Creatures of the deep (56k) (Not for the faint of heart)

omg the sea is an epic place. some of these creatures are unbeleivable.

this was from another thread a while back.

I've always liked the prehistoric beast of the sea, such as the well known Megalodon:

Megalodon was scary, damn, 15 meters long or so. Imagine him circling you on a sinking boat...

Anyway, I just looked this thread from start to finish, and I gotta say those are some awesome pics. Wanted: Hi-def Nessie pic, reward - above $10,000:roll:

No idea if there is any actual evidence of this ever existing, could only find this artist's depiction. Still, very scary to think about.

There has been documented reports of unidentified sounds picked up by hydrophone arrays. Sounds which scientists claim could only have come from a sea creature, much, much larger then that of the Blue Whale.

Don't know if you heard of the Slow Down. Or the Bloop.

It's a nice drawing. I always like the idea of big leviathans.I've started to study a bit of marine biolagy just recently, since i'm slowly overcoming my phobia of sea creatures. Although I think it's that fear that makes me so fascinated with them.

:cry: The Goblin Shark gives me nightmares.

The more I filter through this thread, the more I've come to love the Blobfish. It's kind of adorable in a completely hideous way.

Yeah, I read about those a little while back. They only instill even more wonderment in me. I am just fascinated by deep sea life and I pray that whatever made those sounds is discovered before I die. I need know and see what it is!

I've said it before and I'll say it again: This thread is one of the best ever created on GS. It's actually inspired me to write a small article on deep sea creatures for my students as part of my school newspaper. I hope they enjoy it!
