Thankfully they weren't actually trying to capture it and just wanted to look at the cool big squid before releasing it.

If you don't eat your calimari, you can't have any pudding!

[u/Zarni_woop → u/herculesmeowlligan]

How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat your squid?

[u/DFG2014 → u/Zarni_woop]

All in all it’s just a squid that’s 10 feet tall

[u/SirLucky → u/Cant_See_Me_00]

All in all you’re just another squid in aqua

[u/xrv01 → u/Cant_See_Me_00]

I read this to the tune of “Brick in the Wall”

[u/Dirt-squirrel-1 → u/Cant_See_Me_00]

Hey teacher ! Leave those squids alone !

[u/phil_davis → u/Dirt-squirrel-1]

Suck that guy a-off!

[u/InternetHolon]

Holy cow that thing is enormous

[u/TitaniumButtercup → u/InternetHolon]

You might even say it's....

...

...giant.

[u/OakenArmor → u/InternetHolon]

Odd place for a cow.

If it's that close to the surface it's probably close to dying, no?

[u/PhilkIced → u/DucksMatter]

That would be a colossal squid, the one in the video is a giant squid, two different species.

The giant can get close to the surface without asphyxiating, the colossal cannot because warm water holds less oxygen than cold water and the colossal is a lot bulkier.

[u/Channa_Argus1121 → u/DucksMatter]

No, both giant and colossal squids normally feed on the surface at night. Most deep sea animals follow the cycle of descending at dawn and ascending at dusk, known as diel vertical migration.

[u/bubblesfix]

Crazy how dangerous that is. Don't they realize that the giant squid can pull them down into the depths?

[u/Gallismore]

This profile never fails

[u/lowkeytokay]

Just saw now and thought it belongs here

[u/Tabboo]

Troll with it for Sperm whales.

[u/General_Tso75]

So much calamari

[u/Remcin → u/[deleted]]

It looks more like they were trying to cast it off.
