This is a video captured off the coast of Sanriku, Japan at a depth of 5,350-meters (~3.3 miles) of a Subspinctoria cinerea. What the hell is a Subspinctoria cinerea? You’re looking at it. It appears to be half shrimp, half fairy, and 100% from the Lost City Of Atlantis. Now we just need to follow it back to Atlantis and steal all of their advanced technology. You think they’ve got x-ray glasses? I bet they’ve got x-ray glasses, and I call dibs on them. Plus a potion that lets you breathe underwater. “It’s called scuba gear.” Please, mermaids don’t go after guys using scuba gear.

Keep going for the video.
