Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

| General BS forum I guess anything is fair game in here. Just watch the subject matter doesn't get carried away too much. |

but the squid might have been much bigger, their calculations were based on the assumption that the tentacle shapped at the base

That is so neat. I knew that eventually someone would get a giant squid on video, it was just a matter of time. No one really knows how large these things can get. Giant squid have left marks on blue whales, the largest whale. So if they are attacking blue whales, they must grow to enormous proportions.

I believe that both Jamie & Adam would have to agree that urban myths found on old sea bearing maps of Giant Squid attacking boats in the middle of the sea is now Plausible!
I am sure Buster is relieved that he doesn't have to prove this myth.

i dont think its blue whales, though i could be wrong i havent looked it up. But i know for a fact that they do leave scars on Sperm Whales since im pretty positive the Giant squid makes up a decent size of their diet.
we dont even know that much about sperm whales since every time they try to film fromt he backs of these animals the recorder falls off and they also cant go as deep as the whales dive i guess...
I was so excited though when i heard about this! ( i know it was forever ago but i just stumbled upon this thread!! sorry! >_< lol ) I mean who would have thought that wed FINALLY see some living footage of these guys!? ^_^ so awsome!

Here is something I found on google video. A squid taking on a shark, scale this up, and I believe it is what it would look if a giant squid took on a whale.
