If that methane ever warmed up, we'd all be f*cked.

You don't have to be dull not to understand something, you have to be ignorant to belittle someones point of view though. Way to go douchebag.

would that be the equivalent to living on a hostile planet?

It may just look like mud, but remember, this is life that lives on METHANE.
This could be what it was like when life first formed.

Perhaps a running commentary . Or some explanation of what part is interesting and noteworthy and why it is so would be in order for lay people like me.
We too would like to find out more of why and how life is able to flourish in such depths and the unique ecology it represents.
Help us do so. Hope to see a new one soon!
Hi eannadarcy, New Scientist wouldn't put out a fake video; it wouldn't do our reputation any good! It just happens to be rather good footage (taken by researchers from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research, New Zealand, and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute, US). Thanks for watching!
