The Ultimate Shrimp! eeks...

[Lionheart]

Hey all,

How about a Shrimp nearly a yard (meter) long!? yes....

One attached itself to a small deep ocean robot, probably at 8400 feet depth. The 'thing' isnt actually in the shrimp family, more like a bug known to be on the dry land, but very small. This was HUGE...!

One person commented, "Mmmmm.... That looks apetizing" Most of the others grossed out at the sight of it.

More here, with a photo.

That looks like something the Cajuns would drag out the crawfish boiling pot for!

[TARPSBird]

Jeez, that's hideous - looks like a cross between a lobster,a cockroach and a centipede.

I'd still eat it! :icon_lol: wheres them Cajuns and their cooking pot ?

Did this appear before or after they started the Hadron Collider? Shades of the 50's sci-fi B movies.

~rotfl!~ Yeah, they did finally fire that beast up successfully recently. Blame it on the Higg's boson.

Reminds me of the movie 'District 9'.

Could it be that they crash landed here? lol

Yep, if it swims, it can be a meal in many different ways, too! Just ask Forrest Gump's friend, Bubba !:mixedsmi:

[Tako_Kichi]

Reminds me of one of Hagrid's Blast Ended Skrewt's! :icon_lol:

more for me then :icon_lol: as i said i'll eat anything... that on a nice bed of rice, after being cooked lobster style in boiling water and drizzled with some lemon Juice, and a glass of wine to go with it i'm sure would be an enjoyable meal...

[Animal]

Send that beast back to the pits of hell from which it spawned!

[MudMarine]

I agree with Bill!! That thing was in the "District 9" movie? YUUUUKKKK!!:icon_lol:

[Cazzie]

Why does that look like some rubber-suited monster from a B-movie?

It does look fake to me, no matter how true it may be.

Anyhow, I don't like seafood except for fish! But for those that do, the meat in the tail of that beast could feed a village! Make a hell of Jambalaya Willy.

So what are you going to do after you have eaten it and have grown to 50' tall running around in a diaper with the military chasing you? :bump:

[Matt Wynn]

We'll get him over here and send him to Washington,DC. Then he can drop a big poop on Congress for us. ;)

Looks like a nice light snack to me. Better lookin eats than some of the other stuff swimmin around in the ocean. :rolleyes: ;)
