I remember when I was little, hearing that they had no real recorded evidence of the giant squid. It immediately created this massive sense of excitement and wonder as to what else could be swimming around in the ocean.

I still to this day am in absolute fascination of random pictures that show up of creatures from places like the Mariana Trench. It just boggles my tiny brain that so much biological diversity exists.

Here's a few that popped up on Reddit the other day -- http://imgur.com/a/xkfSv

"And lo on the seventh day, God slammed a bunch of shit He wasn't finished with down at the bottom of a trench and hoped that nobody would notice."
