Architeuthis Video

No, it's not an old sea myth or a bad horror movie.

This giant squid, the 26-foot long Architeuthis, was captured on camera by a team led by Tsunemi Kubodera, from the National Science Museum in Tokyo, as it attacked prey nearly 3,000 feet deep off the coast of Japan's Bonin islands.

The video of the squid in its natural habitat was taken in the fall of 2004. I suppose they have their reasons, but I don't understand why they would keep this cool news quiet for over a year.
