Deep Sea Frill Shark

If you look down in the middle you will see a link to a short movie. The movie is of a prehistoric shark! To me this is just wild! I have always said there are creatures out there that we have never found yet. I think this is really awesome! :D

OMG! That is the neatest thing EVER!!!!!!!! The ocean and all of the life living under our seas amazes me to no end. I am obsessed with the show on the Discovery Channel called "Blue Planet: Seas of Life." On one episode they went 3000 feet below sea level! The wildlife at that depth is just mind boggling and so intriguing to me.

That's crazy!!! It's awesome, but it looks like it's dying or something...weird, and the gills are so neat!!

I love deep-sea creatures, this one must have been real confused to have been so close to land and be in so much light, it must have been practically blind!!

Thanks for posting this, that really made my day :D

That was sooooo awesome. I, too, have always thought that we have no idea what animals live in the deepest part of the oceans.

I know when we went to Mammoth Cave they have fish in ponds deep below the service that have no eyes.....they don't need them in the dark. Very amazing to see.

The shark died a couple of hours after filming. It was a creature used to 2000 feet below sea level. It probably came near the surface because it was dying. So sad, but we got to see it, and become aware of it's existance. It could have been missed and not taped.

I saw that on the news and it was just AMAZING - imagine all the life down there no one has seen ?? It's incredible and a little scary
