Japanese fisherman found a living deep-sea Frilled Shark this week. Although science did know about this shark before now, it has rarely been seen alive, and this has got to be the best video footage ever taken of the eel-like “living fossil”. Deep-sea creatures are so cool.

That is pretty dang awesome. I saw some pics of fish in the abyss. They look like ALIENS.
?????? wooooo, it looks like a ghost. brr. reminds me of mum.
how cool, though. I want to know more. Ditto on the aliens, Krazihello. I need a cup of tea… and a biscuit or two…
I’m sure this creature might give sharks a scare given its unusually ferocious look….
Have you been able to study it anf find anything usefull? age, sex, ext.
I wish that I had been the one to find this shark, but alas, I am not a researcher, I am just the yo-yo man. While I am a big fan of science, and marine life in particular, in this case I am just the messenger bringing news of something cool. I am sure that the people who have the actual animal are studying it at great length.

THIS IS SO GROSS I HATE SHARKS\
I think that may be my favorite comment yet! I like it that this shark grossed you out so much that you had to leave a comment. Not just anything will inspire that kind of reaction.
i like this freaky thing! it reminds me of something you would find in a fiction novel and that’s kool 2 me. it leaves the possibility of other creatures being true and real. and no im not demented im just quirky ;P
