i dont know what i would to if i saw one myself.

check out the amazing colors, blue, reddish silver.. and the facial features. almost like its looking at you.

Neat!

It's interesting that there were two of them, they must be social/schooling fish.  I wonder why they decided to snuff it?

WHOA!
That thing is crazy lookin!!!

PK

May put to rest the question of monster at sea sighting ?

simply WOW
Sad though, life sure is full of strange and wonderful things!!

From youtube.


There is a little oarfish also.  This video is of the giant one.  The fish is nearly invisible.

Wow that was sad and cool at the same time. Too bad they couldn't save it.
