what the hell is this creature

Whatever it is, it's clearly our duty to kill it now before it breeds.

It hurts me that what you said is probably true. Mankind is the worst creature and is responsible for the extinction of so many creatures. Cross breeding dogs so they can entertain people only to have them terminated is a crime which goes unpunished.

I always find creatures fascinating.

Called a Deepstaria enigmatica jellyfish. Pretty awesome seeing weird creatures like that.

Bit disappointed the OP posts a video and it is allowed to turn into a thread but you've just closed another thread that did exactly the same thing that I wanted to take part in.
Just saying like.

Yeah, is getting a bit ridiculous now, seems like people like to just create a thread and just link something. Threads are for open discussions, not linking and running. If it happens again then I will lock and leave a message. Will leave these two as they have started a good discussion already. :)
 
the question was in the title of the thread what is it ? not just a link and run . or shall i edit that to do the same ?
i if thought i knew i would have said i think its this or that but it was a question not a statement..
 
MAY 11,2012 UPDATE:

Steven Haddock, a scientist for the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute in Moss Landing, Calif., says that the mysterious creature is a Deepstaria enigmatica jellyfish, much to the chagrin of some Reddit users who thought it was a whale placenta.

"This bag-like jelly is not that rare, but is large, so rarely seen intact," Haddock said on his "JellyWatch" Facebook page. "In the video, the swirling from the sub makes the medusa appear to undulate and it even turns inside-out."

This type of jellyfish is usually found in the south Atlantic Ocean, some 5,000 feet below. According to the Marine Species Identification Portal, the jellyfish has "oral arms terminating in curious hook-shaped organ."
