A group of scientists onboard the Schmidt Ocean Institute's research vessel Falkor captured a video of a colossal squid, the heaviest invertebrate on the planet, in the South Atlantic Ocean
00:00On a deep sea species discovery expedition in the South Sandwich Islands, Schmidt Ocean, in partnership with Ocean Census, have captured the first live footage of a small colossal squid in the deep sea at home. It is the first confirmed live footage of this animal in the Antarctic deep sea.
00:30This animal is so beautiful. It helps us to shine a bit of a light on the animal without some of that monster.
00:59Frenzy hype that we may get when we eventually do see a large colossal squid and are hoping that with some more opportunities to get down to the Antarctic, we will have the chance to film larger individuals as well.
