OH LAWDY! That’s an amazing picture! I initially thought it was a Photoshop, but I looked at the page it came from and it appears to be the real deal.

Those people are pretty brave touching it’s tentacles like that....although the Colossus squid has the particularly nasty rotating hooks inside the rings, the Giant squid’s are pretty formidable as well, with the rings surrounded by circular saws, and I’ll bet they’re really sharp! (Please see post #9 of this thread if you haven’t already)

Just an astonishing picture, thanks very much for posting.
(although I’m not sure if I will be able to sleep tonight....that big eye will be haunting me!)
