Vampire Squid from Hell (3200 Feet Under Sea Level)

Uploaded by: QuarksAreStrange
Video Description:
Unfortunately, I can't find the exact name of the original film but I found out who the producer of the original film is: National Geographic, online at:
http://www.nationalgeographic.com/ My French version is "Creatures des abysses" and it was aired on "Tele-Quebec". The song is "The big clapper" by "Two lone swordsmen" on their album "Stay Down" (1998). ABOUT THE VAMPIRE SQUID: Vampyroteuthis infernalis, lit. "Vampire squid from hell") is a
small, deep-sea cirrate cephalopod found throughout the temperate and tropical oceans of the world. Unique retractile sensory filaments justify the Vampire Squid's placement in its own order: Vampyromorphida. It was first described and mistakenly identified as an octopus in 1903 by German teuthologi
st Carl Chun. More info at: - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire_Squid ABOUT ITS ENVIRONMENT: 3,281 FEET: Bathypelagic zone. 1 Km = 100 atm = 1,470 psi. The ocean is dark at this level; the only glow is from bioluminescent animals. There are no living plants, and creatures subsist by eating the d
ebris that falls from the levels above (aka "marine snow"), including dead or dying fish and plankton. More info down to 36,201 feet (pression : 8.07 tons per square inch!!!) at: - http://planktonforum.org/viewtopic.php?t=327
