Hmm, though within minutes of posting I in turn find out they're probably fake (well, in relation to being from the Tsunami..)

Ah well, it's still cool to look at strange deep ocean dwelling creatures

You know the URLs to the pics in the OP are all jacked up, right? At least for me and IE they are.

Jeez, that thing's freaky lookin'! It's like some evil, demonic thing that somehow got pulled from the oceans of Hell and flung onto a beach!
That eye is
seriously weirding me out. Yeah, probably just the camera flash or something, but still...

Woah, those are amazing... I am definitely going to have to draw them later when I should be doing something productive instead
. The chimaera is my favorite (adult.) Very creepy, and definitely it makes me feel warm and fuzzy these kinds of critters exist.
Oh, and I love squid. Both to eat and to admire. That one's too cute to eat though.

It says something when the least offensive thing in the lot is a damn squid.

If you want some of the most bizarre and well adapted organisms on the planet, then the deep sea is the best place.

Yeah: it's face kinda reminded me of the scene of Chucky's head exploding near the end of Child's Play 2...

Ugh, that blobfish was appropriately named. The chimaera pup i found kinda cute, to be honest. Cuter than Ann Widdecombe anyway.

I noticed that the chimera pup fish pic was already first posted in

We got some clingfish over at the Aquarium of the Pacific that resemble the blobfish slightly. They're in a tocuh tank, you can pet them.

Yuck, who'd wanna pet such ugly things? Well, perhaps the clingfish isn't that ugly.
