Scientists discover shrimp below Antarctic ice

[samhainaz]

Sounds like extremophiles. thats nothing new and not only limited to bacteria.

[JayEm74]

LOL even the marine biologist are baffled. nice

explore our world first

[joseph30040]

its amazing that multicellular life lives in that area i thought that only microbes lived there

[aarondavid826]

this proves god doesn't exist

[burningthepast4ever]

@aarondavid826 YES!!!!... and Fidel Castro is a dictator.

[aarondavid826]

@burningthepast4ever I'm guessing your a catholic

[burningthepast4ever]

@aarondavid826 may be you're right but, I don't know what kind of alcoholic I am.

[kidvegas77]

lol hahaha NASA? lmao ,,,

[hilololomoa]

one ugly fucking shrimp

[Xceles618]

I would love to see more of these critters we still have no idea whats under all that ice in the artic regions of the earth....its ok for nasa to study these things considering its not easy to find things in those climates.

[pear406]

NASA= National Aeronautics and Space Association. They're studying marine biology under the arctic shelf. Lol wut.

[goodoldjam]

Really, you don't think NASA should study the planet they're on? I don't know why is so odd.

[galacticSatisfaction]

They do a lot of different things.

They almost always have done 100 different things

[junkie4vids]

This is fantastic! Shrimp already on ice. Just add cocktail sauce and ready to eat !

[justandgaby]

Fake just like Evolution..

[SunSin1000]

we were surprised because thy were surprised.what is this gomer pile surprise surprise.

[Flash1958ful]

I think the biggest reason that evolution is such a success, is the lack of scrutiny amoungst those who herald it. Time and Time again they grab weak fossil evidence to back up their claims, never asking The Question. but instead laying their heads on the rocks that they worship and putting faith in a theory. talk about a religion of doom

[SuperEnoughAlready]

@Flash1958ful Amen!

[VTnumb]

@Flash1958ful That's a statement of pure ignorance. Evolution goes under massive scrutiny and has been changing ever since it was first suggested. The theory isn't based solely on fossils but incorporates DNA. Each new gnome decoded supports the theory as a whole, but the micro-advancements are constantly redefining the theory. That is the whole point of a theory--being able to redefine and support the general concept. Theories are empirical and not just simple statements like creation.

[Flash1958ful]

@VTnumb if thats what you believe

[Flash1958ful]

@VTnumb you really should go back....and re-read

[Flash1958ful]

When you peeps find out what holds the atom itself together, you will have your answers. I know.

[keggerous]

hahahahahaha and ppl say extraterrestrial life doesnt exist . . .

[Broodkill]

the ice looks beautiful

[HwarangOfFaith]

aaaaaa

[oogaboogan]

Look at all the fags arguing. Good old youtube.

[mickeymaster007]

VG:

Video film of the shrimp-like creature has in recent days gone around the world. This despite the fact that these crustaceans are very common and live well by what they find to eat under the ice in both the Arctic and Antarctica.

- If NASA had turned the camera and filmed farther down, they would have found a rich bottom communities. Although drilling was made a bit from the ice, there are openings toward the sea, "said Jorgen Berge, professor of marine biology at UNIS on Svalbard to VG.

Its Chuck Norris,poo.After 24 hours it turn into superman schrimps,whit self glowing features,aswell as a brain of an average american politican.And some day they take over the earth.

[captainmurphy52]

the only shrimp there...lonely shrimp.

[Felixvas92]

why the ice looks so weird? :S

[sacred123100]

why do they care about shrimp-like creatures anyways....besides its even just a shrimp...

[doogrisa]

bubba gump shrimp

[musicprotector1231]

wel.. there are in fact planets completely or mostly, covered by ice.. including some of saturn moons.. (and i think jupiter's moons as well), so this could prove that maybe there are complex life-forms elsewere without warm temperature or light..

[goranification]

Big deal for that.

[Monkee626]

oh you are just sho cute! but really, it's just a shrimp. now we can just say that you can find shrimp in a very cold place, just like you can say that an octopus can eat sharks

[6SpAr6TAN69]

thats a huge hole... the antarctic oceam must be a huuuuuuuge... bitch

[hkabao12]

@6SpAr6TAN69 I like your ..style. xD

[byrd1525]

Everyone is underestimating what this means. There are many planets that are completely covered by ice. This discovery makes it quite more realistic for intelligent life to exist elsewhere than earth. Wouldn't this overthrow the popular equation that estimated the probability for intelligent life in the universe? Since the equation was narrowed down to warm planets like earth?

[gorakification]

@byrd1525 It's not necssarily sentient life. The equation that you're thinking of is the Drake Equation, and it's a probability equation. It only accounts for other civilizations that exist within the Milky Way, not planets with life.

[coffey3c]

@byrd1525 Interestingly enough, it's been a thought for a while. The thing to remember is, that even though the Antarctic is cold by our standards, it's still a place that has liquid water. On a planetary scale, it's not outside of the range of temps for the life zone abound a given star, or the types of planets we look for. One thought might be to grow a pure food type algae in the pure waters of Europa. Not possible on earth. Moral issues there, but a neat idea.

[Hemitris]

this could mean that there will be higher life forms under the seas of the moon Europa

[x0skater0x]

i read the article, didn't know it had a video.

[lovelycarmz4]

kewl

[HughToober]

My cousins a nurse...

She had a patient with a hamster in his icehole..

[neSarang3528]

lol imagine a bunch of scientists hovering over a monitor screen because they're fascinated by a shrimp having fun with tha camera

[Baldoxxx4000]

wow what a waste, at least make a shrimp scampy out of it....

[marioeduardo222]

'' we were just surprised to see what we foud so deep in our hole'' LOL!

[goranification]

that Shrimp is famous now, just because he swim around the cable.

[ksoadc7890]

and this is beneficial to the human race...how?

[DjGio1000]

let's think "scientifically"

that place must've been so cold and maybe less than -20 degree C !!! that must've been some kinda new species of somethin'.

now let's think "fantastically"

maybe this is an unordinary shrimp !! maybe God chose him to be one of the shrimp to have a humantorch like power !! which can heat it self !!! that's why the shrimp can survive !!!

hahahahahaa

[PiroPR69]

lol "we were amazed of what we saw at the bottom of our hole", now which hole is that?

[coffey3c]

In fact, there have been tons of pictures and films of penguins eating little Antarctic ice shrimp. They perch in little divots in the bottom of the ice eating plankton and algae etc. They really get torn into by the penguins near the edges of open water, so it would seem that the major part of their population being away from predation by air breathing species would make sense. Its remarkable, but not unexpected. NASA: no wonder we've not found life out there yet, if this got to them.

[wetman30]

MMMMMMM shrimp.

[wirechair]

i think that there's a world of things in both the arctic and Antarctic we haven't discovered yet!

[parcour101]

I think he got lost amiright?

[PwnageFoU]

i lold

[thomandy]

Norwegian Scientists are shocked someone even calls this News! Life at this range is very conmen, and if they had gone even deeper they would have found even more life! Before you claim this as a mistaken comment, do the research, and you will find that this video is actually misinforming the public!!!

[nencsm]

fake,

[theplaidmonkey]

that shrimp has nice bewbs

[Chibicho]

+1 internet to you

RULE34 on shrimp

[BADFISHHHHHH]

LOL WHAT!!??

[NaruChick101]

I think their point is not that 'OMG THERE IS LIFE UNDER ICE! LIKE RLY!' i mean seals swim under ice so duh things can. The point is how FAR it is under the ice, since no light or heat gos down that far/

----

But dont bite me if you disagree, this is a guess, dont acuse me of claiming stuff. Thats just what i got from the video. =P

[teatime90]

@NaruChick101 yeh 600 feet. fascinating :D

[coffey3c]

@NaruChick101 Lots of thing swim under ice, but only as far as they can hold their breaths! If openings close up, and they are too far from open water, they drown. Shrimp on the other hand, weeell... they sort of live there. We are sure that no light and very little heat don't mean no life. The fresh water lakes under Antarctic ice is about the purest water there is. They had stuff growing in them.

[blackrowstones]

seals don't swim 600 ft under the ice! there point is they believe there is a trapped water pocket under the ice and if this creature is living in it it could be ancient sealife back when there wasn't alot of salt in ocean.if so what else is down there?

[JakeAlewel]

They were expireamenting for a mission for a below ice mission of europa

[florencelovme]

I thought NASA scientists explore the astronomical stuff - what were they doing exploring the arctic ice?!

[Catarinaxx]

how to avoid the world to collapse? like you know, the if the ice melts we are in big trouble.

[roflcoopter88]

doomsday bunker

[DarkPhoenixBlood]

by understanding our own planet, we have a chance to better understand other planets.

[mimwo]

tangloppe! YAAY :D

[bybrooke]

it's a fuckin shrimp.

[rockametal]

Fake and Gay

[XXX007Gaming]

WTF

[RyoZzani]

I am sorry, but I have inform you, that these news wouldnt be published in such a way, if they they were found 30 years ago..

So.. There are thousand similar species to this one, but this is a new one, and it's specific, because it's found under the place, where even light can't come.. so, you and your Norway, can put the head down, and admitt, that you have never heard for this before.. neither anyone here..

[qzaktrdobaraba]

i discovered shrimp in my toilet

[fenix611]

what is that black thing on the ice wall

[WOWjman713]

oh wow,a shrimp!,omg!

-.-

who cares...

[TheCoCkTa1l]

i wonder how would it taste with some salt and lemon juice

[crijevitis]

Lucky bastard

[Skoettemand]

Shrimps r tasteh!1!!

[hunhistory]

wow!

[K1ll3r8331]

the shrimp probably took a wrong turn somewhere

[jull444]

holy fuck, a shrimp!!!!! never seen that before..?

[KpEMuKoBcu]

NASA dosn't know shit

[hellzBrother]

really fascinating :D

[Geetardudes]

i bet that must taste good dayuum

[myfreetime123]

Omg you guys a shrimp its SUCH a BIG deal Im so FASCINATED

[craioveanu95]

well kinda' creepy but it demonstrates that there are microscopic creatures in that water so the shrimp can survive. what's next? a moon colony?

[darkspirit581]

yap its a surprise.Specially if you think about the foodchain.

[zachice]

Did he say ice shit

[Runazarag]

hmm

i wonder if simmilar creatures might live on Europa or on Mars

[MajkeTiTvoje]

anyone for shrimp fishing on antartica?

[flacapauv]

WOW :)

[chich234]

This news for newbies. Old stuff.

[damn1mgood]

looks delicious

[hentaiby]

[xicoraul]

wtf

[21JuAnK12]

i dont nderstand

[AlexSerba]

No way ! that's a SEAMUNKY :D

[veni0the0big0one]

why the hell did they place a camera in there at the first place?

cause of the o so whitey ice-walls?? o.ô

definitely photoshopped :D

[Thegangsta2223]

i hate how youtube puts these annoying commercials up on the videos

[transtlantic]

shrimp: "fuck.... humans! we are dead."

[93394348]

cute..it hugged the cable....whats up with the walls?

[pappamalene]

wtf

[kuciaotopi]

who doesn't like shrimps?

[NoGripRacingGTR2]

I like muslims, there nice people.

[toxic996]

wow!

[TheBumbleBunny]

Kinda cute !

[mantas91]

yay lets eat it

[wa3wa3]

give it some time.......it will be the most expansive dish!!!!!!!

[ResidentEvil1749]

parece un portal xD

[c12mna]

Hmmm yummy !!

[awansarmad]

smile shrimpy .... u r on youtube !!

[TopaZProductions]

Can anyone tell me what NASA is doing in Antarctica, they're supposed to be going up, not down!

[Grefins999]

so are there also kind of shrimps in mars ?

[awansarmad]

i wana go there....

[PedroGuedes747]

Thumbs up for the shrimpy :D

[pareskotos]

I wana eat it.

[MrRocker453]

Pokemon!! Hahahah!

[kristofferlc]

The news in this story isn't the creature, it's that it's been spotted at that place.

As the comments in the end says, if that creature is there, there's more life to support it's existence.

A creature that are able to survive survive in that waters isn't amazing, water goes to 0 to -5 degrees or so, then it becomes ice, depending on the depth.

[yakumochan13]

its a rare pokemon!!!

gotta catch them all!!

[DarkFrostX]

its a pokemon

[XxBoys03xX]

LOL !! a PoKeMON .. xD

[HSLakaAL]

i ain't sure whether it's been answered but

what's the black net-like thing on the sides?

[desurgeon]

@HSLakaAL I think it is just the edge of the ice. They had to drill down and the walls are not smooth. I think it really is just the way the light is hitting the ice.

[radovest]

In Norway shrimp discovers you. (fail?)

[lordnecro82]

fake!

[SwazyFinesse]

I think itz time to make my stomach GLOW!

[audiz94]

its something we in norway calls a "tangloppe"

it lives in seaweed at the wateredge

[xXZombiFreakXx]

@audiz94 så du er norsk? x) waesome! :p

ja det ligner litt på en tangloppe men sammtidi ikke. tanglopper på en plass som det.. lite sannsynlig, men man veit aldri!

[Are567]

I belive the right translation is "reke"

Tangloppe is much smaller.

[TopaZProductions]

er det en tangloppe da?

[boellen900]

haha, et nice reply :D

[Yoooern]

Tror ikke det er en tangloppe :/

[DKjapanesefreak]

det ligner sku da ik en tangloppe? fanme den første jeg har set, som der er gul XD

[TheJJdk]

@audiz94 It's also something we call a "tanglope" ind Denmark...

[camo999999999]

@audiz94 Ah yeah Tanglopper findes også I denmark!!

[aors123]

@audiz94 Gjør vi? o_o

[seventrebec]

haha tangloppe .P FEDT NOK

[Maruzzolith]

"Tanglopper" in Denmark are way smaller than shrimp. Don't think you can compare this one with a "tangloppe"

[dragefyr]

@audiz94 Den er lidt for stor til at være en tangloppe O_O

[afonflip]

tangloppe præcis, ikke noget specielt at se her ..

[LookMw2Hack]

are you from norway ? O_o

[theloveinsummer]

wow o.O ; is a sepecial type of shrimp ?

[hubertfable]

later that day the shrimp om nom noms the cable and the electricity flowing through it accidentally activated its monster genes and it got bigger and bigger and ate the crew on the surface.

[TTH316]

@hubertfable LOL LOL LOL LOL hilariously funny... but what a tragedy :P

[denzilj]

lol. that wud be cool

[Malegnius]

There's a race of aliens that secretely live underground in Antarctica.

[ZbassDJ]

Insanity Prawn Boy!

[Kaddler]

PONYOOO

[mbchere]

I don't get it.. so they drill the hole, and then what, lower a camera down? shouldn't the shrimp have swum down there after they drilled it then, or am I missing something?

[R4Zy3L]

OMG A FUCKING SHRIMP!

Now we can die happy...

[BizarreWorks]

Shrim was like "finally after looong and tiring trip I finaly reached spot where are no enemies...Wait what the fu*k is this?? Humans? Noooo...."

[aHGirlL]

the shrimp is so cute

[malaysia2111]

What in its?

[atombombspeedster]

that little shrimp looks like its having a whale of a time

[Sorrythatusirnam]

I worry about the eventual bacteries and germs they could bring into this untouched, isolated water, and thus destroying an incredible ecosystem.

[BlueTropX]

In soviet russia, Shrimp finds you!

[ReallyPsilly]

YES!

[Tremleypt]

good

[Alexxx14a]

Why Scientists descover a new species? no!

New species is discover scientist

[ser710]

I don't understand what you're trying to say.

[Pissonyew]

I just got a craving for shrimp jambalaya

[killpath]

.. can we eat it?

[carlsononly]

Ladies and Gentleman, You're all looking at one of the species who will survive if we all drown :D

[xcorezz]

faaaaakeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!­!!!

[krizzygoesrawr1]

its real, we norwegians has known this for 30 years, retard

[TheBumbleBunny]

@krizzygoesrawr1 True !
