Awesome deep-sea creature imaged!

[dennilfloss]

Looks like some kind of jellyfish. And no, it's not a giant foreskin.

awesome video!

i am extremely fascinated with marine life in general, especially the deep sea that we know virtually NOTHING about at all.

love love love this kinda shit on video!

 

[Miramonti]

Saw this earlier. Clearly some fascinating stuff. :thumbsup: I'd love to see if it's carnivorous, and how/what it eats. Something like that could just envelope it's prey (or if it is really a whale placenta like someone suggests.)

 

[RedRooster]

That is awesome! I agree. Wonder what it tastes like?

 

[BoomerD]

We know more about the moon than we know about what's under the ocean...unless it's oil...how sad.

 

[RPD]

Wtf indeed..

 

[HamburgerBoy]

How wide is the probe thingy they have in there? The animal looks massive but I'm not sure if my imagined scale is off.

 

[Baked]

Kill it before it evolves to kill us!

 

[chusteczka]

I saw the image of Jesus.

 

[Oil]

I can't find out where the ROV filmed it. Was it the Gulf of Mexico?

 

[alkemyst]

TRON!

 

[BabaBooey]

Very cool,I doubt it is a carnivore,looks too frail ?

Thanks for sharing.

 

[darkxshade]

Kill it nao... I need a new blanket.

 

[Lifted]

Sorry for flushing my condom.

It was only that once. Won't happen again.

 

[sandorski]

Cool, weird, fascinating.

jelly fish eat fish...and that thing is a type of jelly fish

 

[JackBurton]

It looks like a part of BP's oil spill.

 

[MayorOfAmerica]

Why do all deep sea creatures look like my fucking mother in law?

 

[The Boston Dangler]

AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! wtf is that??? nevermind, just get it away from me!

 

[rasczak]

Whale placenta

 

[CPA]

Holy Crap, it's a giant foreskin!

 

[corwin]

Damn...I've seen some cool shit diving before but that beats them all, too bad something like that is a random and rare occurrence...

 

[terry107]

Wow, that's actually kind of creepy. It's amazing how little we know about what's going on deep in the oceans.

I used to audit a driller in Houston. One day they showed us a video of a ROV operator who rescued a fish that was stuck in the substructure underwater. Video is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9LGYupudp8&feature=youtu.be

Marked for later viewing.

I'm still kinda haunted by the images of this thing captured by an oil rig camera:
