This rather awesome video comes to the Great Beyond’s attention via Deep Sea News. It shows a massive (and I mean massive) six-gill shark having a look at some bait and the submersible filming it 1000 metres under the surface.

The two laser dots in the film are 15 cm apart, meaning the whole shark is about five and half metres long. As University of Hawaii researcher Jeff Drazen says on the commentary “Holy crap. Oh my God! It’s huge! … This guy’s got a metre wide head.”
