  Some Giant Squid with Your Coffee?
Two Japanese scientists filmed a giant squid 900 meters underwater off the Ogasawara Islands in the North Pacific. How cool is that? No one's ever photographed a giant squid before. And to make it even cooler, "Architeuthis"—that's the squid—"appears to be a much more active predator than previously suspected, using its elongate feeding tentacles to strike and tangle prey."

Excellent!

Here's their report in the Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
