Giant Squids - Terror From the Depths of the Ocean

[@rhiannonm8132]

i LOVE the scientists who narrate the NOAA ROV feed, they’re so fun, i recommend everyone watch the livestreams here on youtube it’s super interesting even tho there’s rarely as much action as an entire bigfin squid! shoutout to dr. “magna peena? oh man look at him” i like her commentary a lot

[@daniell1483]

What's even more wild is how long the squid family has been on Earth. Some of the first apex predators in history were distant relations of what we think of as "giant squids".

[@nouhorni3229]

And those had hard mineralised shells. We'll probably never know much about the soft shelled squid ancestry.

[@disky01]

Deep-sea life is so fascinating and terrifying. Whenever I feel like I'd like to go exploring, I remember playing Subnautica and think better of it. Your hair is really cute in this one Danielle! Thanks as always!

[@EKaDab]

There’s finally going to be a Subnautica 2!

[@MaliciousMollusc]

*ALL HAIL THE SQUID!!!*

[@tomholroyd7519]

Sci fi celebrates land squid. They hunt at night, why are you walking in the forest?

[@microska2656]

I freaking love your enthusiasm, keep up!

8:51 praised be His Noodly Appendages

The Giant Squid is basically the crown jewel for all deep sea explorers when they keep on doing their research down there. Who knows what’s truly lurking down there in the depths?

[@chanboy2524]

Ur moms the crown jewel

[@AncientWildTV]

agree, the deep sea is one of the least explored environments on Earth, and the Giant Squid represents the mysterious life forms that inhabit these depths.

[@megadiabrous]

yasss i love the hair Danielle

[@seansingh4421]

Ehhh

[@nicholasschoonbeck6866]

The great calamari is the most ambitious human name for such a creature. lol

[@Preston241]

And apparently tastes like salted black liquorice. It would be quite something.

[@maoama]

Man like ten years watching you? Thanks for being a total sweetheart/champ.

[@TotallyACat]

Best video I’ve ever watched. I’m even not squiding.

[@katherineg9396]

Oooooooooh . . .

[@animalogic]

🤣

[@DeleriumLS]

My sons and I would love a video on Vultures, most specifically the Bearded Vulture! YAY!

[@bryantgrove6199]

Please do mountain lions next.

[@PirvateerKurei]

I remember watching a documentary years ago, maybe in the early 2000s about the giant squid. It looked so much like melted cheese with stringy arms and very little was known and the CGI at the time was fascinating. I hadn't heard about the colassal squid until 10 years ago and today I am learning of a 3rd relative? Amazing!

[@Preston241]

Same. What a time to be alive.

[@Penfold101]

The Flying Spaghetti Momster appreciates you mentioning his Noodly Appendages multiple times. Ramen.

[@raffivartanian1718]

Genius comment

[@crazkurtz]

You should do an art show with all your drawings

[@markedis5902]

I like the new look

[@Sound557]

I for one welcome our new, cephalopod overlords

[@ikej1200]

Can't be worse than our current politicians

[@cameronlilly4814]

Much more intelligent and able than Justin Trudeau.

[@bloomins8088]

So amazing that we've managed to see videos of these things alive in our lifetime.

[@fleafrier1]

Asking once again for the epaulette shark, the cutest in the ocean.

[@Rizzbulla]

Unmatched animal drawing skills.

[@kandrinchae]

I love your glasses! You look great! Also, love squids! I have drawn a couple kraken pieces. :)

[@HappyHomeHunter]

Love your art Danielle. Keep up the great work.

[@kimbratton9620]

Your videos are always worth watching!!

[@snowstacks]

great vid as always team 👍 love the necklace danielle

[@Maya-ev4mn]

you're such a beauty in this episode

[@JustinR150]

Been watching this channel for years. Love you 🫶🏽

[@Astrapionte]

Danielle, you are an icon and one of my biggest inspirations artistically. This colossal squid that you just drew is absolutely breathtaking!!! ❤❤💛💛

[@gossamer999]

It should be pointed out that ambergris is, in the USA, illegal to possess or trade. So no career changing for any of us sadly. I believe Australia and India are the other countries that have laws against it too.

[@darkop3191]

Shorter generations with a huge size predator is crazy.

[@lucasmendoza7576]

That's part of why they're so ravenous. They go from being aroun 5 inches long to that massive size in only a few years, so they have to eating constantly to fuel that growth.

[@MrJones-ue2tw]

Danielle looking like a snack as usual

[@710view]

Her jawline prolly stronger thank yours 💀

[@shmackydoodRon]

“SQUEEED!” is what my wife says when calamari is on the menu. She likes squid.

[@ivanskavinskiskavar6242]

I thought that this was gonna be about squids. Instead, it was all about Gobby Gabby, the fish lady. BUMMER.

[@Dmitry-Moiseenko]

Great video, thank you!

[@huldu]

I wouldn't be surprised if they travel across dimensions.

[@chaosmarklar]

I for one welcome our new tentacled overlords, in a few hundred million years when they are the dominant life form and start space travel

[@SliceofLife7777]

The cockroachs will exploit them for their awful flesh.

[@hyperthermophile23]

This is so cool and interesting and I'm excited for the future when we know more and you can make an update video about it!

[@KatherineHugs]

Great content!! As always 😊

[@joshualaird5303]

The sketching is a nice touch

[@gracesiegel7849]

First and foremost, I love this channel! Your videos are so much fun! They're edifying yet approachable and academic without being lecture-y or patronizing!! Keep being your epic selves I do have a fun idea that could become a series of sorts. It sometimes comes up in the behind the scenes parts or the video itself, but I'm curious about the "favorites" for the team(cast and crew) fave/least fave: animals, plants, geological history phases(?), videos to make, places to film/visit, preferences in animal/subject to film... maybe also maybe videos that involve and focus on the crew, what they do, how they got interested, what to do to do that job… That kind of thing

[@Symphing12]

Could we see something about the Monodontidae? I love whales and particularly the beluga and narwhal!

[@J.A.Smith2397]

Great video footage!

[@mecahhannah]

Awesome as always thanks ❤

[@Jaggerbush]

Danielle, you look sophisticated (and beautiful)

[@dianaskarbek2664]

She is and fabulous artist

[@ivanov1112]

I remember that first video in 2004 in the dawn of the smartphone era. I thought it was the coolest footage I had seen in my life at the time. Maybe it's because I live in the Midwest and the closest I've been to a squid is the nearest Asian restaurant... It's sad really

[@SylvanDraconis]

Fun fact, the Lusca is actually supposed to be a creature with the front half of a shark and the back half of a giant squid/octopus. Think “sharktopus”

[@neapaulatan]

Omg I can't believe I've found your channel again after four years !

[@PeterGriffin11]

7:11 The eye on that Squid looks terrifying

[@Alanpie314]

"The V-shaped stream of light across the beak is the last thing [the squid's prey] sees." Since the beasts are supposed to live a mile under water, there isn't much light. That's why sperm whales use echo-location to find them.

[@talanigreywolf7110]

From what I've heard, the Magnapinna that have been filmed were juveniles.

[@Vuintējinotsuma]

Squid always remind me of Splatoon I love them

[@wanderlustwarrior]

I don't know why, but as a kid I thought squid had 6 legs. I think I might've seen a simplified image in a children's book.

[@Marie45610]

The thing that makes the ocean scary, them and Jellyfish.

[@DeDeimos1]

I always find it impressive that octopuses are among the most intelligent animals, but have such a short lifespan.

[@LukeMcGuireoides]

She makes the art?! Wow, what a woman

[@jessesims6232]

How long until we see a TikTok about “I just had giant squid steak at this crazy restaurant!”

[@jumangi2322]

Animalogic is just one of the best shows 😎🖤💙🫡🇺🇸🇹🇹

[@Bob-b7x6v]

Colossal Squid might become endangered. The Chinese fishing fleet is stripping the Southern Ocean of their primary food source, the Patagonian Toothfish/ Chilean Sea Bass.

[@Koolasookis]

Well that’s concerning

[@deborahdanhauer8525]

Seahorses!!❤️🐝🤗

[@jojomafia3851]

YES!!!

[@Bob-b7x6v]

You want to be afraid of a squid, never fall overboard in the Gulf of California near Baja, you'll be Humboldt Squid fodder. They're like 6+ ft. 10-armed pirahnas.

[@MMPAspergerian]

Thank you DD!

[@Mkaythen]

🧽: Eeh Squidward? 🐙: “I’m not a squid you dolt!”

[@grrlpurpleable]

Still hoping for a coffee table picture book of your awesome illustrations!

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- I love *squid && octopus !* 🦑🐙 ♥️

[@martinsachs3837]

Measuring squid with their tentacles is like measuring the lenght of a horse with its tail and tongue stretched out. Let's stay with 250kg, the size of a dolphin.

[@leannaerickson9745]

Once again you've come up with a fascinating subject. The EVNautilus channel has some interesting squid sightings, too. Did you know that Sperm Whales spout at an angle of about 45 degrees, not straight up? It's kind of hard to tell from drone photos, but the whales in the video seem to have not gotten this memo yet.🦑🐳

[@NWforager]

back in the day we had a whole trawler full of giant squids to move onto a shipping tramper . it was the most unwieldy otherworldly experience . talk about alien autopsy times 10k

[@markg1490]

Excellent video

[@codydelisle1305]

Danielle is looking great these days!!! yaaassss bish💙💙🙌🙌🙌

[@aaron271db9]

After watching this video I had a sudden compulsion to unlock my Illithid potential

[@luzmarinavillafane8779]

Superintetesante. Felicitaciones!😊

[@user-ie1so5rn5k]

make a video about prehistoric squids/cephalopods!

[@midnight_snack6608]

Emperor Penguins next :3

[@MrRedFoxorMrelzorrorojo]

Here's the thing... These cephalopods look badass AF but they are prey to Sperm Whales. So Sperm Whales are really badass.

[@shanicestella2226]

The Lord of the Squid

[@supertyfon1736]

I wonder if you guys will make an episode on howler monkey's.

[@darthcheney7447]

Mmmm. Love your art.

[@djgenxx]

Love you Danielle! This time the music was a bit of a miss.

[@Yabuturtle]

And people thought they were made up. xD It shows that we are not even close to covering ever square inch of this planet.

[@alsigerpro]

isopod next

[@DreamDaddie]

Yay! New episode!

[@armandoguzmannieves5472]

The map you used doesn’t have Puerto Rico, but shows islands smaller than it.

[@BlackReaper0]

I love these guys

[@bretfisher7286]

I like 'em. In a sandwich. They're crunchy. Nom, nom.

[@atmo-sphere6799]

4:33 don't think I don't notice that pun now.

[@reinas5880]

if i could never hear the phrase "bouquet of arms" again that'd be great

[@Styphon]

Sponges & Starfish next?

[@katherineg9396]

If squids and octopuses had thumbs, it would all be over for the humans.

[@conorsirishnature998]

Bigfins are long but weigh very little. The dana octopus squid is the third largest after the colossal and giant squid.

[@lars_g_sorensenswitzerfoot6677]

I would eat a giant squid. With mayo. On a bun. Toasted. With a little salt and pepper.

[@edwardspencer3906]

Squidward!!!

[@SMac86]

Great calamari...so tasty sounding 😋

[@QuantumCat76]

5:55 Which also makes them taste like salty licorice...which is pretty gnarly The Dutch: 😏😋🍴

[@twolfpack0012]

I have to ask. Where did you get your necklace?! I want one so bad!

[@erickj.933]

Tentacruel of real world😍

[@DankUrbanBoss]

Mermaids next!

[@rynieryarom4277]

I love that as camera became more accessible and powerful, giant squid sighting increase. And krakens are confirmed reals not just orcas penises

[@DelfinoGarza77]

Magrathea?!?!? 42!!!

[@rossgraham7649]

Green Basilisk up next please...!!!!!!!

[@rubenkoker1911]

tastes like salty liquorice you say? i think plenty of dutch and finnish people would like to eat a gians squid
