No, we are not overrun by foreigners (yet), but this giant Mangapinna (Bigfin) squid sure looks like it could be from Mars. These squid are some of the creepiest creatures of the deep.
These squid are a bit camera shy, and like to hang out in the deep ocean, making them quite rare observations. However, the oil company Shell issued a video last year 07 one of his underwater robots unmanned contacting a Mangapinna squid. They found the squid in the Gulf of Mexico near one of the oil rigs of the company.
Why hello, sir Mangapinna squid. Wait until you see how long his tentacles.
The Daily Mail
Wow. Just look at these things! Their tentacles are estimated to be about 26 feet long. This is 15 to 20 times larger than the body of the squid.
The Daily Mail
is believed these squid use their long appendages to find and trap the food on the ocean floor.

I can just imagine being the person who controls it and suddenly encountering rover this alien creature. I'm sure their hearts skipped a beat ... or two.
