Giant Squid
Yes, its real. Now, before you go ahead a plan that yacht trip in the Caribbean just remember this guy will be just underneath the water with you. Even though this squid has a history of being mythical or the product of scruffy sailor tales, in 2005 researcher Tsunemi Kubodera succeeded in filming a live specimen. Records show that the largest recorded was a whopping 59 feet long and are considered the largest living invertebrates on Earth. With eight tentacles, enormous eyes and a fearsome beak, its no shock these creatures are able to feed on small whales, yes whales. Can anyone say calamari?
