The NOAA website has videos and heaps more pictures too.

I misread the caption for this one as "We imagined this purple octopus with large glassy eyes during dive #8."

Not technically a fish, but some of this footage was part of Killer Whale documentary just shown on Channel Five here in UK. These orcas are both ingenious and highly social. Swimming together in a pack of about six and then diving to create a wave? And then doing a bit of practice with the same seal. Clever fuckers.

The Top Comment on that is
"I am never gonna find Patrick".

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

 

[Mr. Tea]

Heh.

From the octopus article:

"Just before the bird died, I actually said to my husband, 'Isn't someone going to go down there and try and save that seagull?'"

Yeah, cos seagulls are like totally going extinct. Stupid hippy cunt.

"Realistically, that octopus was too daunting," she said. "You get those little images in your mind of getting grabbed by the octopus yourself and pulled in. They're very primitive, intimidating creatures up close."

Apart from the fact that they're more intelligent than most mammals. And some Canadians, apparently.
