This is part 2 of my video about most amazing deep sea creatures! See more on part 1 & 3! :D
vampire squid (Vampyroteuthis infernalis), a unique squid species because it also has octopus characteristics. it has a body like octopus. but it has more than 8 tentacles, so it's a squid, not an octopus.

frilled shark (Chlamydoselachus anguineus), a prehistoric shark, it surprised many animals expert when 1 specimen was discovered in Japan. (you can search the video on youtube). sadly it died after being caught.

pelagic octopus (Ocythoe tuberculata), also known as the Football octopus, the only known ovoviviparous cephalopod species

giant isopod, (Bathynomus giganteus), crustaceans related to the shrimp and crabs,

lion mane's jellyfish,(Cyanea capillata) the largest jellyfish species ever, and the 2nd largest invertebrate after giant/colossal squid. the record for its body is 2,5 meters and the record for its tentacle length is 36 meters, making it's the longest marine animal, even longer than our biggest animal, blue whale.

blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus), one of the weirdest fish species. Its relative lack of muscle makes its body shape looks so weird, it looks as if its body shape is so flexible.

biacuit sea star (Tosia australis), well its body shape is like a biscuit.

collosal squid (Mesonychoteuthis hamilton), well, who doesn't know this? the largest invertebrate ever, it's also the largest squid ever caught, just discovered in 2007

scaled worm (Polynoidae), a worm species with scales

gulper eel (Saccopharyngiformes), a weird fish, lack several bones, big mouth (compared to its body size), it has no scales, pelvic fins, or swim bladder. Due to the gulper eel's specialised body shape, it is a very poor swimmer and relies on the luminescent organ at the tip of its tail to attract prey

scaly dragonfish (Stomias boa boa), looks very scary, but its size is actually quite small, 20cm, it has long scaly body shape with scary face, that's why it resembles a dragon

piglet squid, (Helicocranchia pfefferi), one of the cutest sea creatures ever, it looks like a pig, especially the 'nose'. not a real nose, just because its body shape is like that.

spookfish (Dolichopteryx longipes), it is the only vertebrate known to employ a mirror, as opposed to a lens

fangtooth fish (Anoplogaster cornuta), while understandably named for their disproportionately large, fang-like teeth, scary face and unapproachable visage, fangtooths are actually small and unharmful to humans, maximum length of just 16 centimeters.
