Probably one of the MOST facinating and educational videos I’ve ever seen! Haven’t been able to get it off my mind. Now, today I hear on my local TV news channel here in British Columbia Canada, that the Humboldt Squid have started washing up on our Vancouver Island beaches in the hundreds!!

Amazing video, one of the cooler creature encounters. A little bit like playing with fire though.

I’ve dived at night and can tell you it like swimming in ink. They of course had better lights then I had but I can tell you it is very unnerving experience to things come at you out of the dark and disappear just as quick; especially if they are bigger and tougher then you are. I have to agree with foo…everyone in the water has to get credit

Groundbreaking, maybe the flashing lights were some kind of communication to the squid.

Shame on you! The last fifteen minutes of the show was an all too typical “dumbed down” presentation following the Crocodile Hunter-esque model of, “I’m going to do something dangerous for no substantial reason.”. Please, please, please don’t cave in to this, “viewership doesn’t want to have to think (too much” mentality. Nature’s intellectual content is WHY I prefer it over all of the cable produced “educational” drivel.

I watched the program on tpt in MN Sunday night. It was utterly fascinating. It definitely made me wonder what else is in the sea yet to be discovered. The photography was marvelous. I hoped there would be a CD available which I could give to my son-in-law.
