While exploring the Tonga Trench in the Southwestern Pacific Ocean, researchers captured extremely rare footage of a Magnapinna squid with arms several times the length of its body. And, yes, it was walking. @LiveScience has the footage: https://flip.it/eHKEAp

@[email protected] @LiveScience I find this depressing, "Most documented bigfin squid sightings are 'serendipitous filming from oil and gas activities...'"

This post is not accurate. There is no video of any type of squid. This is an article saying that footage exists, but does not link to any source. There is a still image of the type of sea creature that is referenced.

@AlexsandraSmart @LiveScience Actually, we watched the video that is part of the article. So, it's there, but it possibly loaded slowly. Or there was some other glitch you experienced.

Sorry. Must have been the ad blocker. I tried a different browser and it worked.

@[email protected] @LiveScience Glad it worked! Pretty amazing footage, right?
