerily impressive video of a Magnapinna squid, with "elbowed" tentacles, filmed at almost 8,000 feet depth by a ROV at a Shell drilling site about 200 miles from Houston out in the Gulf. Check it out.

    It's a good thing we have oil companies. They provide convenient platforms for sea exploration, both literally and figuratively.
