When a former professor of mine and his team went to study those cuties during the 90's, one of his colleagues got attacked and pulled further down by four of them simultaniously. He saved himself by reacting quickly and releasing compressed air right at them, which scared them off. In 2009 this guy got invited by my professor to tell us about his experiences as a marine biologist and he showed us his left lower arm, where he got injured the worst. That squid actually bit such a huge junk out of his arm that the doctors had to replace it with a piece from his calf. As someone who's slightly thalassophobic, that's pretty much the worst situation I could think of. On the other hand, being able to show the scars you got from an underwater fistfight against a bunch of man-eating squids is probably worth the risk. :

In the late 90's I was night diving off a boat in San Diego, and we were there for the Opalescent squid. During the surface interval between dives the captain told us he was going to move. Another boat a 1/2 mile away had radioed and told him they had spotted Humboldt near them. We moved down the coast to another site so we wouldn't run the risk of having Humboldt come in on us.

I think if it was being harassed it would easily swim away or give off a cloud of ink to warn the divers. Since it's staying close to the diver, allowing itself to be held onto and only bites him for a second means it's completely comfortable, feels safe and only gave a warning bite.

I went on a night dive in the Florida Keys once, with just a flashlight and the usual scuba equipment. After seeing a few different creatures like a pair of small squids, I eventually came across a green moray eel in its crevice. I remember it being pretty big too. As soon as I saw it in the flashlight’s beam, the eel looked agitated and started to swim out the entrance. So I calmly turned the light away from from the eel’s face and backed away, while it swam past me and slid into a different hiding spot. After we went back up, the guide said that she herself was feeling tense for a moment, until she saw that I was treating the eel correctly, giving the fish its space, and not provoking it into an altercation. During my daytime dives, I did see lots of other creatures like huge lobsters, parrotfish, barracudas, anemones, a decent-sized shark, and so on. But that night dive was the highlight for me.

What if the squid calls for backup (kraken)

[@tonberryknight3725]

They should be thankful if its the kraken but if the back up is Chuthulhu. Holy mother of god. Jesus christ save us.

The ocean is essentially like being in outer space, except with a ton of creatures that can eat you or attack you at any second. I’m a certified PADI scuba diver as well and I still feel this way

@@accessdenied5998 cuz we already know what's down there, more or less the same biology we've always known. even the most alien things, chemosynthesis has been studied extensively already. the reason we still say 5% is because we haven't been there physically, and biology is a field where things can be superposed onto the rest of life, but finding cool little tweakings in metabolisms or hunting habits etc. will be nice

The squid is literally screaming "I DON'T LIKE THIS LET GO OF ME RIGHT NOW!" by flashing those colors. Which is understandable since they've essentially got it by shoving fingers in what passes for its nose. No wonder it's scared and angry.
