yes... from the deep... 5000 feet on the ocean floor...

One of my coworkers dad works on an offshore oil rig or something off the coast of africa... anyways they sent an ROV (remotely operated vehicle) down to about 5000 feet and this creature was hitchhiking on it when it came back up!

Also I just found this story on Yahoo and the guy who posted on reddit is talking about the same pics that I got from my coworker... http://buzz.yahoo.com/buzzlog/93524?fp=1" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Kind of cool to hear the story firsthand and then seeing it go viral I think this thing is awesome!

That thins is NASTY looking, but crazy. Does it have a name? Do scientists know of this?

yes check the yahoo story I linked... here's the link to the original question: http://www.reddit.com/r/science/comment ... a_monster/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

that would be a negitive.

the only thing is, i would need the meat separated first cause even if that thing was boiled to death, i would still swear it would jump at me and eat my soul

*edit* now that i re-read this post, am i the only one who wants to eat THAT thing?

Freaking EW is right! Crustaecians shouldn't be skin colored! I'm not afraid of much, but that makes me uneasy. It reminds me of the thing that attatched itself to the dude's face on ALIEN, and made him have it's baby through his chest!

ok.... i feel a nightmare coming on... GROSS!
