The giant squid has always been an element of horror or suspense in thrillers or cartoons. But at last this creature has been caught on tape in the Japanese sea.

This is the first time a full grown squid has been caught on camera and in its natural habitat. The camera was controlled by a remote control, and it caught the 8 meter squid in activity; going after a prey at 900 meters deep.
