Colossal Squid

[Dad's Note: In this post, Bridger liveblogs a Discovery Channel documentary called "Colossal Squid."]

This one is for the giant squid.

I been watching this show about a giant squid. Oh, a giant squid came and striked and made these bubbles that said what the show is called, then you see it's eyes. Wow, they're in Antarctica? How can a squid survive when it's so freezing? They accidentally caught a colossal squid on that boat. I guess that's bigger than a giant squid.

Ok, now they just brought in the fish that the squid was eating. Blood all over the metal floor- they're going to have to get a new metal floor. They got this Doctor guy on here and they say he's a squidoholic. I'm a dinosaurholic and a squidoholic. Did you know that Squidward on SpongeBob isn't a squid at all? He's an octopus. I don't know why he's named Squidward.

Now they froze the squid and brought into a lab so they can cut it up. That colossal squid has a tiger claw in his suction cup that turns all the way around.

Oh, touch the tentacles- great idea. You know you're going to get your fingers stuck on those tentacles.

W0w, they only live for a year and a half. Small life.

This guy's been looking for a colossal squid for 20 years? That's a long time.

Now the scientist is showing us these gill things and saying that's not blood there because a squid's blood is actually blue. Cool.
