It’s A Giant Squid Egg!

Check out this encounter between a trio of divers and a drifting gelatinous blob that is as big as an adult human. The divers found this blob, which is really a squid’s egg sac, off the western coast of Norway. Inside the blob are numerous eggs holding baby squids, which are estimated to be in the hundreds of thousands.

A video captured and shared on YouTube on Oct. 6 by Ronald Raasch, a diver with the Norwegian research vessel REV Ocean, shows a diver slowly circling a spherical blob surrounded by a transparent membrane, with a dark mass suspended inside.

Amazing!
