Monterey canyon deep creatures

[bedmund]

I'm putting this in the NorCal forum but it could also belong in marine life. I found an issue of National Geographic (June 04) that has an article about Monterey Canyon. In the article is a sidebar with links which I've posted below. The links are of video shot from a rig hanging 6000 feet down into the canyon. You gotta check out these creatures.

And to think they're only a few thousand feet below me in the water column. :11:

Always wondered what was down in the inky black at Monastery North...

That's cool! I'll have to free dive down there sometime to check it out.

You could view live feed at the aquarium but sadly I just read on another board that they no longer have that exhibit.
